Installation

  • Make sure you installed the HitCounters extension which is required by this extension to work.
  • Download and place the file(s) in a directory called TopTenPages in your extensions/ folder.
  • Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file: 
    wfLoadExtension( 'TopTenPages' );
  • Configure as required
  • Yes Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

To users running MediaWiki 1.24 or earlier:

The instructions above describe the new way of installing this extension using wfLoadExtension(). If you need to install this extension on these earlier versions (MediaWiki 1.24 and earlier), instead of wfLoadExtension( 'TopTenPages' );, you need to use:

require_once "$IP/extensions/TopTenPages/TopTenPages.php";

Configuration

$wgTopTenPagesStartAtOne (disabled by default)
Enable this to always start the list numbering at "1", even if an "offset" attribute was set.
