Vector is a MediaWiki skin that has been MediaWiki's default skin since 2010, replacing MonoBook .

In recent years the skin has undergone a number of technical changes, e.g. the switch to Mustache to support the construction of Skin:Vector/2022 as part of the work done by the Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements initiative.

Installation

  • If using Vagrant , install with vagrant roles enable vector -p

Manual installation

  • Download and place the file(s) in a directory called Vector in your skins/ folder.
  • Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
    wfLoadSkin( 'Vector' );
    
  • Yes Done - Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the skin is successfully installed.

Setting the default skin to Vector

A default skin should be set for new users of a wiki by setting the variable $wgDefaultSkin in LocalSettings.php to the lowercase skin name specified in the skin file:

$wgDefaultSkin = 'vector'; // "Legacy" Vector (2010)
$wgDefaultSkin = 'vector-2022'; // New Vector (2022)

Configuration

$wgVectorUseIconWatch

Watch and unwatch as an icon rather than a link.

  • Supported values:
    • trueuse an icon watch/unwatch button
    • falseuse watch/unwatch text link
$wgVectorUseIconWatch = true;

$wgVectorResponsive

MediaWiki versions:
1.26 – 1.35

Experimental setting to make Vector a responsive skin that adapts to mobile phones. false by default.

  • Supported values:
    • trueUse responsiveness to improve usability in narrow viewports
    • falseNo responsiveness
MediaWiki versions:
1.30 – 1.35

Logo used in print styles.

Keys are 'url', 'width', 'height' (in pixels). Note that this solution only works correctly if the image pointed to by 'url' is an SVG that does not specify width and height attributes, or its width and height match the corresponding variables below. Alternatively, a PNG or other type of image can be used, but its dimensions also need to match the corresponding variable below. That in turn may result in blurry images, though.

For MediaWiki 1.36 and higher, the print logo will simply be set from Manual:$wgLogos .

$wgVectorPrintLogo = [
	'url' => 'https://en.wikipedia.org/static/images/mobile/copyright/wikipedia-wordmark-en.svg',
	'width' => 174,
	'height' => 27
];

$wgVectorShareUserScripts

Setting to false prevents Vector 2022 skin from loading MediaWiki:Vector.css and MediaWiki:Vector.js.

Smartphone and tablet design

Vector will work on many mobile devices, but it is not fully optimized for mobile devices. This latest version of Vector, Vector 2022, has better support for mobile devices.

History of the skin

Vector was created in 2009 as part of the work done by the Wikipedia Usability Initiative . It became MediaWiki's default skin in 2010 (MediaWiki 1.17 , git #2833b07a), succeeding Skin:MonoBook . In 2022, as part of the MediaWiki 1.38 release, it was updated as part of the work done by the Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements initiative.

Vector provides a number of usability improvements over its predecessor MonoBook. It was the first skin to separate the flat level content_actions into the categorized content_navigation.

At the beginning, the basic functionality was included in the core skin, while some of Vector's special features were handled by a separate extension, Extension:Vector . In MediaWiki 1.22, the extension was merged into the skin.

Dark mode customizations

A dark color scheme can be applied to Vector using CSS , for example with user styles, [1] which are enabled by default. Dark mode derivatives of the Vector skin, such as Skin:DarkVector , can be loaded into a wiki as a separate option.

Note all of these are supported by third parties, not the Wikimedia Foundation .
