Configuration[edit | edit source]

  • e.g., the compared revisions.
  • A navigation to the previous difference is displayed. The behavior is similar to that of MediaWiki.
  • You can jump from one change to the next via flyout.
  • Wherever MediaWiki links to the diff view, the special page should be used instead. In particular consider:
    • Left on version page.
    • Links in the ArticleInfo bar.
    • Links from notification emails from MediaWiki.
    • Links from notification emails from BlueSpice.
    • Links from the PDF view.
  • The extension VisualDiff is based on the HTML-Diff tool DaisyDiff and shall give a quick and visually appealing overview of the changes in revisions of a wiki article. The changes are displayed in a so called Unified-Diff and therefore in a document and not like usual in two columns. The normal link to the diff view of MediaWiki is overwritten by a link to a special page. The article revision (oldid) works as a basis for the comparison. This also defines the changes like "added" and "deleted".
