This extension adds a <soundex></soundex> tag to enable generation of Soundex codes from within MediaWiki.
It is essentially just a wrapper for PHP's built-in soundex() function.
UsageEdit
To generate a soundex code, simply place the name between <soundex></soundex> tags.
For instance,
<soundex>Kurt</soundex>
will generate
- K630
FilesEdit
There is only one file, the one is Soundex.php.
Simply create a Soundex directory in your extensions directory and place the Soundex.php file there, then add the following to your LocalSettings.php file:
require_once("extensions/Soundex/Soundex.php");
