[00:00:12] jlerner: in fact, they might be run without a skin object every being used [00:00:21] #they can not know about the skin [00:01:01] ok - well then can i run SkinTemplate::buildPersonalUrls() inside the parser function? [00:01:05] jlerner: if you want to manipulate those links based on data on the page, you have to attach your data to the parser output. [00:01:26] i don't want to change those links, just want to reference them [00:01:31] jlerner: and then register a function for some hook in the skin, that will read the info from the parser output and updates the skin link [00:01:47] to reference them?... you can't. [00:01:52] ok ;-) [00:01:52] but why would you want to do that=? [00:01:58] it seems very odd. [00:02:11] well - i have some php code that i would like to remove from the skin [00:02:34] for arbitrary reasons of layout ... [00:03:17] jlerner, so you want to build the personal urls inside the content? [00:03:25] Wiredtape: works fine for me: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Duesentrieb/Sandbox [00:03:39] jlerner: err, that's something else entirely, isn't it? [00:03:49] Wiredtape: i just want to return a link - in certain cases - pointing the user to the login and/or register pages [00:04:08] 03(mod) playing some theora videos doesn't work with cortado and java 1 .6 - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13071 (10tstarling) [00:04:34] jlerner: maybe look at the code that populates that skin variable. you can use the same code to get the same links, probably. Should be in SkinTemplate.php, maybe using something from Skin.php [00:04:51] yeah, i have been.. [00:05:11] i think this is the bit i need...'href' => self::makeSpecialUrl( 'Userlogin', 'returnto=' . $this->thisurl ), [00:05:36] trying... [00:07:17] jlerner: note that "self" is context dependant - you would have to see what that method does in the skin class. [00:07:32] y [00:07:36] Duesentrieb, ok, i see u're example and it does work.. i've found what the problem on my wiki was.. i was using an extension to transclude.. and that "built" the article into the page... (therefore sections had edit links pointing to the same page) [00:07:39] thanks for the help [00:09:51] alright, SkinTemplate::makeSpecialUrl( 'Userlogin', 'returnto=' . $this->thisurl ) seems to work fine - if i can just get access to thisurl [00:11:28] which apparently i can grab with $wgTitle->getFullURL() [00:15:11] has anyone made an extension to parse html to wikitext?

[01:14:09] anyone? [01:15:07] Hello good people, I am looking for a sql query, that given a page_id will return the current text of the page, as well as the title? Can this be done with one query? [01:29:11] where is article text saved? [01:31:47] in the text table? [01:32:06] l3jj, yeah, but how do you see the actual text [01:32:07] ? [01:32:24] select * from text? [01:33:04] l3jj, nm, i've figured it out.. [01:36:07] I used namespacedupes.php in maintenance folder, however now the articles are supposedly gone.. ? anyone have any idea? [01:42:00] hey brion, sorry to bother, but perhaps you have an idea.. -> I used namespaceDupes.php, and now the articles that were supposed to be fixed are empty.. db has record of them including id and text.. any ideas? [01:43:13] empty how? [01:44:55] empty, like they never existed.. [01:46:02] url? [01:46:09] http [01:46:38] *http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/Guide:Renewing_a_U.S._passport/NPIC - for instance.. [01:47:27] curious [01:47:39] ok in your export data i can see the guide namespaces ok... http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/Special:Export/Guide:Renewing_a_U.S._passport/NPIC [01:47:53] i'll pastey the output from namespaceDupes.php ? [01:47:56] i do note you seem to be missing a "Portal talk" namespace. that might mess some things up, but shoudln't affect this [01:48:10] it's pretty simple with a looks good at the end? [01:48:27] also do a manual check for 'select * from page where page_namespace=102 nd page_title="Renewing_a_U.S._passport/NPIC";' [01:49:25] note that namespaceDupes.php defaults to audit-only mode. it won't perform any actions unless you pass the --fix parameter [01:49:42] if it lists anything, that's telling you you have to run it with the --fix [01:50:10] when you're fully clean, a new namespaceDupes.php run will not list any problem titles [01:50:17] ok.. [01:50:22] one sec.. [01:50:45] what happens, if I have already extraced text from db