The AjaxComments extension replaces the Talk page functionality with comments at the bottom of a page.
Usage
editThis extension replaces the standard MediaWiki talk page functionality by allowing to add comments at the bottom of a page or replies to existing comments. Authors can edit or delete any of their comments without responses, and sysops can edit or delete any comments. Deleting a comment with replies will also remove all the answers to it.
Installation
edit- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
AjaxComments
in yourextensions/
folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'AjaxComments' );
- Run the update script which will automatically create the necessary database tables that this extension needs.
