Can somebody please post what exactly you put into your LocalSettings.php for a client only install of this extension to access wikidata.org? Thanks.
Topic on Extension talk:Wikibase Client
What the section Wikibase/Installation#Adjust your LocalSettings.php describes should be all that's needed. Was this not successful? If not, what's missing for you?
Tried that and nothing works. I also looked at the advanced installation, and tried to copy those items and it did not work. If you got this to work with a 1.31 mediawiki, and the client only part of this extension, if you could just look at your LocalSettings.php file and just copy everything that you have in that file related to this extension it would be much appreciated. Maybe another extension I have installed is conflicting with this extension. i don't know. I just know that i followed the instructions a couple of times, and I could not get this extension to even load.
The only other item is that I don't have composure, so I was trying to manually install the extension. Did I miss some dependency either with a third party application or else another extension?
Please describe what "did not work" means. What error message do you get on which page in which namespace?
Having the libraries Wikibase depends on installed via Composer is a must. I'm not aware of a way to do this "manually".
Then that is where the problem is, because I did not use composer.
