Topic on Skin talk:Citizen

Style is not used by Citizen, but solution is provided.

Hey all! I remember the old version used to have an envelope icon beside mailto links; however, now it just shows up as a regular external link.

Is this feature removed? If so, is there a way to still keep it?

That is possibly a part of the MW core styles, I will look into adding it back.

It looks like it is taken out from core.

However, you can implement that through your MediaWiki:Common.css:

/* Add the external link icon to malito links */
.mw-parser-output a[href^="mailto:"].external {
	background: url( your icon link ) no-repeat right;
	/* @noflip */
	padding-right: 18px;
}

Hmm, it still seems to be in the source, but I'm not sure why it's not working.

Will try the solution given. Thanks a lot!

Citizen does not use core styles at all, it seems that the latest Vector has also moved away from that as well.

I see. Thanks a lot for the clarification!
