Manual talk:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle

what would be a use case for this setting set to true? NSK Nikolaos S. Karastathis 23:18, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * iPod, among other things. -- Skiz zerz  00:39, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * No, for iPod, $wgAllowDisplayTitle = true would be sufficient.
 * For concrete use cases you'd have to ask the dozens of people who asked about this on the #mediawiki channel. I suppose people like to be able to control the display title completely -- especially, to shorten it. So the page Manual:Foo/Bar could show the title "Bar". Another use case would be the ability use characters in the title that are illegal in page names: the page called Pre-Tag could show the title &lt;pre&gt;. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 07:42, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
