詳細
機能上は、この設定は  と同じですが、ファイルの代わりに文字列を使用する点が異なります.

「LocalSettings.php」ファイル内の文字列に設定した場合は により編集が拒絶され、変数に指定した文字列が理由として表示されます. 指定した理由の前に MediaWiki:Readonlywarning の内容が表示されます.

This can be avoided by disabling cache, albeit at the cost of making your wiki slow. This can be accomplished with the following settings in LocalSettings.php:

If you want your wiki to be fast, while still not using the DB, you should consider using something like Memcached. 詳細は  および   を参照してください. If you want to enable logins while the database is readonly, at least  needs to be set to some real non-DB caching mechanism.

Thumbnails
When in read-only mode, images which need to be transformed or scaled will be shown as an error message instead of as an image. To avoid this problem, put the following in the "LocalSettings.php" file:
