Miraheze[edit]
Miraheze is a free, non-profit wiki hosting service that uses [[<tvar|mw>Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki</>|MediaWiki]] version <tvar|1>1.34</> as its hosting engine, and commits to upgrade to the most recent stable version. Miraheze auto-installs several MediaWiki extensions on new wikis, with users have the option to enable many other extensions on the wiki (and request new ones), including [[<tvar|visualeditor>Special:MyLanguage/Extension:VisualEditor</>|VisualEditor]] and [[<tvar|flow>Special:MyLanguage/Extension:StructuredDiscussions</>|StructuredDiscussions]]. Miraheze is supported by user donations and does not include any advertising on wikis it hosts.
Extensions[edit]
Miraheze can download any MediaWiki extension, at the request of the operator of the wiki, provided that it passes a security review. Many of these can be found at Wikimedia's Git code repositories. To see extensions that are currently downloaded on Miraheze see their github.
There are also [[category>:Category:Extensions by Miraheze|Extensions by Miraheze]], available as free open source software.
Custom domains[edit]
If requested, Miraheze provides support for custom domains, as long as the domain is pointed to them </> as it is said here.
Code[edit]
Miraheze uses open-source code, and hosts it at GitHub.
Extensions, settings and permission management[edit]
Miraheze uses their own extension, called ManageWiki in order to allow users on individual wikis to enable/disable extensions, change a variety of settings (their logo, their favicon, etc.), change permissions and manage namespaces.
Issue reporting[edit]
Miraheze uses their own Phabricator for issue/bug reports as well as requesting some features for wikis.
