Hide Main Page Title
On many wikis, the main page's title is hidden. This can be done via CSS or JavaScript.
Extensions for Templates
- Installing the ParserFunctions extension would allow conditional if statements. This would allow templates to do things like hiding fields that have been left blank.
- LoopFunctions would aid in creating templates like Template:NewsBox.
Embedded Video
Due to the importance of videos for setups and tutorials, it would be useful if videos could be integrated into the wiki instead of requiring the user to leave for a different site (such as YouTube).
To allow video uploads, add file extensions such as .avi, .mov, and .wmv to the $wgFileExtensions array.- To allow videos from sites like YouTube to be embedded into wiki articles, install an extension such as FramedVideo
Search Suggestions
Search suggestions makes navigating to pages faster, and help new users find the page they're looking for faster.
They can be implemented in a few ways:
- Install the Search Suggest extension ($wgUseAjax must be set to true).
- Upgrade the wiki and set $wgEnableMWSuggest to true.
- Set $wgAjaxSearch and $wgUseAjax to true.
Personal Style Sheets & JavaScript
This would allow users to customize the wiki to their taste by creating a User:Username/skinname.* page.
- To allow custom CSS, set $wgAllowUserCss to true.
- To allow custom JavaScript, set $wgAllowUserJs to true
Upgrade Wiki
The wiki is currently running on MediaWiki version 1.15.1, however the most recent version is 1.16.
