The FileExporter extension provides a link to the FileImporter extension on another wiki.

• Download and move the extracted FileExporter 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/FileExporter
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'FileExporter' );
  

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

• Extension:FileImporter
• Phabricator: Build a commons extension that moves files to Commons

This extension is being used on one or more Wikimedia projects. This probably means that the extension is stable and works well enough to be used by such high-traffic websites. Look for this extension's name in Wikimedia's CommonSettings.php and InitialiseSettings.php configuration files to see where it's installed. A full list of the extensions installed on a particular wiki can be seen on the wiki's Special:Version page.
