Well, if it is outdated and it doesn't do its job, I think it is broken.
What I meant to say is that it doesn't work the way it was designed anymore.

Well, I think it is ours. It was especially created by former developers for 
this purpose and it is probably nowhere else available/usable and just works on 
our wiki.

I haven't read Andrea's post yet, I focused more on getting this defective 
extension IDLTags repaired.

Problem is the deprecation of the ereg_replace function from PHP 7.0.*
That was the function that was used in this IDLTags extension and made it work 
as it did. This is the reason that several pages in the DevGuide show blank.

If we can replace the used ereg_replace function by a still usable preg_replace 
function it should
work again and all should be well :-)
