Extension:Favorites/de-formal

The Favorites extension makes it easy for users to add pages to their personal favorites list with just one click, so they can browse through them again later or share their favorites with others. It creates a new special page that contains a list of Favorites for each user, similar to the Watchlist. It also allows for the list of favorites to be publicly embedded on a page using a tag.

Verwendung
Users add items to the Favorite list by either selecting  from the navigation menu, or by clicking the Star icon (if implemented - see Configuration parameters). Conversely, removing a Favorite from the list is a matter of clicking  or clicking the Star a second time. Users can also edit their list through the Special:Favoritelist page using the same features included with the Watchlist.



Parser-Tag
You can dynamically embed favorites on any page or template using the following tag:

This tag takes the following arguments:

editlink=true userpage=true


 * The "editlink" argument will add a link at the bottom of the list that will allow the user to edit their list of favorites.
 * The "userpage" argument will allow you to display your favorites on your user page. This argument will only work on a user page.  Of course, leaving this argument off will display the logged-in user's own list, even while viewing someone else's user page.
 * If both arguments are combined, the edit link will display, but it will take the user back to their list of favorites, not those of the user they are viewing. This could get confusing, so it's not recommended.

Spezialseite
This extension also creates a new Special page called "Special:Favoritelist". This special page allows users to view or edit their list of favorites. A link to this page can be added to the Personal Urls section of MediaWiki. See Configuration parameters for more details.

Konfiguration
The $wgUseIconFavorite parameter will use the same "Star" icon that is included with the Vector Watchlist. If you are already using the Star icon for your watched items, you may want to set $wgVectorUseIconWatch to false in LocalSettings.php.

The $wgFavoritesPersonalURL parameter adds a link to "My Favorites" to the Personal Urls section of MediaWiki next to "My Watchlist".

Deinstallieren
Most extensions can be removed by deleting them and editing LocalSettings.php to remove references to it. Since this extension makes changes to your database, removing it additionally requires undoing database changes. It's as simple as removing the favoritelist table from the database.

If you have access to your database using a tool like PHPMyAdmin, you can just delete the table. For commandline access or to use a script, you would use this command:
