at the bottom of the section? [00:04:33] horror. [00:06:31] x99: make a template for it. {{clear}} or something.. [00:08:50] rob: that works. [00:08:53] Thanks [00:09:36] I would have thought this was the default behavior. [00:10:27] It's hard for me to imagine a circumstance when it's acceptable for images to float into a new section. [00:10:58] x99: the problem is that the "clear" is not a property of the image, but of the next section. [00:11:13] Yes, that's what I was thinking. [00:11:16] and you do *not* want all sections always to shift down below any boxes you may have on the roight side [00:11:27] Possible to change the CSS for

in this way? [00:11:36] Right. Just images. [00:11:38] yes, sure, *if* you want that [00:11:59] you can't tell clar only to work for images. it applies to anything that floats [00:12:04] right floating TOC's a pretty useful. [00:12:11] and infoboxes [00:14:45] anyway to do this without a
? [00:15:05] Can I just use ? [00:16:22] yes [00:16:43] ideally, you'd apply the style to the h2 - but you can't really do that the wiki way. [00:16:59] hm, actually, the browser might ignore an empty span. [00:18:43] mm, doesn't work [00:20:19] Hi, i've been given an sql backup of a mediawiki installation for version 1.3.9 - i'd like to install mediawiki and restore the data from this backup. I was wondering what the best plan would be, to install the latest 1.3 relese, restore the data from the backup and then update? [00:20:56] hi all, someone has an idea to run an extension? i downloaded one of them, put it in /extensions/, after i include "require_once(...)", but it doesn't work -_- [00:21:53] What would cause this? http://code.gnu-designs.com/Wikipedia_it_001.png [00:22:22] doesn't work either under safari. [00:22:31] backtrack-fr: "doesn't work" how? [00:22:38] ugh, firefox! [00:23:11] Duesentrieb_, do you remember my redirection problem ? it works well now! ^^ [00:23:15] setuid: broken table syntax. may be caused by a missing template or something like that, too. [00:23:27] backtrack-fr: no i don't :) [00:23:35] lol [00:24:03] the extension doesn't work... it does nothing [00:24:17] well, maybe it's broken ? [00:25:42] anyway, gotta go to bed [00:25:51] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EmbedVideo < [00:25:56] look [00:26:23] so when i edit my wiki, for exemple i put in "{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg}}" [00:26:35] both. [00:26:35] the page give me exactly the same input [00:26:54] What's #ev ? [00:27:03] it's a syntax to include video [00:27:18] is it a plugin? [00:27:40] The EmbedVideo Extension is a MediaWiki extension which Adds a parser function called #ev for embedding video clips from popular video sharing services. [00:27:59] So what's the problem? [00:28:43] The extension doesn't work [00:28:48] there is no video [00:28:59] Duesentrieb_, But which template? [00:29:30] Duesentrieb_, As you know, I'm mirroring all of these wikis locally for Plucker conversion, and need to be sure there are no missing bits before I convert it all [00:30:41] Is there an extension to permit case independent page names? [00:30:47] i.e not just in the first letter? [00:30:55] This is a major pain [00:31:39] $wgCapitalLinks = 0; [00:33:24] Hrm, the tables/css works with the monobook skin, but not a few of the others [00:36:59] Is there some magical mojo that lets me know when I'm missing a template, and which template it is?

in code [00:43:46] x99: no(t yet) [00:45:13] is there a reason not to expose the list of all available user groups on a wiki? [00:45:33] is it for any reason a security breach? [00:45:57] setuid: wgCapitalLinks is just for the first letter, right?

I want to have monthly polls, and to make it as seemless as possible i'd like it to be within mediawiki. I've heard of some poll types, but is anyone aware of any? [00:52:09] Leefmc, Drupal [00:52:22] mediawiki poll system [00:52:24] :) [00:53:07] i don't want to force users to register on dupal just to poll. Plus there are some things that i'd want to be integrated into the wiki system (poll logs, details, etc) [00:54:09] Then use ldap behind mediawiki and drupal, problem solved [00:55:05] yes, not a bad idea. [00:55:30] even though ldap itself is absolutely revolting. [00:58:02] Is there a doc out there somewhere that describes which templates are needed to make a local mirror of Wikipedia work like the public version? [01:02:02] setuid: you'll net all of them -- many thousands. [01:02:06] neeed [01:02:26] I have all of them here, I just need to know which ones to requrie [01:02:30] er, require [01:03:17] all of them, obviously! [01:03:24] There are only 160 of them [01:03:44] wikipedia only has 160 templates? [01:04:00] les impossible! [01:04:18] The svn tree, under ./extensions/ only has 160 [01:04:34] You are confusing extensions and templates!

[14:49:31] Tango42: people are lazy. post a link. [14:51:28] Duesentrieb_: sorry, the way I have my IRC client configured, those automatically turn into links. I forget not everyone uses the same config. [14:51:33] i'll get the links [14:51:41] http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9026 [14:51:48] http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10449 [14:55:15] Tango42: the first one i have no idea about. the seconds one looks good, although it might be better to return the prefixed title, no? [14:56:45] you mean with the Special: bit? Possibly. I was basing it on PAGENAME which doesn't include it (if memory serves). [14:57:06] yea, right [14:57:28] Tango42: also, the term is "canonical", not "generic", right? [14:58:00] yeah... I got "generic" from the feature request. I've been thinking canonical would be better... [14:59:38] thinking about it, I don't think it's useful to include the prefix. The use given in the feature request is for interwiki linking, so it would have to the be canonical prefix, which is always "Special", so it's easier to just let people include that bit themselves if they want it [15:01:02] yea, i guess you are right [15:05:18] 03(mod) Parser function to resolve special pages to canonical names - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10449 +comment (10thomas.dalton) [15:05:52] Duesentrieb_: I've uploaded a new patch with CANONICALNAME instead. It's a couple of characters longer, but it is the more standard term. [15:06:04] thanks for the advice [15:06:37] hm... if i have a MediaWiki message that has a special syntax (kind of like MediaWiki:Sidebar), would it be sane to hook in custom rendering for that page? i.e. it wouldn't render using wiki syntax rules, but using special rules for that special syntax? [15:07:18] Tango42: np. i'm not into applying other peoples patches atm though... perhaps wait for rob to roll in. [15:07:42] Duesentrieb_: sure, will do. [15:08:58] Duesentrieb_: It would probably be useful, but maybe not sane... the parser is evil enough as it is without adding in special cases for individual pages... [15:09:49] well, the idea was rather to bypass the parser completely. but it's a bit non-obvious. i guess i'll make a special page instead. [15:10:03] Duesentrieb_: might be better to decide on a special syntax that renders nicely anyway [15:10:46] Duesentrieb_: Bypassing the parser still requires putting a special case in parser.php, doesn't it? [15:10:50] Tango42: well... do you know how MediaWiki:Sidebar works? [15:10:58] wha? no. [15:11:07] special pages can be hooked in cleanly. [15:11:30] but making a "normal" page behave like a special page (i.e. bypass the parser), that would be ugly, probably [15:11:47] Duesentrieb_: not off the top of my head, no. Special pages are fine, but a mediawiki