to try and fix the missing articles.. [01:50:54] and then i run namespaceDupes.php --fix [01:51:16] um, extracting text sounds like it wouldn't alter your database in any way? [01:51:20] did you do something other than extract it? [01:51:28] like.... copy it somewhere else? [01:51:29] saved the article.. [01:51:38] saved it as what? [01:51:50] if you have a conflicting title, the report will tell you. [01:52:11] you can then optionally provide the --suffix parameter with some suffix, like say /broken, to append to the recovered names [01:52:18] for instance: http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/Guide:Renewing_a_U.S._passport exists now, because i edited the empty page and copied the source from db [01:53:31] so would running namespaceDupes.php look like this-> namespaceDupes.php --fix --suffix /broken -> would result in
/broken [01:55:28] resolving on page... php: relocation error: php: symbol inflateInit2_, version libmysqlclient_15 not defined in file libmysqlclient_r.so.15 with link time reference [01:56:09] ok you've got some low-level system library problem there [01:57:26] ok.. i wonder why it gives this error only for one of the articles that need fixing.. [01:57:33] but thank you very much for the help.. [02:09:37] brion, thanks, everything works now.. :) [02:09:45] woo [02:25:59] Would like to know if there is anything that would cause a wiki to be really slow to load besides having a server that is not up to par. I have a fast connection and server through GoDaddy Hosting services but wiki takes a long time to load. Only two images on every page... [02:26:15] Are there any tips that can be applied to make a wiki faster? [02:28:53] If anyone has any tips please help a wiki user.... [02:32:15] *crichins waves hello to room... [02:33:53] *crichins tries to keep from becoming disappointed with lack of help.... [02:35:20] godaddy hosting *is* probably pretty slow [02:35:39] *Simetrical discovers that his localhost web server has been publicly advertising itself on the Internet for who knows how long, hurray [02:35:50] general recommendations -- get a reasonably fast dedicated host, ensure that you have an opcode cache configured for php [02:36:16] ADMIN [02:40:42] *crichins doesn't have the money to afford purchasing own T1 and his Job has a DS3 that is being wasted but can't setup server because he doesn't have access to routers... :( [02:41:52] You don't need to purchase your own T1, you just lease a small server from someone. Depends how much you want to pay, of course. [02:42:32] MediaWiki is a fairly heavyweight package. You may want to try other wiki software, some is much quicker (but in most cases has less features, and no Wikipedia compatibility). [02:42:40] therin lies the problem... trying to find a reliable place.. or find a company that will co-locate cheaply... [02:43:22] Colo is overkill for a single MediaWiki install. [02:43:27] 03aaron * r31107 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/FlaggedRevs.php: Make sure '*' is added [02:43:35] Unless it's really really big. [02:44:03] Site is only just getting started at this point... [02:44:52] If one were able to get a server of ones own, how many wiki's do you think could be ran from server before server would start suffering.. [02:45:04] Use 3.0 GHz with 2 GB of ram for example... [02:45:36] and say 3 250GB HDD's in Raid 5 [02:46:28] Depends how busy they are. [02:46:40] Wikipedia uses a few hundred servers with much better stats than that. :D [02:47:11] Say expected 150 hits an min [02:48:09] You shouldn't need much of a server, for 150 hits/min. My server gets 22/s and isn't hugely better than your stats. [02:48:27] *crichins wishes he had a server setup and connections available like Wikipedia.... [02:48:34] I'd suggest that CPU and RAM are much more important than disks here. [02:48:53] Server would be hosting multiple wiki's [02:49:05] If you don't have any sort of better caching, this may help with load times: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgUseDatabaseMessages I haven't tried it yet, and the wiki wouldn't be as easily customizable... [02:49:06] For the web server, anyway. MySQL will want fast disks too. [02:49:09] Current GoDaddy host currently holds two [02:50:08] It's very hard to predict this kind of stuff, honestly. [02:50:16] me thinks I need to ask for a raise at work... [02:50:52] Or conviece work to allow me to use bandwith... HAH.. good luck /me [02:50:58] How