Clicky Analytics with Mediawiki

This is one of those posts I’m making for the benefit of anyone who googles, wondering whether there’s a Mediawiki extension to integrate Clicky Analytics.

As of right now, there’s not, but there is a good explanation of how you can put some custom code in your LocalSettings.php to integrate any analytics stuff that you like.

Here’s a generic version that will work for any analytics system, hopefully cut-and-pasteable. It works fine on my Mediawiki install right now (version 1.20.x) but is not guaranteed for any future versions. Or, well, it’s not actually guaranteed for this one, now I think about it. Use it at your own risk, is what I’m saying.

Note that you have to paste the analytics code from your provider in around line 16.
