Warning: Display title "Namespace CSS manager" overrides earlier display title "Creating page lists with DPL3". The extension NamespaceCSS allows users to apply different CSS styles to different namespaces.

Creating the styles for a namespace[edit | edit source]

The link Namesapce-CSS Manager in the menu Global actions > Management opens the page Special:NamespaceCSSManager. This page lists all namespaces and the link to their associated CSS page.

Namespace-CSS Manager
Namespace-CSS Manager


To add or overwrite the styles for a namesapce:

  1. Click on the source page link for the namespace.
  2. Enter your CSS-code directly in this page. Example: MediaWiki:User_css affects all pages in the namespace User.
  3. Save the page and review your changes on the pages in the affected namespace.
