[00:00:08] afaik there is at least one captcha in svn [00:00:18] the one used on wikipedia.org [00:06:47] 03rotem * r24889 10/trunk/ (2 files in 2 dirs): Update for he. [00:14:26] is it possible to make a picture be a link? [00:15:25] You can make an externaly embeded picture a link. Use the Clickthrough method. Or install either one of the Image Map or Image Link extensions. [00:17:46] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Extensions [00:17:51] cannot find image link there [00:18:03] 03david * r24890 10/branches/liquidthreads/extensions/LqtExtension.php: fixed a few bugs with history [00:18:40] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ImageLink [00:18:47] thanks [00:33:28] how comes that
is stiped to just
? is there a way to allow "name" for div tags? [00:42:38] <_Danny_B_> DerPapst: element
does not have attribute name (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/dtds.html#dtdentry_xhtml1-transitional.dtd_div), therefore it's been wiped out by tidy [00:43:26] <_Danny_B_> use id attribute instead, but be aware that its content is limited [00:46:18] yep that is exactly the problem ;) i want to use a javascript that gets these divs with getElementsByName() [00:46:51] use getElementById [00:47:58] In [XHTML 1.0] documents, this methods only return the (possibly empty) collection of form controls with matching name. [00:48:01] How about you do what we all do and just use getElementsByClass [00:48:08] what about document.getElementByClassName() [00:48:10] ? [00:48:24] ^_^ ClassName, whoops... I keep forgetting that one... [00:48:29] :-) [00:48:31] Np [00:48:31] that is what i'm using now [00:48:38] But that's not it [00:48:39] never mind [00:48:50] It's a function in Wikibits.js [00:48:51] I'm working on getStyleSheetBySelector() [00:49:00] should do the trick DerPapst :) class instead of name, works nicer too [00:49:12] I could work on the name, though [00:49:14] well then :P [00:49:16] getElementsByClassName( root, tagnames, classname ) [00:49:18] getElementsByClassName is non-standard, right? [00:49:22] as I remember it. [00:49:30] Dantman I didn't find that in the w3c spec [00:49:32] It's part of Wikibits.js [00:49:37] didn't find document.styleSheets in there either, heh. [00:49:38] DerPapst: What does your username stand for? [00:49:47] but it might even be best to just modify the class definition [00:49:59] DerPapst is german. translated would that be ThePope [00:50:21] (familiy name) [00:50:22] Dantman: so it's written in JS and slooooow. [00:50:48] Not that slow... [00:50:59] Especially if you use it right. [00:51:40] Use #bodyContent as the root, and only use 'div' elements. And you'll reduce what it has to itterate over. [00:51:53] Dantman: yeah. not for divs and spans, and not in the bodyContent. [00:52:09] there are pages containing quite a lot of these. [00:52:17] .oO(templates...) [00:55:46] <_Danny_B_> DerPapst: what exactly are you trying to program? [00:56:16] some sort of "Dynamic Wiki" [00:56:32] dynamic? [00:56:56] i'm sysop in the ipodlinux project and we have some problems wit organizing the wiki (installation instructions) [00:57:41] so we came up with the idea to let the user select their generation and hide everything that doesn't belong to thier generation [00:58:10] and that could be done with js and some pretty buttions. [00:58:18] *buttons [00:58:26] woohoo, it's working :) I can now alter class definitions and use that to hide all divs not belonging to the selected thing and show all of them that are \o/ [00:58:41] neat :D [00:58:43] and it's only 15 lines or something [00:59:21] http://dataghost.com/getStyleRuleByClassName.js.txt if anyone wants it [01:00:58] Do be carefull with depending on Style Rules. [01:01:09] <_Danny_B_> DataGhost: insertRule works only in Mozzilla AFAIK [01:01:24] oh that's funny, I only use Opera :) [01:01:27] From what I remember they are pretty different across the different browsers. [01:01:38] works on ff here [01:01:41] hm well this might be incompatible wiht mozi [01:01:41] oh [01:01:51] can anyone think of a way to look up the last revision of an article by a particular user? [01:02:28] DPL Might be able to do that. Or you could just look through their contributions and find it on your own. [01:02:33] i'd like to create a link to the last revision a particular person reviewed [01:03:00] IE fails :) as expected. I'll try to see if I can work around this [01:03:23] x99: Then that's easier... DPL should probably be able to do that. [01:03:29] <_Danny_B_> DataGhost: ie uses addRule() instead of insertRule() [01:03:48] nah. css.length is null in IE [01:03:49] now safari and koquerer are missing :P [01:04:11] s.length even [01:04:35] *Dantman has a Knoppix VM and a ARCH second computer on VNC if anyone wants a check on that. [01:04:47] ack [01:04:47] <_Danny_B_> DataGhost: addrule works different way [01:04:52] Kubuntu* [01:04:56] x99: take the first rev-tag from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&titles=Test&rvuser=Gudeldar [01:04:58] <_Danny_B_> document.styleSheets[1].addRule('PRE', 'font: 14px verdana') [01:05:01] T_T how do I mix those up. [01:05:28] Dantman: i can pm you the link if you want [01:05:37] meh [01:06:00] ^_^ Firefox/Opera, IE, then Konqueror/Safari [01:06:58] Firefox/Opera are the easiest to build for. Then you work on IE Compatibility because of the pain. And that way most things will be done and you'll only need a few tweaks for KHTML/WebKit. [01:08:14] nah. you work for FF, fix for opera and safari. the leave it, IE is not a browser anyone of importance uses. [01:08:21] lol [01:08:40] Or be lazy and depend on something like YUI which has compatibility for everything you'll need already. [01:08:42] ^_^ [01:08:47] maybe we shuld tell the users to throw IE in the "recycle bin" [01:08:58] uhoh I think it's document.styleSheets[0] for