ConfigurationEdit

Global settingsEdit

You can use the following configuration variables in your "LocalSettings.php" file:

Variable	Description	Possible values	Default
Theme color
`$wgMedikColor`	The Medik color scheme (navbar background, underlines etc.).	CSS colors (e.g. `'#ACFE00'` or `'blue'`)	`'#FFBE00'`
Site logo
`$wgMedikShowLogo`	Show logo in the navbar or in the sidebar. By default, the logo is hidden.	`'none'` (default) `'main'` (i.e. small logo in the main navbar) `'sidebar'` (i.e. big logo in the sidebar)	`'none'`
`$wgMedikLogoWidth`	Width of the logo in the main navbar (i.e. you have to set `$wgMedikShowLogo = 'main';` first).	CSS width (e.g. `'210px'` or `'2em'` etc.).	`'default'`
`$wgMedikUseLogoWithoutText`	Use only logo and hide the site name in the left upper corner of the wiki. Note that you have to set `$wgMedikShowLogo` to either `'main'` or `'sidebar'`.	`false` `true`	`false`
Other options
`$wgMedikMobileSitename`	If your wiki's name is very long, you can define a shorter one only for the mobile screen. On desktop, `$wgSitename` will be displayed as usual.	string e.g. `'ShortWiki'`	`null`
`$wgMedikResponsive`	If you need to disable the responsiveness of the skin (i.e. you don't want the skin to adjust to the screen size), set this to `false`.	`false` `true`	`true`
`$wgMedikContentWidth`	At large screens, the main content container (with articles, texts, etc.) is 9/12 of the screen width and sidebar menu takes 2/12 of the screen width. It means that 1/12 of the screen width on the right side remains white. This is the default and looks good. But there can be cases when you need your wiki to extend to the full width of the screen even on the large screens. Then you can use `$wgMedikContentWidth` variable in your "LocalSettings.php" file and set that to `'full'`. Then the main content container will take 10/12 of the screen width (and 2/12 remain for the sidebar menu).	`'default'` `'full'`	`'default'`

User settingsEdit

Basic font sizeEdit

Every user is able to change the default font size in their user settings. It's found on page "Special:Preferences" under the skin preferences.
