Change log / Release notes

2026-05-11 Add settings, made more robust, capture error and action messages

2026-0-25 First release

2024-08-18 Initial version

PmWikiPlus is configured to run early during PmWiki initialisation.
Priority is set to '101, meaning it runs after local/config.php, local/Group.Page.php, and local/Group.php, at the beginning of scripts/stdconfig.php.
This means PmWikiPlus will override settings in config.ptp.

Testing

Tested on two instances of PmWiki. To look into the internals of PmWikiPlus the directive ((:pmwikiplus argument:) is available.
