The Crosswiki Blocking extension provides a new special page, Special:CrosswikiBlock, which can be used to block users on other wikis.

[edit] Usage

[edit] Download instructions

Download this extension from SVN and place the files in $IP/extensions/CrosswikiBlock. Note: $IP stands for the root directory of your MediaWiki installation, the same directory that holds LocalSettings.php.

[edit] Installation

First, you have to patch some files by ipb_by_text.patch (you can find it in the extension directory). Then add the following to LocalSettings.php:

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

The right to use this extension, crosswikiblock, is given to the group steward by default. To change it, put something like this into your LocalSettings.php:

$wgGroupPermissions['somegroup']['crosswikiblock'] = true;
