Update HighlightLinksInCategory
Edit - no need to fork, just keep using https://github.com/labster/HighlightLinksInCategory since he merged my change. Also add configuration for $wgHighlightLinksInCategoryFollowRedirects to Hydra (imo this should be default true
on Gamepedia, I only defaulted it to false
in the extension json for backwards compatibility).
This patch adds a really really important change for my wikis, which is to style redirects based on the categories of their targets, rather than their own categories.
Currently the only workaround I can do for this involves one additional Cargo table per category as well as a cron script updating pages as they get moved and edited and would be a nightmare to maintain. This is also a high-priority issue, a lot of my users are complaining about the fact that it doesn't currently work.
I don't think it's likely upstream will merge this any time soon as the author has like 9 contributions on GitHub in the past year.
I tested this on a sandbox wiki but would like to run additional verifications on our staging wiki before it's added to live.
