UserStatus is an extension that, together with the SportsTeams extension, provides the ability to post status updates that are associated with a social network (a sports team).

Requirements

• Extension:SocialProfile
• Extension:SportsTeams

Installation

• Download and move the extracted UserStatus 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/UserStatus
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'UserStatus' );
  

• Run the update script which will automatically create the necessary database tables that this extension needs.
•  Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Usage

When logged in, you can add a status update either via your social profile page (if you're a member of at least one sports network) or via the network page of a sports network.

User rights

The new delete-status-updates user right, which sysop and staff groups have by default, allows deleting other users' status updates than just your own.
