== Description ==
Admin Links is an extension to MediaWiki that defines a special page, "Special:AdminLinks", that holds links meant to be helpful for wiki administrators; it is meant to serve as a "control panel" for the functions an administrator would typically perform in a wiki. All users can view this page; however, for those with the 'adminlinks' permission (sysops/administrators, by default), a link to the page also shows up in their "Personal URLs", between "Talk" and "Preferences".

Admin Links provides a hook and an API for other extensions to be able to add their own links and sections to the page.

You can see an example of this page with additional links and sections added by other extensions here.

MediaWiki already provides a "Special:SpecialPages" page, which lists the special pages for all the extensions installed on the wiki, which may lead you to wonder what the need is for the additional "AdminLinks" page. However, there are a number of important differences that make "AdminLinks" useful:
:*"SpecialPages" holds links to every special page in the wiki, including many (such as Unused categories) that are not specifically helpful to administrators; "AdminLinks" attempts to link only to the administrator-specific ones
:*"AdminLinks" can hold links to pages that are not special pages, such as the "Edit sidebar" page and documentation for various extensions
:*Finally, the Admin Links extension puts a link to "AdminLinks" in administrators' personal tools, which makes things more convenient.
== Installation ==

=== Download ===
You can download the Admin Links code, in .zip format, [https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-AdminLinks/archive/0.4.zip here].

You can also download the code directly via Git from the MediaWiki source code repository. From a command line, you can call the following:
<pre>git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/AdminLinks.git</pre>

=== Activation ===
Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
<pre>wfLoadExtension( 'AdminLinks' );</pre>

=== Configuration ===
If you want to have the members of groups other than 'sysop' see a link to the AdminLinks page among their navigation links, you can also add lines like the following after it:
<pre>$wgGroupPermissions['my-group']['adminlinks'] = true;<pre>

=== Extensions using Admin Links ===
:*Cargo
:*Data Transfer
:*Maps
:*Page Forms
