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 edit
Caching 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]}}
