[09:20:52] Hello. I have a site with a mediawiki/ subspace. Don't know how, but some bots found it and it and I got many connections scrapping everything :) All the SpecialPages, etc :) [09:21:39] Is there a simple way to rename the directory, from 'mediawiki' to something else, and so the URLs too ? [09:23:08] "subspace" in what? [09:23:29] why/how would renaming something solve some problem? [09:23:54] So the bots would not have the good URLs [09:24:42] instead of http://mysite.fr/mediawiki/, it would be http://mysite.fr/somethingelse/ [09:27:27] and then the crawlers would just find it again, and the AI crawlers would start again [09:28:13] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Handling_web_crawlers [09:28:35] Of course there is no link from mysite to mysute/mediawiki. But I pasted the mediawiki link on sevreal public sites :( [09:28:53] *several. Thanks for the link. [09:33:50] But of course it's a public wiki, so I don't want to block anonymous users. [09:35:02] Well I'll just try to rename 'mediawiki' everywhere, in the php conf file, in Apache, and in the filesystem. [09:36:28] Or simply reinstall mediawiki with another name. [09:42:23] Hum. It seems to be simple. Sorry.
