What can this extension do?

This extension allows you to setup user rights that are taken into effect over an entire wiki family/farm. This is ideal if you want to do something like wiki hosting, or manage a family of wikis for yourself, a business, your school, etc.

Usage

Simply follow the installation instructions below, and make sure you add the necessary require_once line for every configuration file of the wiki family. Please note that for this to work, you must be using a shared database ($wgSharedDB). After it's completely installed, you can visit Special:SharedUserRights on your wiki and start adding new shared user rights to the database.

Download instructions

Download it from SVN:

svn co http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/SharedUserRights/

Installation

To install this extension, add the following near the bottom of the LocalSettings.php file of every wiki on your wiki family:

require_once("$IP/extensions/SharedUserRights/SharedUserRights.php");

Next, run the queries in shared_user_groups.sql on your shared database, and you should be good to go.
