Extension talk:ImageLink/LQT Archive 1

I wish this was described better.
 * Look at the 'See Also' section on the page. Jean-Lou Dupont 19:48, 4 May 2007 (UTC)


 * The See Also points to BlueCortex, where it was a Pareser Function. Here it is a php extension and has ZERO documentation. :( --98.199.66.118 16:16, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

quality
if i use   and    for a 370px x 560px image, than is the quality with imagelink worse. -- a user 22:39, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * The extension does not modify the parameters; it just passes them to the HTML element. So, it is not the extension's fault. Jean-Lou Dupont 23:52, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Is there a way to force the extension to scale down the image as usually done by MediaWiki? If I use thumb|200px MediaWiki creates a thumb-image so that the user doesn't have to download the whole image, but only the thumb. That doesn't work with the extension. Those small images cost less bandwidth & look nicer --217.233.218.140 18:13, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

_imagelink_ tags left in final page
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I can't quite get this extension to work. I've grabbed both StubManager.php and this extension's files from SVN (r723); they're installed (MediaWiki 1.10.0) and show up properly in Special:Version, but the extension doesn't work. For example, the following


 * 

will lead to this in the output:


 * _imagelink_200708300_/imagelink_

Curiously, specifying a non-existant image will cause a &lt;pre&gt; to be rendered instead (not that that really matters).

So... um, help? c.c I have no idea what could be going wrong here or how I should go about fixing it. Thanks! -- Schneelocke 20:50, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * the second argument must be a valid wiki page e.g. Category:Extension. In the example you gave above, you specified a URI address; this will not work. Jean-Lou Dupont 22:48, 30 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Ah, yeah - I misunderstood the "distinguish between local and interwiki URI" part last night. Blame it on it being too late in my timezone. ^_~ Nevertheless, that being said, the same thing happens with a local page, too; and FWIW, http://www.example.com could be the name of a local page, anyway (e.g. ). -- Schneelocke 08:08, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
