Hi, I would like to use separate style sheets for different namespaces. I found this in MonoBook.php: <?php if($this->data['pagecss']) { ?><style type="text/css"><?php $this->html('pagecss') ?></style> (line 96 in 1.15) could there be a similar function? Something like: "If there is a Mediawiki page called {{NAMESPACE}}.css, use it"...? thanks Bernhard

I don't believe there's a specific namespace css but you can add specific css for a namespace in your skin's css file. Each namespace has a specific class, i.e ns-0, ns-14. You can find them by looking at the source code. On Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 12:43 PM, Scheid, Bernhard < Bernhard.Scheid(a)oeaw.ac.at> wrote:

Yes, I know, but I will have quite a lot of namespaces (I use them as "chapters" to organize content) and your method would become quite cumbersome. I wonder whether I could create css sheets that could be called according to the namespace.

How much will you be customizing each namespace? Remember that the C stands for Cascading. Typically you would make very few changes on each namespace, applying once some rules to a set of namespaces.

I wanted to do something similar and received the following solution: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22552 So you could do something like this in mediawiki:common.css: importStylesheet('mediawiki:mystyle' + wgCanonicalNamespace + '.css'); and then create mediawiki:mystyleUser.css, mediawiki:mystyleCategory.css, etc. DanB -----Original Message----- From: mediawiki-l-bounces(a)lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Platonides Sent: Saturday, April 10, 2010 6:00 PM To: mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] css for namespaces Scheid, Bernhard wrote:

Seems to work only with mediawiki:common.js, though, which is sad since it makes styles dependent on js functionality. But at least a good way to add sophisticated js...

Yes, you have to put the line into mediawiki:common.js (not .css, sorry). But it does include stylesheets. DanB

Sorry for yet another small problem: I discovered that it should be possible to turn the page subtitle (which is usually hidden by CSS) into a good way to show "breadcrumbs" adding some magic words to MediaWiki:Tagline. The only problem: Links are not parsed correctly, neither in Wikicode nor in HTML (actually both ways are not parsed at all). Example: {{SITENAME}} {{#if: {{NAMESPACE}} |

{{NAMESPACE}}

}}

{{BASEPAGENAME}}

{{#if: {{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}} | 1 | 2 }} |

{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}} | 1 | 2 }}

}} {{#if: {{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}} | 1 | 3 }} |

{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}} | 1 | 3 }}

}} Ideally, something like [[Main Page|{{SITENAME}}]], etc. should work. Any solution? Thx Bernhard

What do you have against the breadcrumbs that appear automatically on namespaces with subpages? To make that work, change at Skin.php wfMsgExt( 'tagline', 'parsemag' ) to wfMsgExt( 'bernhard-breadcrumbs', 'parse' ) and you will be able to add that code to MediaWiki:bernhard-breadcrumbs

@Platonides: Sounds great, thank you. However, didn't work so far. Could there be a cache problem (the Mediawiki:Tagline still works although disabled...)? There are a few extensions for breadcrumbs out there, but they do not quite what I want (as is the case with the breadcrumbs you mention). This should be an ideal way, if it works. Sorry for my silly questions. I am just beginning to get a picture...
