Help/BackLinksPlugin

Note: You are viewing an old revision of this page. View the current version.

The BackLinks plugin lists all pages which link to a given page.

The contents of all pages are searched to find links to the current page. The BackLinks function also answers the question: “Which pages contain the title of this page?”.

To display the list of pages which all contain multiple links use a pagelist as page argument. For example <<BackLinks page=Milk,Honey>> would display all pages which contain links to Milk AND Honey.