message isn't a special page. [15:11:55] but that trickery would not be in parser.php, but when the Article instance is created [15:12:05] yea, exactly [15:12:23] i'll make Special:Gadgets a preview of MediaWiki:Gadgets [15:12:37] ok, so the special case goes in article.php - still ugly. (I lose track of what happens in what file...) [15:12:46] that's probably the best way, yes [15:13:41] What can a user do to get a mainpage like Wikipedia has? Is that just coded by hand? [15:14:30] <^demon> akahn: It's mostly controlled from templates. [15:14:36] akahn: just view the source of Wikipedia's main page and you can see how it is done [15:15:06] Tango42: not good advice.. that's very tricky. [15:15:48] akahn: basically, it's done by hand, using normal html (div and/or table) and css features. wikipedia uses a lot of templates to split it up, but you probably don't need/want that. [15:15:51] Duesentrieb_: understanding the source for Wikipedia's main page? If you want to make a similar main page for yourself, you're going have to accept the trickyness [15:16:14] naw, you kan skip all the nested templates stuff. [15:16:21] i wouldn't advise doing it without templates - keeping it up-to-date would be a nightmare [15:16:31] Tango42: try to understand how the main page on mediawiki.org works - it drives me crazy every time :) [15:16:41] ugh [15:16:43] I mean [15:16:47] Wikipedia's main page is so simple [15:16:55] when comparing to MediaWiki.orgs :P [15:17:00] right :) [15:17:06] hey brion [15:17:16] i've never looked at mediawiki.org's source... i'll take a look now [15:17:33] Tango42: try to find out what includes what and when... [15:17:42] Duesentrieb_: gotcha. i'll get coding. how about their splash page, how is htat set up? [15:17:56] splash page? [15:18:25] Duesentrieb_: before you get to the main page, it has an image, and links to all the languages and then a search box [15:18:52] akahn: ah - that's not a wiki page. it's simply a static html page on wikipedia.org [15:19:10] 03yaron * r24461 10/trunk/extensions/SemanticForms/includes/SF_FormPrinter.inc: [15:19:12] Overhaul - all input validation and adding/removing of instances of multiple [15:19:14] templates is now done through Javascript instead of PHP. Also, 'TemplateField' [15:19:16] class now holds more data, so many functions take in less parameters; more [15:19:18] CSS styles are now stored in CSS file instead of inline; and various other [15:19:20] streamlining of the code.

[15:23:58] Duesentrieb_: OK, i've taken a look at mediawiki's main page. It appears that everything is done in subpages of the main page template, with one page for each part in each language. These are then transcluded into the main page template using the main page/include template, and then that is transcluded into the main page. Did I miss anything? [15:24:04] how about asking him *why*? [15:24:29] Tango42: i dunno, every time i try to edit this, i go crazy :) [15:24:39] 03yaron * r24465 10/trunk/extensions/SemanticForms/skins/SF_main.css: More definitions, for use in actual forms [15:24:40] it's hard to find the right bits, sometimes [15:24:45] Duesentrieb_: the trick is not to edit it. [15:25:17] indeed. write once [15:30:22] Duesentrieb_: i think he probably just wants us to copy everything wikipedia does ;) [15:30:30] 03kim * r24466 10/trunk/extensions/Wikidata/OmegaWiki/small/ra3.pl: minor changes indeed [15:30:53] What is the code to embed another article in an article? [15:31:38] akahn: {{:Article name}} [15:31:41] <^demon> {{:article name}} [15:31:48] Thanks! [15:31:55] akahn: {{foo}} embeds Template:foo, {{User:foo}} embeds User:Foo, {{:foo}} embeds Foo. [15:32:01] or {{NAMESPACE:article name}} if it's not in the main namespace [15:33:00] Is there any way to parse or format that output? [15:34:23] akahn: I don't think so.

It just includes the wikitext in the article as is (give or take some noinclude, includeonly and onlyinclude tags) [15:34:33] I'm trying to use html form in my wiki page.

