Template:SettingSummary

Other settings: Alphabetical | By Function

Usage notes

 * name
 * The name of the setting without the initial $wg prefix. This is primarily used to sort the settings correctly in the category index.


 * nowgprefix
 * Declare this blank variable (using  to indicate that a setting does not use the prefix $wg, and to use just $ on it's own instead.  Currently this only applies to the $IP setting, and is unused in the template.  It will become useful if the pages are moved so that the PAGENAME is not the name of the setting (e.g. moved to a sub-page).


 * summary
 * A short description of the setting's purpose.
 * More detailed descriptions are desirable, and should be added to the main page content.
 * If you update the short description, please also update the two tables at Manual:Configuration settings and Manual:Configuration settings (alphabetical).


 * section
 * The category that this setting comes under. This is automatically made into a link to the correct section in Manual:Configuration settings, so make sure you use an existing heading (or a new heading that you may add).


 * version_min, version_max
 * The version of MediaWiki the setting was introduced in (version_min) and the version it was removed in (version_max). Leave out version_max if the setting is still in use. If the setting is no longer used, this template automatically adds the  template to the top of the page.


 * range
 * The range of allowable values, e.g. "0 - 255", "boolean", "string containing a URL or """.


 * default
 * The default value in a clean MediaWiki installation. If this is different in different versions of the software, then such variations should be noted.

If the 'range' or 'default' sections are more than a couple of lines long, then simply put (see below) and fill in the details in the main body of the page.
