Wikimedia Foundation project Vector Isang skin na base sa MonoBook, na may iba't-ibang pagbabago Group: Mga tampok Start: 2009

Ang Vector ay isang skin para sa MediaWiki na naging default noong 2010 ($1, $2), sinusunod ang MonoBook.

In recent years the skin underwent a number of technical changes, e.g. the switch to Mustache to support the construction of Skin:Vector/2022 as part of the work done by the Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements initiative.

Instalasyon

• If using Vagrant , install with vagrant roles enable vector -p

Manual installation

• 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' );

•  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:

require_once "$IP/skins/Vector/Vector.php";

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

Setting the default skin to Vector

A default skin should be set for new users of a wiki by setting the variable $wgDefaultSkin in LocalSettings.php to the lowercase skin name specified in the skin file:

$wgDefaultSkin = 'vector';
// uncomment the following line to restore "classic" Vector appearance.
// $wgVectorDefaultSkinVersion = '1';

Mga opsyon sa konpigyurasyon

wgVectorUseIconWatch

• Manood at mag-unwatch bilang isang icon imbis na isang link.

• Supported Values:
  • true — gumamit ng isang icon na watch/unwatch na button
  • false — gumamit ng watch/unwatch na tekstong link

$wgVectorUseIconWatch = true;

wgVectorResponsive (< 1.36)

MediaWiki version:

≥ 1.26

Experimental setting to make Vector a responsive skin that adapts to mobile phones. Not actively being tested or used in production (yet) but relatively stable and false by default.

• Supported Values:
  • true — Use responsiveness to improve usability in narrow viewports
  • false — No responsiveness

Note as of 1.36 this experimental feature flag no longer works in the default Vector skin. Those looking for a responsive Vector skin can use #New Vector skin in 1.36+ at their own risk.

wgVectorPrintLogo (< 1.36, removed in 1.36)

MediaWiki version:

≥ 1.30

Logo used in print styles. Keys are 'url', 'width', 'height' (in pixels). Note that this solution only works correctly if the image pointed to by 'url' is an SVG that does not specify width and height attributes, or its width and height match the corresponding variables below. Alternatively, a PNG or other type of image can be used, but its dimensions also need to match the corresponding variable below. That in turn may result in blurry images, though.

In 1.36, please use Manual:$wgLogos

$wgVectorPrintLogo = [
	'url' => 'https://en.wikipedia.org/static/images/mobile/copyright/wikipedia-wordmark-en.svg',
	'width' => 174,
	'height' => 27
];

Smartphone and tablet design

See also: Manual:Mobiles, tablets and responsive design

Vector will work on many mobile devices, but it is not fully optimized for mobile devices. This will be rectified in the new version of Vector that is currently in development: #New_Vector_skin_in_1.36+_2.

History of the skin

Vector became default skin in 2010 (MediaWiki 1.17 , git #2833b07a), succeeding MonoBook. It had been created in 2009 as part of the work done by the Wikipedia Usability Initiative . In 2021, as part of the MediaWiki 1.36 release it will see an update as part of the work done by the Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements initiative.

Maraming mga pagbabago sa paggamit ang Vector kumpara sa predecessor nito. Ito ang kauna-unahang skin na ihiwalay ang flat level na content_actions sa nakakategoryang content_navigation.

Sa umpisa, ang pangunahing pang-andar ay nasa core skin, habang ang ilan sa mga espesyal na tampok ng Vector ay hinahawak ng isang hiwalay na extension (Extension:Vector ). The extension has since been merged into the skin itself.

Dark mode customizations

Many solutions relying on MediaWiki:Common.css exist to support a dark version of the skin, including Skin:Vector/Wikipedia-userstyle-dark-minimum. An alternative skin to Vector exists that allows you to install as a separate skin at Skin:DarkVector.

Note all of these are supported by third parties, not the Wikimedia Foundation.
