How it works

  • The plugin uses a new feature called pluggable renderers
  • DokuWiki's parser outputs the parsed syntax with the use of so called renderers
  • The S5 plugin inherits from the default XHTML renderer and adds Eric Meyer's CSS and JavaScript Magic

Customizing

  • Choose from seven premade themes or put your own in the template ui directory