Can I give syopses 'Crat powers using LocalSettings.php [02:51:22] Thedjatclubrock, $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['userrights'] = true; [02:51:30] Thank you [02:51:38] That will give them userrights. If you've modified bureaucrat settings, you'll have to modify sysops similarly. [02:52:58] *crichins despises going back to using static html after using MediaWiki!!!! :) [03:00:50] How do I add Steward and Developer levels to a wiki [03:01:31] jlerner, Is your first name Julia? [03:01:44] Thedjatclubrock: no [03:02:04] Simetrical: How do I add Steward and Developer levels to a wiki [03:02:29] Thedjatclubrock, just add the appropriate $wgGroupPermissions lines, and install any extensions you might want. [03:02:50] The developer group is stupid and does nothing anyway these days, really. Wikimedia stewards are identical to the default bureaucrats. [03:05:03] Simetrical: Is there a page I can look at that lists different permissions [03:06:40] !rights | Thedjatclubrock [03:06:40] --mwbot-- Thedjatclubrock: For information on customizing user access, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:User_rights >. For common examples of restricting access using both rights and extensions, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access >. [03:06:52] :P [03:18:22] !svnb [03:18:22] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "svnb". [03:18:27] !svn [03:18:27] --mwbot-- Subversion is a version control software that allows users to download the very latest version of a branch without having to wait for someone to get around to packaging it. Advantages to using Subversion include the latest version, vastly simplified updating, the ability to roll back an upgrade, the ability to create and submit patches. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Subversion for more information. [03:29:30] Simetrical: IS there a way to install checkuser without the ability to use the command line [03:30:04] I don't know. [03:30:07] Probably. [03:30:09] Ask AaronSchulz. [03:31:28] AaronSchulz: IS there a way to install checkuser without the ability to use the command line [03:35:17] Thedjatclubrock: you need to be able to upload a directory to the extensions directory, and you need to be able to edit LocalSettings.php, if you can do that without command line then you can install it [03:35:55] astro76: Good, now what did the command line do? [03:36:38] not sure I follow, Thedjatclubrock [03:37:31] to have it working at all you at least need mysql and file access [03:37:55] to import any old IP data from recentchanges, you need to run install.php [03:38:13] AaronSchulz: I have both, install.php just does older stuff? [03:38:35] install.php does mysql stuff and the import [03:38:46] but for mysql, it just runs a mysql file [03:38:57] you can input that directly into mysql [03:39:14] AaronSchulz:And what would that be? [03:39:47] cu_changes.sql & cu_log.sql [03:40:24] AaronSchulz: SO I can just import them into the database? [03:40:49] the tables can be created directly, yes [03:41:09] the "import" I was referring to, was a batch migration [03:42:14] it is not absolutely necessary [03:42:23] sorry Thedjatclubrock, I completely forgot about that step ;) [03:42:35] AaronSchulz: So just create the tables, or is there data in that table [03:42:57] they will be empty [03:43:13] OK [03:43:22] the point of install.php, if $wgPutIPinRC was true, is to populate the data retroactively [03:43:36] if you didn't have that as true, it doesn't matter anyway ;) [03:44:07] Any one have any recommended reading on automating a MediaWiki backup... even if it involves cron scripts...

[08:07:15] would that, or would that not, be cool? [08:07:42] perhaps [08:07:45] good for maintenance cats [08:08:04] well yeah, that's the general idea [08:08:18] I always hated that "cleanup" and "islands of X" are treated the same [08:08:30] anyway, I just wrote it [08:08:52] I'd say it would be "cool" [08:09:36] and the backend is so generic that I think I might write a few other little features while I'm at it, to make better use of it [08:09:55] the commons people have been asking for a while for the ability to overlay a deletion warning on an image, I could do that [08:10:19] and I could add, say, a featured article star to every article in the featured article category [08:10:41] say... {{#caticon: [[Image:featured article.png]]}} [08:11:35] oooh, naughty ;) [08:11:43] how would you position it?

