Discussion

FAQ

Is possible to draw a QR code of current page?

From version 2010/01/20 without specifying the payload, e.g.

~~BARCODE~~

Requests

Please raise request here.

Would it be possible to create barcodes without any external provider and dependency? This would be helpful for intranets without internet access. Perhaps a library like phpbarcode could be used.
- You can try runout's fork (updated for PHP 8.2) which uses the qrencode or zint library: https://gitlab.com/dokuwiki-plugins/barcode
