Hello Fernando, If I understand your problem correctly, then you could achieve the same effect by using namespaces. Put all pages that are for "this client" in "This client:Person form", and then do not show the namespace in the page title. I hope that this helps, Kasimir On 2/26/07, Fernando Correia <fernandoacorreia(a)gmail.com> wrote:

If you make a link to [[Category:Foobar]] but only want to display

write this code : [[:Category:Foobar|]] or [[:Category:Foobar|Foobar or what ever else you want]] If in the title of a page you want to hide the namespace ("Category" or "User" or "User talk"...) you should write a little and simple hook. You can see an example on my wiki : http://tousauxbalkans.jexiste.fr/Category:Pays the word "Catégorie" (french for "Category") is replaced by an icon. 2007/2/27, Paul Coghlan <pcoghlan(a)usa.net>et>: > > Kasimir > > Where in Mediawiki can you prevent inclusion of the namespace in the

My hook is not for page footer, it's for title on the top of the page. The category box in the footer is mostly CSS. The flags after the countries names is an old ugly hack I've made in the code, I should convert it to a hook... Here is my hook for the title of a page. /extensions/getPageTitle.php : $wgHooks['GetPageTitle'][] = 'nicePageTitle'; function nicePageTitle($pagetitle) { #TEST : $pagetitle = strtoupper($pagetitle); $img = ''; $imgEnd = ''; if (preg_match('#^Category:#ui', $pagetitle)) $img = 'category.gif'; //...other images if you want if ($img != '') { $pos = strpos($pagetitle, ':'); $alt = substr($pagetitle, 0, $pos+1); $pagetitle = '<img src="/images/'.$img.'" alt="'.$alt.'" title="'.$alt.'" />' . '&nbsp;' . substr($pagetitle, $pos+1); if ($imgEnd != '') $pagetitle .= '&nbsp;<img src="/images/'.$imgEnd.'" alt="" />'; } I include it in LocalSettings, of course and I call it in OutputPage : public function getPageTitle() { wfRunHooks( 'GetPageTitle', array(&$this->mPagetitle )); return $this->mPagetitle; } 2007/2/27, Paul Coghlan &lt;pcoghlan(a)usa.net&gt;et>: > > Thanks Sylvain. > > The [[:Category:foo|foo]] is OK for in-page links but for the list of > categories in the page footer I think there is a need to use the hook
