The current version only crops the first page and discards the rest.

Re: [NTG-context] Current ConTeXt wiki
Hooray, we have a new stable! 1. Probably we should refresh the wiki's cache of context PNG examples? Some examples contain commands like \contextversionnumber, which are now stuck on 20111008 until their MD5 changes. Also, examples might change (or break) when compiled with the new stable; best to make that happen ourselves. Otherwise, a contributor might make an unrelated change to the example, and the example will unexpectedly change or break, and the contributor will think it's due to what he/she did. Patrick, do you know if forcing recompilation (immediate, or on page load) is doable? Perhaps deleting a PNG wil force it to be regenerated on page load? If it's non-trivial, I suppose we can leave it. 2. Improvement to the PHP script: make the text returned in case of failed compilation contain a category tag like [[Category:Examples with errors]], so that we can have a hidden maintenance category of examples that don't compile. It would need to be added to the return strings in the lines that match /return.*error/; if someone can send me a current copy of wikitex.php I can take care of this. (Also, I'd like to have a current copy so I can update http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_wiki:Context_tag_implementation ) 3. On running the stable and/or the beta Hans wrote: isn't the wiki running the beta then? No, it runs the latest stable. It might be possible to have a beta installation, too -- then users could specify context mode=beta -- but we'd have to look at forcing recompilation once a week (or so) when we update the beta. Depending on Patrick's answer on the feasibility of forcing recompilation, I could have a look at implementing this.
