If you are looking for an extension that does this, take a look at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:FCKeditor
When you look at installation instructions, it will tell you to modify a couple of MediaWiki files - this is probably not needed if you just want to check out preferences. Just install the extension by putting it in extensions/ directory and adding the necessary line to LocalSettings.php as per instructions.

I'm looking for a way to extend the User Preferences special page and can't really find any existing extensions or samples out there.
I want to add a couple of new user options, preferably under "Misc." but, can't figure out how.
I know, that as a last resort, I can modify SpecialPreferences.php but would I would prefer to not modify the core and implement what I want to do as an extension.
Any help would be most appreciated
Thanks
