[03:34:05] yeh [03:34:18] im not expert on this mind [03:37:13] exobuzz, thanks [03:37:41] specialKevin, css works on single wiki pages.. few exceptions, like background-image.. [03:37:49] does anybody know how I can allow users to create custom css templates for tables, without give them access to common.css [03:38:05] Wiredtape: do you know what the syntax would be for that [03:39:25] [03:39:36] as for custom css templates for tables: [03:39:54] User:/.css [03:40:01] would only affect that user [03:40:57] Wiredtape: well they want to create a custom template for a table that itsn't per user [03:41:35] so it would just be TABLE WIKI [03:43:35] well.. not exactly.. [03:43:48] in the case of a table it's a bit different [03:43:56] i'll give you an example... [03:44:05] {|style=".."

[03:48:12] *exobuzz [03:48:56] specialKevin, you do understand that others won't be able to reference this table later unless it is a template.. [03:49:20] Wiredtape: yea they just want this style for this one table [03:49:42] it shouldn't be a problem then... [03:51:52] i have a set of table styles in common.css [03:52:56] Wiredtape: http://pastebin.com/m4649e746 [03:53:14] that is how they are currently doing the style [03:53:28] so how would they have to change it [03:53:50] migth as well put "align=left" in the css if you use it in every cell ? [03:53:53] sorry for all the questions but I basically have to make this as simply as possible for the people I am giving this too [03:54:05] so like .wikitable td { text-align: left; } [03:54:10] exobuzz: I think that is what they want [03:54:31] exobuzz: but not every table is aligned left, just this table [03:54:50] so make another class called "leftalign" and add it to table class [03:55:39] btw. we launched our wiki yesterday. after being in slow development by a few people for a few years.. now its truly public! http://www.exotica.org.uk [03:55:40] specialKevin, I don't really understand what it is they want to change? [03:55:46] :) [03:55:49] exobuzz: to do that I would have to allow them access to common.css which I am trying to avoid [03:56:00] Wiredtape: I am trying to find the same thing out [03:56:03] exobuzz, what's it about? (exotica=prn?) [03:56:24] Wiredtape: not porn.. mostly amiga computing/games/music [03:56:26] they were just asking me about embeding css in a page for a table [03:56:27] c64 also [03:56:31] specialKevin, it looks fine, I don't understand what it is you/they aren't satisfied about? [03:56:44] it should work fine.. [03:57:24] Wiredtape: yea it looks fine for me and that is how I have always done it but I am dealing with a bunch of industrial design students [03:57:31] so they are very picky ;) [03:57:38] exobuzz, did you and your friends start it, or did other people join along the way? [03:58:11] some people who helped with the old "non wiki site" started it. [03:58:34] specialKevin, I would make a left align css class, like exobuzz suggested (this should clean up the syntax a bit) [03:58:39] exobuzz, cool.. looks nice :) [03:58:43] congrats.. [03:58:49] I too, opened recently.. :) [03:58:52] like .tableleft td,.tableleft tr { text-align: left; } [03:59:07] Wiredtape: thanks.. url for yours ? [03:59:26] exobuzz, www.wiredtape.com [03:59:55] you are multilanguage ? [03:59:59] though I am still solo in terms of writing content.. [04:00:06] i was thinking whether to set that up on mine. [04:00:16] exobuzz, i am... hopefully in the future there will be more [04:00:34] nice to see you did your own design, and not just using default monobook look [04:01:56] :), truth is I am actually working on an new look for the site... [04:01:59] looks good. [04:02:06] thank you :) [04:02:46] I am a bit bothered by the way the title's appear, and I feel that the action tabs aren't placed well enough, so less people will contribute.. :) [04:03:21] on my wiki, article structure uses a lot of subpages so I am bothered by titles that look like bar/foo/bla/bleh [04:03:38] you can disable titles on a per page basis [04:03:51] I can.. but I need titles.. just cleaner ones.. [04:04:03] but you can disable the default one and write a better on [04:04:12] :) [04:04:25] I have already written extensions to fix this.. I am just waiting on a hook to replace the way subpages listing works.. [04:04:29] ok [04:05:12] i use subpages on a few areas. but not all. depending on the importance of the document (or one some areas where the name clashes would be such a pain..) [04:05:15] Wiredtape and exobuzz thanks for all the help [04:05:20] np [04:05:22] I really appreciate it [04:05:31] np [04:05:47] I really have to admit the mediawiki community is always very helpful when I have had a question [04:06:05] I appreciate the mediawiki community too :) [04:06:18] i ask more questions than i answer ;-) [04:08:50] exobuzz, have any tips on how to get contributors? [04:08:57] spamming..

[04:19:42] i only seen it happen once. [04:20:08] there used to be a time when Wiredtape would write many scripts for irc.. back in 93-95.. sigh :-\ [04:20:38] back when one irc network was enough ;-) [04:21:54] back then it was DALnet, EFnet and one more I don't remember [04:22:12] didnt know dalnet was around then [04:22:32] efnet was split from ircnet though wasnt it ? [04:22:45] dunno .. [04:22:59] DALnet was around.. #funfactory was the massive channel back then [04:23:43] aah its too long ago.. my memory [04:24:24] anyway, nice talking w/you... i'm going to sleep after a 13 hour day :) [04:24:45] yeh. sleep well!

