[11:27:32] hey guys [11:27:40] anyone here who uses Extension:ManageNamespaces [11:27:58] I can't seem to use it to define new namespaces [11:28:12] anyone an idea? [11:33:28] what do you want to define a new namespace? [11:34:13] hi [11:34:19] how can an admin delete a user? [11:35:14] Piero: well I want to have a namespace per project here [11:35:23] Piero: and not a separate wiki per project [11:35:27] it's a choice [11:35:40] Piero: do you use Extension:ManageNamespaces ? [11:36:02] no, but i created a new namespace for my project [11:36:31] w/o editting files on the filesystem? [11:37:16] basically i created a new group of user, and so i created a new namespace for them, so only them can edit the pages with this namespace [11:38:39] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Using_custom_namespaces [11:38:49] maybe that will help you [11:39:56] I know how to create a new namespace [11:40:07] I need to know how to do it with that extension [11:40:09] it doesn't seem to work [11:40:48] ok [11:42:09] 03(NEW) Error message - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13355 minor; normal; Wikimedia: wikibugs; (andrewcleung) [11:43:09] 03mkroetzsch * r31966 10/trunk/extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/ (18 files in 4 dirs): [11:43:09] Extend queries to support sroting by multiple conditions; partially based on earlier patch supplied by Dmitry [11:43:09] Khoroshev [11:43:16] !deleteuser Insolit [11:43:16] --mwbot-- Deleting users is very messy and not recommended, because this breaks referential integrity in the database (they appear in many different tables like users, edit histories, recentchanges, preferences, etc). A safe solution is to block the users, and possibly rename them with . You can also try [11:43:19] dpy: * Make sure that the extension's directory is readable by the HTTP server [11:43:20] * Make sure that the file 'ManageNamespaces.namespaces.php' is readable & writable by the HTTP server [11:44:00] Piero: ugh. it writes into a php file? from the web? that's a piny bit SCARY. [11:44:17] Piero: ah.. [11:44:28] dpy: thats what it says in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ManageNamespaces [11:44:29] 14(INVALID) Error message - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13355 +comment (10roan.kattouw) [11:45:03] dpy: if you add extra namespaces in a function you registered with wgExtensionFunctions, does it dowk? [11:45:09] *work [11:45:19] arggg [11:45:22] in the notes [11:45:24] !!!! [11:45:24] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "!!!". [11:45:34] thanks Duesentrieb [11:45:53] Duesentrieb: I can add namespaces that way yeah [11:46:01] also, shouldn't admin have a special tab for special operations? [11:46:03] dpy: so what elese do you need? [11:46:17] dpy: that is a LOT safer and saner that writing to a php file [11:46:30] (no php file should be writable for the web user. ever) [11:46:45] Duesentrieb: hmm.. that's true... [11:46:58] Insolit: admins have special tabs for special operations on pages where they apply. or special links. [11:47:12] Insolit: there's no "adminning page". admin functions are presented in context [11:47:23] ok thank you [11:47:44] Insolit: for example, you should see "delete" and "protect" tabs on most pages [11:47:44] is it easy to add and customize left panels? [11:47:46] hmm.. anyone heard how to integrate SIMILE witih mediawiki ? [11:48:08] Insolit: and on history pages etc, you will have a "block" link next to the user names [11:48:14] !sidebar | Insolit [11:48:14] --mwbot-- Insolit: To edit the navigation menu on the left, edit [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] using its special syntax. For more details, see . [11:49:27] must learn to use the bot :) [11:50:05] weird thing to install renameuser extension it asks me to checkout all extensions and put them in a Renameuser directory? [11:50:11] why checkout all extensions? [11:50:23] and put them all in a renameuser directory? [11:50:32] lies [11:50:58] I shall only download the renameuser extension right? [11:51:26] i suppose it tells you to checkout all extension files. i.e. all files of this extension. [11:51:45] anyway... [11:51:47] !bundles [11:51:47] --mwbot-- unofficial bundles of extensions are at . Note that these are random snapshots and may contain a completely broken version of the extension. [12:01:56] grrr, I keep getting "You are not allowed to execute the action you have requested" with my ordinary user name ... [12:04:30] !permissions [12:04:30] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "permissions". You might try: !newusergroup [12:04:39] !newusergroup [12:04:39] --mwbot-- To create a new usergroup, simple set permissions for that group in LocalSettings.php, using $wgGroupPermissions. Then, simply add users to that group [12:04:52] !grouppermissions [12:04:52] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "grouppermissions". You might try: !newusergroup [12:07:17] Insolit: thank you for your help, but I'm trying to make sense out of Jean-Lou Dupond's extensions... which are meant to be frontends for all of this [12:08:33] fixed [12:08:44] you have different rights for edit, create and createpage... [12:08:51] awesome! [12:09:40] dpy: i was trying to help myself [12:09:42] lol [12:10:14] !rights | Insolit [12:10:14] --mwbot-- Insolit: For information on customizing user access, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:User_rights >.

