Design considerations for the Semantic MediaWiki
This listing is closed ... and superseeded by Create new skin
- we thanks to Neill Mitchell and Prescient Software for their help in development of the new style.
How to
The main principle is to have a skin per namespace. The skin BIF contains the settings for the Basic Internet, and the main page BasicInternet:Basic_Internet contains the following elements:
| Menu: Template:BIF_Navbar | |
|---|---|
| Picture: Template:BIF_Slideshow | |
| Template:BIF_About | BIF_News |
| Footer | |
Accordingly, the links for CWI (Main page) are
| Menu: Template:Main_Navbar | |
|---|---|
| Picture: Template:CWI_Slideshow | |
| Template:Main_About | News |
| Footer | |
In order to create a new skin for a namespace, do the following
- 1) copy the BIF skin, as well as the BIF*.php files into a new skin, e.g. GravidPluss
- 2) edit the css accordingly ... more info required
- 3) Upload a logo and a banner
- 4) Create templates and pages (see example of BIF in the table)
