Stupid question: How do I add contents to the index page?
I want to join a banner exchange program and have to add html code into the front page(index). What file do I have to change? And can I just copy and paste it? I'm a bit confused with the php-files and languages.
Thank you.
Regards,
Sarel
Hello, My coworkers are converting a wiki from an old engine to one using mediawiki, and the users for this new wiki have requested that a save button be created at the top of the editing page, as well as the bottom, and to make there be an save page tab when editing pages. Which file(s) would I have to change or move code to for this to happen?
Thanks, Marshall
How well do you know PHP?
I would suggest writing an extension using the AlternateEdit Hook http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/AlternateEdit

Hi Sarel,
You probably want to add your HTML to the skin file. That way your banner will show up on every page. The skins are located in wiki/skins. You are probably using Monobook. Try copying the monobook php file and supporting folder and renaming them to MonoBookWithBanner or something.
This will probably help you: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning
Good luck! -Courtney
