Allow logo/link customization #22

Closed jdlrobson closed 3 years ago

jdlrobson commented 3 years ago

It would be nice if the skin could be used outside Wikimedia AU.

For logo: it should be possible to use $wgLogos['wordmark'] instead of the hardcoded SVG.

The footer could be configurable by wiki page or Hooks::SkinAddFooterLinks

Possibly something to be left to the end of the project, so you can focus on your main objective?

Yes that sounds like a good idea. I've been wondering about renaming it as well. The three menus could be defined in e.g. MediaWiki:WMAU-skin.json (I know they could sort of be done in MediaWiki:Sidebar but then they couldn't easily define their icons, and at the moment I want the skin to not need any changes to anything that Vector is using, so it can be installed alongside without drama).

It sounds like the top horizontal logo can be the wordmark, so maybe the bottom one can be the logo (i.e. 1x etc. from $wgLogos). Or are we allowed to create extra keys in the config var, e.g. $wgLogos['footer-logo']?

wgLogos can contain wordmark, icon, and tagline. I think icon is what you want for the footer not 1x

You can add non-standardized keys, but use the standardized ones wherever possible.

Feel free to update https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgLogos if anything looks out of whack in the documentation!

Done.
