[11:00:50] huh? default document index? [11:00:57] like... what? Special:Allpages? [11:00:57] i like search, but when it's a small environment with 2 or so people, i indexes of documents, [11:01:06] use categories then [11:01:10] Duesentrieb, ah,, ok,, i didn't know about that [11:01:19] !categories [11:01:19] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Categories [11:01:27] but most of all: link pages.

[12:10:52] My installation of mediawiki loads very slowly from the server. Contacted their tech support and they said that their computers were operating as they should. Anyone have any ideas how I might be able to speed things up, or any ideas as to what might be slowing things down?

[12:57:36] google could [12:57:44] or wikipedia [12:57:50] A pear is a pomaceous fruit produced by a tree of genus Pyrus [12:57:52] hehe [12:57:59] yum [12:58:06] rewolf: try PEAR [13:01:11] Duesentrieb, I doubt that searches are case sensitive :) [13:01:34] lch: i know that title search is case sensitive. [13:01:42] try "pear php", rewolf [13:01:51] which is what is triggered when you hit enter on the search box. [13:01:57] in wikipedia [13:01:59] not on google [13:02:33] try "PHP Extension and Application Repository" [13:02:40] lch: btw, the first google hit for pear is in fact the php meaning. at least for me (how much does google personalize the results?...) [13:03:56] rewolf: modern mediawiki doesn't really need pear [13:04:01] rewolf: review your localsettings :) [13:04:33] Hi guys [13:05:56] <_elemental> ello [13:07:13] Im trying to have quotes on pages where there are images of the actual " on either side of the text. I viewed the source of the Cquote template fom wikipedia but on my wiki I get the images of the " but also a lot of excess code shows up. Why is this? [13:07:45] <_elemental> no clue [13:10:05] How do you go about getting templates from wikipedia? Do you just view the source? [13:10:27] yes [13:10:36] PamelaC5: or try using Special:Export [13:11:53] jlerner - So I want to be able to have quotes like this on my pages -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cquote2 [13:11:54] Duesentrieb: we are using TitleKey extension, so "Go" is no longer case sensitive [13:12:05] How exactly do I do those on my wiki? [13:12:33] rainman-sr: hm... wasn't it a case-sensitive search with a fallback to case-insiensitive? [13:12:43] maybe not. [13:12:57] !templates | PamelaC5 [13:12:57] --mwbot-- PamelaC5: For more information about templates, see . The most common issues with templates copied from Wikipedia can be fixed by installing ParserFunctions and enabling HTML Tidy .

[13:13:27] and install all extensions it uses [13:13:37] and make sure you have all options right [13:13:47] jlerner: yea, just generally. [13:14:01] she lucked out and picked a [13:14:05] "simple" one [13:14:07] what people try to copy most often are infoboxes. [13:14:12] which are probably also the most complex [13:15:20] So is this all the the code I copy (in the field) -> http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Cquote2&action=edit [13:15:32] y [13:15:43] And I paste it into my wiki as a Cquote2 template? [13:16:15] sure [13:16:23] you can call it whatever you want, might as well give it the same name [13:16:36] go to Template:Cquote2 on your wiki [13:16:41] and click edit [13:16:43] And how do I find out if it's using extensions to operate and what those extensions are? [13:16:58] just see if it works first [13:17:08] it may need ParserFunctions at the bot noted above [13:20:04] Hmm, and it also requires a bit of CSS customization and some images, as cquote2 is not a style class that coems with default CSS/skins. [13:23:39] hmmm.... k.. im upgrading my wiki, and now tried to run teh web installation again (after copying the new files over). but wenever I click on "Setup the wiki first", it adds another /config/index.php so i have ..../config/config/config/config/index.php and still teh page "You must set up the wiki first" [13:29:43] sounds like aliasing or a rewrite rule problem [13:30:14] oh is it? thort it had something to do with short naming thing [13:30:25] k... i have no clue how it works, but ill investigate [13:30:27] thanks [13:30:41] a loop would cause it to do that kind of thing [13:31:04] where it resolves ../config as -> ../config/config -> ../config/config/config, etc. [13:31:06] well it only adds one /config/ per time i click the link [13:31:45] 03simetrical * r32497 10/trunk/extensions/Renameuser/SpecialRenameuser.i18n.php: I don't know what problems in Special:Log r26850 was referring to (more context, please?), but without delimiters, multiword renames can be confusing.
