Description:

Currently, there are two ways to create a page from a template:

  • Using the list of templates proposed when creating a new page
  • Using a crafted URL with a template parameter (e.g., AWM's add entry)
    But, an advanced user cannot create easily a form allowing less knowledgeable users to create pages with a pre-determined page template

Macro parameters

  • Default space
  • Template
  • is the iuser allowed to change the space

Result
The macro renders a form with the following fields:

  • A page title field
  • A "create page"

Note
Could be a replacement for the creable blog page form for instance
