Here we go.
You will need to create an (empty) wiki page MediaWiki:Anon_sidebar or with any content you like to show in the sidebar to anonymous users.
Good luck.
# disable sidebar and toolbox for anonymous user
# advice from mediawiki $wgEnableSidebarCache = false;
$wgHooks['SkinBuildSidebar'][] = 'lfHideSidebar'; /** * Show a different sidebar for anonymous users. * based on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/Sidebar/Hacks * * $skin Skin object * $bar array Contains the array items, out of which the sidebar will be created. * @return true */ function lfHideSidebar( $skin, &$bar ) { global $wgUser; // Hide sidebar for anonymous users if ( !$wgUser->isLoggedIn() ) { // Shows a special anonymous sidebar. $bar = array( // Returns the message text of that sidebar with only {{-transformation done. // Setting array keys "text"; array keys "href" and "active" stay unset. 'text' => wfMessage( 'anon_sidebar' )->inContentLanguage()->text(), ); } else { // No changes, just display the sidebar as usual. } return true; }
$wgHooks['BaseTemplateToolbox'][] = 'modifyToolbox'; /** * Show a different toolbox in sidebar for anonymous users. * based on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Seb35/modifyToolbox * * $skin template object * $toolbox array Contains the array items, out of which the toolbox will be created (without headline) * @return true */ function modifyToolbox( BaseTemplate $baseTemplate, array &$toolbox ) { global $wgUser;
$emptyToolbox = array();
if ( !$wgUser->isLoggedIn() ) { // provide empty toolbox $toolbox = $emptyToolbox; } else { // No changes, just display the existing toolbox as usual. }
return true; }

We included the hook code and php function into the Localsettings.php
and created the additional page for the anon-sidebar as wiki page
I can provide the php code if interested in.
Best regards Ingo

Ya it seems I only get the text printout or it will just show "text" in the sidebar

Hi,
we are using the solution from

(you will need the modification from the talk page)
We added additional handling of the toolbox section, too, by assigning similar solution to the hook $wgHooks['BaseTemplateToolbox'][] based on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Seb35/modifyToolbox User:Seb35/modifyToolbox - MediaWikihttps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Seb35/modifyToolbox www.mediawiki.orghttp://www.mediawiki.org A small code snippet to allow administrators to modify the toolbox through MediaWiki:Sidebar. For example, move the "Recent changes" from the navigation to the toolbox:
