Manual:Externallinks table/fr

The externallinks table is where MediaWiki stores and tracks external links.

el_id
The primary key. Presently not used for anything, but will help with online schema changes.

el_from
The page id of the referring wiki page.

el_to
The actual URL itself. It is passed to the browser.

el_index
This is the same URL as  search-optimized: username and password information is stripped, and the other components are reversed for faster searching, so   becomes , which allows searches of the form 'Show all links pointing to *.example.com'.

el_index_60
This is el_index truncated to 60 bytes to allow for sortable queries that aren't supported by a partial index.

@todo Drop the default once this is deployed everywhere and code is populating it.