[08:12:38] of course [08:13:28] I guess that could go for the protection categories too [08:13:56] is that just [[Category:Protected pages]] or is there some more fine-grained breakdown to that? [08:14:23] it's always seemed a bit silly to me that you'd want to edit an article every time its protected status changes [08:15:05] I played around with a site message, but it didn't work out, then I forgot [08:15:20] but, yes, it is silly [08:15:29] and that is on top of the null edit :) [08:33:20] image overlay might be a little bit too ambitious for right this instant... [08:33:28] I might just commit the hidden category feature [08:35:35] but it was a nice little spurt of motivation while it lasted [08:36:08] TimStarling: sounds quite cool [08:37:12] *Werdna is after something smallish to do.

[20:34:50] I'll tell you [20:34:52] wait [20:34:54] thx ;-) [20:35:47] Create a template named Sample [20:36:11] yes ( http://www.projectwally.com/index.php/Sjabloon:Sample ) [20:36:59] paste this: You just created this page with the "topic" value set to '''{{{topic}}}''' [20:37:27] Now go back to the form, insert a topic value there, and push the button! [20:37:38] ok [20:37:40] let's see [20:37:41] Insert "Hojjat_amok' for topic, for example! [20:38:19] damn [20:38:22] you are great [20:38:28] ;) [20:38:33] this is really what i wanted [20:38:41] I don't fell that amok any more! [20:38:45] hehe [20:39:05] i really wanna thank you, [20:39:12] is there something i can do foryou? [20:39:26] you already did [20:39:26] I don't feel amok any more! [20:39:38] and believe me, that was the first time I every thought about "Forms" extension :) [20:39:54] haha [20:40:08] yeah but i'm just 1 month 'doing' mediawiki :-) [20:41:43] do you have an own mediawiki page? [20:44:29] sorry [20:44:35] what do you mean? A user page? [20:44:51] no just an own mediawiki page such as my website? [20:44:56] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Huji ? [20:45:23] so you mean to ask "Do you run a MediaWiki web site on your own"? and the answer is no [20:45:29] hehe [20:45:30] ok :-) [20:45:33] I have some local test wikis, but nothing public [20:45:54] Actually, Wikimedia Foundation does that for me :) They run lots of wikis which I work on :p [20:46:04] haha [20:46:07] also an option :-) [20:46:22] I keep my options open :) [20:50:47] can you give me another example if I want to add a second textbox? [20:53:55] got it already [20:55:08] oops, I wasn't noticing [20:55:11] good you've got it [20:55:15] I'm new to it too :) [20:55:23] now it's just creating the right forms :-) [20:59:08] jep i've got it [20:59:09] :-) [21:05:25] HockeyInJune, is there any possibility that i can put an enter between two textfields? [21:07:16] Hojjat i mean [21:07:33] ehem [21:07:53] what do you mean by an enter? a free line? [21:07:57] yes [21:08:06] hemm... again, I'm new to it, but let me check it out [21:08:39] HockeyInJune was better ;) [21:09:10] what if you add a new line in between like this: topic|  [21:09:18] Wiredtape: lol [21:09:44]
? [21:09:44] Hojjat, it's the best game you can name :) [21:10:02] Wiredtape: pardon? [21:10:13] oh you mean "Hockey"? [21:10:36] :D [21:10:39] yeah, it's part of a hockey song :) [21:10:40] nope :-) [21:10:52] WonderWally: then let me reinstall the extension on my test wiki! [21:11:04] okey [21:11:15] Wiredtape: never been to hockey.. I only have occasionally wathced Hockey on Ice from TV [21:11:55] Hojjat, I like hockey a lot, I actually play.. and so.. :) r u in north america? [21:12:21] No! Es usted norte americanos?! [21:12:48] Wonderwally, though i have no frame of reference to what you want to do (didn't feel like reading back) - I know that SemanticForms extension is similar to forms extension [21:12:56] Hojjat, right now, yes... :) [21:13:22] 03dale * r31127 10/trunk/extensions/MetavidWiki/ (5 files in 4 dirs): [21:13:22] * crystal clear icon for video [21:13:22] * minnor template work [21:13:29] Wiredtape, the form is installed... what do you mean? [21:14:08] Wonderwally, I thought you were having troubles with it :) (again, i didn't read back..) [21:14:30] hehe [21:14:36] i just installed