[16:05:50] well i'm trying to use Extention:Newest_Pages, that Jack_Phoenix referred me to, and i want it to display only pages from the main namespace, not newly uploaded images, newly created users, etc. it seems to have a way to refer to specific namespaces, but not a way to limit to the main namespace. do you see a way? http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/NewestPages/README [16:08:11] akahn: well, i used "main" for that when writing Extension:News - at least I think i did. don't know about NewestPages [16:09:08] grr... i need to inject js and css code into the head tag - below the site stuff, but above the user stuff. i can's see a way to do it that would be compatible with existing custom skins... [16:09:36] Duesentrieb_: i tried using Main but it still includes the other stuff [16:09:45] i can use OutputPage::addScript fopr injection, but that goes below the user stuff :( [16:09:53] akahn: well, did you try ""? [16:10:47] that seems also to not work. wouldn't it just treat that the same as not having an argument? [16:11:56] akahn: yes, if it's coded badly. [16:12:28] or maybe the parser eats empty attributes? i don't know... i havn't even looked at how NewestPages works :) [16:12:39] Duesentrieb_: well that's what it seems may be the issue. is there a way to restrict certain namespaces [16:12:42] me extension is better anyway (by definition) [16:13:04] my, of course [16:13:37] Hi brion. :) [16:13:51] Duesentrieb_: yours does the same thing? [16:15:34] Greetings, quick question: I'm looking into using mediawiki for a community web site. I'd like to customize it to look like the average Web site and restrict editing etc. I looked through the FAQ and searched google - no luck. Would anyone know of a how to or something like that on how to customize the look of mediawiki and access control? [16:15:55] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access [16:16:32] akahn: i don't know really, i guess it does. have a look :) [16:16:41] 03raymond * r24467 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/MessagesDe.php: Updates German [16:17:33] thiessenp: access control is in the faq. look for "restricting access". customizing the look falls under "skins" - that's a bit tricky, but tehre's an example somewhere on mediawiki.org i think [16:17:55] Ok, thanks - I'll take a closer look. [16:20:45] Duesentrieb_: duh, i shoulda read that help file better... it says to use - for the main namespace [16:23:58] 03robchurch * r24468 10/trunk/extensions/BackAndForth/BackAndForth.class.php: Don't assume we're getting a ResultWrapper back from Database::select(); incompatible with 1.10.x otherwise [16:24:11] 03raymond * r24469 10/trunk/phase3/RELEASE-NOTES: Update for r24423 by Rotem [16:24:30] brion: someone should pretty up image histories [16:24:48] 03(FIXED) rebuildLanguage.php bug with newlines - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10266 -need-review ; +comment (10raimond.spekking) [16:29:20] hm...

[18:22:35] newest [18:23:35] with something like this http://mediawiki.pastey.net/71593 - if the middle one isn't entered a blank line is still left behind, as opposed to the last bullet being a regular linebreak down from the first bullet [18:23:41] Is it? So that'll be 1.11alpha, bleeding edge, latest revision? Or perhaps you can actually give me the version number? [18:23:53] way to fix that? [18:24:10] :P 1.10.1 [18:24:59] You're attempting to use an extension, possibly EasyTimeline? [18:25:13] i have some but not timeline [18:25:24] its happening while trying to view a svg [18:25:53] could be related to the preview-image creating, because it says it can't create the preview [18:25:55] That would also make sense; the SVG rendering handler code will usually call wfShellExec. [18:25:57] How can I enable parsing some html tags(including div, span, directives like float, colspan and...) like wikipedias and other simillar wikis [18:25:59] ? [18:26:21] lmk: put the }} of the two first at the begennig of the next line [18:26:25] Soroush83: Those tags are whitelisted, the parser will clean and tidy them up as necessary and let them through; just use them. [18:26:40] how? [18:26:46] where? [18:26:53] In the wiki text of a page... [18:27:12] I've installed mediawiki 1.9. but it does not support them [18:27:34] DarsVaeda: The SVG rasterising code attempts to execute an external application to do the actual work, and your host has disabled PHP's ability to do this. [18:27:39] I can't use templates and other tags have been used in other wikis [18:27:42] Soroush83: IS this a public wiki? [18:27:58] ialexandre: the bullets are working, each one is on a new line correctly... although when the middle one isn't entered (and thus hidden), it leaves a blank line behind [18:28:03] this exec function - right? [18:28:05] know what i mean? [18:28:10] DarsVaeda: That is correct. [18:28:16] i guess there is no workaround, i think they wont activate it [18:28:25] Probably not, no. [18:28:28] one version of my wiki is in http://neyshabur.110mb.com/wiki/index.php/%D8%B5%D9%81%D8%AD%D9%87%E2%80%8C%DB%8C_%D8%A7%D8%B5%D9%84%DB%8C [18:28:50] so only thing would be to restrict svg for upload [18:28:52] but I have installed more extensions on my local wiki and it did not pay [18:29:52] Soroush83:
    works for me - see http://neyshabur.110mb.com/wiki/index.php/Sandbox [18:30:13] DarsVaeda: SVG isn't in the default list of uploadable images, so far as I recall.

