I admit i have never tried it before. Now i did and it doesn't work for me. according to https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21278 and after reading through the source code i thought the syntax should be something like this. {{** [http://mydomain.com/gallery/ Photo gallery]}} But it didn't work out. It simply didn't show up. It would be very nice if Platonides could give us an example. Anyway i think the fact that the sidebar doesn't take care of $wgExternalLinkTarget is worth a bug report. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29533 _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
