[01:08:33] brion: what would you think of moving $wgGroupPermissions into the database? [01:09:03] Werdna: i'm leery of that, in part because the previous system which attempted to do that kind of sucked :) [01:09:18] oh? what happened?

[02:00:14] hmm [02:00:24] an interesting idea, but i'd be leery of poking things in like that [02:00:37] source wiki doesn't know a lot about the local structure (language, namespaces, etc) [02:00:44] mmm.. fair enough [02:00:45] - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12347 (10meno25wiki) [02:06:08] Werdna: don't know if you care, but a b'crat and checkuser on en.wiki was concerned about sysops having give/take ability with rollback, specifically with regards to Foundation policy [02:06:24] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bureaucrats%27_noticeboard#Special:Userrights comments by Redux [02:06:25] don't really care :) [02:06:32] ok :) [02:07:56] *MZMcBride wonders if Redux is right about the Foundation issues [02:11:09] I should post there, anyway [02:12:48] eek, release-notes didn't get updated for some stupid reason [02:20:45] *MZMcBride kicks CIA-38 [02:20:45] ow [02:20:55] why isn't that damn bot reporting SVN commits? [02:20:58] I've stopped kicking him [02:21:13] I figure he'll behave when he feels like it. let him cry it out. [02:21:20] ;-) [02:21:52] a bad joke and he's off :) [02:21:59] muahaha [02:22:57] Oh, good lord. [02:23:13] This rollback thing is getting really, really ridiculous. [02:23:23] amidaniel|away: oh? [02:23:29] yes, we're at new lows on en.wiki [02:23:44] people suggesting asinine ideas like making a preference? [02:23:47] oh, you're right there. [02:24:01] Werdna: hehe :) That was quite a mild, mild suggestion if you ask me :) [02:24:20] amidaniel|away: coming from the guy who coded it... [02:24:22] And I still think it would be a decent compromise (although I'm quite with you in thinking it should just be fucking enabled) [02:24:36] Werdna: :) [02:24:42] It was MZMcBride's suggestion, not mine [02:24:53] *MZMcBride ducks [02:25:03] it's crufty. [02:25:08] shouldn't be in core. [02:25:10] at least my suggestion had some on-wiki support :) [02:25:48] Werdna: You're probably right .. I admitted that it was a disgusting hack of a solution, but I didn't know of anyway to do it through an extension [02:26:11] amidaniel|away: add hooks :) [02:26:44] or, as an idea about 10x better, add a general extension with a special page [02:26:45] Yes, adding 30 or so hooks to enable an extension that adds a "crufty" user preference; that would be a good idea :) [02:26:58] Werdna: A special page that would do what? [02:27:30] and have it so that you have a $wgEnablableRights['autoconfirmed'] = array ( 'rollback' => 'somemessagewithrollbackrules' ); [02:27:47] you go to Special:EnableRights, and select "rollback", agree to the rules, and it grants you the permission. [02:28:02] Hmm [02:28:13] heh [02:28:20] THAT would be an elegant opt-in solution. [02:28:33] not bad; kinda similar to the damn user preference though [02:28:36] Yeah, that could actually be done pretty easy .. not sure it's exactly an "elegant" solution though :) [02:29:09] perhaps it could be extended to a GFDL agreement needed to start editing. [02:29:12] well yes, but as far as *opt-in* methods go. [02:29:27] would still need a mechanism to remove the rights from misbehaved users... [02:29:27] *Werdna is not a fan of the opt-in idea. [02:29:36] So what would your idea be? [02:29:39] *Gracenotes waffles about [02:29:41] MZMcBride: $wgRemoveGroups['sysop'] = array('rollback'); [02:29:43] Other than just outright enabling it [02:29:57] amidaniel|away: grant it to all users, but make the rules, or a link to them, more obvious in the interface. [02:29:57] MZMcBride: I truly don't see why that's necessary .... [02:30:10] amidaniel|away: i don't either; but the masses want it [02:30:13] Werdna: Yeah, that's clearly not going to happen [02:30:29] MZMcBride: Well, the masses are pretty fucking stupid, if you ask me :) [02:30:42] Adding another user group for this is a worse solution than the user preference idea [02:30:44] Werdna: once we deprecate makebot and makesysop ... [02:30:54] amidaniel|away: that should be in a mediawiki message :) [02:31:01] MZMcBride: what do you mean "once we" deprecate makebot and makesysop [02:31:30] i mean if/when your code goes live, userrights can be used with $wgRemoveGroups['sysop'] = array('rollback'); [02:31:40] don't you mean "now that werdna has deprecated" makebot and makesysop? [02:31:51] As of r28650, I believe we can call them deprecated [02:32:05] /cough/ scap /cough/ [02:32:17] yeah, my schema change is still pending [02:32:42] Deprecation = term to describe the state of crap in svn. Wikimedia has nothing to do with the state of the software [02:33:21] and they will go live. I've tested them, they work as well as makesysop, and brion said I could do it at the outset. [02:34:18] oh i hope we can finally get rid of the old extensions; but i still don't like admins with rollback give/take... for the drama and all that [02:35:56] amidaniel|away: did you ever get a chance to look at that toolserver query encoding issue? [02:36:23] I should write an extension [02:36:27] then I get mentioned on Special:Version [02:36:34] step 1 in my celebrity campaign [02:37:10] even though search engines won't pick it up? [02:37:54] shush [02:38:01] :) [02:38:23] MZMcBride: No [02:38:43] ok [02:38:47] Werdna: If anyone's writing the hackerish grody extension, it's gonna be me >:O [02:40:08] 03(FIXED) Wikimedia squid error message needs update - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11854 +comment (10ultrablue) [02:49:38] 03(mod) Allow preventing blocked users from editing their talk pages ( case-by-case basis when $wgBlockAllowsUTEdit = true) - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8440 (10skizzerz) [02:50:18] "Allow preventing blocked users" ... rather confusing terms those :) [02:50:50] I thought that was closed WONTFIX?