IE and document.styleSheets[0].cssRules[0] for other browsers :X [01:09:10] i don't know people using ie anyway. [01:09:32] I know an annoying one... [01:09:37] *DerPapst never used IE in his whole life [01:09:39] <_Danny_B_> datura: unfortunately still at least 60% does :-/ [01:09:59] _Danny_B_: probably opera faking to be ie ;) [01:10:20] XP YUI actually has the getElementsByClassName as part of it, lol. [01:10:40] oh no IE just doesn't convert stuff properly, it's .rules[x] [01:10:55] *_Danny_B_ is using 11 different browsers and some of them in different verions [01:11:05] O_o [01:11:09] ^ bored [01:11:16] *Dantman uses 3 [01:12:31] hi, dori [01:12:37] hello [01:15:00] I've started getting "Table 'fotowiki.fw_page_restrictions' doesn't exist" errors on my wiki which I just upgraded to 1.10.1. That table does indeed not exist. Is this a problem with the software, or did my database get corrupted somehow? [01:15:59] ok, getting works fine now, in IE, yes :P now I just need to fix the add-code [01:21:35] dori: What version did you upgrade from? [01:22:04] _Danny_B_ like this? http://dataghost.com/iestylesheetdebug.html :) [01:22:06] 1.10.0, but I'm not sure when the error first occurred (I just saw it when I tried to upload) [01:22:14] oh [01:23:31] I'm running 1.10.0 and that appears to be one of the standard tables. [01:23:49] Check your DB [01:23:57] Perhaps it's missing the prefix. [01:24:14] ok, time to look at my backups I guess, thanks [01:25:06] 03(NEW) add exclude redirects on backlinks or indicate redicrect in result - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10980 15enhancement; high; MediaWiki: API; (azatoth) [01:35:50] 03laner * r24891 10/trunk/extensions/LdapAuthentication/ (LdapAuthentication.php README): [01:35:50] * Changed README to point link to mediawiki.org [01:35:50] * Added a more explicit check in allowPasswordChange for local domains [01:37:19] finally, got it to work cross-browser. http://dataghost.com/getStyleRuleByClassName.js.txt [01:52:25] hey all [01:53:53] I got ~500 more edits Migrated... [01:54:05] at this rate... it will still take way longer than I'd like. [01:54:57] hi Animum [01:55:05] yo Whogben [01:55:11] oh wait... [01:55:24] the edits thing was supposed to go into #wikipedia-en [01:55:26] oopsie [01:56:02] I'm trying to adapt mediawiki for an online store system, and I'm not an old hand at mysql / php - I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions about it [01:58:12] I know nothing about PHP or MySQL. [01:58:13] about mediawiki, rather than mysql or php I mean [01:58:19] I'm just in here because of a bug [01:58:21] okies [01:58:27] I can answer a few questions, I guess. :-) [01:58:32] haha, awesome! [01:58:56] anyway, the model is this: Every product page is in a wiki, and users can append the page - post pictures of themselves with the product, talk about it, post information, etc [01:59:23] I need to be able to protect the top part - the "default" product area, from non-admin edits [01:59:28] any idea if this is already possible? [02:00:25] hi buzz [02:01:00] You could make a page in the MediaWiki namespace. [02:01:08] and do some customizations. [02:01:38] When you say make a page, you mean another method than simply adding an article, right? [02:01:52] (through mediawiki's existing systems) [02:02:35] Nah... what do you want to not be editable? [02:03:06] our product information, it'll have a few pictures and our description of the product [02:03:15] but, on the same page, I'd like users to be able to edit anything else [02:03:31] if I could protect just a section so that only admin can edit it it would be perfect [02:03:47] You could make a subpage of the main product page and manually protect every one of those. [02:04:05] ok [02:04:11] But... [02:04:20] and then embedd this suppage on the article page [02:04:26] stay around... there may be something someone else knows that I don't. [02:04:30] Oh yeah... [02:04:33] There's also the ProtectSectoon which lets you use tags. [02:04:38] with {{:Product/Description}} [02:04:42] Yep [02:04:57] If the default namespace the the product namespace [02:05:16] {{/subpage}} [02:05:23] And protect the /subpage. [02:05:45] Then the include can't even be removed. [02:05:47] ooh, that sounds perfect - what name should I look up more info on that under? [02:06:07] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ProtectSection [02:06:30] It should be good to use for now. [02:06:42] I fixed the glitch that broke the ability to add new sections. [02:07:09] And the code is in tags so people don't copy converted entities and have code broken. [02:07:59] Though, I haven't gotten around to fixing the fact that the hiding of the tags probably dosen't work when any are uppercase. [02:08:25] that looks perfect for our use - thanks Dantman! [02:08:35] one other question? [02:08:39] *no ? [02:08:43] *argh. [02:08:55] just ask if you have one... [02:09:17] ok, the other two things I'd like to do with it are A) display articles without the sidebar, in a subsection of the store page [02:09:45] Transclusion? [02:09:54] I'll have to look that word up [02:10:13] Just including another article into the current one, like Templates. [02:10:39] In {{ and }} [02:10:42] aha... that is the word i searched for :P [02:10:47] yeah, rather like that - except that I don't want to embed one article into another, but rather to display articles within my own framework [02:10:57] ^_^ My Wikia userpage is actually built up of over 15 pages. [02:10:58] rofl [02:10:59] ie: imagine my site has a sidebar and a topbar [02:11:08] in the lower-right I'd like just the article to display [02:11:20] without any other information associated with mediawiki with it [02:11:37] Including your external pages into MediaWiki, or including MediaWiki pages into your application? [02:11:45] the