[20:16:03] Before I look, let me just point out that the original CSS for the file histories thing that I did was based on Tim's CSS for Special:Imagelist; I was attempting to be consistent, and I pointed this out to Brion, who expressed a dislike for the style on Special:Imagelist. [20:16:19] ok [20:16:34] I have no personal interest in how pretty the table is, so long as it's not *ugly* or unreadable. I'd prefer it if we had some UI consistency. [20:17:02] Having said that, and looked at your example, I'm inclined to think the light borders might be an acceptable compromise. [20:17:25] And the kitty is cute, too. ;) [20:17:31] :) [20:18:00] Aaron doesn't seem too keen on the borderless approach, and I've got to admit, it does seem a bit less clear, so *shrug* [20:19:42] robchurch: ok, I will commit the change soon. [20:20:27] Perhaps we should just challenge brion to do something prettier. :P [20:23:47] we should build a wall along the border [20:26:00] 03(mod) SpecialPage hooks are broken - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10719 +comment (10seventowers) [20:28:35] on wikipedia i see some different classes such as "prettytable sortable", can anyone tell me where to find the code for these classes? [20:30:07] just check all CSS files ... [20:30:41] AlexSm - css files? [20:30:53] iam8up|brk: sortable means the table is eligible to be sorted using MediaWiki's built-in sorting script. [20:31:11] Other classes are usually defined in the sitewide CSS, e.g. MediaWiki:Monobook.css or MediaWiki:Common.css (both are wiki pages) [20:31:13] robchurch - if i apply the same class on my mediawiki i don't get the same borders, backgrounds, etc [20:31:37] it's different between the two mediawiki installs and we're using the same theme... [20:36:30] hmm the rss/atom option just disappeared from my toolbox [20:36:38] weird [20:45:58] 03(mod) Enable importing from all wikis to Meta - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10754 +comment (10cbrown1023) [20:46:37] O_O [20:47:09] you O_O [20:55:13] 03(mod) Users should be able to edit their own comments - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10755 +comment (10wikipedia.danny.b) [21:00:29] hi [21:03:38] I'm trying to put an extension into my Wiki. [21:03:39] The output of the variable prints just a link to a php-site with a variable. [21:03:39] this php makes a png which should be shown on the Wiki [21:03:51] but I can just see the link [21:04:23] can anyone say me, what I can try to? (please excuse my bad English!) [21:05:41] can I do a change, that I dont see the link to the png, but the result of the png? [21:05:52] maybe change something in the header? [21:09:45] 03raymond * r24476 10/trunk/phase3/ (3 files in 2 dirs): * Prettifying file history table a bit. Especially for histories with long comments/descriptions it look clearer now. [21:12:47] heloo [21:12:57] tell me there are some people here [21:13:32] its been years since i've been on irc [21:13:45] hi [21:13:52] hello [21:15:08] you've got a question? [21:15:22] can I help you (maybe?)? [21:15:30] oh yeah, sorry, i'm also in "wikimedia", i had some questions with some issues [21:15:38] particularly template issues [21:16:04] i'm sort of lost with advanced templates/transclusion [21:16:48] sry, im not as fast - my English istn't as good as yours [21:17:01] but I think, I can follow [21:17:16] ok, great [21:17:25] what i'm trying to do is similar to like a book [21:17:36] i want to get public domain poems/books [21:17:59] rortega007: like... Wikisource? [21:18:31] yeah [21:18:33] sounds nice [21:19:03] except a little different [21:19:25] like say we had a book of poems for one particular author [21:19:44] and it breaks down like the first page is "book of x" [21:19:55] followed by "all