What I did (though I'm not sure whether this is the "correct" way) was
to create a Site.MenuBar page in my own wiki, and then create a
wikilib.d directory in pub/skins/katskin, and (from the command-line)
move the pmwiki/wiki.d/Site.MenuBar page to
pmwiki/pub/skins/katskin/wikilib.d/Site.MenuBar

I also added to katskin.php the code to make PmWiki read the wikilib.d
directory when looking for wiki pages.

## automatic loading of skin default config pages
global $WikiLibDirs, $SkinDir;
    $where = count($WikiLibDirs);
    if ($where>1) $where--;
    array_splice($WikiLibDirs, $where, 0, 
        array(new PageStore("$SkinDir/wikilib.d/\$FullName")));

I stole this code from someone else's skin, so I can't say that I
understand it fully, but I think what it does is add the wikilib.d
directory in your skin directory to the end of the array which contains
the directories where PmWiki looks for wiki pages.