second [02:11:55] &action=render [02:12:17] That will render the page without the skin stuff. [02:13:45] (just tested) is it possible to render it with the skin for formatting etc, but without the left-bar of options, naviagation etc [02:14:25] afaik you can hide them with css [02:14:34] neat, thanks for the information [02:15:10] last question: I want to link up customer accounts with wiki accounts - know where in the code I should be looking for this? Logging into the store and the wiki should feel like the same thing to the user [02:15:24] i saw that today on somebodys monobook.js suppage on wikipedia.org [02:15:48] I've gotta run - thanks allot for your help! [02:16:06] uhh.. i've seen an extension that does that for phpbb and mediawiki [02:16:15] maybe that would be a startingpoint [02:17:22] I want to show a list of newly registered users on the front page of MW. What's the right way to do that? Do I go directly to the user table with SQL or is there some way to do it via an API? [02:17:48] whogben: Depends on which you want, you can use an AuthPlugin to make MW depend on the Store's accounts, or make the Store use MediaWiki's accounts, or you could setup a SSO and make both of them use the SSO. [02:21:13] i've insalled this neat systax highlightning extension that mediawiki.org uses as well. but how can i make it that e.g. MediaWiki:Common.js is using syntaxhighlighning without manually including [02:21:55] That has not been made. I was considering building an extension to do something like that. [02:22:57] so that is hacked into some php files then? [02:23:34] Where? [02:23:49] I haven't seen a wiki doing that without using the source tags in the pages. [02:25:05] e.g. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js [02:25:19] it includes the tag though [02:25:58] O_o strange. [02:26:08] but i guess that can be stripped wither [02:26:22] Dantman: SSO exists if you use openID and the openID plugin [02:26:43] Dosen't need to be openID [02:27:13] and when you check Special:Allpages at wikipedia.org -Y User namespace and search for .js or .css you'll see the same behavior without the source tags [02:28:02] I'm about to strangle myself. Anyone know how to make vim open to the same spot in the file, where it closed? this is the default behavior in rhel, and not in ubuntu. [02:29:11] Dantman: that is an example without any source tags http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Bakerq/monobook.js [02:29:20] Looking at the code [02:29:25] i've been trying to figure out how to do it for about an hour, and I'm trying to program :( -- ubuntu is not a developer friendly OS [02:29:26] Looks like there's a function to do that [02:30:07] Dantman: where are you looking at?

I get that part. But like if you want to define a new target like "photos-url" that points to an offsite link what do you do? [04:16:47] I think I figured it out. You have to make a new page for it in the MediaWiki namespace... So: MediaWiki:Photos-url. And then that page should have the external URL on it. [04:16:47] I wonder if that's documented somewhere [04:16:48] The final target would be photos-url|photos on the MediaWiki:Sidebar page [04:16:48] Okay, one mystery solved. Yay. [04:17:59] Can anyone help me figure out the best way to add a list of the latest 10 registered users to the main page of MW? Should I use PHP and SQL to go directly to the user table in the MW database? Or is there some way to do this using the API or something? [04:18:56] theres an extension to list new users [04:19:16] oh cool. [04:19:43] you can just use http://blah on the left instead of photos-url [04:20:33] Yeah, I knew that... I'm actually working backwards. Someone already setup a photo-url|photos target and so I was trying to figure out where photo-url was defined, and it was driving me CRAZY. [04:21:03] I sympathise. [04:21:29] Thanks for the help. I'll look into that extension. Is it easy to find?

[08:01:01] what about the php file modification and all [08:01:08] You have to do some configuring of the wiki still, but it shouldn't be much [08:01:11] i dont ned to do those stuff na? [08:01:24] how should i do that [08:01:33] can u please tell me the steps please [08:02:24] The link provided above should explain it ... if you have difficulty understanding its instructions, let me know [08:02:57] sure [08:03:02] one more doubt [08:03:53] iam trying do the formatting on my company's wiki page.So installing this there woudnt be a problem na [08:04:25] also where will i find the php files that i need to modify? [08:05:05] The only php file you need to modify is LocalSettings.php ... if it's your company's server I'd suggest you check with them before installing any new software on it [08:05:54] 03laner * r24893 10/trunk/extensions/LdapAuthentication/LdapAuthentication.php: * Added a check for php-ldap in the connect method. The plugin will now fail gracefully, and tell the user to either compile support in, or add the module. [08:06:06] Actually they have given me rights to do modifications on the wiki page.They only came up with this requirement of having thumbnailed images [08:07:15] where will be this localsettings.php? [08:07:58] Should be in the wiki root [08:08:43] My doubt is i ahvent installed any wiki software as such [08:09:18] Iam modifying the page by logging to the wiki page [08:09:32] So where will this root be present? [08:11:30] Oh, you can get to it from the wiki .. it's part of the file system, wherever you have MediaWiki installed [08:11:30] Where will this wiki root present? [08:12:35] I havent installed the mediawiki software coz our official wiki page is not using mediawiki [08:13:11] Oh, well if we're not talking about a MediaWiki wiki then I probably can't help .. what software are you using? [08:13:36] we are using wikipedia [08:13:49] i think meta-wiki [08:15:16] Wikipedia and meta-wiki are websites that run on mediawiki, not software ... are you just talking about a page on Wikipedia? [08:15:21] *amidaniel is very confused now [08:15:32] *dungodung defuses amidaniel [08:15:33] S [08:16:07] *amidaniel fails to go kaboom [08:16:16] My company has a separate project wiki page where all the individual project has their wiki page [08:16:45] We r one such project team who are developing the page for our project [08:17:22] So on that page we want put images of our team [08:17:46] thaose images should be in thumbnail format [08:17:49] *those [08:17:59] There lies the problem [08:18:07] I think now am clear [08:18:10] :( [08:19:56] Anybody there? [08:20:22] Mr.Amidaniel [08:20:22] R u there? [08:20:32] Can u please help me in finding a solution? [08:20:44] Sorry, yes, I'm here [08:20:55] Is this a public wiki? Can you provide a link to it? [08:21:11] No its a private wiki [08:21:23] thats the problem [08:21:26] :( [08:21:58] Actually i can say the syntax am using for displaying the thumb [08:22:12] it is [[Image:Someimagename.jpg|thumb]] [08:22:19] is this right? [08:22:24] Who's asking for SyntaxHighlight to support line numbering? 'cos it does. [08:22:44] robhcurch: ZJH [08:22:51] And since when? O.o [08:23:26] i dont know why its not working :( [08:23:38] For the past one week am trying to implement it [08:23:44] but its not working [08:23:49] Did they setup 1.0.X or 1.1.X ? [08:23:54] Traveler1: Yeah, that should be fine ... but is the wiki you're working on a MediaWiki wiki? Can you scroll down to the bottom of a page and tell me if ther's a little "Powered by mediawiki" logo? [08:24:14] No its not there [08:24:31] Can you goto Special:Version and tell me what you find there? [08:25:09] i want to say one more thing [08:25:29] when i tried to create an image link,that also dint work [08:25:50] when i aske dthe help desk,they told me that on mediawiki only it'll work [08:25:52] ca. r19325 is the answer to the earlier question. [08:26:59] Also my manager told me that its not mediawiki [08:27:12] Then ... what is it? [08:27:46] If it's not MediaWiki then no one here will be able to help you very much, I'm afraid, but you should likely at least know what software you're using before you try to fix it :) [08:29:01] Right now am at my home trying to find a solution.So thats y am not able to access the wiki page and let u know the version of the wiki page [08:29:19] I didnt know that we have to check the version [08:29:48] I can let u know the version of the software we re using on monday [08:32:25] What other wikis are available other than mediawiki/ [08:32:27] ? [08:32:37] Coz i know for sure its not a mediawiki [08:33:07] several -- http://www.wikimatrix.org/ [08:46:38] i think its mediawiki [08:46:59] coz am not able to do any kind of image editing or image linking [08:47:12] i went through the link u gave daniel [08:47:47] when i went through all the wikis,the syntaxes what i use matches with media wiki only [08:47:58] so now what should i do? [08:48:10] R u there,amdaniel? [08:49:31] hello daniel [08:49:34] r u there?

[12:16:31] thanks a lot [12:16:45] can you try to explain the problem to me? [12:18:31] There used to be some information on PHP's header page. [12:18:45] Ah.. there [12:18:51] http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php [12:19:18] "Remember that header() must be called before any actual output is sent, either by normal HTML tags, blank lines in a file, or from PHP." [12:20:20] The issue is that the headers need to be sent to the browser before PHP can start sending content data to the browser. [12:20:39] Once content starts, it can't send any more headers. [12:21:04] Those errors are saying that content has already been sent and it can no longer send the headers it needs to.

At one point I managed to do this, but it was just messy and bad. [17:53:30] Worby: actually, not QUITE [17:54:31] it gives me: [17:54:32] $wgNamespaceProtection[NS_CATEGORY] = array( 'emailconfirmed' ); [17:54:34] and [17:54:35] $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['editpolicy'] = true; [17:54:37] $wgNamespaceProtection[NS_POLICY] = array( 'editpolicy' ); [17:54:39] as examples, but I want to protect "Category" to sysop level, or will that restrict pages being added when someone uses [[Category:xxx]]? [17:55:28] what version do you use? [17:56:32] the example there [17:56:46] blocks editing of non-talk pages [17:57:10] what you want [17:57:12] is the third one [17:57:28] #Only allow sysops to edit "Policy" namespace [17:57:32] (but you would change it to category) [17:58:03] and switch [NS_POLICY] with [NS_CATEGORY] [17:58:08] but change some things ;) [17:58:13] $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['editpolicy'] = true; [17:58:15] ?

[18:20:16] like [18:20:18] how do I make TEXT [18:20:23] ok forget php [18:20:26] I have a form [18:20:30] how do I make TEXT [18:20:37] *Worby has nfc :) [18:20:45] which does < type="submit" [18:20:52] ok start again [18:21:03] *Worby won't have a clue even if you rephrase :) [18:21:04] makes a button that submits the form [18:21:15] how do i make TEXT that submits the form? [18:21:21] this is standard html [18:21:53] Worby please look [18:22:14] *Worby sighs [18:22:16] idk :) [18:22:26] Anyone? [18:22:27] are you referring to html?

[18:23:40] I don't think so [18:23:48] I was really "good job"ing you :) [18:24:09] that's a guess. you might just want to make a "formSubmit()" function and call that. [18:24:17] it'd be cleaner. [18:25:48] or you could get super ghetto and make a hidden submit element and invoke .click on it when you click on the text. [18:25:59] that'd be cute. [18:27:23] Thanks TimLaqua [18:27:55] anytime. [18:28:07] I was trying to use javascript [18:28:09] lol [18:28:40] ya, standard HTML forms are pretty dated.

