Configuration options

Option	Values*	Description
General		[]
Basic
popupDelay	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, a decimal number	The number of seconds before popups appear.
popupHideDelay	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, a decimal number	The approximate number of seconds between the mouse leaving a popup and its disappearance.
simplePopups	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If you just want the links or find the amount of bandwidth consumed too great, then set this to true. No data will be downloaded and the popups will just consist of a list of links unless you set one of the following options to true: popupUserInfo, popupPreviewDiffs, popupPreviewHistory, popupCategoryMembers, imagePopupsForImages.
popupStructure	'original', 'fancy', 'fancy2', 'menus', REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, 'lite', 'nostalgia'	Select the structure of the popups – view example screenshots. The 'original' setting, which is the default if simplePopups is true (or if your browser is known not to support menus), has all the navigation links in the popup itself; 'nostalgia', 'fancy' and fancy2 are variants of this. The 'shortmenus' setting, which is the default if simplePopups is not true, puts the navigation links in popup menus which appear when you mouseover the links beside the popup title. 'menus' is a more extensive version of 'shortmenus' with more links. Finally, 'lite' is a very simple structure, with just the preview and no navigation links at all. Note that to set this variable, you need to include the single quotes, e.g. popupStructure='fancy';.
popupActionsMenu	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	When using menus, you can either have the title link in the popup generating a menu (if this is set to false) or a separate "actions" menu (if this is set to true, the default).
popupAdminLinks	true, false	Links to block people, delete pages and protect or unprotect pages are by default only available to administrators. Use this variable to override the default behavior.
popupShortcutKeys	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to true then you can focus some of the links in the popups quickly by pressing keys. When you hover the mouse over a link with a shortcut, the shortcut key appears at the end of the popup hint. For example, in Firefox or Opera, to quickly edit an article in a new tab you can type 'e Control-Enter'. Pressing escape should hide the popup, too.
popupHistoricalLinks	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	When hovering over links to old revisions and diff links, extra links such as "editOld" are generated if this is true. Otherwise, you get the same links as when hovering over an ordinary link.
popupOnlyArticleLinks	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If true, then popups are only generated for links in the article. Otherwise, many other links (such as Edit, Help) get popups too.
popupMaxWidth	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, an integer or false	The maximum width of the popup in pixels. Setting this to false means the popup will expand to accommodate its contents.
popupInitialWidth	an integer or REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	The initial width of the popup in pixels. Setting this to false means the popup will initially be the size needed to accommodate its initial contents.
popupTocLinks	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	Whether or not to create popups for the Table of content items. Set true to create popups for table of content.
popupSubpopups	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If this is true then popups are generated for links in previews.
popupDragHandle	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, 'popupTopLinks', ...	The name of an element by which the popup can be dragged without holding the shift key. If false, then the popup can be dragged using the shift key instead.
popupAllDabsStubs	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to false then only pages that look like stubs or disambiguation pages in the article namespace are treated specially. (Setting this to true can lead to lots of false positives).
popupAdjustDiffDates	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If true, then dates in history, diff and user contributions previews are adjusted according to the settings in your user preferences.
popupModifier	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected (default), 'ctrl', 'shift', 'alt', 'meta'	Lets popups only appear when pushing a modifier key while hovering over the links. This prevents unintentional popups that hide page content.
Images
popupImages	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If this is false then images are never displayed.
imagePopupsForImages	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	By default, preview images are loaded even when hovering over visible images. Setting this to false turns that off. If simplePopups is set to true, then the default value for this option is false.
popupThumbAction	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, "sizetoggle", "linkfull"	This controls what happens when you click the image in a preview. "imagepage" takes you to the image page (and will generate a subpopup when you hover over the image), unless the popup is generated for the image page; "sizetoggle" means the image size is toggled on click, and "linkfull" means that the image links directly to the full size version.
Redirs, Dabs, Reversion
popupFixRedirs	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to true then you can automatically "fix" links to redirect pages by clicking on the "Redirects" link. Note: You probably don't want to "fix" such links every time you come across them, and you definitely don't want to go on a hunt for them to "fix" them. See the About fixing redirects subpage.
popupRedirAutoClick	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, 'wpPreview', 'wpSave'	The button which is automatically pressed when fixing redirects. If set to 'wpSave' you do not need to confirm the change.
popupFixDabs	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to true then you can automatically "fix" links to disambiguation pages by clicking one of the links at the very bottom of the popup.
popupDabsAutoClick	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, 'wpPreview', 'wpSave'	The button which is automatically pressed when fixing (or removing) links to disambiguation pages. If set to 'wpSave' you do not need to confirm the change.
popupRedlinkRemoval	true, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to true then you can automatically remove links to non-existent pages (so-called "red links") by selecting "Remove this link".
popupRedlinkAutoClick	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, 'wpPreview', 'wpSave'	The button which is automatically pressed when removing red links. If set to 'wpSave' you do not need to confirm the change.
popupWatchDisambiggedPages	true, false, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to true then fixed dab pages will always be watched; if it's false, then they'll always be unwatched. If it's null, then the page will be watched or unwatched according to the settings in your user preferences.
popupWatchRedirredPages	true, false, REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected	If this variable is set to true then fixed redirect pages will always be watched; if it's false, then they'll always be unwatched. If it's null, then the page will be watched or unwatched according to the settings in your user preferences.
Navlinks
popupNavLinks	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If this is true then navigation links are displayed. If false, then these are switched off.
popupLastEditLink	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	Whether the popup should contain a "most recent edit" link.
popupEditCounterTool	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, "custom"	The edit counter tool to use or a custom url defined by popupEditCounterUrl.
popupEditCounterUrl	REDIRECT Template:Highlight	The url for a custom edit counter. You can use replaceable parameters in this url: $1 will be replaced with the username, and $2 with the database name (for example, enwiki_p).
Previews, etc.
popupPreviews	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If this is true and you haven't set simplePopups, then a preview of the first part of the article will appear. (Reports of pages for which this is done badly are most welcome). If false, then this is switched off.
popupSummaryData	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If this is true summary data for the target page is displayed. If false, then this is switched off.
popupUserInfo	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If set to true show user info when the target page is in a user's or user talk's namespace. If simplePopups is set to true, then the default value for this option is false.
popupLastModified	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If true then the age of the page is displayed in the summary data. This is the amount of time that has elapsed since the article was edited.
Diffs
popupDiffDates	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If true, the dates of the revisions being compared are shown when previewing diffs.

popupImageLinks	REDIRECT Template:Highlight Template:R protected, false	If true, pages linking to an image should appear in the preview. This currently does not work for commons images.
