[edit] Installation
To install this extension, add the following to LocalSettings.php:
require_once("$IP/extensions/ChromeMenu/ChromeMenu.php");
- Note: As of beta version 0.1, I have the following hardcoded in chrome.js, which may or may not need to be changed for other wiki installs. Please note that the code uses mediawiki by default. Most sites will probably have to change this to get the menu arrow gifs to display.
offsetLeft: -150, // this sets the dropdown location offsetTop: -35, // this sets the dropdown location dropdownindicator: '<img src="/mediawiki/extensions/ChromeMenu/down.gif" border="0" />',