[19:02:00] it says you have to be a beaurocrat [19:02:02] where's the wiki? :) [19:02:06] wait no [19:02:26] Maorly: thanks [19:02:30] Worby: since I put that $wgNamespaceProtection on sysops [19:02:37] it says you have to be sysop to edit [19:02:37] yeah [19:02:40] which i am [19:02:42] that's good, right? [19:02:44] and to prove it [19:02:51] I went to Special:Userrights [19:03:00] and it told me I had to be a beaurocrat to view that page [19:03:06] are you logged in? [19:03:09] I logged out, and logged back in but it gave me same messages [19:03:14] where's the wiki? [19:03:22] http://abstractdesigns.info [19:03:23] *Worby tests it [19:03:42] Worby: pages I MANUALLY protected [19:03:44] i can edit [19:04:02] but pages in the Category Namesapce which are under "sysop" protection, I can't edit [19:04:15] even though i'm (suppose to be) sysop [19:04:22] when I went to change myself TO sysop [19:04:32] it said I had to have a level of Beaurocrat [19:04:36] which I assumed I had [19:04:39] cos I was sysop [19:04:47] hmmm [19:04:55] wait [19:04:59] you aren't a sysop [19:05:06] you're a root admin :) [19:05:09] that might complicate it [19:05:17] can you edit the MediaWiki namespace? [19:07:08] GBenemy? [19:07:21] yes [19:07:27] I can [19:07:33] Root Admin is higher than sysop no? [19:07:38] look in LocalSettings [19:07:44] Worby: I can edit MediaWiki [19:07:45] and see waht the MediaWikinamespace is set as [19:07:52] MediaWiki [19:08:07] yes [19:08:19] open local settings and look for "MediaWiki" [19:08:34] I did [19:08:40] it came up with the title at the start [19:09:13] what did you do originally? [19:09:35] what did you add to LocalSettings before? [19:09:40] # This file was automatically generated by the MediaWiki installer. [19:09:41] # the other MediaWiki files. It will be used as a base to locate files. [19:09:43] ## http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL [19:09:44] and [19:09:46] $wgDBmwschema = "mediawiki"; [19:09:48] that's all there is with "mediawiki" in it [19:10:06] okay [19:10:10] but what did you add orignally? [19:10:14] ermm... [19:10:15] $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['editnamespace'] = true; [19:10:17] $wgNamespaceProtection[NS_CATEGORY] = array( 'editnamespace' ); [19:10:37] but I can't edit Special:Userrights either, which I usually can :S [19:10:45] hmmm [19:10:55] I'll pastey my LocalSettings.php [19:11:07] k [19:12:14] why don't we use something other than "editnamespace" [19:12:20] that might already be taken ;) [19:12:29] try 'editcategory' or something [19:13:35] but you have all these custom things :) [19:13:40] do you have a pastey link yet? :P) [19:14:53] no [19:15:08] i'm still typing in mediawiki.org backwards [19:15:15] and counting how many times I used it in the file [19:16:48] http://mediawiki.pastey.net/72379 [19:18:54] $wgNamespaceProtection[NS_MEDIAWIKI] = array( 'editinterface' ); is what is set for the MediaWiki namespace [19:18:59] try doing that for the category one? [19:19:35] Majorly: do you have any ideas? :) [19:19:47] where does it say that in my file? [19:19:49] no, i don't know php [19:20:31] any idea how the skin hack to add a sidebar to the right side on http://www.icannwiki.org/ is done? I tried "borrowing" the code, but it doesn't display on the right side of my test wiki, but instead below the toolbox... =| [19:21:17] GBenemy: did you try chaining 'editnamespace' to 'editcategory' ? [19:21:50] :S [19:22:22] $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['editcategory'] = true; [19:22:23] $wgNamespaceProtection[NS_CATEGORY] = array( 'editcategory' ); [19:22:25] ??? [19:22:26] like that? [19:22:37] yeah [19:22:37] see if that works [19:22:39] if not... tell me :) [19:23:27] nope [19:23:35] and I still can't access Special:Userrights [19:24:01] try removing both of the lines [19:24:04] (that we added) [19:24:12] and see if that fixes everything [19:24:15] do you have something like this : $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['userrights'] = true; ? [19:24:21] if not, then that's not casuing the problem :) [19:24:30] ialexandre: well, he's not a bureaurct [19:24:34] bureaucrat* [19:24:45] that's the problem [19:24:47] yes, but i've been able to access that page in the past [19:25:01] so $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['userrights'] = true; [19:25:22] yeah, but i think because we introduced one $wgGroupPermissions it messes up your other ones [19:25:33] nope [19:25:35] Worby [19:25:40] removing them kept it the same [19:25:53] kept what the same? [19:26:07] GBenemy: you are sysop a you normally have access to Special:userrights ? [19:26:14] s/a/and [19:26:26] Worby: ok I fixed the Not being able to edit [19:26:30] he's a "Root Admin" [19:26:35] but I still can't access Special:Userrights [19:26:41] GBenemey: how did you fix that? :) [19:26:51] Worby: oh, ok [19:27:11] removed the two lines we added [19:27:23] did anyone see *my* question above? =/ [19:27:28] yes [19:27:30] I saw it [19:27:35] and I'm searching google right now [19:27:52] adding a column to the right side is a hard thing to do actually... [19:28:45] try 0: $wgGroupPermissions['root admin']['userrights'] = true; [19:28:51] is that the name of the right? [19:28:53] 'root admin' ? [19:28:53] hmm [19:29:02] can permissions have spaces? [19:29:08] I'm not sure :) [19:29:10] shouldn't it be like "rootadmin" or "root_admin"? [19:29:14] but he has a "root admin" right [19:29:21] so I'm asking what the right name is [19:29:42] "root admin" right or group ? [19:29:48] group :) [19:29:51] sorry :-P [19:30:40] Worby: I don't know [19:30:45] :( [19:30:48] I've never had to deal with rights before [19:30:58] GBenemy: is your wiki public ? [19:31:03] meaning? [19:31:05] then how did you get all those weird grops on there? [19:31:12] ialexandre: http://abstractdesigns.info/wiki/Special:Listusers [19:31:14] what weird groups?

