The AnchorHandler extension allows inserting <a>
anchor tags into wikitext. By default, it simply passes through the text within the <a>...</a>
tags. It can be configured to actually parse and convert the anchor tags to working links in certain namespaces. This is especially helpful when importing raw HTML into a wiki.
Installation
[edit]- Download and move the extracted
AnchorHandler
folder to yourextensions/
directory.
Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/AnchorHandler - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'AnchorHandler' );
- Configure as required.
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Configuration
[edit]$egAnchorNamespaces
Tells the extension to actually convert the anchor tags to links in the specified namespaces. Example:
$egAnchorNamespaces = [ NS_MAIN ];
- See this list of namespace constants.
