RandomImage
A random image
The RandomImage extension has been installed meaning that you can add a random uploaded image on a page.
Search web links
Special:Linksearch allows you to view external links to a specified domain name. It can be used to find spam links.
Image caching
In the Wikia-l mailing list, Matthew Silvey said:
- "We have a new web caching service that will speed up page load time [...] The downside is that there will be a slight delay in updating images for the next day or two. You may see up to two hours in delay between when an existing image is changed and when you can view it. We are hoping to have this reduced to a few minutes quickly."
Other
There has also been work on the skins and search feature. The slate and smoke skins should be available soon.