[19:49:45] *Worby hopes no one edited *that* [19:49:47] I haven't changed anything in that though :S [19:49:55] but you said people in your forum have changed stuff [19:50:06] (you really shouldn't edit DefaultSettings :) ) [19:50:11] WAIT [19:50:18] WHAT [19:50:19] I'll send you a pastey of User.php [19:50:19] :) [19:50:24] :) [19:50:25] Because that got changed [19:50:26] that would be good [19:52:11] http://pastey.net/72380 [19:53:52] do you kown what changed ? [19:55:21] nope [19:55:29] I didn't know what was there before it got changed [19:55:36] I'm assuming anything you don't recognise [19:56:51] *Worby had hoped this was a "quick-fix" :) [19:57:07] *GBenemy doesn't know what Worby is talking about [19:58:06] when you asked for help [19:58:12] *Worby thought it woulda been quick ;) [19:58:29] are you sure you didn't change anything else?

[20:06:31] I'm trying to generate an HTML table using two templates - one for the table itself, and then another one that's called to generate a row. However, it looks like the sanitizer is looking at the row template, deciding that it's not valid HTML, and escaping everything. Except...it *is* valid, as long as its called from a table context. Is it possible to have a template that just generates a... [20:06:33] ...table row?

[20:23:21] [20:24:03] When I use a template that just generates a stuff, the sanitizer escapes all the tags. [20:24:44]
stuff
[20:25:38] Yes, but the ...
is on another page; I'm trying to have a template that I can call repeatedly to just generate the ... parts [20:26:35] and will be escaped if they aren't in [20:27:13] Right; that's the problem. They'll end up inside a
, but the sanitizer doesn't seem to know that. [20:28:39] would it help to wrap the tags in ? [20:29:00] oh, you're generating them from a wiki formatted table. never mind. [20:29:29] e.g: Template: TableRow contains [20:30:17] User:MyPage contains

[21:38:50] like bash or something like that. a POSIX compliant terminal where you enter commands in *NIXes [21:39:01] in english? [21:39:04] do you know "cmd.exe" in windows? [21:39:07] yes [21:39:08] do you have Linux or OS X or Windows? [21:39:14] that is a shell [21:39:19] I use Windows, but my site is hosted on Linux [21:39:27] operating a computer by typing commands [21:39:31] ahh [21:40:12] GBenemy: great. SSH in to your linux with free putty client for windows and run it there SSH is a secure shell [21:40:25] oky doky [21:40:29] copy the extensions to ./extensions and then add a line to LocalSettings.php in the bottom, to load them [21:40:33] GBenemy: Remember to check in Putty that you have port 22 SSH is what you use [21:40:40] *GBenemy hobbles of to go download Putty [21:41:02] there. we helped him. round of wikilove.

[21:49:14] if not, change your provider [21:49:26] I've been looking for a new host [21:49:28] AND [21:49:33] I've been trying to host my site locally [21:49:38] 2 problems with the local bit [21:49:43] 1) i'm not online 24/7 [21:49:59] 2) apparently I have to set some port forwarding thing on my router which i don't know how to do [21:50:10] GBenemy: I can help out if you want [21:50:47] GBenemy: Also, portforward.com shows instructions for port forwarding on most routers [21:51:19] TheFearow: help out with finding a good host? or port forwarding? [21:51:37] Port forwarding/self hosting/any of that stuff. [21:51:40] I don't know what router I've got [21:52:01] Hmmm, are you on broadband/DSL? [21:52:10] Or dialup? [21:52:28] DSL [21:52:44] It should say on your router somewhere, either back, side, front, top, or bottom. [21:53:02] why can't i "ssh" with cmd? [21:53:18] I can ftp with it [21:53:20] why not ssh? [21:54:00] Does your host support ssh? [21:54:12] And is it on a different port? [21:54:30] *GBenemy is reading about port-forwarding [21:54:34] *GBenemy feels smart [21:55:26] The program isn't listed [21:55:29] I chose my router [21:55:45] and it said "now chose the program you are forwarding a port for" [21:55:52] and the program isn't listed [21:56:06] What are you wanting to forward? [21:56:24] XAMPP [21:56:47] Ahh. You want Apache or Webserver or Website, if its on there. Or if it has a custom box, use port 80 [21:57:36] well, I searched my host's help page for "ssh" with no results [21:57:59] Hmm, best idea seems to email them. [21:58:26] TheFearow: namespace additions are do-able by shells, right? [21:59:24] nevermind [21:59:26] it's yes :) [22:00:19] *GBenemy can't forward a port on his router [22:00:51] GBenemy: Back in 10 minutes [22:01:05] ok [22:04:38] *GBenemy /'s/ host DOES offer SSH. but only to clients who have a "dedicated server" [22:04:40] :S [22:05:15] GBenemy: How big wiki you want to run? [22:05:26] ... o.O [22:05:29] well, at the moment it's VERY small [22:05:40] You can have SSH with like.. zero permissions :P [22:05:40] but i'm hoping, if it gets popular enough [22:05:45] consider http://wikia.com or whatever it's called [22:06:02] GBenemy: free wiki hosting I think [22:06:03] ... o.O Why? You don't NEED root access to run mediawiki [22:06:17] Kunsole: i've been there [22:06:26] Halca: He want's extensions [22:06:34] and that means 1) I won't get my own domain, just a crappy subdomain of theirs [22:06:39] 2) I can't host my forum either [22:06:44] Still, that's possible -- so long as they're not written in other problems [22:06:52] 3) I have to re-install everything with all the pages i've done [22:06:57] I can host you a forum, if you've got a domain name :-P [22:07:05] 4) I can't use the site for other purposes, like publishing VB programs [22:07:07] phpBB3/2, IPB or vBulletin [22:07:08] :-) [22:07:11] VB blows :-/ [22:07:20] (only used for viruses these days ;-) ) [22:07:28] Halca: I have a domain name, and a host, and a working forum [22:07:38] Then what are you complaining about [22:07:39] http://abstractdesigns.info/forum [22:07:50] that wikia.com won't give it to me [22:07:52] is what [22:08:12] Then, why are you worrying? Just install MediaWiki without root permissions? [22:08:16] laters [22:08:21] I've done it around.. 