So I've done some hacking to give you an idea of what I'm talking about (
See a screenshot).
The following was changed within my template (I use masa) to make this show up.
main.php (around line 112)
<?php } else { ?>
<div class="page">
<!-- wikipage start -->
<?php tpl_content()?>
<!-- wikipage stop -->
</div>
<!-- new content start -->
<div id='syntax_help'>
<h2>Common Syntax</h2>
[[ http://www.example.com | link text ]]
<ul><li>Link to a specific external URL while displaying different link text</li></ul>
[[ pagename | link text ]]
<ul><li>Link to a specific pagename while displaying different link text</li></ul>
[[ pagename:namespace ]]
<ul><li>Link to a specific namespace on pagename</li></ul>
[[ pagename:namespace | link text ]]
<ul><li>Link to a specific namespace on pagename while displaying different link text</li></ul>
((This is a footnote))
<ul><li>Create a footnote</li></ul>
* This is an unordered list item
<ul><li>Create an unordered list with the asterisk (*)</li></ul>
- This is an ordered list item
<ul><li>Create an ordered list with the hyphen (-)</li></ul>
</div>
<div id='plugins_help'>
<h2>Plugins available</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://wiki.splitbrain.org/plugin:gallery">Gallery</a></li>
<ul><li>[[ gallery>namespace ]]</ul></li>

<li><a href="http://wiki.splitbrain.org/plugin:keywords">Keywords</a></li>
<ul><li>{{keywords>word1 word2 wordN}}</ul></li>
</ul>
</div>
<!-- new content end -->
<?php } ?>
masa_design.css (at the bottom)
#syntax_help {
clear: both;
display: block;
width: 40%;
border: 1px dashed;
margin-left: 10px;
padding: 0 5px 0 15px;
float: left;
}
#plugins_help {
display: block;
border: 1px dashed;
width: 40%;
margin-right: 30px;
padding: 0 5px 0 15px;
float: right;
}
#plugins_help a:link {
text-decoration: underline;
}
#plugins_help a:visited {
text-decoration: underline;
}
Realistically, the plugins sections would be dynamic based upon the stored info about installed plugins. Secondly, the current placement shows up only when you are on the EDIT page, but it does also show up on the ADMIN page. I suppose it would best fit inside the tpl_content() function.
Thoughts?
