 &gt;&gt; The `.ikiwiki/transient` would suit this, but instead of saying &quot;tag_underlay&quot; or &quot;autoindex_underlay&quot; have &quot;use_transient_underlay&quot; or something like that?
 &gt;&gt; Or to make it more flexible, have just one option &quot;transient_underlay&quot; which is set to an absolute path, and if it is set, then one is using a transient-underlay.
 &gt;&gt; --&#91;&#91;KathrynAndersen&#93;&#93;

+&gt;&gt;&gt; What I had in mind was more like `tag_autocreate_transient =&gt; 1` or
+&gt;&gt;&gt; `autoindex_transient =&gt; 1`; you might conceivably want tags to be
+&gt;&gt;&gt; checked in but autoindices to be transient, and it&#39;s fine for each
+&gt;&gt;&gt; plugin to make its own decision. Going from that to one boolean
+&gt;&gt;&gt; (or just always-transient if people don&#39;t think that&#39;s too
+&gt;&gt;&gt; astonishing) would be trivial, though.
+&gt;&gt;&gt;
+&gt;&gt;&gt; I don&#39;t think relocating the transient underlay really makes sense,
+&gt;&gt;&gt; except for prototyping: you only want one, and `.ikiwiki` is as good
+&gt;&gt;&gt; a place as any (ikiwiki already needs to be able to write there).
+&gt;&gt;&gt;
+&gt;&gt;&gt; For &#91;&#91;plugins/contrib/album&#93;&#93; I think I&#39;d just make the photo viewer
+&gt;&gt;&gt; pages always-transient - you can always make a transient page
+&gt;&gt;&gt; permanent by editing it, after all.
+&gt;&gt;&gt;
+&gt;&gt;&gt; Do you think this approach has enough potential that I should
+&gt;&gt;&gt; continue to hack on it? Any thoughts on the implementation? --&#91;&#91;smcv&#93;&#93;
