Help talk:What links here

A CSS method was suggested, as well as using Extension:DynamicPageList, which was already available to the user on the wiki in question.

I'd like to transclude the "What Links here" into another page, but when I do so, I end up with something that looks like:

Pagename (← links )

Is there a way to transclude this without including the links bit?

Found it.

Add

.mw-whatlinkshere-tools{

display:none;

}

To Common.css

@Blinkingline While you can do that, keep in mind that it'll affect all instances of What links here? output, including on Special:WhatLinksHere itself.

Good to know. Thanks!

As a mention buried in the help page notes, another option for wikis with Extension:DynamicPageList installed (like most Wikia/Fandom sites, for one, but un-like Wikipedia) is to use {{#dpl:linksto = page name}}, which produces a simple list of links.

Perfect. I already have DPL installed, so this will work. Thanks!

The very first sentence says this: "In the toolbox of every page there is a link labeled "What links here" (or, more generally, labeled with the text in MediaWiki:Whatlinkshere), also called backlink"

What is the toolbox of every page? Where can I find it 14:53, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

@Ottawahitech: In the latest site redesign, what the intro is referring to is the section titled "Tools" in the left-hand sidebar. (Which may only be visible if you click the "hamburger icon" () in the upper-left corner of the page.)
