 The sidebardirective is supplied by the sidebar plugin. This directive can specify a custom sidebar to display on the page,
overriding any sidebar that is displayed globally. If no custom sidebar content is specified, it forces the sidebar page to
be used as the sidebar, even if the global_sidebarssetting has been
used to disable use of the sidebar page by default. examples[[!sidebar  content="""
This is my custom sidebar for this page.
\[[!calendar pages="posts/*"]]
"""]]
[[!sidebar ]]

commentThe commentdirective is supplied by the
comments plugin. There should
be one comment directive in each source file with extension._commentor._comment_pending, and the directive should not
appear anywhere else. Comments are normally created via the web,
in which case ikiwiki automatically creates a suitable._commentfile. Wiki administrators can also commit comment files to the version
control system directly: they should be named starting with
the comments_pagename config option (usually comment_)
and ending with._comment, for instancecomment_42._comment. Example: [[!comment  format=mdwn
username="foo"
subject="Bar"
date="2009-06-02T19:05:01Z"
content="""
Blah blah.
"""
