CategorySearchSuggestions modifies the search suggestions box to include suggestions from categories and all namespaces registered with $wgContentNamespaces. This is a horrid patch of Niklas Laxström's extension MixedNamespaceSearchSuggestions to include the category namespace.

Installation

• Download and place the file(s) in a directory called CategorySearchSuggestions in your extensions/ folder.
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:

  wfLoadExtension( 'CategorySearchSuggestions' );
  

•  Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
• Ping me on my talk page. I'm genuinely curious if anybody else cares about this.
