The CategoryStepper extension displays a category stepper box allowing one to navigate forward and backwards alphabetically through one or more categories a page is in, as specified via a MediaWiki: namespace page or the $wgCategoryStepper configuration variable.

Bugs and feature requests should be added to MediaZilla under the 'MediaWiki extensions' product and 'CategoryStepper' component.

2. Place the CategoryStepper.i18n.php source code into extensions/CategoryStepper/CategoryStepper.i18n.php.
3. If desired place the CategoryStepper.css source code into skins/CategoryStepper.css.
4. Add require_once( "extensions/CategoryStepper/CategoryStepper.php" ); to LocalSettings.php.

[edit] Usage

Alternatively set the variable to false and use the MediaWiki:Categorystepper page to set options.
