I'd want to use URL-hiding as redirect method in order to make direct searches using www.dotawiki.de/wiki/searchterm possible, but when i select this option and try to edit a page the problem occurs. [10:48:03] Once i hit the save changes button i get an error called "token_suffix_mismatch" . The english message corresponding to this error is "Your edit has been rejected because your client mangled the punctuation characters in the edit token. The edit has been rejected to prevent corruption of the article text. [10:48:04] This sometimes happens when you are using a buggy web-based anonymous proxy service." [10:48:06] If i switch to frame-redirect in the united-domains config, everything works fine, but the subdirectories aren't shown in the page-URLs, i.e. dotawiki.de/wiki/Hauptseite appears as dotawiki.de [10:48:28] Does anyone know what could cause the error? [10:48:28] Thanks for any kind of help [11:03:41] hello, [11:05:34] hi [11:09:08] Is there anyway to replace every users skin option in the mediawiki to be a new one (or at least replace everyone using monobook to a different one) ?

I like the Special::Emailuser/X page in mediawiki. I'm just dissapointed that it can only be used by logged in users.

[14:11:35] yes [14:11:38] Page protection... [14:11:42] Not locking... [14:11:49] i do some editing in another "window" i mean tab [14:11:58] but while i am editing [14:12:10] i dont want that article to change [14:12:22] so, you want to avoid edit conflicts. [14:12:26] yes [14:12:56] at first i wanted to make my extension with multi user ability... like checking if it was edited and so on... [14:13:11] but now my tutor said i should concentrate on making it single user first [14:13:12] Asga: something like that exists already [14:13:25] by locking the article i edit/annotate [14:13:31] it does? [14:13:42] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Ajax_Show_Editors [14:14:00] doesn't lock, only shows current editing status [14:15:15] hm [14:16:04] i don't need an extension which shows me if someone is editing the article [14:16:14] i thought i could use article flags [14:16:16] Asga: you can see it working on http://translatewiki.net [14:16:18] to lock an article [14:17:21] back to your original question, I dont' seen anything in the DB schema that would support this [14:17:26] *see [14:17:39] aren't there flags in the database which are checked before editPage makes a page editable [14:17:41] hm [14:18:07] the checks are on user and page permission [14:18:24] page_restrictions ? [14:18:36] well i could change page permissions right? [14:19:58] In principle, I think so. that's kind of abusing it, but it should work. [14:20:37] anywone willing to enhance ajax showing editors to support non-existent pages too? [14:21:09] in tables.sql it says something like [14:21:10] -- Comma-separated set of permission keys indicating who [14:21:10] -- can move or edit the page.

Where is the "raw" HTML for MW? Ofcourse its possible to write html directly into the monobook.php file. [14:30:15] But I want to edit the php files that are linked in the monobook.php file?

