Adjust Settings
Some settings can only be changed in a file called LocalSettings.php
. You can edit this file for your pod using SFTP. This file is already populated with some common settings, like database settings. You shouldn’t change those, but you can change most other settings. See here for a full reference.
Extensions and Skins Limitations
Due to the way the official MediaWiki Docker image is structured, installing additional extensions or skins through SFTP is not supported. The image only includes pre-installed extensions and skins, and does not provide access to the extensions
or skins
directories.
While you can configure existing extensions through LocalSettings.php
, adding new extensions or custom skins is currently not possible. This is a limitation of using the containerized version of MediaWiki.
