I got rid of the template placeholders for email and the footer, and set the registration page template to match the rest. Of course, I agree that we need the template editor gadget.

Changing the template of the /register/ path is as simple as pie. This was the command that I ran, showing some of the power of the configuration hooks:

sudo perl /usr/local/src/gadgets/misc/admin/add_config.pl -g ATemplate -p /register/ -key template_dir -v '/wiki-template/'

That says set the template_dir value to /wiki-template for the path /register/ for the ATemplate gadget (which we call into to display the header, footer and nav pages).

I agree. Hopefully this will be a touch better.
