any other approaches?

Create templates as text files and copy-paste them after creating new wiki page.

hmm... not that i dislike pragmatic approaches in anyway.

i'd prefer to try this [[http://www.redmine.org/issues/3806]] but i need to preserve upgradability and never wrote a redmine plugin.

I agree this is pragmatic approach and I don't like it too, but there is no other solution by now.

if i just knew how to overwrite the function "initial_page_content(page)" which is defined in "lib/redmine/wiki_formatting/textile/helper.rb":

module Redmine
module WikiFormatting
module Textile
module Helper
def wikitoolbar_for(field_id)
...
def initial_page_content(page)
...

if i just knew that, i think i could make an init.rb file doing the trick.

/m

ruby must be a beautiful language if one would only know it.

this really did the trick for me:

1. follow the first two steps of this tutorial: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Plugin_Tutorial until you have a populated redmine_wiki_template directory.

2. edit init.rb like this:

Redmine::Plugin.register :redmine_wiki_template do
  name 'Redmine Wiki Template plugin'
  author 'markus'
  description 'This adds a Template to the Wiki'
  version '0.0.1'
  url 'http://example.com/path/to/plugin'
  author_url 'http://example.com/about'
end

module Redmine
  module WikiFormatting
    module Textile
      module Helper
        alias_method :orig_initial_page_content, :initial_page_content
        def initial_page_content(page)
          "{{>toc}}\nh1. #{@page.pretty_title}" 
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

it should be possible to dump all these other files but i don't dare. i don't want to put my success on danger :-) /m
