they're on 1.35 right now which is a bit out of date (lifecycle - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle) but an older branch of MMV should work fine on 1.35
- account42 1y agoI hate this behavior on Wikipedia. Worst part is that people then share links to those views which don't work without running javashit.
- RheingoldRiver 1y agoIf you have an account, you can disable it in preferences. Appearance -> Files -> "Enable Media Viewer" Toggle that off and it'll never happen again
- account42 1y agoBlocking the scripts in question works better for that without the need to make an account. But neither solves the problem of others sharing links to image views that won't work without scripts enabled.
- RheingoldRiver 1y agoYou can still share a link directly to the file. For example: * Page with images - https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/CSS https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/CSS * An image in media viewer - https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/CSS#/media/File:Css-wiki-body-background-image.jpg https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/CSS#/media/File:Css-wiki-body-b... * The image file page - https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/File:Css-wiki-body-background-image.jpg https://support.wiki.gg/wiki/File:Css-wiki-body-background-i... * The direct image in question - https://support.wiki.gg/images/4/41/Css-wiki-body-background-image.jpg?16b3f9 https://support.wiki.gg/images/4/41/Css-wiki-body-background...
