Check usage (experimental)

This feature is used to track users' navigation around the wiki by monitoring each click they make. It has a couple of API modules.

ClickTracking was developed specifically to be run as part of the Beta rollout on Wikimedia wikis; it may or may not be useful to third-party users. The extension can of course be run on non-WMF wikis, but documentation is very limited.

This extension has been migrated from Extension:UsabilityInitiative. During this migration this extension was ported to make use of ResourceLoader functionality, making it only compatible with MediaWiki 1.17+.
If you are upgrading from the UsabilityInitiative (MediaWiki 1.16 compatible) version, you may need to pay attention to the change in naming for configuration variables. See README for an example.

[edit] Installation

  1. Get the extension with distributor or svn and drop it into MediaWiki directory /extensions
  2. Setup your LocalSettings.php as explained in README file.
  3. Run php maintenance/update.php from the command line (see update.php and also here)
