Installation
[edit]- Download and move the extracted
DeletePagesForGood
folder to yourextensions/
directory.
Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/DeletePagesForGood - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'DeletePagesForGood' );
- Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
User rights
[edit]You can configure the user rights in LocalSettings.php :
Defaults from DeletePagePermanently.php:
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['deleteperm'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user']['deleteperm'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['deleteperm'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['deleteperm'] = true;
The extension introduces a new user rights deleteperm.
