Description
Setup
- MW version: 1.35.5
- PHP version: 7.4.28 (litespeed)
- DB (MySQL etc.): 10.3.34-MariaDB
- SMW version: 3.2.3
- MT version: 1.2.0
Issue
When you use the setting
$wgUseInstantCommons = true;
you only need to point an image property to a name available in wikimedia commons to be able to use the file as if it were uploaded locally. However, images that are not uploaded locally are not displayed in the timeline.
In the same wiki with the same settings, an entry with an uploaded image will display the image, the entry with the image pointing to a wikimedia commons file will not.

Start by reproducing the timeline with an uploaded image and with a Wikimedia Commons image while $wgUseInstantCommons = true. Trace how each image is resolved and rendered in the timeline; done means both locally uploaded and InstantCommons images are displayed.
