What you will learn from this book
- Understand the architecture of a
MediaWiki skin: how CSS, PHP, and image files work together to create a particular look.
- Customize all aspects of your wiki's appearance: the article display screens, the editing screens, the fonts, images, layout and colors.
- Integrate your wiki with services such as Twitter, YouTube, and features from your own website.
- Make your wiki more user-friendly: use interface design to encourage edits, make articles more readable, and make the wiki easier and more fun to use.
- Create print style sheets for your wiki, making it easy for users to get hard copies of wiki pages.
- Incorporate JavaScript and AJAX features into your MediaWiki skin, providing faster edits and greater usability.
- Ensure your skin is compatible with the major browsers, including the popular but badly behaved Internet Explorer.
- Deploy your skin to a live MediaWiki server, and see how to distribute it to other MediaWiki owners.
