Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can point me into the right direction of how to edit the 'Vector' skin?
Basically since I'm really new to Mediawiki I just made a copy of the skin folder and php file called vectorx in both cases: folder: vectorx php file: VectorX.php so far I've been following these pages on the Mediawiki site: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning/Tutorial http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning/Vector http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning/Vector/Example however, the last two links are the best though unfortunately they're for up to Mediawiki 1.19. My setup is running Mediawiki 1.22 installed from the Archlinux repos. Since this is a really basic test setup I'm using, I have elected to go for nginx and sqlite. The wiki is accessible and everything is fine. Using the modifications described in the links above the new skin shows up as VectorX however, the menus aren't shown?? Just everything from "Main Page" down... with no formatting. Having no experience with Mediawiki prior to this but reading the man/faq/wiki pages it seems that the 'Vector' skin is now integrated into the core of the wiki. How does this affect editing and replication? At the moment all I would like to do is replicate 'vector' in 'vectorx' in order to learn how to modify it in terms of menus, backgrounds and other bits and pieces.
