Дейности на Уикимедия ИнженерингWikimedia Engineering Vector A skin based on Monobook, with a variety of usability improvements Група: Features Начало: 2009 Eкип: Trevor Parscal Management: Terry Chay

Vector is a skin for MediaWiki which became default on 2010-05-13 (MediaWiki 1.17, git #2833b07a), succeeding MonoBook. Wikimedia Foundation rolled out Vector on all its wikis in 2010, having created it in 2009 as part of the work done by the Wikipedia Usability Initiative.

Vector provides a number of usability improvements over its predecessor. It was the first skin to separate the flat level content_actions into the categorized content_navigation.

At the beginning the basic functionality was included in the core skin, while some of Vector's special features were handled by a separate extension (Extension:Vector). The extension has since been merged into the skin itself.

Инсталиране

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

wfLoadSkin( 'Vector' );

• Y Done - Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the skin is successfully installed.

To users running MediaWiki 1.24 or earlier:

The instructions above describe the new way of installing skins using wfLoadSkin(), since MediaWiki 1.25. If you need to install this skin in earlier versions, instead of wfLoadSkin( 'Vector' );, you need to use:

(To run an skin on an earlier release, you may need to download the version of it tagged for that release from Special:SkinDistributor.)