poems/chapters" [21:20:07] i've got that all squared away [21:20:22] but then for poems I wanted people to be able to edit per line [21:20:51] not edit i'm sorry comment [21:21:09] so say you've got line 1: "xxx yyy zzz" [21:21:15] but edit would be a great Idea too! [21:21:15] then line 2: " etc" [21:21:20] yeah i know [21:21:31] everyone is allowed to edit/create one line [21:21:31] and see this is where i run into some issues [21:21:48] sounds good [21:22:13] but say you got line 1, line 2 [21:22:13] wikisourcce is not for commenting text [21:22:28] i know, thats why i'm creating a different place for it [21:22:29] that would get a great poem I think. everyone makes 1 line a weak [21:22:46] a long and great poem made by a lot of different thinking people [21:22:46] oh sounds good, maybe thats a different direction we can collab on [21:23:06] **love wiki people** [21:23:24] but say after hiting "line 1:" [21:23:53] the user is directed to a page where "line 1:" is displayed before him and a place to add comments/commentary [21:24:12] so i've been running templates through my head for the past two days to figure it out [21:24:27] hm, sounds difficult! [21:24:34] u see what i'm saying [21:24:39] yes [21:24:43] I understand you [21:24:44] i'll break it down the way i'm seeing it [21:24:46] rortega007: you'd need to create onepage for every line, then [21:25:13] or put every line on an new variable [21:25:20] thats what i'm thinking [21:25:21] (create a new tag) [21:25:25] cuz i wanna parse the variables though [21:25:39] so instead of duplicating text over and over [21:25:44] which i could do, i guess [21:26:01] the list of lines for say book one would go as follows [21:26:08] I think one possibility would be, to place a tag [21:26:18] [21:26:22] [21:26:23] ... [21:26:29] that would be easy [21:26:41] put the context on a new variable [21:26:43] {{linelist|var1|var2}} [21:27:15] that would be the result [21:27:55] give me one sec, i wrote some ideas down, let me pull them up [21:28:02] can I ask you sth. maybe you can help me! [21:28:08] shoot [21:28:28] I put an new math-editor in my wiki [21:28:41] I just have to give the result out [21:29:01] I've got a variable with the alt-text and an link [21:29:06] link? [21:29:21] referring to an *.php and giving an variable [21:29:25] to this php [21:29:34] ah [21:29:41] this php-file makes an png-image with the output in it [21:29:53] which would be the answer [21:30:01] but on the wiki I can just see the link [21:30:06] yes [21:30:12] I just see the link [21:30:14] and ur having trouble parsing it trhrough [21:30:16] not the result [21:30:20] yes [21:30:29] do u have a website link [21:30:51] its running on my localhost [21:30:57] gotcha [21:31:06] but I can give you the link to get an imagine [21:31:13] ok [21:31:22] http://localhost/xampp/Wiki/index.php/mpr.php?stringid=5 [21:31:30] the link looks like that [21:31:56] he has to run the mpr.php and give out the png [21:32:05] but he just shows the link [21:32:13] you understand my problem? [21:33:31] yeah [21:34:22] I could give you a password and you could try to look at it, but I dont want to scream it out in an irc-channel [21:34:40] icq? [21:34:45] mm [21:34:54] u know i havent had icq since like i was 16 [21:35:01] does gaim support icq [21:35:01] lol [21:35:05] yes [21:35:09] I use gaim too [21:35:15] i'll nab gaim real quick [21:35:18] but you have to log in [21:35:35] i'm sorry "pidgin" [21:35:54] lol [21:36:01] yes, you're right [21:36:34] i got gaim on my linux boot side, not on this windows side [21:36:48] lol [21:36:50] ok [21:37:04] I love windows! (ironic) [21:37:04] one sec installing [21:37:12] i love windows for doing my business stuff [21:37:22] but for backend u cant go wrong with linux [21:37:26] thanks!

