[edit] Extension settings

These are configuration options you may set that changes the behavior of the extension. These settings should be put in your LocalSettings.php file, after the line where you load the extension.

[edit] $wgKMLExportFoldMode

Sets how multiple placemarks on the same article are disposed on the KML tree.

Possible values are:

KML_FOLD_ALWAYS

always put placemarks in a subfolder for every article

KML_FOLD_MULTIPLE

put placemarks in a subfolder if article has more than one placemark

KML_FOLD_NEVER

put all placemarks in the category folder

The default setting is KML_FOLD_MULTIPLE.

[edit] $wgKMLExportExcerpts

Not implemented yet...

[edit] $wgKMLExportMaxRecursion

Sets how many categories the extension will descend into while generating KML output. Try to avoid deep recursions, the current algorithm doesn't scale well for deep recursion trees.

The default setting is 3 categories.

[edit] $wgKMLExportMultipleCategory

MediaWiki allows for articles to be categorized into more than a single category, but KML uses a tree structure where every folder and placemark are contained into exactly one parent folder. Normally, if an article is contained in many categories and more than one of these categories are generated on the KML tree, we list the article only on the first category.

If this option is set, placemarks of the same article are listed multiple times, once for each category the article is contained in. This may look more coherent, but creates extra overlapping placemarks, makes output bigger and requires more time to generate.

Before setting this option, you should consider organizing your categories so that this wouldn't be necessary.

The default setting is false.
