Tracked in Phabricator
Task T271439

Using the Popups extension MW 1.31. Headings (level 2/3) are displayed with equal signs left and right. Is there a way not to show them?

Here is an image:

I tried adding this in TextExtracts\includes\ExtractFormatter.php but it did not seem to work.

$text = preg_replace( "={2,}(.*?)={2,}", "", $text );

Surrounding the headings (found on the template) with <div class="noexcerpt"> , did partially solve the problem but resulted in the mobile version (MinervaNeu) headings not being expandable/collapsible.

Do you have a link to the actual page where this happens?

I added the following in ExtractsRemoveClasses in TextExtracts\extension.json and it seemed to fix it.

"h2",

"h3",

I would love to know more about your setup. See, every Wikipedia article starts with a level 2 headline. Why don't we have this issue, but you have it? What's the difference?

Utilizing the configuration is a nice idea. However, you should not edit extension.json but add $wgExtractsRemoveClasses[] = 'h2' ;$wgExtractsRemoveClasses[] = 'h3'; to your LocalSettings.php.

Thanks so much for the feedback. The difference may be that the level 2 headings are declared in the templates. Level 3 are in page text.

The template is indeed the reason. Thanks a lot for the follow-up! I was now able to replay the issue locally. I created phab:T271439 to discuss possible fixes.

Good job, Thiemo!
