Requirements
- This template requires MindTouch version: 9.02 or greater.
How do I install it?
- Create a template, call it "Template:AutoSubscribe" (or rename as you desire). You must have UNSAFECONTENT permission for this to work.
- Create a "DekiScript" block on the template page (use the "Style" menu in the editor")
- Copy the code from the end of this page and paste it into the DekiScript block. To copy, click "expand source", then mouse over the top right corner of the source code, and click the "view source" button. This will pop up a window with the source code. Select all, then copy to clipboard.
- Make sure there isn't an extra blank paragraph after the DekiScript block! Do this every time you edit!!!
- Save.
A quick note about the examples on this page
For all the examples on this page, the code is shown before the working example. The code is shown with the syntax extension, and looks like this:
AutoSubscribe()
This means that the actual code on the page should be enclosed in a DekiScript block. If you want to copy the code from this page, then use the same procedure as described in steps 2-4 above.
How do I use it?
Simply call this template somewhere on your page.
