Manual:Non-clickable Images

This feature has been deprecated and should not be used with current versions of MediaWiki.

This feature was deprecated (or possibly removed completely) in version 1.14.

See option link in Images for more information.

Warning

The following involves editing Linker.php, a core MediaWiki file. It is a very simple procedure, but if you feel at all uncomfortable editing core files, do not do so. Make sure to create a backup copy of Linker.php before making the suggested edit.

How to

Open the file Linker.php from your includes folder and go to the function makeImageLink2. Find the lines:

 if ( !$thumb ) {
 			$s = $this->makeBrokenImageLinkObj( $title );
 		} else {
 			$s = $thumb->toHtml( array(
 				'desc-link' => true,
 				'alt' => $fp['alt'],
 				'valign' => isset( $fp['valign'] ) ? $fp['valign'] : false ,
 				'img-class' => isset( $fp['border'] ) ? 'thumbborder' : false ) );
 		}

Change the value of 'desc-link' from true to false so that it now appears as

 if ( !$thumb ) {
 			$s = $this->makeBrokenImageLinkObj( $title );
 		} else {
 			$s = $thumb->toHtml( array(
 				'desc-link' => false,
 				'alt' => $fp['alt'],
 				'valign' => isset( $fp['valign'] ) ? $fp['valign'] : false ,
 				'img-class' => isset( $fp['border'] ) ? 'thumbborder' : false ) );
 		}

The images in your wiki should now be non-clickable.
