[Mediawiki-l] RE: customization of page elements

[JT.Thomas at VerizonWireless.com]

In version 1.2.6 I modified SkinXXXXXXXX.php to affect the changes that I
wished to the page output.

Best Regards,

JT

Hello thanks for your comments on the MediaWiki
mailing list...

Where did you end up editing then?
Even with the PHPtal in MW 1.3 beta 5 I haven't any
idea on where to insert my own site's menu items,
footers, etc..?

Thanks!

Jimmy

I'm in the process of setting up an internal corporate
documentation 
wiki
and have gone through the exact same pains with 1.2.6
- unfortunately 
PHPTal
isn't implemented in this version (as far as I can
tell) so I've taken 
to
modifying the code directly.
