5The plugin adds a _Delete page_ button to DokuWiki's
6[PageMenu](https://www.dokuwiki.org/devel:menus).
7
8This provides a simpler, quicker and more intuitive way for users to
9delete wiki pages, compared to the
10[documented page deletion method](https://www.dokuwiki.org/page#delete_a_page).

14If JavaScript is enabled
15and the current [Template](https://www.dokuwiki.org/template)
16is supported by the plugin,
17a confirmation dialog will be displayed prior to deleting the page.

46## Compatibility
47
48This plugin has been tested with the following DokuWiki releases,
49and should work with later versions as well.
50- 2018-04-22b "Greebo"
51- 2020-07-29 "Hogfather"
52
53Earlier releases are not supported.
54
55The plugin has been tested with the default
56[DokuWiki](https://www.dokuwiki.org/template:dokuwiki) and the
57[Bootstrap3](https://www.dokuwiki.org/template:bootstrap3)
58Templates.
59Other Templates should work as well, as long as they use the same markup for
60Page Tools; otherwise, the page will be deleted without confirmation.

72I first thought I could adapt
73[this old plugin](https://github.com/caillou/dokuwiki-plugin-delete)
74but I ended up restarting from scratch.
