Note: Version 0.1 works with MediaWiki 1.5 and up. Note, however, the Editor's Map will only be available if you're using MediaWiki 1.6 or greater.
Basic Installation in Five Easy Steps[edit | edit source]
1. Download this file, and unzip it into a directory on your webspace: Download!
It should create a "Tiles" folder with five subfolders for the zoom levels.
2. Go sign up for a Google Maps API key from the Google website.
3. Download this file, and unzip it into your "extensions" directory: Download!
It should create a "GoogleMaps_Arda" folder with a few files.
4. Go in this folder and add this to the beginning of the EditorsMap.js:
var wgGoogleMapsTiles = 'path of the tile images folder from step 1 goes here (e.g. "http://www.testsite.com/Tiles")';
5. Add this to the end of LocalSettings.php in the MediaWiki directory (but before the final "?>"):
$wgGoogleMapsKey = "your key from step 2 goes here"; $wgGoogleMapsTiles = "path of the tile images folder from step 1 goes here (e.g. "http://www.testsite.com/Tiles")"; require_once( "$IP/extensions/GoogleMaps_Arda/GoogleMaps.php" );
If all went well, you should be good to go!
