Features

SocialTopics provides the SocialEntity types discussion and topic.

Warning!Pages in the namespaces SocialEntity and User are indexed by search engines by default until prior to version 3.1.13. If you run a public wiki with an earlier version, you should exclude these namespaces from being searchable unless you want these pages to be indexed by public search engines.

At the bottom of each content page, the social entities associated with the page are displayed, filtered by the topic type.

The discussion page is completely replaced by the page view of the SocialEntity type discussion. It displays a timeline that lists the social entities of type topic that belong to this discussion. In addition, free text can be entered at the beginning of the discussion page just like on a standard MediaWiki discussion page.
