The UrlGetParameters extension enables you to use and/or display the "GET" parameters of the URL, i.e. the query string, on the wiki page.
Installation
edit- Download and move the extracted
UrlGetParameters
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/UrlGetParameters - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'UrlGetParameters' );
- Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Usage
editCaching for the page you use this extension on should be disabled.
To display the value of a URL get parameter in your page, you might do this:
{{#urlget:parameter-name}}
Where parameter-name
is the name of the parameter whose value you want.
If the parameter is not found, the extension will result in nothing.
Alternatively, you can also specify a default value as follows:
{{#urlget:parameter-name|default-value}}
When the parameter parameter-name
is not available, then the value default-value
is returned.
If the URL contains parameters of the form "A[B]=C", you can display the value "C" in a similar way, by calling:
{{#urlget:A[B]}}