[04:14:28] shouldn't be used for critical features? [04:14:42] Well that depends... [04:15:11] i've just gone one extension that does a ludicrous DB query and I figured it'd make sense to cache it for a while [04:15:34] It's possible to use it to cache db stuff, and things will still work without Memcached because it'll always do the db query then [04:15:46] Of course, file caching is also possible if you absolutely need it [04:16:05] should have written it better: Shouldn't be relied upon for critical featuresd [04:16:09] But if it's important for an extension, there are a few out there that just state that memcached is required [04:17:11] k, so new question. extension runs ludicrous DB query - what's the best way to cache it? really, the data only needs to be updated like 1-4 times a day. [04:17:36] Explain what this DB query does... [04:18:06] aggregates revision counts [04:18:46] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/ContributionScores/ContributionScores_body.php?revision=28651&view=markup [04:19:50] there's only one sql query in there [04:20:16] one sec [04:27:47] on an explain, I get extra flags of Using temporary and Using filesort on the user table (icky) [04:32:49] I suggest doing what is done by SMW [04:33:01] Create a new table and cache the table there [04:33:28] One minor DB query with potential Memcached behind it is best. [04:33:38] Also [04:33:58] It may be best to have the Job que perpetually update that table, insead of running the query all at once. [04:34:54] Basically, hook into the saving of a revision, and have it append a new Job if they aren't in the que already. [04:35:24] Provide the ability to run the entire que at once as a cli run script to. [04:36:16] hmmm... sounds far more involved than the magical cache bucket I had in mind. [04:36:40] ^_^ It's the best way to do it... [04:36:54] ;-) thx.

[18:48:51] AndrewBuis: the cleanest way to do this is to write a small program that dumps your database into mediawiki's XML dump format. then import that. [18:49:04] or try the plain text import thing [18:49:31] or write something similar to the plain text import thing, but connecting directly to your database (no idea how to access Access from PHP though) [18:52:10] I can get the Access DB into MySQL...

[18:53:03] maintenance/importTextFile.php [18:53:09] in your install directory [18:53:27] ty, taking a look [18:53:36] if you know a bit of php, you should be able to adapt it to read directly from a database, or tsv file [18:53:51] (i'd go for tsv rather than mysql...)

[19:03:38] they're basically vbs wikibots [19:03:57] testing [19:04:16] I want to have short urls, I added in localsetting.php and created a .htaccess file and did as the wiki manual said, but when I point at a url in wiki I get like www.example.com/wiki/page_one but when I click it gives me 404, any ideas ? [19:04:18] AndrewBuis: they're not published. I can email them to you if you're familliar w/ VBS, otherwise if you send me your access DB, I can run the import against your site for you.

[19:05:33] you are god, you should know :P [19:05:37] I think I am not doing the .htaccess file part right, I used notepad to create one (without wordwrap) [19:05:47] inhibition, then your .htaccess might be wrong [19:05:49] mad notepad skills [19:05:52] !rewriteproblem | inhibition [19:05:52] --mwbot-- inhibition: a) do not put the files into the document root b) do not map the pages into the document root c) use different pathes for real files and virtual pages d) do not set a RewriteBase e) but all rules into the .htacces in the document root.