[21:39:17] gaim switched to pidgin, so i just didnt know if they sold out or anything [21:40:09] I had to install pidgin, because my Debian saw pidgin as something new, not as an update of Gaim [21:40:40] u got gchat [21:40:47] hehe [21:41:11] gtalk sorry, all these names for communicating [21:41:17] hehe, no [21:41:25] I never used it...

[21:49:06] renaming all the files will break it all i guess [21:49:12] hey [21:49:26] u having trouble installing?

[21:50:09] In the mean time, it's possible; you just have to rename the entry points. [21:50:22] 1.11.0 release date? [21:50:28] See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Robchurch/Getting_PHP_5_on_a_cheap_host. [21:50:36] godaddy [21:50:39] 1.11.0 release has been pushed back until after Wikimania. [21:50:49] rob: hmmm, how does that work? [21:50:55] How does what work? [21:50:59] hello [21:51:09] (mod) Enable importing from all wikis to Meta - http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10754 +shell; +comment (robchur) [21:51:19] It's a bot... [21:51:19] you refuted my comment, and you're right, but how does it work? [21:51:23] Oh, right. [21:51:31] :-P [21:51:34] $wgImportSources. You just set it programatically, which is quite trivial for us to do. [21:51:45] *robchurch can't spell [21:51:49] heh [21:51:51] *Cbrown1023 sees [21:52:11] robchurch use a delux godaddy accounts its like 7 bux a month [21:52:27] Why are you telling me this? [21:52:42] oh i thought u asked about cheap hosts that support php5 [21:52:49] robchurch, i will try to override the handler, but i cannot even get a ht password to work on this host [21:53:00] wait [21:53:12] aton`: Scroll down, there's a bit about what files to rename. ;) [21:53:23] hey folks, i've been looking for the solution for 6 hours now and I can find a solution, i'm running a 1.10.1 wiki and i'm trying to change the main page title, i've seen something in the faq about it but i cant even find what the faq is talking about in the css [21:53:26] can someone help me? [21:53:28] yes but its easier [21:53:33] to override the handler [21:53:42] err i mean cant find a solution >_< [21:53:46] thorky [21:53:53] yup? [21:53:55] "mediawiki:mainpage" [21:54:07] that edits the mainpage title [21:54:18] the only way to hide it is modifying monobook.css [21:54:59] mmh well if i edit it the homepage disapears, so i have to copy past the old main page first? [21:55:50] Well, yes, it is easier to override the handler, but you were asking about renaming the files, so I assumed you wanted to do that specifically. [21:55:54] *robchurch bashes his head on the desk [21:56:19] ok well doesnt matter copy paste isn't a problem [21:56:29] thanks anyway i'll try that out [21:56:46] and sorry for bothering [21:59:14] Thorky: It's a single line in the MediaWiki:Common.css page, usually. [21:59:23] Assuming your main page title is "Main Page", then add [21:59:34] body.page-Main_Page h1.firstHeading { display: none; } [21:59:44] Then go to the main page and clear your browser cache. [22:00:00] well my wiki's langage is french, so i'll have to look for mainpage and accueil i guess [22:00:30] Then it would probably be body.page-Accueil h1.firstHeading { display: none; } [22:00:39] ok lets see [22:01:13] The usual bit that trips people up is forgetting about client-side caching of CSS. [22:02:37] yipee it works :) [22:02:39] thanks a lot [22:03:12] robchurch: the pick-js-gadgets-on-pref-page thingy is coming along nicely. The only real trouble I still have is how to get the appropriate tags into the tag nicely. The only relatively clean solution i have found yet was to use OutputPage::addScript in a BeforePageDisplay hook. BUt that a) only works with SkinTemplate skins, and b) is put into the head *below* the user js/css, overwriting it. Any idea how to fix this? I don't even [22:03:12] have a good idea where to add another hook point for this... [22:03:56] robchurch: hm... btw, what's the point of putting the stuff from