- ↑ The most recent release is always available through the extension's PEAR and SVN repositories. This page is not necessarily up-to-date.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 Extension:ExtensionManager does not require any modification to LocalSettings.php because ExtensionManager includes the extension.
Note that if PHP code caching is in place (e.g. APC, eAccelerator), then to successfully complete the installation a cache flush might be needed. - ↑ Modifications to
LocalSettings.phpis only necessary if not using Extension:ExtensionManager
