Quick video demo on how to rename a page title in the MediaWiki content management system. Set yourself up with administrator rights if you didn't do this already. This is a special 'system message' pages which you cannot modify without having administrator rights. If you have already created the new main page, you can simply just delete the old “Main Page”.įor a more complete and correct way to tell MediaWiki a new home page title, you should alter the contents of 'MediaWiki:Mainpage' to point to a different title. Rename it to the name you want (“Fclose Wiki”). To move the Main Page, log in as an Administrator and click the “Move” in the tool menu in the “Main Page”. MediaWiki:Mainpage should always contain the title, because it is a system message that is reserved for the title of the main page, so don't change it to MediaWiki:x. Then edit it so its content is the name of the page you want to be the main page. To change which page is the main page, in the search bar, type MediaWiki:Mainpage. Change the drop-down menu to "MediaWiki." Type Sidebar and click Go. To access this page, enter the title as shown into the "search" box and click Go or Click on Special pages in the toolbox menu.

The contents of the navigation bar can be edited using the MediaWiki:Sidebar message page. We can use a terminal program to SSH into your server in order to access that file. The LocalSettings.php file is a text file that is located in the root directory of your MediaWiki installation. It determines what URL that the pages will point the browser to when you click a link or button within the application. The MediaWiki URL setting is located in the application configuration file.
