I use the following code in MediaWiki:Monobook.js:

/* Hide the main page title */ function hideMainPageTitle(e) { e = (e) ? e : event; var mainPageTitle = "Main Page"; var headings = document.getElementsByTagName("h1"); var i, done = false; for (i = 1; ((!done) && (i <= headings.length)); i++) { if (headings[i - 1].className == "firstHeading") { done = true; if ((headings[i - 1].innerHTML == mainPageTitle) && (document.getElementById("contentSub").innerHTML == "")) { headings[i - 1].style.display = "none"; document.getElementById("siteSub").style.display = "none"; document.getElementById("contentSub").style.display = "none"; } } } } window.onload = hideMainPageTitle;

It works just fine. However, if you use window.onload also for other functions, you should use instead window.addEventListener for the standard browsers, and window.attachEvent for the evil browser Internet Explorer. You can check the user agent or "document.all" (true in IE, false in the other browsers), and you can read about these functions in the W3C standard/Mozilla documentation (addEventListener), and in the MSDN (attachEvent).

Also, I haven't checked it, but I think using the following function:

addOnloadHook(hideMainPageTitle);

will also work.

I tried to google and read the MediaWiki FAQ, but I could not find the answer. What's the trick to remove the <h1 class="firstHeading">Main Page</h1> and the lines from the main page, so there's no block above the contents, similar to the top page in wikipedia?

It's some sort of JavaScript hack in MediaWiki:Monobook.js.

Force-Refresh the Main Page (Ctrl+F5 or Shift+F5).

Thanks for the recipe, only issue is that if the Monobook.js file changes between minor MediaWIki versions, this needs to be patched in over and over again.

I would request if this was a configuration setting in the next MediaWiki releases, so it could be enabled/disabled per need. Thx, Kent

I changed this in myskin.php (which actually is a copy of monobook.php)

<h1 class="firstHeading"><?php $this->text('title') ?></h1>

becomes

<?php if($this->haveData('title') != 'Main Page'){ ?>

<h1 class="firstHeading"><?php $this->text('title') ?></h1> <?php } ?>

is that a correct way to do it ?

I think it will work, however you should use wfMsgForContent('mainpage') instead of the hard-coded 'Main Page', if you change the site language or just the main page name.

However, I'm not sure you should do that in myskin.php – maybe in MonoBook.php.
