Action Modes aka. do Modes

List of possible action modes (may be incomplete yet) with their descriptions. These actions are usually caused by supplying an according ?do= parameter to the doku.php dispatcher. The knowledge of the current mode may be useful for making templates more dynamic or write action plugins. The current can be accessed in PHP via the global $ACT variable and in JavaScript via the global JSINFO['ACT'] variable.

The action modes are handled in the Action Router.

The description at this page should reflect the state of the last released version of DokuWiki. Changes between versions (very rare) can be inspected by comparing the code of releases at https://github.com/dokuwiki/dokuwiki/releases.
