Topic on Extension talk:Title Icon

Hi Cindy, another feature I am missing is to be able to define a link target for the icon. As I heavily use page forms and other extensions that use the category pages for configuration, I usually try not to use the category pages too much for the user's purposes. Instead I add custom pages with dynamic content (ask queries of SMW).

So I'd like to be able to have the title icon for "People" defined in Category:People, but link to a page called "People".

Could be done with something like

{{#set:Title Icon Link=People}} 

and the property Title Icon Link being of type page

Good idea.

Also, I'm considering changing the extension to use page properties (built into MediaWiki core) rather than Semantic MediaWiki to store the title icon information, so Title Icon would not require installation of another extension. Thoughts?

Always a good idea to minimize dependencies. But also always appreciated to support SMW if its available (like in CommentsStreams)...

Yes, I could always fall back to SMW if it is available.