I want to put a default message (like for copyrights) on image pages [19:06:49] enhydra: I can pastebin it, and yes I am reading what mwbot said :) [19:06:54] inhibition: these points cover about 90% of the "short urls don't work" complaints [19:07:09] inhibition, pastebin it if mwbot's instructions don't help [19:07:19] enhydra: thank you :) [19:09:10] inhibition, np :) (I'm going to sleep — it's 02:09 local time now; so someone other may help you then) [19:09:27] uh oh I am pastebinning it atm [19:09:40] enhydra: anyways sleep well :) [19:11:02] http://rafb.net/p/sYmCAX16.html [19:11:09] this is all I have in .htaccess [19:11:19] .htaccess is in /public_html [19:11:35] and wiki is in /public_html/wiki [19:11:52] you want me to paste the localsettings.php thing too ? [19:11:56] inhibition: where are the wiki *files*? [19:12:00] @duesentrieg [19:12:03] @duesentrieb [19:12:24] Duesentrieb: wiki files are in /public_html/wiki/ [19:12:30] i have edited localsettings.php and added $wgWhitelistAccount = array ( "user" => 0, "sysop" => 0, "developer" => 0 ); [19:12:53] inhibition: iyour rewrite rules say they are in /public_html/w/ (and they should be) [19:12:57] Gott: Use $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false; [19:12:58] inhibition: rename the directory [19:13:08] And so on for "user" and "sysop" if you like. [19:13:33] Duesentrieb: RewriteRule ^wiki/(.+)$ 4w/index.php?title=$1 [PT,L,QSA] [19:13:38] the read part to 'wiki' ? [19:13:42] thank you, seems to work! [19:13:44] Gott: $wgWhitelistAccount is deprecated. where does it say to use that? [19:14:01] inhibition: whot? [19:14:18] Sorry guys, I don't meant to interrupt. Any help? How about this: In which file is the uploadLinksBox? [19:14:23] Duesentrieb: whihc rewrite shu I change ? [19:14:27] i've read it here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access#Restrict_account_creation [19:14:28] inhibition: that rule says: "for any path that starts with /wiki, send the real request to /w/index.php" [19:14:34] TimLaqua: would you please be so kind to write http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:NetworkAuth? it looks like a cool extension, I'd like to try it out (but docs are always needed ;-). thanks in advance :) [19:14:47] inhibition: the rules are ok. the actual directory has the wrong name. it should be called "w". [19:15:09] Duesentrieb: so what do I rewrite it as ? I can't change the directory :/ [19:15:15] Jack_Phoenix: but... the premise of that extension is purely insane. ;-) [19:15:25] I'll get on it. ;-) [19:15:26] is it not possible to do it by modifying the rewrite rules ? [19:15:29] s/insane/cool ;-) [19:15:48] inhibition: ifg you can't change the directory, then you have to use some other path than /wiki/ for your pretty url. use /page/ or /view/ or whatever. [19:15:55] to restrict editing pages (but i still want to edit them) i have to add $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; ? [19:16:12] inhibition: in the eample, /wiki is the virtual path, and /w is the real path. in your case, /wiki is the real path - so, make the virtual path something else. [19:16:21] Gott: yes. [19:16:48] Duesentrieb: can you edit that .htaccess and tell me please ? /me copied that from mediawiki.org *blush* [19:16:53] Gott: did you read the instuctions? the section talking about wgWhitelistAccount is entiteled "Pre-1.5"... [19:17:22] inhibition: if you want to use it, you should understand it. otherwise you will be stranded next time things change. [19:18:02] oh k [19:18:10] ermm right, but this is the only thing I want to do in this :) [19:18:39] thanks for your support! cya [19:18:39] inhibition: well, replace wiki by some other path, and w by wiki [19:19:06] ok so replace the 'wiki' by say 'page' and 'w' by 'wiki' ? [19:19:09] that's it ? [19:19:22] (It's still a good idea to actually understand it. Have to visualize.) [19:19:30] inhibition: yes. [19:19:33] anyway, gotta run [19:19:34] bbl [19:19:38] ok, I will try that [19:19:41] thanks Duesentrieb [19:19:52] Any takers? [19:22:44] ok one question .. the 'path' I am giving is NOT the real path but a virtual one, and the 'wiki' I am defining is the actual path to the wiki directory right [19:22:45] ? [19:23:59] hrmm I still get 404 [19:24:21] inhibition: Sit tight, let me check something. Might be able to help. [19:24:32] Sasoriza: alright [19:27:01] inhibition: Since I came in late, I don't know if you've checked this... have you checked http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL ? [19:27:25] yeah I copied the .htaccess and localsettings.php from there :/ [19:27:53] k, just a minute [19:27:59] k [19:28:28] and yes I created the .htaccess in notepad (w/o word wrap) [19:30:14] inhibition: You have access to LocalSettings.php? [19:30:23] Sasoriza: yes I do [19:30:42] you want me to give you the details of the location and setup in PM ? [19:31:04] You should see a line like "For more information on customizing the URLs" [19:31:53] yeah I see it [19:32:18] Below that, two lines: "# $wgArticlePath = "$wgScript/$1";" (and on the next line) "$wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1";", where "wiki" is the filepath [19:32:43] ok I will add, gemme a moment please [19:33:02] or, sorry, "wiki" would be the directory... could also be "w", or whatever you named it [19:33:21] yeah the wiki is in /public_html/wiki/ [19:33:34] and .htaccess is in /public_html/ [19:33:56] so I guess I would be using what you first gave me right ? [19:35:55] Sasoriza: btw, there is NO definition for $wgScript in my settings [19:35:56] if you don't have those two lines, try inputting them, making sure to specify the directory as you have it (where I had "wiki") [19:36:08] yeah I did that [19:37:22] still 404 [19:37:24] :( [19:37:56] 03(mod) Possibility to ignore namespace in sorting categories - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12351 (10ThomasBleher) [19:38:38] in your .htaccess you should have "RewriteEngine on [19:38:38] RewriteRule ^wiki/?(.*)$ /w/index.php?title=$1 [L,QSA] [19:39:11] ok I will pastebin the .htaccess I have atm one min please [19:39:12] (no " though) [19:40:00] this is the .htaccess from /public_html? right? [19:40:07] yeah [19:40:09] k [19:40:17] http://pastebin.ca/824067 [19:40:52] that's my .htaccess atm [19:43:34] What kind of web interface are you using? [19:43:43] you mean ftp ? [19:43:54] PHPMyAdmin, etc. ? [19:44:07] php 5.1 [19:44:40] if I set some group to have "userrights" = true where do I go to access the "user rights interface" ? [19:44:58] Sasoriza: is the .htaccess right ? [19:45:02] I bet it's not heh [19:45:14] Hmm... been a while since I set up mine. Got to think. [19:45:23] take your time no hurry :) [19:47:20] Mind you, I'm not a MW master; I just have some experience in this. But I think changing path/ to /public_html/ might do it, or dropping that from the page. [19:47:53] Sasoriza: ok I will try that [19:48:04] rest of them are right ? [19:48:37] looks right [19:48:40] you mean ^public_html/ right ? [19:48:44] yeah [19:48:48] ok [19:48:51] *inhibition tries [19:51:03] Sasoriza: same [19:51:06] 404 error [19:51:10] hmm [19:51:25] something is wrong in that .htaccess [19:51:49] because if I am not much mistaken, localsettings.php just define the pointers within the wiki right ? [19:51:49] Yeah; I had to go through this, but I eventually figured it out. [19:52:04] yep, pretty much [19:52:16] and it IS showing as www.example.com/wiki/Main_Page [19:52:28] but when I click on it, I get an error (404) [19:53:09] Do you have something like "suPHP_ConfigPath" in .htaccess? [19:53:27] nopes wait I will pastebin what ALL I have in .htaccess [19:54:14] http://pastebin.ca/824089 [19:54:20] this is of my .htaccess [19:55:04] I read that, by creating it in notepad screws it up, can that be the problem ? (i used NO word wrap) [19:56:25] yes, it can [19:56:26] !bom [19:56:26] --mwbot-- The byte-order mark (BOM) is a special character added to files by some text editors, most notably, by Notepad. It is unnecessary and breaks PHP code. You should not use Notepad to edit PHP files. Alternatives for Windows include Notepad++, SciTE, EditPlus, and UltraEdit. [19:56:47] hrmm so what should I use ? [19:56:57] not sure how it effects .htaccess, to be honest. it's a killer for all php files [19:57:26] err... it factoid lists some alternatives, no? [19:57:28] inhibition: Try adding this: suPHP_ConfigPath /home/youradmin_name/public_html [19:57:40] ok I will try that [19:57:45] yeah, notepad can be a problem [19:58:11] notepad is nearly as bad as "edit" from the dos days. [19:58:20] editpad pro is fine ? [19:58:29] proably [19:58:34] I think I have it's installation file somewhere [19:58:46] any decent editor doesn't use bom for utf-8, or has an option for it [19:59:20] any "raw" input box should do, for this [19:59:28] like ? [20:00:00] I use a mediawiki edit field [20:00:34] now I have to search for an editor for 4-5 lines heh [20:00:39] *inhibition searches for one [20:02:07] Or a plain text email [20:02:30] mIRC scripts editor will do ? heh [20:08:30] inhibition: Have you tried this? Change the first RewriteRule line to RewriteRule ^wiki/?(.*)$ /w/index.php?title=$1 [PT,L,QSA] [20:09:10] ^wiki/?(.*)$ /4w/index.php?title=$1 [PT,L,QSA] 'w' isn't my directory, 'wiki' is [20:09:25] but no I have not tried it yet [20:09:27] ok, just change that to "wiki" then [20:09:40] ^wiki/?(.