Hi, I am creating a tag extension that uses the categories of the current page. How can I get a list of all categories that are assigned on the page? And I don't want the parent categories. I have found $wgPageTitle = $parser->getTitle(); $wgParentCats = $wgPageTitle->getParentCategories(); but it lists all the parent categories as well. Thanks, Andi

Could you get the page text and parse out the category line? Might not be the most elegant solution though. -Courtney -----Original Message----- From: wikitech-l-bounces(a)lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:wikitech-l-bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Andreas Rindler Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2007 7:13 AM To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list; wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: [Wikitech-l] Categories of current page Hi, I am creating a tag extension that uses the categories of the current page.

Looking at the code, it doesn't LOOK like it gets all the parent categories, too. $sql = "SELECT * FROM $categorylinks" ." WHERE cl_from='$titlekey'" ." AND cl_from <> '0'" ." ORDER BY cl_sortkey"; Correct me if I'm wrong.. -- Andrew Garrett
