instant.page Plugin

Search and install the plugin using the Extension Manager. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

This plugin prefetches a page when hovering over a link. Since it usually takes several hundred milliseconds to click on a link, this results in a significant faster experience. Internally, it uses the script provided by https://instant.page/.

• This plugin doesn't work well with DokuWiki's tracking breadcrumbs. It adds every preloaded page to that list of breadcrumbs. This is unfortunately unavoidable. I suggest using the hierarchical breadcrumbs instead.
• There were reports that on IE11¹⁾ there are some incompatibilities with the plugins IndexMenu and Newsticker? Reportedly, it is fine with other browsers. I cannot reproduce this.
• So far it works on Firefox, Chrome and Opera. It is supposed to work on IE11/Edge, however, I've been unable to verify that since I don't run Windows anymore. Safari apparently refuses to implement that API 🤦‍
• It should work only on links to viewing other wikipages. It is disabled for all other modes, esp. edit-mode to prevent accidentally locking a page.
• It is also disabled for external pages.

• ACTION_HEADERS_SEND – used to allow short-term caching of the preloaded pages
• TPL_METAHEADER_OUTPUT – used fetch the instant.page script