[23:07:46] thanks : ) [23:07:51] MZMcBride: i think it would be nice to have something like that per action too, not only per namespace. and it would be nice if it would actually work. the current version is horribly broken in preview mode etc. [23:07:54] so, should I delete it after the update? [23:08:06] no, leave it there for future use [23:08:12] !adminsettings [23:08:12] --mwbot-- AdminSettings.php is an additional configuration file for use with command line maintenance scripts. See AdminSettings.sample in your installation directory for details. [23:08:16] \o/ [23:08:29] Duesentrieb: per page and per namespace notices would help stop the buffoonery that's been going on [23:08:58] *amidaniel lols at buffoonery [23:09:02] mikeX: it'S a good idea not to have it readable from the web though. if your shell user is different from the web user. [23:09:37] MZMcBride: per page?... that would be quite tricky. it shoulbe *on* page then. no idea how to do that [23:09:59] well, maybe, for editing... by manually parsing whatever is put into the edit box... [23:10:06] Can I fetch a page from a mediawiki in a format other than formatted HTML? [23:10:07] i see, does the wikidb user created by the installation script have the necessary privs for update? [23:10:20] well, if we could have it on &action=edit above the text box, it would stop things like http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:In_the_news&action=edit [23:10:34] aquarius: you an fetch the original wikitext, too [23:10:46] aquarius: other formats are not supported (mainly because no real parser exist) [23:10:51] Duesentrieb: ah, that sounds useful. How can I do that? [23:11:01] mikeX: usually not [23:11:15] aquarius: Apppend ?action=raw to the URL [23:11:37] mikeX: which is pretty much the reason to have an adminsettings file: to provide a db user with more privileges (namely, adding tables, changin structure, keys, etc) [23:11:46] aquarius: action=raw [23:12:00] aquarius: for rendered html without the fuzz, use action=render [23:12:09] (url parameters) [23:12:11] amidaniel: ah, I tried that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Quantum_Leap_episodes?action=raw gives "Raw pages must be accessed through the primary script entry point"? [23:12:38] oh, I need to do index.php?title=whatever&action=raw? [23:12:41] yes [23:12:47] security feature [23:12:48] Oh, yeah, they fucked with all that on WP ... use index.php?title=...&action=raw [23:12:54] got it. thanks, all :) [23:13:08] Does that *really* add any security whatsoever? [23:13:15] Seems silly to me [23:13:33] yeah, some browsers read things like title=Foo.zip as whatever the extension said [23:13:45] is clearly secure from stupid people like me who take a minute to work out how to do it :) [23:13:53] hehe [23:14:13] how can I extract the new version while overriding the previous files? [23:14:29] MZMcBride: I understand that ... so then i link to index.php instead of /wiki/...?action=raw .. I don't see how prohibiting the latter adds any security [23:14:47] amidaniel: yes, it does add security. because if you make a page called evil.js, and call it with evil.js?action=raw, MSIE will execute it as JS [23:15:06] because MSIE is a broken piece of shit. but that's nothing new [23:15:26] I'm well aware of that as well ... that's not my question [23:15:51] How is /wiki/evil.js?action=raw any less secure than /w/index.php?title=evil.js&action=raw [23:15:54] ? [23:16:40] /w/ only downloads index.php [23:16:44] 03siebrand * r30813 10/trunk/extensions/ (5 files in 2 dirs): [23:16:44] * Import NewUserMessage from http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:NewUserMessage&oldid=146872. Made a few adjustments (added descriptionmsg, bumped version). [23:16:44] * Add support for Translate [23:16:47] amidaniel: because msie looks at the "file" part of the url, takes the extension, and goes "oh, this is javascript, i better run it"! [23:17:02] Ohhh .. I see [23:17:07] Fun [23:17:13] *amidaniel stabs Microsoft [23:17:43] I think FF did the same thing [23:18:00] MrZ-man: no. never. not if the http header says it's text/plain [23:18:07] No, FF I know for sure actually checks the MIME type [23:18:46] Well, or what the http header says the MIME type is, at least [23:18:50] if there's no content-type header, then i'm not sure. falling back to looking at the file extension may be reasonable [23:19:00] Perhaps [23:19:09] That may depend upon how the OS processes it though [23:19:20] I know Windows tends to be very trusting of file extensions [23:22:19] anyone here i need some help with a noob question. i just installed mediawiki. [23:23:23] ask [23:23:39] i'm trying to change the links in the navigation sidebar [23:23:46] can't figure out how [23:23:48] edit MediaWiki:Sidebar [23:23:51] read the manual [23:23:51] it's on-wiki [23:24:02] i tried that it's a blank page [23:24:12] i'm using 1.5 because i don't have php5 [23:24:13] did you try editing it? [23:24:34] yeah nothing is in there when i edit it. should it still be blank when editing? [23:25:52] i go to /wiki/index.php?title=Wiki:Sidebar [23:26:20] also tried /wiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar [23:26:28] So you need to create it :) [23:26:54] will it accept text or links only? [23:27:53] ah cool i see it now :) [23:27:57] example: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Sidebar [23:28:21] i swear it wasn't there before i edited it. now it shows up with the links in the article. weird. [23:31:50] LG|Devil: 1.6 is the latest stable version for PHP4 BTW. [23:35:01] how do i upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6? [23:35:21] just overwrite all files in ftp then go to /install? [23:37:44] LG|Devil: yes, unpack the files into the installation directory, and rerun the install script (or run the update script) [23:38:15] hmm the sidebar did change but not on the mainpage. why is that? [23:38:59] LG|Devil: add &action=purge to end end of the url [23:39:03] it is cached [23:39:37] ah thank you that worked :) [23:44:57] 03aaron * r30814 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/ (FlaggedArticle.php FlaggedRevs.php FlaggedRevsPage.php): [23:44:57] * Make sure output metadata is included [23:44:57] * Tweak parsing/caching [23:46:04] 03siebrand * r30815 10/trunk/extensions/UsageStatistics/SpecialUserStats.i18n.php: Remove 2 leading spaces [23:50:16] is Paul Grinberg (gri6507) ever on IRC? [23:50:39] oh i was wrong i do have 1.6 :) [23:50:41] LG|Devil: what Skizzerz forgot to mention: make a backup first! [23:50:50] no need [23:50:53] oyeah :P [23:50:54] LG|Devil: Special:Version is your friend [23:51:05] yeah i just found it and confirmed [23:51:10] LG|Devil: anyway... 1.6 is old... and make sure you are at least running the latest patch level [23:51:17] siebrand: It would appear not. [23:51:49] my server doesn't have php5. i did originally try 1.10 but it spit at me for not have php5. [23:52:18] o.0 [23:52:21] brion was on!!?! [23:52:40] Skizzerz: he often is... [23:53:01] yeah, but I scanned the userlist awhile ago and didn't see him there >_> [23:53:38] the 1.6 download i got has the latest patches included i believe because all 1.6 modified dates for release and patch are the same timestamp [23:56:01] LG|Devil: just look at the minor version number on Special:Version [23:56:01] 03(NEW) Sidebar go back to default once every day - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12986 normal; normal; Wikimedia: General/Unknown; (jan) [23:56:08] ir schould be 1.6.10 [23:57:13] yup 1.6.10 [23:57:19] i'm good [23:57:19]
