==What is Preferences?==
'''Preferences''' is an extension allowing wiki administrators to change key settings of the wiki, without resorting to scripts and manual settings in LocalSetting.php file. These settings are wiki-wide, although some of them can be overriden on user level through [[UserPreferences]].
==Where to find the Preferences function?==
Firstly, you need to have administration permissions in order to call up Preferences. If you have the correct permissions, you will be able to see the link "Preferences" in the "Global settings" and then on "Preferences" as you see on the image below. Click on the link and you will be taken to the administration page.

==The functionality of Preferences==
The display shows different areas for the individual extensions.
::: [[File:PreferencesHD3.jpg|500x308px]]
Preferences page contains many sections that are represented by expandable tabs. By default all tabs are collapsed. More information on individual settings of each of these extensions you can find on those extension's pages.
For example:
