You've loaded an old revision of the document! If you save it, you will create a new version with this data.

This plugin redirects the current page to another page after a stipulated number of seconds. It plugin requires the user to have JavaScript enabled in order to work to its fullest. However, a redirect link will still be displayed even without JavaScript.
===== Installation =====

Search and install the plugin using the [[plugin:extension|Extension Manager]]. Refer to [[:Plugins]] on how to install plugins manually.

The default pause pause length ( ''seconds'' ) and the minimum allowable pause length ( ''minSeconds'' ) before the redirect can be edited in the configuration manager.   See [[#syntax|below]] for further details.

===== Syntax =====

You can put the GOTO string anywhere in the document, but it probably makes the most sense to put it at the top.

~~GOTO>wiki:syntax~~

The above will force the document to redirect to the [[:wiki:syntax]] page after the default amount of seconds. You can change the default number of seconds in the Configuration Manager.

It is possible to link to a subheading of the page:
  ~~GOTO>wiki:syntax#subheading~~
  
You can change the number of seconds on the fly like so:
  ~~GOTO>wiki:syntax?15~~

This will redirect the page after a 15 second pause.

By default, users can't set the pause length to be faster than two seconds, but this can be changed by editing the plugin. The reason for the minimum pause length is that if it's too fast, it becomes difficult to hit the 'Edit Page' button before the redirect happens. If you can't edit the page, then it becomes tricky to remove the redirect.

===== Issues =====

* The viewer's web browser must have JavaScript enabled in order to automatically redirect.
  * Currently, the plugin only works correctly for internal links.

===== Installation =====

Search and install the plugin using the [[plugin:extension|Extension Manager]]. Refer to [[:Plugins]] on how to install plugins manually.

The default pause length and the minimum pause length can be edited in the configuration manager.
