Hello,
Quick question. I have searched many pages for this answer but have not found a working solution.
How do I link to a section of the Category list? I have tried:
[[Category:Testing]] [[{{localurl:Category:Testing}}]] [[Category:Testing?year=2007]] [[Special:Categories:Testing]] [[Categories:Testing]]
I am trying to add a link from one page to a section of the Category list. Is that possible? I noticed on the main MediaWiki page there is a link to the extensions category, but that is an external link. I could do an external link, but would prefer all internal ones.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Joe

I believe you do it by putting a colon *in front* of the word Category:
[[:Category:testing]]
but I'm not positive.

Yep, that worked great!
Thank you very much for the extremely fast response!

Oh yeah; he did say "section". My bad. Thanks, Rob.