addScript below the user stuff anyway? shouldn't it all be above user stuff, always? [22:04:02] or would changing this break stuff?... [22:04:10] Changing it would break stuff, now. [22:04:28] Let me see.. [22:04:52] hi [22:05:29] You could hook Skin::doGetUserStyles() or Skin::reallyDoGetUserStyles() or Skin::reallyReallyPrettyPleaseWithACherryOnTopGetUserStyles() ? [22:05:59] robchurch: well, userjs is expected to be a url. [22:06:01] That seems to be where other "preferences"-oriented scripts and junk is added, presumably you could whack in some JavaScript. [22:06:15] while usercss is actual css oce (considting of a single @include). [22:07:12] Alternatively, you could cry a lot. [22:07:22] that's what i do [22:08:46] robchurch: hm... "This returns MediaWiki:Common.js and MediaWiki:[Skinname].js concate- [22:08:46] * nated together. For some bizarre reason, it does *not* return any [22:08:46] * custom user JS from subpages. Huh?" [22:08:49] gotta luve it [22:09:56] I try not to look at the Skin API very often, I find that reading horrendously-written code makes me sick. [22:09:56] "The returned script is sitewide and publicly cacheable and [22:09:56] * therefore must not include anything that varies according to user, [22:09:56] * interface language, etc." [22:09:57] so, that'S not the right place [22:11:21] getHeadScripts sounds good, but is not even used by MonoBook et.al. [22:11:21] We're talking about JavaScript snippets, so what's the harm in using OutputPage::addHeadItem() to do it? [22:11:45] addHeadItem? as opposed to addScript? [22:11:48] what's the difference? [22:11:52] Probably none. [22:12:05] Possibly they don't get injected in the same place. [22:12:48] no, it's exactly the same. from getScript: return $this->mScripts . $this->getHeadItems(); [22:12:55] But the ordering isn't so important for JavaScript; as long as it's after all the per-view globals, it doesn't really matter, surely. [22:13:12] sdo, that's what i have now. works fine, except that it overrides user stuff [22:13:26] "Overrides" in what way? [22:13:31] yea, one can live with the js stuff. but for css, it's bad [22:13:46] Well, for CSS you're going to have to come up with something clever. [22:14:16] well, for js, it's not that overriding is an issue. it's that users can used functions from gadgets in their user js - or at least not unless they defer execution into an onload handler [22:14:26] *can't [22:15:16] It would be nice if we had one bloody OutputPage member which is an array of CSS links or raw CSS, indexed by integer, such that it was included in that order. So you could attach CSS in front of, or after, or arbitrarily in between, existing items. [22:16:17] Skins would then inject their style tags or whatever, and ask the OutputPage to give them a chunk of HTML which contained all the other style stuff. [22:16:33] robchurch: i'd preferr named, with "insert before/after". you may run out of ints. [22:17:38] Duesentrieb_: with an "i'm afraid i can't let you do that, dave"-message for impossible combinations ;) [22:18:26] datura: naw, you'd specify before *or* after what. [22:21:05] Duesentrieb_: yes? just specify "a" before "b" and then "b" before "a".. [22:21:54] datura: then you have b twice, i guess [22:33:57] 03(NEW) Problem with wikilinks in template Parameter - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10757 normal; normal; MediaWiki: Templates; (idahosky) [22:40:22] hej [22:41:10] I was wondering if there is any estimation on number mediawiki installations or number of downloads in any time frames?

For trying to put information it makes it a bit hard since theres no

[23:51:00] formatting should be logical, not physical [23:51:11] let the individual user's browser and style preferences determine the physical layout [23:51:20] you should concern yourself only with the logical organization [23:51:42] If I edit the page and go like, Line1Line2Line3, It'll show up as Line1 Line2 Line3, as opposed to say, Line1
