$wgMinervaCustomLogos

• Type: Array
• Default: []

Make the logos configurable.

Currently, copyright, copyright-fallback, copyright-width, and copyright-height elements are supported.

• copyright is the URL of the logo displayed in the header and footer
• copyright-fallback is the URL of the fallback logo displayed on non-supported browsers like IE8 or Opera Mini
• copyright-width (optional) is the width in pixels of the copyright image you want to display
• copyright-height (optional) is the height in pixels of the copyright image you want to display
• If the actual copyright dimensions are 200x30, then you may want to set the width and height to 100 and 15 respectively (in order to support retina screens).
• Note that if -width and -height are not used sysadmin should ensure the image used is appropriately sized (suggested dimensions < 120px width and 18px height).

Example:

[
  'copyright' => '/images/mysite_copyright_logo.png',
  'copyright-width' => 100,
  'copyright-height' => 15,
]

Example with fallback URL:

[
  'copyright' => '/images/mysite_copyright_logo.svg',
  'copyright-fallback' => '/images/mysite_copyright_logo.svg.png',
  'copyright-width' => 100,
  'copyright-height' => 15,
]

$wgMinervaAlwaysShowLanguageButton

• Type: Boolean
• Default: true

Whether to show the language switcher button even if no languages are available for the page.

$wgMinervaABSamplingRate

• Type: Number
• Default: 0

On a scale of 0 to 1, determines the chance a user has of entering an AB test. A test is divided into 3 buckets, "control" "A" and "B". Users that are selected for the test have an equal chance of entering bucket "A" or "B", the remaining users fall into the "control" bucket and are excluded from the test.

1 - would run test on 100% of users (50% in A and 50% in B, 0 in control). 0.5 - would run test on 50% of users (25% in A, 25% in B, 50% in control). 0.05 - would run test on 5% of users (2.5% in A, 2.5% in B, 95% in control). 0 would disable the test and place all users in "control".

Group assignment is universal no matter how many tests are running since both wgMinervaABSamplingRate and mw.user.sessionId() are globals.

Group membership can be debugged from the console via:

  const AB = mw.mobileFrontend.require('skins.minerva.scripts/AB')
  new AB({
    testName: 'WME.PageIssuesAB',
    samplingRate: mw.config.get( 'wgMinervaABSamplingRate', 0 ),
    sessionId: mw.user.sessionId()
  }).getBucket()

And since session ID is an input in calculating the group, reassignment occurs when clearing it: mw.storage.session.remove('mwuser-sessionId').

$wgMinervaSchemaMainMenuClickTrackingSampleRate

Defines the sampling rate for the MobileWebMainMenuClickTracking schema.

• Type: Number
• Default: 0.5
