Hello!
Currently, multiple ways to insert icons are available in XWiki. One of these ways is to use image:icon
from XWiki Syntax 2.1 . However, as talked about in this topic with @MichaelHamann and @Wardenburg, this way to add icons is not the only one and not the most up-to-date.
I propose to deprecate the image:icon
syntax.
This deprecation would lead to:
- update the UI options from editors to insert a
displayIcon
macro instead ofimage:icon
syntax. - Update the XWiki 2.1 Syntax documentation
- Close issues related to the
image:icon
syntax asWon't fix
. E.g. XWIKI-10758: Bind icons of the wiki syntax to the icon theme.
Do you agree with this deprecation? Is there any additional step to take to make sure the deprecation process is complete?