*)$ /wiki/index.php?title=$1 [PT,L,QSA] <-- this ? [20:09:46] and the rest remains the same ? [20:10:10] yes [20:10:16] ok I will try that [20:11:10] rfewriteing wiki to wiki will not work [20:11:21] it my seem to work kind of, but it will have evil side effects [20:11:36] I thought it should stay "w" [20:11:53] if your directory is called that... [20:12:03] his is called "wiki" [20:12:09] right [20:12:29] so he's got /wiki/ inside of wiki/? [20:12:42] yeah [20:13:01] htacces is in --> /.htaccess [20:13:09] MW is in --> /wiki/ [20:13:42] ok so what do I put in htacces (with edit pro, hope it doesn't kill) [20:14:21] might want to rename the "wiki" after public_html/ [20:14:47] won't that have any adverse effect ? [20:15:06] and I will need to change the localsettings.php too for it right ? [20:17:36] yes, after $wgScriptPath [20:18:41] hehe works [20:18:46] That's why something simple like "w" works best (at least as far as I've seen) [20:18:53] I just used wiki [20:18:58] works? [20:19:03] yep [20:19:05] cool [20:19:13] just use ^wiki/ [20:19:24] thank you all :) [20:19:32] yeah, I wondered if those odd marks were being caused by notepad [20:19:41] especially Duesentrieb and Sasoriza, I appreciate :) [20:19:46] inhibition: you mapped your pages over the actual files - not so good. try creating a pagfe called FAQ. [20:20:05] Duesentrieb: ermm means ? [20:20:10] try it [20:20:16] I create a page ? [20:20:19] ok one sec [20:20:26] try creating a page [20:20:40] try creating a page CALLED FAQ [20:20:52] case sensitive ? [20:20:52] er, like Duesentrieb said... nm me [20:21:03] inhibition: yes. FAQ [20:21:07] ok [20:21:42] it shows 'original MW FAQ can be found at .." [20:22:35] yes. because it exists as a file [20:22:57] this is why do should not use the same path for actual files, and virtual "pages" [20:22:59] ok is it bad ? (by the way I did the url thing ? wiki and wiki) ? [20:23:02] because the files sit in the way. [20:23:08] ahh [20:23:20] it's namespace pollution, and a pain to maintin [20:23:38] but other things are not working :/ [20:23:45] imagine you have a page called Foo. Now, for some reason, the next version of mediawiki has a file called Foo - then you page is gone. [20:23:52] sure they are working. [20:23:55] it's really simply [20:23:58] *simple [20:24:03] just be consistent [20:24:10] but when we tried with 'page' it didn't work [20:24:19] because you did not do it consistently [20:24:32] hrmm so what's the solution ? [20:24:37] do it consistently :) [20:25:00] now here comes the tricky part, how ? (since I don't know anything about MW heh) [20:25:14] I am just doing this for *shrug* scripting channel I am staff in [20:25:23] I am just doing this for a scripting channel I am staff in [20:26:36] damn. sorry, gotta run.

[20:57:14] step [20:57:18] step by step [20:57:28] and I will go to the translator [20:58:53] inhibition: You should be able to use that as a guide to customizing [20:59:07] Just visualize your filepaths [20:59:12] Yo puedo hablar un poquito de espańol, y mas con translate.google.com :) [20:59:46] Sasoriza: yep I am working on it [20:59:47] kmccoy: :D. But do you know about how solve that problem? [20:59:52] next is a skin heh :) [20:59:54] when you can create "FAQ" and not get the same message (and not a 404), you should be set [21:00:18] Hm. [21:00:55] probably ought to let kmccoy help then since can speak spanish [21:01:30] hehe, I can barely speak Spanish. I'm looking at that image to see if I can figure out what is needed. [21:01:52] kmmccoy: what translator are you using? [21:02:02] my directions consists of 1) "cd extensions" 2) svn checkout http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/ExtensionFunctions.php and 3) svn checkout http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/ [21:02:06] er, kmccoy, sorry [21:02:27] Sasoriza, I speak a little Spanish, and I use either a dictionary or translate.google.com [21:02:33] ah [21:02:55] Hmmm, wait me, I go the translator [21:03:19] most of that needs no translation [21:03:27] those are actual linux commands [21:03:45] and assumes you already in the mediawiki directory [21:03:50] and have svn installed [21:03:59] inhibition: Just don't give up... keep at it, you'll get it eventually [21:04:10] darkcode: yes tortuise [21:04:31] darkcode: because The O.S in the schools is windows [21:04:39] Sasoriza: I didn't yet heh, if I don't get it in some more time, I will bug you again ;) [21:04:48] darkcode, he needs to install which extensions to fix his problem? [21:05:00] well in that case I don't help you, I don't use Windows [21:05:22] to begin with the ParserFunctions, but libertad wants all extensions used by Wikipedia [21:05:28] Ah... [21:05:29] err I can't help you [21:06:35] cd extensions ? [21:06:47] darkcode: have you a manual ? [21:06:58] libertad, żsabes como instalar "extensions"? [21:07:03] those instructions were for linux [21:07:13] kmccoy: over linux, not over windows [21:07:16] for Windows, I can't help you because I don't use Windows [21:07:54] They're not that different, it's just a matter of downloading files and putting them in the right directory. [21:08:22] darkcode: me to :( [21:08:27] ya but the instructions for doing so are different [21:09:04] ... Download the file. Put it in the extensions directory. [21:09:30] inhibition: PM me if you need to... I'll try to stick around for a bit. Or ask Duesentrieb, TimLaqua, RobChurch, any of them--they're the experts. [21:09:33] kmccoy: ok [21:09:43] kmccoy: only the php file? [21:09:43] Sasoriza: sure :) [21:10:03] Sasoriza: till now I have not managed to do it yet heh [21:10:04] libertad: Whatever files the extension