The 2025-04-24 release includes significant changes to styling and code. While it has been tested, there may be some bugs that I have missed. If you find anything that’s not working right, please file an issue.

The right sidebar can be applied by creating a normal wiki page called “rightsidebar”. Go to http://your-wiki.com/doku.php?id=rightsidebar, click “Create this page”, edit the page, save, and you're done. That's it, your saved changes will appear in your right sidebar.

The following pages can be either html files in the root of the template or a page in the namespace. Namespace pages take priority.

• topheader : content to include above the navbar
• header : content include below the navbar but above the page content
• contentheader : content to include above the page content
• contentfooter : content to include below the page content
• sidebarheader : content to include above the left sidebar content
• sidebarfooter : content to include below the left sidebar content
• rightsidebarheader : content to include above the right sidebar content
• rightsidebarfooter : content to include below the right sidebar content
• footer : content to include in the footer
• bottomfooter : content to include below the footer

The following images can be used to replace content in the template. Images can be in `TEMPLATE_ROOT/images/`, `TEMPLATE_ROOT/themes/THEME/images/`, or in the namespace. Images can be either png, jpg, gif or svg.

• logo : site logo in the navbar
• breadcrumb-prefix breadcrumb prefix
• breadcrumb-sep breadcrumb seperator
• hero hero image for hero element

• title : The hero title is sourced from the page title. The page title is removed from the page content
• subtitle : Pages can set the subtitle by inserting ~~hero-subtitle TEXT~~ in the page content
• image : The hero image is sourced from an image named hero in the current or parental namespace. Namespace searching can be confined by the includePagePropagate setting. Pages can also override the image by inserting ~~hero-image URL~~ in the page content. DokuWiki and external URLs are supported
• colors : Colors can be overridden by including ~~hero-colors BACKGROUND_COLOR HERO_TITLE_COLOR HERO_SUBTITLE_COLOR BREADCRUMB_TEXT_COLOR BREADCRUMB_HOVER_COLOR~~. You do not need to include all the color options. Use 'initial' to skip a color override

Namespaces can also apply the above hero settings in child pages by including the above settings in a page named theme.

If the page title is not being displayed in the Hero, make sure that you have correctly set the DokuWiki useheading setting.

Mikio now supports hiding elements using the ~~hide-parts (parts)~~ macro. Each element within the hide-parts macro is required to be separated by spaces. Currently, the following parts are supported:

• topheader : content above the navbar
• navbar : the main navigation bar
• header : content below the navbar but above the page content
• hero : the page hero bar
• contentheader : content above the page content
• contentfooter : content below the page content
• sidebarheader : content above the left sidebar content
• sidebarfooter : content below the left sidebar content
• rightsidebarheader : content above the right sidebar content
• rightsidebarfooter : content below the right sidebar content
• footer : content in the footer
• bottomfooter : content below the footer

To hide the topheader, navbar and hero, you would use the macro ~~hide-parts topheader navbar hero~~

• Mikio includes an icon engine that allows you to include icons in your pages by using <icon OPTIONS> in your content
• If the icon tag conflicts with another plugin, you can change the tag from icon to a user set value in the settings
• By default, Mikio enables FontAwesome 4 but also includes FontAwesome 5, Elusive 2 and Bootstrap Icons, which can be enabled by uncommenting their inclusions in /icons/icons.php

Users can also add their own icon sets to the template. Supported icon sets can either be webfonts or individual files (such as a SVG library). Instructions can be found in the /icons/icons.php file.

Themes should be placed in the themes directory in their own directory. LESS files are supported.

Mikio now supports dark mode! When the user prefers a dark theme, or has selected dark mode, the html tag will set the theme dataset to `theme-dark`; else it will be `theme-light`.

You can detect this in CSS using:

:root[data-theme="theme-dark"] {
  // CSS selectors here
}

or in Javascript using:

const html = document.querySelector('html');
if(html.dataset.theme == 'theme-dark') {
  // ...
}

The Mikio Plugin is also available to add bootstrap 4 style + more elements to DokuWiki pages.

If the plugin is installed, the Template Styles Settings page will be expanded to allow directly editing the plugin element styling.

• sidebar-title : Text for the collapsable block in the sidebar
• tools-menu : Text for the combined tools DokuWiki menu title
• home : Text for the breadcrumb home title

This is really a modern, complete template, with very high flexibility and customizability. (Look at those options to customize for style.ini!) Also it's the first template I have seen with “Hero element” support. And there are quite a few positions to insert included pages as page/content header/footers. I appreciate the great work of the developer. — milchflasche 2020-07-30 03:42

I have used this template in my two language learning sites: http://taigi123.ga/ http://hakka123.ga/ (written in some East Asian languages and Hanzi script) — milchflasche 2020-09-17 04:58
