   The plugin doesn't display images from the remote site. Is this intentional or a bug? e.g.

   Thanks for any help you can give me.

   Hi Joss
   This has something to do how your media wiki is configured. Try a different media wiki such as wikipedia or http://wiki.ubc.ca for example just to see if it works for you.

   Cheers

   OK. Thanks. How should the MediaWiki be configured? Can you point me to any information?

   It has to do with the image path...
   The images have a relative url. The wiki has to be configured to use absolute image urls... If you look at the source code it should be more clear. http://help.blogs.lincoln.ac.uk/2010/09/22/creating-custom-menus/
   I think its '$wgScriptPath' variable that you have to set

   Here is another link

   Hope that helps. We are also developing a bunch of wordpress resources that you could try to embed.