[12:10:43] ah there it is :D [12:10:46] thanks Duesentrieb [12:10:54] i added an alias [12:10:59] !permissions [12:10:59] --mwbot-- For information on customizing user access, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:User_rights >.

[12:11:20] :D [12:32:16] mh if i add $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; to my LocalSettings file, i get a Fatal error: PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare writemessagestofile() [12:32:22] any ideas? [12:33:19] Insolit: what file? [12:33:35] (I don't think you've given us the full text of the error) [12:33:36] Cannot redeclare writemessagestofile() (previously declared in /srv/www/wikisiemens/maintenance/language/writeMessagesArray.inc:19) [12:33:51] in that file [12:33:56] uh, any more? [12:34:16] just the referer: referer: http://wiki.medlab.siemens.pt/wiki/Special:Userlogin [12:34:59] what extensions do you have installed? [12:35:49] just Renameuser and Translate [12:36:05] try disabling Translate. [12:36:08] see what happens. [12:36:08] ok [12:36:14] Insolit: i very much doubt that the wgGroupPermissions line has anything to do with the error. [12:36:27] it worked now [12:37:04] Duesentrieb: maybe translate has some weirdness with it [12:37:07] Duesentrieb: with translate and wgGroupPermissions the error occurs [12:37:25] with just one of them enabled no problem happens [12:37:37] well i disable translate then [12:37:44] Insolit: you sure? that sounds extremly strange. [12:37:54] not to say, totally unlikly [12:38:03] Duesentrieb: well i can assure you this happens here [12:38:27] *shrug* [12:38:29] retesting: just with translate things go ok [12:38:45] translate + wggroup definition system fails [12:38:50] just with wggroup it works [12:39:44] Nikerabbit and siebrand wrote that extension [12:39:49] Nikerabbit: any thoughts? [12:39:51] redeclaring a function is always an error [12:40:04] i don't see why that extension should declare the function only if some permission is set [12:41:00] anyway, the extension should safeguard against the function already existing. i suppose it's a version clonflict: the function was moved into core at some point [12:41:15] but that doesn't explain any dependency on permissions either [12:42:26] if you want me to try to debug something please be free to ask me that [12:42:32] *be=feel [12:42:34] 03mkroetzsch * r31967 10/trunk/extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/ (14 files in 2 dirs): For help on querying, link to documentation on semantic-mediawiki.org by default [12:43:14] Insolit: set $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = true; and see if it still happens [12:43:35] Ｈｉ　ａｌｌ，　ａｎｙｂｏｄｙ　ｋｎｏｗ　ｈｏｗ　ｔｏ　ｄｉｓａｂｌｅ　Ｉｍａｇｅ　Ｔｈｕｍｂ　ｉｎ　ｍｅｄｉａｗｉｋｉ？ [12:43:59] Duesentrieb: it does not happen with variable set to true [12:44:39] liuyan: please use normal text like normal people.
