TitleKey extension is a case-insensitive title prefix search plugin by Brion Vibber. It uses a separate table for the keys, so if it works cleanly it can be deployed without an expensive rebuild of core tables, and dumped when Wikimedia gets a nicer backend through lucene.
For the average site administrator, the benefit of this extension is that it allows search suggestions (enabled through $wgEnableMWSuggest) to be case-insensitive.
[edit] Installation
- Download the files from SVN or download a snapshot (select your version of MediaWiki) and place the files under $IP/extensions/TitleKey
- Run the queries from titlekey.sql (if using MySQL) or from titlekey.pg.sql (if using PostgreSQL); on the command line, enter:
mysql -u youruser -p --database=yourdatabase < titlekey.sql - Run the rebuildTitleKeys.php script; on the command line, enter:
php rebuildTitleKeys.php - Add to the end of LocalSettings.php:
require_once("$IP/extensions/TitleKey/TitleKey.php");
$wgEnableMWSuggest = true; - Installation can now be verified through Special:Version on your wiki
