1 Skins, such as the default skin Vector, are distributed separately. Drop them
2 into this directory and enable as per the skin's installation instructions.
4 You can find a list of available skins at
5 <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:All_skins>,
6 and more information about installing and configuring skins at
7 <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_configuration>.
9 If you are a developer, you might want to fetch the skin tree in another
10 directory and make a symbolic link:
12 mediawiki/skins$ ln -s ../../skins-trunk/FooBar
14 Most skins are available through Git:
15 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/admin/projects/?filter=mediawiki%252Fskins%252F
16 https://git.wikimedia.org/project/mediawiki
19 Please note that under POSIX systems (Linux...), parent of a symbolic path
20 refers to the link source, NOT to the target! You should check the env
21 variable MW_INSTALL_PATH in case the extension is not in the default location.
23 The following code snippet lets you override the default path:
25 $IP = getenv( 'MW_INSTALL_PATH' );
27 $IP = __DIR__ . '/../..';
29 require_once "$IP/maintenance/Maintenance.php"; // a MediaWiki core file
