NumberOfWikis extension adds a new magic word, NUMBEROFWIKIS, to show the number of wikis on ShoutWiki. The extension fetches the amount of wikis from the wiki_list database table, excluding all deleted wikis. This value is cached for a day.

This extension is currently very ShoutWiki-specific.

If Extension:CentralAuth is enabled this extension does not need to be enabled as the magic world is already defined by CentralAuth. This is also the case for Extension:SiteMatrix.

Installation

• Download and move the extracted NumberOfWikis folder to your extensions/ directory.
  Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/NumberOfWikis
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'NumberOfWikis' );
  

•  Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