[04:26:23] the buttons are done with javascript [04:27:07] is there an extension for it or do i have to do it manually? [04:31:08] ajushi: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CharInsert [04:34:15] i don't thin kthe buttons are done with charinsert, are they? [04:37:20] no, they're not; they're done in Common.js [04:39:50] these buttons are done in Common.js http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Edittools [04:40:01] but these are not http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Edittools [04:40:30] not really "buttons" though in the second case ;) [04:56:01] anyone familiar with $wgAllowSpecialInclusion [04:56:15] including/transcluding special pages?

[09:32:18] Multilanguage user interface or multilanguage articles? [09:32:53] Hi RoanKattouw, similar to wikipedia where I will translate articles to diferent languages [09:33:02] Alright [09:33:09] Well the idea is that you create lots of separate wikis [09:33:21] i.e. en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org, etc. are all separate wikis [09:33:47] thank you but i did it this way [09:33:53] Then you create interwiki bindings between them, like de: --> de.mywiki.org/wiki/$1 [09:33:55] i get a The requested URL /wiki/index.php5/Hauptseite was not found on this server. error [09:34:11] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Interwiki#Interwiki_links_to_other_languages [09:34:13] Hmm [09:34:20] does getSubpageText() always return the last /sub of title or only in namespaces with allowed subpages? [09:34:30] Well can you verify that /wiki/index.php5 actually exists? xD [09:34:47] Danny_B: Only in subpage-enabled NSes [09:34:56] RoanKattouw: thanks...I look into it... [09:34:58] RoanKattouw: yep its there :) [09:35:12] ouch, thus i have to write it myself [09:35:16] and its readable by the apache user [09:35:51] marvxx1: Maybe your Apache doesn't support pretty URLs. Try index.php5?title=Hauptseite rather than index.php5/Hauptseite [09:35:51] RoanKattouw: and one more, how do I get support for different languges for example, japanesse or arabic? [09:36:01] Argh [09:36:14] Well interface language is not a problem, that's all built-in [09:36:24] But I don't know anything about RTL stuff and all that, sorry [09:36:28] 03tstarling * r30255 10/trunk/tools/dumpHTML/ (5 files): assorted minor improvements [09:36:31] RoanKattouw: i get a with that [09:37:01] marvxx1: Try index.php without the 5 [09:38:32] RoanKattouw: that worked...what does i need in apache do have pretty urls? mod_rewrite? [09:38:42] Not necessarily [09:38:50] Try index.php/Hauptseite does that work? [09:40:25] RoanKattouw: thank you. i tried it but it got redirected to index.php5 so i changed the LocalSettings.php and it works [09:40:33] Good [09:40:39] So index.php/Pagename works [09:40:42] there are some differences between SLES and ubuntu server ;-) [09:40:45] RoanKattouw: yes it does [09:40:59] Then do the following things: [09:41:05] 1. Move /wiki to /w [09:41:26] 2. Add Alias /wiki /var/www/htdocs/w/index.php (or whatever the path to /w/index.php is) to your Apache config [09:41:51] 3. Change LocalSettings.php accordingly [09:42:37] ah ok [09:42:39] awsome [09:42:41] i.e. $wgScriptPath = "/w"; and $wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1"; [09:42:41] thank you alot [09:44:44] RoanKattouw: thank you alot...you saved me some time :) [09:44:54] Is it working yet? ;) [09:45:04] If not, don't thank me yet ;) [09:46:07] yes...but i just wanted to get it working at least...the pretty pretty urls are fine but it doesnt matter to me if there is a index.php in the url ;-) [09:46:17] the php5 was the bad part in my config [09:46:22] Alright then [10:11:02] 03(mod) {{#ask}} support for inclusive OR - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12817 04BLOCKER->15enhancement; +comment (10ThomasBleher) [10:20:28] how to pass the data received from parser hook to MonoBookTemplateToolboxEnd hook? [10:23:46] you mean "how do I", not "how to" [10:24:01] "how to" can start a statement, but not a question [10:24:18] thanks for correction [10:24:26] the way to do it is to put the data into a custom property of the ParserOutput object [10:24:56] then it'll be passed back through the parser cache, and into the OutputPageParserOutput hook [10:25:37] alternatively you can use addOutputHook() [10:26:05] $parser->mOutput->addOutputHook( $callback, $data ); [10:26:39] then when the output hook is called, you write your data through to a custom member of OutputPage [10:27:24] then you can hook BeforePageDisplay to pass data from the OutputPage object through to the template [10:28:33] then finally MonobookTemplateToolboxEnd is called with the template as a parameter, and it has your data in it as desired [10:32:25] omg, what a big chunk of work i've bit :-/ [10:35:33] but nothing you do there will be available in any other skin [10:35:47] it's not really the best hook to use unless you're targetting a site with only one skin [10:42:25] you're right. i unfortunately haven't find any other way how to add new portlet after the toolbox :-/ so i wanted at least to try it with this hook and later on somebody or me could rewrite it to be available in all skins [11:10:46] 03tbleher * r30256 10/trunk/ (16 files in 14 dirs): Various whitespace fixes [11:11:28] hi, is the amount of indexed words limited per article?
