Chameleon 1.0

Released on 19-Oct-2014

After nearly 1.5 years in development status, this is the first official version of the Chameleon skin for MediaWiki.

It contains the following layouts:

  • standard features a big logo, a horizontal nav bar containing the sidebar navigation links to Main Page, Recent changes, etc. The personal tools (user page, preferences, etc.) and the page tools (discussion, edit, history) are kept as textual links above and below the nav bar. Same goes for the search bar, it is kept above the nav bar on the right side of the page.
  • navhead integrates the (now smaller) logo, page tools, personal tools, and the search bar in the nav bar, leading to a more content oriented look.
  • fixedhead takes the nav bar out of the content grid and puts it at the top of the page over the full width of the browser window. The nav bar stays fixed at its position when the page is scrolled.
  • stickyhead is similar to fixedhead, only it has a secondary menu bar on top of the main nav bar. When the page is scrolled, the secondary menu will scroll with the page, while the main menu will scroll only up to the upper window border and then stay there.

This version contains the following components:

  • Cell
  • Container
  • FooterIcons
  • FooterInfo
  • FooterPlaces
  • Grid
  • Html
  • Logo
  • MainContent
  • Menu
  • NavbarHorizontal
  • NavMenu
  • NewtalkNotifier
  • PageTools
  • PersonalTools
  • Row
  • SearchBar
  • SiteNotice
  • Structure
  • ToolbarHorizontal

Known Issues:

  • The available documentation is insufficient. For now, if you have questions, just ask.
  • Many of the lesser used page elements are not properly styled yet.

Compatibility:

  • Tests have been run against MediaWiki 1.22 and 1.25
