Extension talk:LinkSearch

Suggestion
Hi, i think will be much better if we have a special page to show all external links that the wiki articles has, without be necessary to search. And in front of link, show the description of the link, if has. What do you think? Lleoliveirabr 22:25, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

It would also be fine to search for "*search*"89.52.178.42 10:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Bugs?
Searching for links with https (and probably all other protocols than http) is failing: if there are more list elements than the standard limit (50) allows, all continuative links ('next' and other limits) lead to an empty page with no results (apart from the LinkSearch standard form).

Leaving the protocol apart in the search term, does find only http links -- but that's probably thought as a function? Allthough it seems to produce the bug: other protocols are not passed within the continuing links. (Ah, you ment this with "Currently only 'http' links are supported", right?) --192.108.76.244 15:20, 5 October 2007 (UTC) (Martin)

Search syntax
Would it be reasonable to have "*mediawiki.org" return the same results as "*.mediawiki.org"? Jlerner 16:05, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Special:Linksearch
The Special Page is listed in Special:Version, but when I call the URL Special:Linksearch I get a blank page as if the extension was not properly installed. I'm on 1.8.2. I've also changed what Bug6800 reads about  $wgSpecialPages['Linksearch'] = array ('SpecialPage', 'Linksearch');  Solution? Thanks, --Subfader, 18:03, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

 * I have other extensions installed and the php include path is working fine though. The zero support for this extension "used on one or more of Wikimedia's wikis" is freakin' awesome! --Subfader 15:18, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