includes. [21:10:10] I don't know if there is a friendly Windows installer, I don't know where its installed, I don't know how that effects the paths, etc. [21:10:20] *TimLaqua doesn't know how he got in that group [21:10:31] it works when I do wiki-wiki but that GAQ problem is present in that case [21:10:40] FAQ* [21:11:07] TimLaqua: LOL [21:11:10] kmccoy: Can you to make me a unico file extencions for download and install in extencion directory? [21:11:16] you may find this useful http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions_used_on_Wikimedia [21:11:59] inhibition: Right, and if you ever want to do updates, you might have a problem [21:12:25] libertad, I don't understand... [21:12:25] Sasoriza: I have no intention for updates atm heh [21:12:42] which version are you running? [21:12:49] 1.10 [21:12:56] *nods* [21:13:00] I don´t think so [21:13:14] I need download all that EXTENSIONS!! -- >> http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/ [21:13:25] no [21:13:37] just the ones used by Wikipedia [21:14:25] all http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions_used_on_Wikimedia inner http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/ ? [21:14:40] next step.. How install thats extensions? [21:15:43] Most of the extensions have installation instructions. [21:16:05] you could try http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Running_MediaWiki_on_Windows again no spanish version seems to be available [21:16:12] libertad: generally you download the php files in a subdirectory of the /extensions directory, then add require_once("/path/to/extension.php"); in your LocalSettings.php. Although you should view each extensions page at mediawiki.org to see any additional installation instructions [21:16:24] Usually you download the php files into the extension directory and add... what Skizzerz said. [21:16:34] :) [21:17:09] kmccoy: esto solventa mi problema? [21:17:21] Tal vez. :) [21:17:38] *Sasoriza is still waiting for an answer to HIS question [21:17:49] kmccoy: en la copia estática de wikipedia está habilitado el buscador de artĂ­culos? [21:17:52] Sasoriza: mind repeating it? [21:17:57] Sasoriza: you asked me something ? [21:18:09] inhibition: Not you. [21:18:17] Sasoriza: ah ok [21:18:44] In the estatic copy of wikipedia is enabled the search engine? [21:18:51] Skizzerz: Trying to figure out how to call an HTML message (or even a template) by default on all image pages [21:19:28] Sasoriza: as part of the page's editable content or something like the sitenotice? [21:19:37] like sitenotice [21:19:45] ok... what version? [21:19:49] 1.9 [21:20:06] Sasoriza: I give up :/ [21:20:08] I'm not sure. Does anyone know if a Windows install will have the search engine installed? Or is that a separate function? [21:20:09] and where do you want the message on the page? [21:20:15] it just won't work in any ways I try [21:20:17] Skizzerz: thanks, i go [21:20:27] (above image, between image and content, below content)? [21:20:39] below the image preferably, like under the hi-res message, under any editable description [21:20:54] ok, lemme fiddle around with that [21:20:54] above the reupload [21:21:23] inhibition: Hmm... seems like it should be something simple. [21:22:00] I don't know what else I could do, I tried all the methods from here and mediwiki.org which I could try :/ [21:22:10] mediawiki.org* [21:22:36] *Skizzerz is looking into it... but it will require "hacking" ImagePage.php [21:23:01] *Sasoriza gasps... a hack! [21:23:35] inhibition: what's the URL? [21:23:36] you could try using Aliases instead of Rewrite rules if they are available [21:23:41] the wikipedia static (html pages) have a search engine like dinammic wikipedia? [21:23:52] darkcode: have any link for that ? [21:24:13] Alguien aquĂ­ sabe si la version estática de wikipedia posee el sistema de busqueda de artĂ­culos? [21:25:03] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/wiki/Page_title_--_with_aliases--root_access [21:25:09] Skizzerz: Would it be possible using css, specifying for the namespace? [21:25:14] I don't have root access [21:25:21] it's a shared hosting [21:25:54] or even .js? [21:26:02] most of the short url pages are a mess from when a very short url was moved to mediawiki from wikimedia and someone who didn't know how to setup mediawiki software decide to break everything up unfortunately [21:26:12] *darkcode has been trying to clean it up and make it consistent [21:26:28] inhibition: when you installed it, when it asked you what to call it, and where you wanted it installed, what were your answers? Were they "wiki" in both cases? [21:26:29] Sasoriza: js might be possible, but php modifications would be safer and easier [21:26:47] Sasoriza: yes [21:27:10] inhibition: But you haven't started making articles yet? [21:27:18] not yet [21:27:21] inhibition the same basic rules apply just remove the parts and add it to .htaccess [21:27:49] !shorturl [21:27:49] --mwbot-- To create simple URLs (such as the /wiki/PAGENAME