22===== Installation =====
23
24Install the plugin from the [[plugin:extension|Extension Manager]] using the URL above, or copy it into ''lib/plugins/pagesicon''.
25
26===== Description =====
27
28The **pagesicon** plugin can:
29  * display an icon at the top of the page;
30  * use this icon as the page favicon;
31  * manage icons from the page action ''?do=pagesicon'';
32  * handle two variants: ''big'' and ''small'';
33  * expose a helper API for other plugins.
34
35The plugin works on the current page. There is no external target to fill in on the management screen.
36
37===== Settings =====
38
39^ Name ^ Description ^ Default value ^
40| icon_name | Candidate names for the ''big'' icon (separated by '';''). Supports ''~pagename~''. | ''~pagename~;icon_thumbnail;icon'' |
41| icon_thumbnail_name | Candidate names for the ''small'' icon (separated by '';''). Supports ''~pagename~''. | ''~pagename~;icon'' |
42| default_image | Default image (mediaID), used only when a helper method explicitly asks for a fallback. | '''' |
43| icon_size | Size of the icon displayed at the top of the page (px). | ''55'' |
44| extensions | Allowed image extensions (separated by '';''). | ''svg;png;jpg;jpeg'' |
45| show_on_top | Show the icon at the top of the page. | ''true'' |
46| show_as_favicon | Use the icon as favicon. | ''true'' |
47| parent_fallback | Fallback inheritance policy when the page has no icon: none, direct parent, or first icon found while walking up parent namespaces. | ''none'' |
48
49===== Usage =====
50
51From a page, use the **Manage icon** action, then:
52  * upload a ''big'' icon;
53  * upload a ''small'' icon;
54  * delete the current icon.
55
56The form:
57  * computes the allowed target filenames from the configuration;
58  * limits uploads to the configured extensions;
59  * opens the media manager on the page namespace.
60
61===== Helper API =====
62
63Load helper:
64''$pagesicon = plugin_load('helper', 'pagesicon');''
65
66==== Main methods ====
67
68^ Method ^ Since ^ Description ^
69| ''getPageIconId($namespace, $pageID, $size = "bigorsmall")'' | ''2026-03-09'' | Returns the mediaID of a page icon, or ''false''. |
70| ''getMediaIconId($mediaID, $size = "bigorsmall")'' | ''2026-03-09'' | Returns the mediaID of the icon associated with a media file, or ''false''. |
71| ''getPageIconUrl($namespace, $pageID, $size = "bigorsmall", $params = ['width' => 55], &$mtime = null, $withDefault = false)'' | ''2026-03-09'' | Returns the versioned URL of a page icon, or ''false''. |
72| ''getMediaIconUrl($mediaID, $size = "bigorsmall", $params = ['width' => 55], &$mtime = null, $withDefault = false)'' | ''2026-03-09'' | Returns the versioned URL of the icon associated with a media file, or ''false''. |
73| ''getDefaultIconUrl($params = ['width' => 55], &$mtime = null)'' | ''2026-03-09'' | Returns the default image to use when no icon is found. |
74| ''getUploadIconPage($targetPage = "")'' | ''2026-03-06'' | Returns the ''?do=pagesicon'' URL for a page, or ''null'' when unauthorized. |
75| ''getUploadMediaIconPage($mediaID = "")'' | ''2026-03-06'' | Returns the icon management URL associated with a media file. |
76| ''notifyIconUpdated($targetPage, $action = "update", $mediaID = "")'' | ''2026-03-06'' | Triggers the cache invalidation event. |
77| ''isPageIconMedia($mediaID)'' | ''2026-03-11'' | Tells whether a media file should be considered an icon managed by the plugin. |
78
79==== Public utility methods ====
80
81These methods are a bit more technical, but useful when another plugin wants to reuse the exact naming and configuration logic of ''pagesicon''.
82
83^ Method ^ Since ^ Description ^
84| ''getConfiguredExtensions()'' | ''2026-03-11'' | Returns the configured list of allowed extensions. |
85| ''getVariantTemplates($variant)'' | ''2026-03-11'' | Returns the configured filename templates for ''big'' or ''small''. |
86| ''normalizeIconBaseName($name)'' | ''2026-03-11'' | Normalizes an icon filename without namespace or extension. |
87| ''getUploadNameChoices($targetPage, $variant)'' | ''2026-03-11'' | Returns the allowed target names for an upload. |
88
89===== Event =====
90
91On upload or deletion, the plugin emits:
92  * ''PLUGIN_PAGESICON_UPDATED''
93
94Payload:
95  * ''target_page''
96  * ''action''
97  * ''media_id''
98
99Consumer plugins remain responsible for their own cache invalidation.
100
101===== Compatibility =====
102
103Older API signatures are still available through legacy aliases.
104
105^ Historical alias ^ Added ^ Deprecated ^ Replacement ^
106| ''getPageImage(...)'' | ''2026-03-06'' | ''2026-03-09'' | ''getPageIconId(...)'' |
107| ''getMediaImage(...)'' | ''2026-03-06'' | ''2026-03-09'' | ''getMediaIconId(...)'' |
108| ''getImageIcon(...)'' | ''2026-03-06'' | ''2026-03-09'' | ''getPageIconUrl(...)'' |
109| ''getMediaIcon(...)'' | ''2026-03-06'' | ''2026-03-09'' | ''getMediaIconUrl(...)'' |
110| ''getDefaultImageIcon(...)'' | ''2026-03-09'' | ''2026-03-09'' | ''getDefaultIconUrl(...)'' |
111
112===== How it works =====
113
114Icon resolution follows the configured order:
115  * configured names for the requested variant;
116  * ''~pagename~'' replacements;
117  * historical plugin fallbacks such as ''logo'' and ''thumbnail''.
118
119If no icon is found on the page itself, the plugin can also inherit:
120  * no icon;
121  * the direct parent icon;
122  * the first icon found while walking up parent namespaces.
123
124The URLs returned by the helper are versioned with a ''pi_ts'' parameter based on the media ''filemtime''.
125
126===== Notes =====
127
128  * The plugin ignores technical pages such as ''sidebar'' and ''footer'' during icon/favicon injection, to avoid a layout include replacing the current page icon.
129  * The management screen uses the current plugin configuration. If a required configuration is empty or invalid, the plugin emits a PHP warning and does not invent fallback values.
