Extension:AjaxLogin

AjaxLogin extension allows users to log in through an AJAX pop-up box. Instead of being taken to Special:UserLogin when they click "Log in / Register", an AJAX pop-up box will be presented to them.

Installation

 * 1) Download the files from SVN and place them in $IP/extensions/AjaxLogin/. Version for MediaWiki 1.17 doesn't work with 1.17 instead it's recommended to download the trunk version. --John Ericson 20:18, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) Add  into your wiki's LocalSettings.php
 * 3) Installation can now be verified through your wiki's Special:Version.

If you want users to be able to log in on edit view (?action=edit) without losing their changes, you will need to hack MediaWiki core. See README for more info about this.
