Installation instructions for SemanticComments v1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------ Requirements: ============= SMW 1.8 / MW 1.19 Installation: ============= Copy the folder SemanticComments into the extensions folder of MediaWiki. SemanticComments will then already work, if you activate it in LocalSetting.php (see below). Activating SemanticComments --------------------------- The extension is activated by adding the following lines to LocalSettings.php: include_once('extensions/SemanticComments/SemanticComments.php'); enableSemanticComments(); Import of the ontology ---------------------- SemanticComments comes with a small ontology to provide functionality for displaying and querying existing comments and some icons. For that go to Special:Import, select and upload '/extensions/SemanticComments/import/SemanticComments.xml' To use the delivered icons you need to upload the following files in your wiki: '/extensions/SemanticComments/skins/icons/bad_active.png' '/extensions/SemanticComments/skins/icons/neutral_active.png' '/extensions/SemanticComments/skins/icons/good_active.png' '/extensions/SemanticComments/skins/icons/defaultuser.gif' '/extensions/SemanticComments/skins/icons/Comment_icon_crystal.png' Please be sure that you keep the original file names. Now you can enter {{ShowComments|show=True}} to any article where you want to get a list of all 'related comments' and a form that allows you to enter new comments. Options: ======== All configuration options are defined and described in /SemanticComments/SemanticComments.php. To reformat the style of existing comments or of the comment form, use the provided Cascading Style Sheet in '/skins' directory.