10 times this week [22:08:43] It suggests root or a user that has access to some programs it requires for image manipulation, URL functions and others [22:08:51] Halca: what are you talking about? :S [22:09:13] In essence, it's this [22:09:19] WHAT IS? [22:09:25] WANT TO TRY MEDIAWIKI? Then INSTALL IT [22:09:31] I'VE GOT IT [22:09:34] If it doesn't work, then come here [22:09:34] I'M USING IT [22:09:44] Then what's the problem? :-P [22:09:54] I came here asking for help with an extension [22:09:59] Sure, which one is it? [22:10:04] but you probably missed that conversation [22:10:10] in the end, it turned out I needed ssh [22:10:20] which is what i am trying to sort now [22:10:21] Right, and you're using cPanel [22:10:27] no, I don't have cPanel [22:10:32] my host doesn't offer it [22:10:40] i wish it did though [22:10:45] it's so incredibly useful [22:11:38] Meh, i prefer ISPConfig :-)# [22:11:51] *GBenemy hasn't heard of that [22:11:59] Anyway, what is the extension you want to use? [22:12:01] Halca: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:IRC_Chat [22:12:07] but I don't have ssh [22:12:10] so I can't [22:12:16] Hmm.. [22:12:31] I wonder if it uses SmartIRC [22:12:46] err.. [22:12:52] You don't need SSH for that... ? [22:13:19] Just edit the extension like it says, place the applet in whatever directory you wish to point it to, then it's done [22:13:24] In the regular command line, run: [22:13:25] $ cd /path/to/wiki/ [22:13:27] $ patch -p0 < mw1.X.X-irc.patch [22:13:34] they said that was SSH [22:13:42] Yes, that's patching the module [22:13:47] :S [22:13:52] And, you can run SQL commands through phpMyAdmin [22:13:54] It was under Installation [22:13:54] :-) [22:13:57] I know that [22:14:06] hence why i was asking about the "command line" bit [22:14:08] So; problem solved, then :-P [22:14:13] patch -p0 < mw1.X.X-irc.patch [22:14:19] "[edit]SQL and Patch" [22:14:31] xD [22:14:43] Only needs src changes, and the PjIRC extension [22:14:55] in /irc [22:15:52] Hi all [22:16:04] Hello, mangel [22:18:17] Halca: Is there a way to modify it so that users can ONLY join my channel, and /server is disabled?

[22:30:56] yes [22:31:03] 155 people are :P [22:31:06] *Worby_away rephrases your question [22:31:12] "is there anyone where who can help me?" [22:31:33] here* [22:34:54] is there anyone here who can help me? [22:35:40] Is there a way to modify it so that /j and /server are disabled?

[22:41:41] because i have no idea how to [22:42:06] *GBenemy_II is better than GBenemy [22:44:21] how can i integrate a template to the sidebar? [22:44:30] Monk33: hmmm? [22:45:25] Monk33: I don't think you can [22:45:48] Monk33: the sidebar uses a very limited set of wikicode [22:46:26] thanks. or maybe below? tried hard to get something there in the monobook skin [22:47:08] Ryan_Lane is right, but what do you want to do exactly, Monk? [22:47:32] do you want something dynamic, or static? [22:47:53] i want display something i have coded in a template (no matter what cos template) [22:48:21] look at this beauty of a wiki http://meopedia.com/en/Tag:Awesome (random page to display the "Share This!" box) [22:49:07] this not coded in the http://meopedia.com/en/MediaWiki:Sidebar page [22:49:53] ah [22:50:28] Anyone: How do I add a "Subcategory" to an extension page? [22:50:39] **category page, not extension page [22:50:44] Monk33: it is done with this extension: http://jimbojw.com/wiki/index.php?title=ShareThis [22:51:13] COOL! Extension:Bookmarking sucks (the only one in MW:Extensions [22:51:39] but in my sidebar i want to display Extension:ShoutBox [22:52:28] you'll probably have to turn off caching to do that. [22:52:54] i never have understood the appeal of shoutbox :) [22:53:11] but when i can use share this there i will place the shoutbox elsewhere [22:53:47] i waited ages to find a social bookmarking extension that grabs each link of the page and not just the main domain :D [22:53:49] GBenemy: just add the top level category to the subcategory [22:54:02] say what? [22:54:04] :S [22:54:06] **coding now. thanks again [22:54:24] *GBenemy has successfully installed IRC on his wiki [22:54:28] GBenemy: for instance, if you wanted to have Testmesub as a subcategory of Testme, you'd add [[Category:Testme]] to Testmesub [22:55:07] ahh [22:55:10] yes I see [22:55:20] is it possible to edit a category page? [22:55:22] like [22:55:25] I have the category [22:55:34] Category:SomeRandomCategory [22:55:35] yep. every category page is also an article [22:55:44] how? [22:56:11] put [[Category:SomeRandomCategory]] into any page, save the page, and click on the category link [22:56:21] just like creating normal articles [22:56:28] no no [22:56:31] I know about that [22:56:36] BUT [22:56:38] for example [22:57:30] do you mean you want to be able to remove entries from the category, by editing the category page? [22:57:59] Category:RandomCategory1 [22:58:01] is a sub Category of [22:58:03] Category:RandomCategories [22:58:04] It will display: [22:58:06] R [22:58:07] * RandomCategory1 [22:58:09] I want it to display [22:58:10] R [22:58:12] *Random Category 1 [22:58:13] but at the same time, have the wikilinked to [[Category:RandomCategory1]] [22:58:15] Ryan_Lane: yes [22:58:53] unfortunately, and I feel this is a negative aspect of MediaWiki, you can't. you'll need to edit every single page that uses that category, and modify it [22:59:16] or use a bot [22:59:53] huh? [22:59:55] edit a page that uses that category? [22:59:58] what do u mean? [23:00:05] categories are dynamically made [23:00:27] yes I know [23:01:04] If you want RandomCategory1 to show at Random Category 1, you'll need to change the sub category, not the category [23:02:21] or say for instance it was a regular article called RegularArticle, and you wanted it to show up as Regular Article, you'd need to rename the article to Regular Article by doing a page more [23:02:30] err [23:02:33] page move [23:04:25] *GBenemy sighs [23:04:34] that's alot of category renaming to do [23:04:38] *GBenemy will do it tomorrow [23:04:43] because [23:04:47] *GBenemy is going to bed now [23:05:20] Thanks Ryan_Lane [23:05:24] n/p [23:07:40] Ryan: sorry to bother you once more but to make it for every article i need to add a code on every article page. i have 4500 articles in my wiki and i want it to work on every article :( any way to make this code the default content of every article page? i have the sam eproblem with another extension as posted above btw [23:08:07] hmm [23:08:37] if there isn't already an available hook in the skin, you can add a hook [23:08:43] Monk33: use a bot [23:09:08] he wants it to always show up... a bot probably isn't appropriate [23:09:09] uh i have no clue about bots and command lines :) [23:09:09] set it up to monitor Special:Newpages [23:09:17] and add it to every Newpage [23:09:31] an extension that uses a skin hook would be a little better [23:09:46] Ryan_lane, you can't add it into Common.css? [23:09:48] or something? [23:09:58] Common.css is just for css [23:10:09] Monobook.php then [23:10:39] it would only work in monobook then ;) [23:10:48] Skin.php [23:10:50] :@ [23:10:53] STOP RUINING MY IDEAS [23:11:00] skinTemplate.php may be a good spot [23:11:05] wait wait [23:11:08] make an include [23:11:10] but to be clear: i tried using a template like {{Default}} which includes the 2 extension codes and the share this extension code works in there for every article but the second extension is a comment box and i cannot add coments on the articles then cos it lands in the template talk [23:11:13] then in LocalSettings.php [23:11:39] require('includes/YourCode.php'); [23:11:54] 03(FIXED) Please lock Yi Wikipedia - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10970 +comment (10jeluf) [23:12:05] GBenemy: that would be an extension... but you still need to somehow get the html on the page... [23:12:58] the code for "share this": [23:13:03] for the comment box: {{:{{TALKSPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}}} [23:13:03] [23:13:26] oh my [23:13:40] JeLuF, you *are* here [23:13:49] *Worby_away huggles you for working on shell requests [23:14:10] Monk33: notice that sharethis uses $wgHooks['MonoBookTemplateToolboxEnd'][] [23:14:27] so, sharethis specifically uses a hook in MonoBook.php [23:14:41] so, it is likely that it wouldn't work in other skins [23:14:55] no problem :) [23:15:04] i don't offer any other skins [23:15:23] you may have an issue with the parser cache if your content is dynamic [23:15:45] sharethis uses a static list of entries [23:16:11] yeah ok. dynamic content means the article content? [23:16:52] oh wait [23:17:04] no, nevermind. the sharethis stuff isn't static. [23:17:15] if you do what that extension does, you'll probably be ok :) [23:17:57] so what to do exactly now. require('includes/YourCode.php'); ? [23:18:25] you should drop yours in extensions [23:18:38] and do require('extensions/YourCode.php'); [23:20:44] ok i'll try. simply the content as i would add in the article? [23:23:45] i'm a bit lost. required Default.php http://mediawiki.pastey.net/72405 [23:23:57] does not work of course. [23:26:44] what do i need to add to the include php that this will be added in the back at the end of each article page? [23:27:24] are you adding that to the end of LocalSettings.php? [23:28:22] you want sharethis to appear at the end of the page, and not in the sidebar? [23:29:36] no wait :) i need to include the 3 lines as linked at the end of each article page to make the extensions work [23:29:59] where it displays can be handled in the entire extension php file [23:30:35] 03(FIXED) Contribs not migrated after rename. - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10979 +comment (10jeluf) [23:33:04] and best would be the 3 lines do not appear in the edit article page but not bad if does [23:35:52] another but unhandy option would be to batch add them on every existing atricle and category page and manually add it on every new to come page [23:36:17] but having them there in the back by default would be top notch of course [23:39:52] 03(FIXED) Create a new namespace on Hebrew Wiktionary - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10984 +comment (10jeluf)
