Extension:Interwiki


 * This extension should not be confused with Extension:InterWiki.

This is an extension to add a Special:Interwiki page to MediaWiki, to view and edit the interwiki table, and a log of any actions made with it. It was made by Stephanie Amanda Stevens a.k.a Phroziac, because she was annoyed at forgetting the interwiki prefixes.

Since Interwiki version 2.0, it works with the $wgInterwikiCache, and the CSS uses ResourceLoader. This version is only compatible with MW 1.19+.

The list of Special:Interwiki is identical to the API action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=interwikimap.

Download
These are recommended revisions of SpecialInterwiki to use per MediaWiki version. If a revision does not work with a certain MediaWiki version, please report. In ViewVC, make sure to click the revision download link for each file, not the HEAD download link.

Installation

 * 1) Create a new folder Interwiki in your extensions directory.
 * 2) Download the required extension files (see Download), and put these files in the new Interwiki folder.
 * 3) Make one of the following additions to your LocalSettings.php file, based on the version you are using:
 * 4) Add to the end of LocalSettings.php (MW 1.17+):
 * or add to the end of LocalSettings.php ($wgInterwikiMagic is set to true and $wgHideInterlanguageLinks is set to false (they are like this by default, you don't need to change them usually). Then go to Special:Interwiki as a user with the appropriate permissions. For example, if the French version of your wiki was located at  http://fr.foowiki.tld/wiki/ , you could add  http://fr.foowiki.tld/wiki/$1 </tt> to the interwiki table with values trans 0 and local 0. Then the interlanguage link to the French version would work.