it, thx to Hojjat [21:14:45] just making a template right now :) [21:15:00] WonderWally: I'm going to read through the code now! [21:15:11] ok, good luck :) [21:15:28] hehe [21:16:47] WonderWally: no. It doesn't support spacing between form elements [21:16:59] I'm thinking of a hack tho [21:17:12] too bad :) [21:17:31] but no problem [21:17:39] i think i know maybe a way to fix it [21:18:37] which is? [21:19:36] look http://www.projectwally.com/index.php/Speciaal:Formulier/Sample i just going to use for everyting a textarea, and just edit the rows and columns... so it makes for every textbox a new proper title [21:20:13] hmm.. [21:20:24] you will see when its finished [21:20:27] I think the textboxes are too tightly attahed.. and to me it sounds like a "bug" [21:20:32] may be we should fix it? [21:21:10] hehe [21:21:24] would be nice, but i don't know anything about making hacks [21:22:09] I'm a hacker.. [21:22:48] allrighty :-) [21:23:17] use the file I'm sending to you instead of the original one, for now [21:23:34] it'll make the text boxes appear a little less .. touching [21:23:50] And file a bug in bugzilla [21:23:52] what type of file is it, because i think mirc ignored it [21:23:54] !bugzilla | WonderWally [21:23:54] --mwbot-- WonderWally: All bugs in MediaWiki should be reported at http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org. This is also the place to request site configuration changes, new features or enhancements to existing features, although bear the following points in mind before making a feature/enhancement request: 1) If the request is specific to a Wikimedia wiki, please discuss the issue on that wiki first. 2) Consider whether a custom extension would be more appropriate. [21:24:04] WonderWally: it was .php [21:24:11] strange [21:24:13] shall I send it in zip again? [21:24:18] yes please [21:25:19] opening with dreamweaver cs3 [21:25:20] don't forget: file a bug on bugzilla. say that the form fields should be separated for better reading. I or another developer will fix it later [21:25:28] just upload it [21:25:42] in your extensions/SpecialForm folder [21:25:46] ok [21:26:29] remember: (1) this is a short-term remedy, untill you either find a better exntension or get this one fixed (2) it is not a good idea to get php files over IRC.. I might have put something harmful in them [21:27:09] well, I didn't, but.. you know what I mean, right? [21:27:34] yes totally understand [21:28:07] good [21:28:29] uploaded [21:33:36] Werdna: thank you! [21:34:17] hm [21:36:03] refresh the form [21:36:49] yes [21:37:04] 03gri6507 * r31128 10/trunk/extensions/UsageStatistics/ (SpecialUserStats.php SpecialUserStats_body.php): [21:37:04] v1.5 [21:37:04] * made the extension work again with older version of MW which didn't have the wfLoadExtensionMessages() function [21:37:04] * made the extension work off a new userright called 'viewsystemstats' [21:41:12] 03huji * r31129 10/trunk/extensions/Randomrootpage/Randomrootpage.php: Versioning [21:41:15] :D [21:41:25] ^o) [21:45:07] Hojjat, ive got to go... but i'll speak you tomorrow or in a few days, thx again for your help! [21:45:22] sure. see you later [21:48:25] hi all [21:48:49] i was wondering if there is a way to edit the users on my wiki, such as their passwords and the like, if they lose their registration info? [21:49:26] if a user forgets his password, he can get a new password if he has registered an email address [21:49:41] ok [21:49:52] i was only wondering in the case that they were to lose access to their email s well [21:50:25] passwords are stored in an encrypted way. I don't know of any easy way to change them [21:51:26] there is a script for this [21:51:37] ialex: I didn't know [21:52:10] ok [21:52:20] well i'm mostly just wonderig, were a user to lose access to their email [21:52:29] and tehrefore could not get a new password emailed to them [21:52:36] is there a way that I can edit their account on the admin backend [21:52:40] to give them a different email [21:52:48] i can see how this would all be a PITA [21:52:59] botkiller: ialex is right [21:53:10] you can run maintenance/changePassword.php for that reason [21:53:38] php changePassword.php --user=user --password=password [21:53:55] requires direct access to the server, tho [21:53:56] or http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PasswordReset [21:54:28] the later (the extension) doesn't requrie direct access for the server. You just need to upload and install the extension [21:59:03] hojjat: thnx [21:59:17] thank Ialex! I wasn't aware of it myself either! [22:00:49] I need to find a way to parse wikitext and return html, without using a skin, is there a method to do this? [22:01:30] use action=render [22:02:09] yeah, look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=render' [22:05:35] ialex, hojjat: I should be more clear, I am trying to do this on the commandline, not via the web [22:06:01] *Hojjat looks at ialex [22:06:13] however the action=render is perfect, I just need to know how to do that on the commandline [22:06:36] fkcl, wget? [22:07:05] wiredtape: I would think there is a faster way, but if all else fails, I can use curl [22:07:59] fkcl, you can use the api, and do the same probably.. though if you want commandline than curl would be the way to go.. [22:09:51] what's with firefox [22:10:11] * dictionary.. keeps saying words are wrong when they clearly aren't.. [22:11:26] Wiredtape: where can I find details on the api methods? [22:11:49] !api |fkcl [22:11:49] --mwbot-- The MediaWiki API provides direct, high-level access to the data contained in the MediaWiki databases. Client programs should be able to use the API to login, get data, and post changes. Find out more at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API [22:18:43] hello everyone, havent been on irc for 10 years... god i'm old... [22:19:14] oded, :) some of us have been here that long :) [22:19:45] yeah... crazy... [22:20:31] so, how can i get support? [22:20:35] ask.. [22:20:42] cool... [22:21:07] i moved my mediawiki to a new server an now i get an error on page... [22:21:26] it seems as though i'm missing a ";" [22:21:45] ok.. [22:22:07] i didnt change a thing... [22:22:18] could the server be casung this? [22:22:25] Wiredtape wonders if brion_ and brion__ are the same person :) [22:22:34] oded, it might be a difference in the php ver [22:23:00] oy [22:23:04] had some wifi issues at the office [22:23:22] you still have another ghost [22:23:38] eh, if it's not on my main nick it can just wait until it times out :D [22:23:39] oded, i would check for a missing ";" ... [22:24:01] so... how do i check the version? [22:24:40] if you're on shared hosting u can just ask your host.. [22:26:01] ok, i will, if it is indeed a different v. is there anything i can do? [22:26:39] find the missing ; [22:27:26] :-) where should i look [22:27:28] ? [22:27:34] it should say on the error [22:28:23] it says the line and column, but which file? monobook? localsettings? [22:28:51] well.. it should say so as well.. [22:29:08] why don't you just paste the error (if it's one line than you can do it here) [22:29:37] hi [22:29:47] anyone use ConfirmEdit extension? [22:30:57] Soshen|NIHAO: we do at wikimedia :) [22:31:28] i've installed it like manual say [22:31:38] but dont appears nothing on wiki [22:32:17] Soshen|NIHAO: what version of mediawiki, and what exactly did you do, and where are you looking? [22:32:22] url to your site may help [22:32:38] my wiki: http://animewiki.nanoda.com [22:32:48] manual: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit#ConfirmEdit [22:33:26] i've MediaWiki: 1.11.0 [22:35:15] http://animewiki.nanoda.com/index.php?title=Speciale:Entra&type=signup&returnto=Pagina_principale <- so far so good [22:35:41] yeah but [22:35:57] i read that by defaul te captcha will be on editing action [22:35:59] by user [22:36:13] for stop spamming by nonregistered user's editing [22:37:17] on edits that add URLs, yes [22:37:24] so it doesn't trigger until you save the edit [22:37:59] and there are a way for have captcha for all editing? [22:38:17] you can change the trigger settings. see the settings in ConfirmEdit.php [22:38:24] http://animewiki.nanoda.com/index.php?title=Fgdgdf&action=edit [22:38:28] hey wiredtape, go to http://oded.spd.co.il/wiki/index.php/Wit [22:38:31] note however that for editing, it'll still only show when you save, which can be confusing [22:38:41] now i can add all link external [22:38:53] try to save [22:38:57] no captcha appears [22:40:35] $wgCaptchaTriggers['edit'] = false; // Would check on every edit [22:40:35] $wgCaptchaTriggers['create'] = false; // Check on page creation. [22:40:37] www.pippo.it is not a link [22:40:38] maybe that :D [22:40:46] that's just mentioning a string of letters and periods [22:41:23] mmmm [22:41:29] and francy's are different? [22:42:05] FancyCaptcha addon [22:45:25] [23:45] > mmmm [22:45:26] [23:45] > and francy's are different? [22:45:26] [23:46] > FancyCaptcha addon [22:50:29] is there anyway to find out how many users logged in on a particular day (somewhere in database)? or will I have to hack it to start tracking this type of data? [22:51:18] xtine, specifically for logging in/out i saw an extension.. [22:51:46] but i have been thinking of starting a mw analytics engine.. if you're interested.. [22:52:28] Wiredtape: that would be incredibly useful, i'd be glad to help on it [22:52:40] any chance you know action script? :) [22:53:00] no :( [22:53:23] just been digging through php/mysql stuffs [22:54:01] ok.. well i'll keep searching for someone.. but if you're interested in collaborating on this leave me some contact info on http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/User:Bfhappy/analytics .. and we can start from there.. [22:55:18] noted [22:55:50] k :) [22:57:43] 03huji * r31130 10/trunk/extensions/ (12 files in 12 dirs): Adding/updating Persian translations [22:57:54] :D [23:08:03] anyone know why writing a template with spacing should cause an extra

after the template? [23:08:13] for instance.. if i have a template like this: [23:08:33] {{template|foo=bar}} there's no

[23:08:38] but for {{template [23:08:48] |foo=bar [23:08:50] }} [23:08:54] there's a

[23:09:01] 03sanbeg * r31131 10/trunk/extensions/Poem/Poem.php: add "compact" option [23:11:03] Wiredtape: I guess that also depends on the tempalte [23:11:23] if you change the template definition and make sure there is no free line after it (like by adding an empty it may get fixed [23:11:58] Wiredtape: if that didn't help, you can always file a bug :D [23:12:01] O_O [23:12:07] Wiredtape: you might want to use paste bin [23:12:13] ahh, k :-) [23:12:48] Hojjat, as I remember, you helped me with this problem before :) (well something similar) , i don't think it's about a free line this time.. [23:13:21] Wiredtape: a little late here, so I'm going to go.. you can send a mail if you want [23:13:54] Thanks Hojjat. i'll let you sleep .. no sense in bothering you with this :) [23:14:13] if anyone else might know anything.. [23:14:31] example can be seen here: http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/Limited_Liability_Company/US/MD/Formation (notice the

above the content..) and template is http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/Template:Recipe [23:20:02] hi :) should trunk actually work? [23:20:35] PHP Fatal error: Class 'DOMDocument' not found in /home/community/pgsqldocs/public_html/includes/Preprocessor_DOM.php on line 566 [23:23:36] linuxpoet: Are you using PHP4? [23:23:39] linuxpoet: if you have the xml dom module installed... [23:23:47] (and php5, of course) [23:23:55] ehhh [23:23:59] no php5 [23:24:06] linuxpoet: but no, trunk is not guaranteed to work. it may be in a completly broken state. [23:24:16] Oh I get that it may not work [23:24:20] but I was hoping to get a front page :) [23:24:22] it's just whatever someone checked in a minute ago [23:24:36] so running php5 what am I possibly missing [23:24:38] the xml dom module? [23:24:39] linuxpoet: you may get a front poage. you may also get a corrupt database. [23:24:49] you can't corrupt postgresql :) [23:24:57] you can junk your data though [23:25:03] yes. [23:25:13] anyway, php5 should have the dom module per default [23:25:18] ok let me check [23:25:24] at least it had it for me until now. [23:25:27] Duesentrieb, could you remind me what the tech mailing list was please? [23:25:39] wikitech-l? [23:25:46] @wikimedia.org?
