MediaWiki extensions/Wanted Extensions

Move to MediaWiki[edit]

When this page is going to be moved to Mediawiki.org ? Now we have 2 extensions index -.- --81.57.3.212 18:28, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is a automatic category page and can not be "moved". 84.137.225.58 12:15, 25 September 2006 (UTC)s[reply]
Feel free to do it yourself. You just need to transwiki the individual pages, create the category, then note the move here. // [admin] Pathoschild (talk/map) 23:54, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pages[edit]

Could this be changed so all the extensions are on one page instead of two? I don't know if that's possible? --mw:User:Rick 21:05, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, the pagination cannot be overridden. // [admin] Pathoschild (talk/map) 23:54, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ok thanks --mw:User:Rick 18:16, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What Extension is used here for Subcategories[edit]

Subcategories do have a + in front of them and are loaded with Ajax. What extension is this? It's not CategoryTree extension because I tried that already.

It is the CategoryTree extension; see the description: "The CategoryTree extension adds [+] "expand" widgets to the subcategories listed on category pages. If Javascript is disabled, those widgets just do nothing.". Are you running MediaWiki 1.8+? —{admin} Pathoschild 05:52, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Calculation[edit]

Is there a way to make calculations in MediaWiki. I.e. {{{1}}}*0.62137= {{{2}}} and show in the screen {{{2}}} km/h ({{{1}}} mph ) . The formula could be {{{1}}}*0.62137= {{{2}}} -----> {{{2}}} km/h ({{{1}}} mph ) . --193.144.127.248 07:02, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See ParserFunctions. —{admin} Pathoschild 05:26, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Colored pages category[edit]

In some Wikipedias, as the French one, Help or Discussion pages have a special color. Do any one know the extension used ? :) Thanks

This can be done with Cascading Style Sheets. The body of each page has unformatted classes for the namespace id, text direction, and page name. For example, the body on this page is <body class="mediawiki ns-15 ltr page-Category_talk_MediaWiki_extensions">; you could make pages in this category white on black by adding the following to MediaWiki:Common.css: .ns-15 #content { background:#000; color:#FFF; }. —{admin} Pathoschild 23:00, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
