FAQ.KG
-
Why is no image in a specific summary box?
-
Not all, but most, Wikipedia articles contain an image that can be displayed in the summary box. Also make sure that you didn’t use the “#dontshowimage” parameter in your Wikipedia link or you have selected “Disable Images” in the administration.
-
Why is a particular summary box showing fewer characters than set in the admin?
-
The value set in the admin is a maximum. The number of characters displayed in a summary box also depends on the text in the linked Wikipedia article.
-
How do I customize the settings for the summary boxes?
-
In your WordPress admin area, navigate to Settings > Summary for Wikipedia. There, you can adjust the width, number of characters, font size, disable showing images in all summary boxes, and more.
-
I did a change in the settings but it seems not to have an effect.
