Default

$wgRealnamesBlank
  • true
  • false
mw305 []
Do you want to show blank real names? This can make sense for append style but looks silly in reverse. The default false which shows a standard link instead.
$wgRealnamesLinkStyleBareName same as $wgRealnamesLinkStyle The style to use on links when realname is blank, as long as $wgRealnamesBlank === FALSE. Default is standard.
$wgRealnamesBareStyleBareName same as $wgRealnamesBareStyle The style to use on text when realname is blank, as long as $wgRealnamesBlank === FALSE. Default is false.
$wgRealnamesStyles array ['mystyle'] = '<span class="custom">$1$3$4</span>' Allows for the custom creation of style types that can then be assigned for link and bare styles. Usually to add custom text. You get 4 variables in your style:
  • $1 link start
  • $2 username
  • $3 real name
  • $4 link end

Ensure to use ' quotes around your style string instead of " quotes, so that the $x do not get evaluated.

$wgRealnamesLinkStyleSameName same as $wgRealnamesLinkStyle The style to use on links when username=realname, as long as $wgRealnamesSmart['same'] === TRUE. Default is standard.
$wgRealnamesBareStyleSameName same as $wgRealnamesBareStyle The style to use on text when username=realname, as long as $wgRealnamesSmart['same'] === TRUE. Default is false.