style URLs on Wikimedia sites), follow the instructions at . There are instructions for most different webserver setups. If you have problems getting the rewrite rules to work, see !rewriteproblem [21:27:49] should I pastebin my htaccess ? [21:28:01] Sasoriza: I'll to poke at it for ya. ;-) [21:28:04] !rewriteproblem [21:28:04] --mwbot-- a) do not put the files into the document root b) do not map the pages into the document root c) use different pathes for real files and virtual pages d) do not set a RewriteBase e) but all rules into the .htacces in the document root. [21:29:15] TimLaqua: ? Poke at what... the imagepage.php, or inhibition's dilemma? [21:29:28] yours. [21:29:32] o ok [21:29:46] I think inhibition needs more help than I do, LOL [21:29:49] you look to be neck deep in inhibition's issue [21:29:52] ;-) [21:29:58] I don't have any in my htaccess :/ [21:30:04] you shouldn't [21:30:12] I can figure it out eventually... I was just looking for an easy route [21:30:18] inhibition good [21:30:34] Sasoriza: does it need to be HTML or would just normal wikitext work? [21:30:35] inhibition that only applies when editing httpd.conf [21:30:41] either/or [21:30:53] what's your .htaccess look like now? [21:30:55] ok... then which do you prefer? [21:30:56] no I didn't do that (no root access) and I read one should edit ONLY one of them [21:31:03] wikitext [21:31:09] darkcode: I will pastebin it [21:31:11] yay, that's easy then :) [21:31:35] I just don't want to have to paste a template every time [21:31:56] http://pastebin.ca/824253 [21:32:10] that's fine, because it's wikitext you can simply edit a MediaWiki message to put it in [21:32:25] if I replace the 'path' by 'wiki' short urls work but I get that 'FAQ' issue [21:32:31] *TimLaqua wanders over to inhibition's issue. [21:32:51] use a virtual directory [21:33:08] inhibition: what are you trying to make your website look like? example.com/Page or example.com/wiki/Page? [21:33:14] question : how ? :) (I am a total n00b in this) [21:33:26] Sasoriza: so, just for final clarification before I create a patch file for you, you want it above the "File history" heading, correct? [21:33:27] inhibition: path/ doesn't have to exist [21:33:30] darkcode: example.com/wiki/page [21:33:51] ok you'll need to use a virtual directory [21:33:53] Skizzerz: Yep [21:33:53] TimLaqua: can you edit that htaccess please ? [21:34:05] basically /wiki should be renamed to /w or something [21:34:16] change .htaccess and LocalSettings.php [21:34:19] inhibition: like Albino_Convict said, the wierdness here is that your wiki is in the same folder that you're trying to redirect from [21:34:31] *Sasoriza has been saying that :) [21:34:36] usually w/ this kind of redirect, we install in /w [21:34:36] and then it'll say that you're editing a page called Index.php [21:34:39] NOT /wiki [21:34:40] yuh [21:34:43] .htaccess is in / and wiki is in /wiki [21:34:51] put the wiki in /w [21:34:54] is it new? [21:34:58] like did you just install it today? [21:35:00] yeah [21:35:05] rename /wiki to /w [21:35:14] not today some 3 days back but no major issues yet [21:35:19] ok and ? [21:35:27] create /wiki [21:35:32] don't create /wiki [21:35:34] ;-) [21:35:41] just do the rewrite [21:35:44] yuh [21:35:47] it doesn't matter if it exists [21:36:03] ok I rename the 'wiki' folder as 'w' and create a folder (empty) as 'wiki' ? [21:36:10] inhibition: test it first [21:36:12] the second part is optionla [21:36:15] optional* [21:36:18] on your site, go to /w/index.php [21:36:21] does it work? [21:36:26] ok and what do I have to change in localsettings.php ? [21:36:44] http://pastebin.ca/824258 [21:36:56] and then create/change .htaccess [21:39:30] ok renamed 'wiki' to 'w' and pasted the darkcode's htaccess to mine [21:39:48] ok reload the Main Page of your wiki [21:39:53] if you have it loaded [21:40:07] main page opened, but FAQ error is still there [21:40:46] main_page opened fine [21:40:52] is the URL www.example.com/wiki/Main_Page ? [21:40:57] yes [21:41:08] what is the URL after you click edit? [21:41:34] is it www.example.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=edit ? [21:41:39] can I post the webby link here [21:41:45] Albino_Convict: yes [21:41:53] ok something's screwed up [21:41:54] 03(NEW) Allow references () to be defined without adding this instance to the list of references (< references/>) - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12358 15enhancement; normal; MediaWiki: General/Unknown; (Wikipedia) [21:42:09] *Albino_Convict checks his LocalSettings.php [21:42:24] my wiki's configuration is similar [21:42:25] wait, I didn't change anything in LocalSettings.php YET! [21:42:38] it's still in "/wiki"; [21:42:49] yeah! [21:43:05] all I have done is: [21:43:08] $wgScriptPath = "/w" [21:43:15] $wgScriptExtension = ".php"; [21:43:15] $wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1"; [21:43:24] ok [21:43:26] that's what you should have [21:43:37] and did you change .htaccess yet? [21:43:47] you shouldn't need to mess