basically question says. i've installed mediawiki v1.24.4 onto site , trying create references list article. default cite extension installed in .../[domain]/extensions/cite - version of cite installed mediawiki software automatically, should working.
the manual installation instructions add wfloadextension( 'cite' );
localsettings.php file. tried that, got following error:
fatal error: call undefined function wfloadextension() in /home/[web_host_username]/ on line 136
when add <ref>[text goes here]</ref>
, <references />
markup article currently, tags stay plain text.
i did read [question][2] asked putting cite extension editing toolbar, different issue can't work manually adding markup.
any appreciated.
the instructions you're following apply mediawiki 1.25 , newer. cite extension page:
to users running mediawiki 1.24 or earlier: instructions above describe new way of installing extensions using wfloadextension(), since mediawiki 1.25. if need install extension in earlier versions, instead of wfloadextension( 'cite' );, need use: require_once "$ip/extensions/cite/cite.php";
