is a skin driven by cascading stylesheets shipping 12 predefined styles
(themes) and 11 variations that can be applied to each of it. Most of these are
inspired by
. In addition a
as it is known from
the TWiki/Cairo release. While offering a decent appearance
offers an increased
TWiki usability and customizability in several respects to quickly accomplish a
personalized wiki experience.
. It is used at the
(NATS) of the University of Hamburg, Germany.
. The
and provides the infrastructure to get, set and display the skin style that
is currently active as well as rendering different content depending on the skin state.
This, for example, allows to switch the sidebar navigation from the left
to the right with a single click.
The underlying templates that generate the TWiki pages are arranged in a flexible and
manageable way to facilitate easy "skin mix-in", that is overriding specific parts of
the templates by using the
: a search+go box that combines advanced search with the GO feature of TWiki.
Compared to the standard
NatSearch is trying to maximize usability
and minimizing workflow disruption. In addition, NatSearch can be customized
on an application level to specify the scope of search (using include/exclude rules)
as well as the appearance of listed search hits.
Optionally, all email addresses can be obfuscated by use of javascript. Email
links are still clickable while automatic email extraction is hampert.
NatLogon: An independent implementation of an html login page is provided for
maximal compatibility with old TWiki releases. This is similar to the
TemplateLogin authentication mechanism available since TWiki-4. There are
usability differences between TemplateLogin and NatLogon trying
to ease the authorization-authentication workflow.
All offsite links are marked and a nice icon is added. Clicking on them will
allways open an extra window.