with $wgScriptExtension [21:43:48] yes I did it with what darkcode gave [21:43:52] ok [21:44:02] all I have done is: [21:44:03] $wgScriptExtension was created automatically [21:44:03] Sasoriza: ok... do you have shell access so that you can run patch files? [21:44:05] 1] rename the folder from [21:44:18] 2] change the htaccess to darkcode's paste [21:44:19] eof [21:44:28] *inhibition changes the localsettings.php [21:44:52] *Sasoriza uses a windows interface [21:44:57] ok done [21:45:17] what is the edit URL now? [21:45:20] Sasoriza: ok, then do you have ftp access or some other method to edit the php file? [21:45:27] yeah [21:45:32] ok [21:45:55] I'll write up instructions for you then, considering you can't just command line patch the file [21:45:58] example.com/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=edit [21:46:08] I know.. it's a bummer [21:46:33] and your Main_Page URL is example.com/wiki/Main_Page ? [21:46:35] and the FAQ still remains [21:46:38] hmm [21:46:44] Albino_Convict: yes [21:46:57] Albino_Convict: mscripts.net/wiki/Main_page [21:47:06] errm P not p [21:47:49] AFAIK it's working properly [21:48:06] FAQ thing is still there though [21:48:08] view source is displayed for me [21:48:09] *Sasoriza needs to steal his son's computer so he can run command lines [21:48:19] history also works [21:48:24] do you mean http://mscripts.net/wiki/FAQ ? [21:48:33] darkcode: yes [21:48:35] There is currently no text in this page, you can search for this page title in other pages or edit this page. [21:48:44] that's what I get [21:48:44] hrmm [21:49:09] yay! [21:49:21] it finally worked [21:50:01] thank you darkcode Albino_Convict Sasoriza Duesentrieb :) [21:50:08] *inhibition dances a bit [21:50:51] thumbs up! [21:51:03] *inhibition both hands [21:51:13] man you guys have some patience [21:51:14] Now don't get too addicted... *evil laugh* [21:51:39] no now I have to get a skin *more bugging you guys* [21:52:15] a custom skin? [21:53:48] inhibition: opensuse uses a very special skin. [21:54:02] something based on the yaml css framework, as i was told the other day [21:54:10] (or was that you who told me?) [21:54:47] messing with the css allows you already to do quite a lot of things. and it's not trivial :P [21:55:05] *real* skin hacking (i.e. the php stuff) is even worse (the skin code really sucks) [21:58:03] *Duesentrieb is sick of monobook [21:58:52] this would rock: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/40/Newskin-wikipedia.png [22:01:19] inhibition: an experimental one. it only exists as the personal skin of http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Skinbastler afaik [22:01:39] it's mainly *simulated* using javascript [22:01:45] a real skin would have to work differently [22:01:56] (especially, it would have to work without js) [22:02:41] someone should really build a professional skin repository for mw. [22:02:45] you can get rich with that [22:04:33] css has no functions... [22:04:44] the selector works by element name, i suppose [22:04:46] i.e., pre [22:04:56] pre { ... } [22:05:02] css works like that... [22:05:13] yes. [22:05:14] pre [22:05:20] o_O [22:11:12] dunno. it's just getting old i guess [22:11:31] sputnick: use common.css for content styles, and monobook.css for skin styles. [22:12:55] *Albino_Convict is creating the table by hand [22:27:43] *Albino_Convict just discovered that cascading protection is not needed to prevent a page from being created [22:34:25] Jack_Phoenix: you run on windows? [22:35:20] k. I documented NetworkAuth. [22:36:22] np, lemme know how it goes. [22:36:50] !networkauth [22:36:50] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:NetworkAuth [22:38:49] ;-) If it finds a matching IP range, ip pattern, or hostpattern for the client that's requesting a page, it basically pretends to be logged in as whatever user you associate with that range. [22:39:15] by explode, I mean error. ;-) no "host" command on win [22:39:31] i'll make an nslookup version when I get time [22:39:46] or, more likely, steal one. [22:46:38] *TimLaqua wanders off to get rid of the explosion [22:46:58] 1second host lookup timeout is too long anyway. ;-) [22:47:03] *Skizzerz wanders off in a different direction to make more explosions [22:50:03] ;-) [23:33:47] LC-Stratics: you should be able to access it using "ugly" url format. i.e. index.php?title=foo+bar&action=delete [23:34:01] Skizzerz: with rewrites, that may or may not work. [23:34:28] *Skizzerz thought everything after the ? changed "+" into " " [23:34:29] oh, yea, right - you need to url-encode it :) [23:34:31] sorry [23:35:09] %2B should do [23:35:42] LC-Stratics: index.php?title=foo%2Bbar&action=delete [23:36:26] Skizzerz: actually, if, how, and in how far, url-encoding applies to other parts of the url is a bit unclear. especially with pathinfo and rewrite, your milage may vary considerably [23:45:47] *Sasoriza always wanted to visit Deutschland [23:48:18] *alnokta whenever places his head on a pillow goes to dreamland [23:57:37] ya
