What can this extension do? [edit]

This extension implements the server's part of "HTTP Extensions for Account Management and Session Identification" for MediaWiki, i.e., using this extension, you can log in or out to your wiki with a single click.

Usage [edit]

When visiting your wiki, you can log in or out with a single click (if you stored the credentials for your wiki account in the Firefox password manager).

Download instructions and Installation [edit]

Copy the code of AccountManager.php into a file $IP/extensions/AccountManager.php (where $IP is the root directory of your MediaWiki installation). Then add the following to LocalSettings.php:

require_once("$IP/extensions/AccountManager.php");

Note: If you wish, you can instead put the extension in a subdirectory, e.g., place the code in $IP/extensions/AccountManager/AccountManager.php and refer to that in LocalSettings.php.
