[Mediawiki-l] Inserting an external image

[Dave Sigafoos]

It might be better to define a var in Localsettings.php and add that to
the extensions.  You still have to worry about updates to parser.php but
I just hate hard coding bits like that in <G>

Hi,

  Answering myself... I guess I did not send the question to the right
mailing list, but I don't see any other for those technical questions.
   The fix is pretty ugly but it just works (c):

Open includes/Parser.php, look for

EXT_IMAGE_EXTENSIONS

and change into:

define( 'EXT_IMAGE_EXTENSIONS', 'gif|png|jpg|jpeg|png\?view=co' );
