Usage

The tags are added as Content Droplets in visual edit mode.

Number of files <countfiles /> Counts all uploaded files
Number of pages <countarticles /> Counts all content pages in the wiki
Number of users <countusers /> Counts all registered users

Configuring the countcharacters tag

While other tags have no configuration options, and just adding them to the page is sufficient, the tag Number of characters (countcharacters) must be configured.

After inserting this tag or clicking on an existing tag already on the page, a dialog opens.

Enter the name of the page for which to count characters. This name should include the namespace if the page is not in the main namespace. Next, select the mode from the dropdown menu.

While selecting the mode and page, a preview of the output is displayed above the dialog box. If the page title in the table heading shows the page name in red ("redlink"), you have misspelled the page name and the page does not exist.
