Help:Extension:GlobalUserPage/it

The GlobalUserPage extension lets you reuse the same user page across multiple wikis in a wikifarm.

Enabling your global user page
In most cases, you don't need to do anything. If a local user page is not showing what you desire, you may need one or more of the following steps.


 * Create a user page at the central wiki. (For example, Wikimedia projects use [//meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyPage your Meta user page].)


 * If the feature is disabled by default and GlobalPreferences is installed, go to Special:GlobalPreferences and enable the "Use global user page" and "Use this preference on all wikis" checkboxes.


 * If a local user page exists with content which you no longer want to be shown, you'll need to request its deletion. See Help:Deleting a page for details, or contact a local administrator.

Where content comes from
Your user page is generated on the central wiki, and the result is shown on local wikis. When you use templates, the content you see on the central wiki is what you'll see on other wikis. (The global user page won't use local templates when shown on a local wiki.)

This also applies to the  parser function, which will show system messages from the central wiki.

Wikilinks are relative, so they'll point to the local wiki.

On Wikimedia projects, use [//meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Interwiki_linking#Portable_links portable interwiki links].

Controlling what content is displayed
Just like transcluding a template, you can use the  and   tags to control what content is displayed only locally, or only globally.

You can "opt out" of global user pages by simply wrapping your central user page in  tags.

Caveats

 * Your user page might not look the same on other wikis due to differences in their site CSS.
 * Transclusions of special pages or parser functions like  won't update as frequently as they do locally.
