COLLADA Public Wiki:Wiki customization project: Difference between revisions

From COLLADA Public Wiki

Revision as of 04:25, 5 June 2007

Virtually everything about this wiki's interface can be customized, although only sysops or bureaucrats can make the changes.

List here things that you'd like to see addressed in the wiki interface:

MediaWiki:Sidebar defines the layout of the left navigation bar. Changes needed:

(at the moment, none identified)
In left navigation box, change name of "Community portal" to maybe "What's going on" (and fix where that link goes to match, etc.)

Can we set default search to include Help and COLLADA namespaces?
There seems to be something odd about the default search and not sure whether it's configurable. For example, "accessor" finds entirely different articles than "accessors" and whereas I in fact expected "*accessor*" to do better, it didn't. Need to research this--this might be an indexing problem, as "accessor" finds many articles with that as a partial word but still not finding Using accessors article.
Maybe we want to set search size to 3 chars instead of 4. Seems like there'll be a lot of TLAs that people might want to search for--"DOM", "XSI", and so on.

Define processes for adding, reviewing, approving(?) Portal:Tutorials. DONE 5/16ish by Elf
Install MediaWiki parser functions so easier to do conditional templates. DONE 5/18 by Roger.
Possibly install Extension prefix security to allow providers of plug-ins to edit info about their plug-ins but others to only read it.
