[edit] Install
To download the extension you can use one of three methods:
- You can checkout the extension from subversion using:
svn checkout svn://svn.nadir-point.com/mediawiki-extensions/branches/stable/SidebarDonateBox/ extensions/SidebarDonateBox
- Or you can checkout the entire repo of Wiki-Tools extensions into a nice wiki-tools directory which lets you put Wikimedia extensions in the extensions/ folder without the two SVN repos colliding:
svn checkout svn://svn.nadir-point.com/mediawiki-extensions/branches/stable/ extensions/wiki-tools/
- Or if you really do not wish to use subversion you may grab a tarball snapshot http://svn.nadir-point.com/viewvc/mediawiki-extensions/branches/stable/SidebarDonateBox.tar.gz.
To install the extension include one of the following lines into your LocalSettings.php depending on where you installed the extension:
require_once( "$IP/extensions/SidebarDonateBox/SidebarDonateBox.php" ); require_once( "$IP/extensions/wiki-tools/SidebarDonateBox/SidebarDonateBox.php" );
[edit] Configure
The HTML content of the donate button should be placed inside of the $egSidebarDonateBoxContent variable.
You may also customize the location of the donate button in the sidebar by using '* DONATE' in the spot you want it to be placed.
