User:0x99/MediaWiki Patches

Image cache

Puella Magi Wiki is using a far future expiration header to help with page load and bandwidth usage however when re-uploading the file MediaWiki will replace the same URL and user won't get the latest version of the file until the file is expired from user's cache. This patch add a timestamp to every image URL. It is based on a patch by Surgey Chernyshev.

• Bug 17577 - Images can't have far future expires.
