Hi, I don't have the Omega character in my toolbar, so I can't add special characters in my pages… Is there a parameter to activate? I've got MediaWiki 1.22.5 and VisualEditor version 0.1.0

Thanks

That old version of VisualEditor doesn't have this feature. It can't be back-ported, because we had to add features to MediaWiki to support this tool. I would recommend that you upgrade your version of MediaWiki (especially as it is no longer getting security updates) and thus give yourself the ability to use a newer version of VisualEditor.
