The TalkBelow extension shows the talk page below the content. It also includes a friendly form to add new topics and handy reply buttons similar to those of Extension:DiscussionTools to reply to comments without having to visit or edit the talk page.

Installation

• Download and move the extracted TalkBelow folder to your extensions/ directory.
  Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/TalkBelow
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'TalkBelow' );
  

•  Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.

Usage

TalkBelow is designed to work out of the box and has no configuration options.

If you want to disable it for a particular page, simply add the __NOTALKBELOW__ magic word anywhere in the page. If you want to disable it for a group of pages, the easiest way is to add the magic word to a template shared by all those pages.

Note that this extension adds no styling to the talk section it creates. However, it wraps everything with convenient CSS classes so you can easily style it to your liking from MediaWiki:Common.css or similar.
