Introduction

The {{#imageLink}} parser function allows you to link internal images to external URLs or internally to other wiki pages.

Usage

Once installed, users of your wiki will be able to use imageLink on any page. The syntax is as follows:

{{#imageLink:<image>|<url or page title>|<alt text>}}

Where:

• <image> is the name of an uploaded image file, for example "some-picture.jpg" or "Screenshot.png"
• <url or page title> is either an external URL of the form protocol://path/to/resource
• Note: only protocols returned by MediaWiki's wfUrlProtocols() method are accepted for external links.
• <alt text> is optional title text to display when a user hovers over the image.

Examples

For example, to link an image called mahalo-logo.png to mahalo.com, you could use:

{{#imageLink:mahalo-logo.png|http://www.mahalo.com}}

-or-

{{#imageLink:mahalo-logo.png|http://www.mahalo.com|Mahalo.com}}

Where the latter will display "Mahalo.com" when the user hovers over the image.
