[09:57:02] what exactly do you want? no name? [09:57:13] only a name [09:57:27] but ref only works without content when using [09:57:40] is apparently not supported [09:57:48] ahh, you wern't clear on that... [09:58:03] I don't think #tag does self closing [09:58:47] Splarka: I think the problem is that doesn't support and #tag doesn't self close tags when called without content ... [09:59:34] right, but you said "i'm trying to include a within a template" not "i'm trying to include a within a template" [09:59:38] so were confusing us! [10:00:33] one of the two behaviors should be changed then [10:00:36] sorry for that. indeed I want to provide both ways, i. e. creating a new ref only with content (which is no problem) and using an old ref only with name (which is a problem as i stated above) [10:00:51] Splarka: Maybe you have any other idea how to create such a ref? [10:01:12] you could pass it as a parameter to a template maybe [10:01:25] {{foo|bar=}} [10:01:27] ugly tho [10:01:43] jep, quite ugly. [10:02:42] I think it would be quite an improvement to both mechanisms (ref and #tag) if they would cope with this case. the ref behaviour is nearly a bug imho [10:02:43] is [10:02:43] {{#tag:ref| |name=foo}} [10:02:50] not to your liking? [10:03:26] hmm, from what I can see, the content is just ignored on subsequent named tags [10:04:14] bar [10:04:15] anything here is ignored [10:04:17] nope, that's not working. it overwrites the content of the ref [10:04:21] jep [10:04:46] well, depends on the order [10:04:57] if you can have the first named one load first it seems to work, right? [10:05:13] yeah, but this is quite ugly [10:05:20] okay, file a bug [10:05:26] hello [10:05:28] produces an error [10:05:39] Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content [10:05:42] as you know [10:05:51] Splarka: im typing already ;) [10:05:56] and instead should be treated identical to [10:06:09] heh [10:06:12] fair enough [10:06:24] that is a horrible error too, incorrect and bass ackwards [10:07:21] but that is a good point about #tag [10:07:35] it can't predict if an extension supports vs [10:07:54] 03(NEW) accept explicitly closed empty tags - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14190 normal; normal; MediaWiki extensions: Cite; (codeispoetry) [10:08:05] Splarka: I'm going to file the next bug for #tag [10:08:31] oh hell, what a layout ...

I have a small question.. if user logs out from mediawiki while being in user preferences page.. mediawiki correctly forwards to logout page. but then if you press "back" in your browser, you get back to the last users preferences and can see his information.. is there way to prevent this? [12:23:08] no, that's a limitation of your browser. [12:23:49] your browser stores the information from the page. If you refresh that page, you correctly get an error message. [12:26:07] Werdna: no way to force browser to reload that page? [12:26:44] no [12:26:50] why is this a big deal? [12:27:04] on public computers people get to see your email address for example. [12:27:55] it's up to the browser to provide a way to erase all such data. [12:28:06] this is the same for all webpages, as far as i know [12:28:10] but how do other web services do this.. after logging out you can't go back.. [12:28:17] pressing "back" in the browser does not cause it to reload the page. [12:28:28] basse: do they? really? [12:28:34] even with javascript off?

[14:07:34] Hello [14:07:38] hi [14:08:52] After my 1.12 update, I haven't remember that on one wiki edittool are no longer displayed (whereas MediaWiki:Edittools article is not empty). Is there any change about that ? [14:10:10] Xiong, which message is it? [14:10:38] http://arms.x10hosting.com/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Gotaccount&curid=65&action=history [14:11:43] s/remember/notice/ [14:12:22] 03(mod) Please enable autopromotion for flagged revisions on de. wp again - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14153 (10DaB.) [14:12:23] Morning/Afternoon/Evening all, was wondering if anyone can help. Seems such a simple one but can't fathom it. I have a Debian Etch setup running a website, I am trying to installl latest stable V of mediawiki, when i goto the /wiki directory for the first time its prompting me to 'open' or 'save' the file. I have checked and php5 is installed and DirectoryIndex for that domain does have index.php listed. What am I missing? [14:13:41] do other php files work? [14:14:02] Did you get mediawiki yourself, or are you using the buggy and unsupported debian package? [14:14:02] php5 is tinstalled as/for what? [14:14:13] thast the only php thing on there [14:14:14] mod_php? suphp? php-cgi? php-cli? [14:14:19] i d/l from mediawiki.org [14:14:30] Ok... that's one issue down [14:14:38] *Dantman|FS wishes debian would delete that damn package [14:14:55] hehe [14:14:56] <3 debian [14:14:59] What webserver are you running? [14:15:00] did mw get shovelwared? [14:15:02] when you say php5 is installed as/for what - What do you mean [14:15:06] apache 2 [14:15:10] Ya, Debian is nice... But not that crappy MW package [14:15:23] did you "apt-get install php5"? [14:15:25] or that crappy openssl package [14:15:28] yup [14:15:33] imho something like mediawiki isnt best suited for a debian package [14:15:42] Eh? OpenSSL is working for me... [14:15:48] so is my issue fubar? [14:15:51] Well... actually I'm on ubuntu [14:15:55] and such things never seem to get maintained properly. a badly maintained package is worse than no package imho [14:16:15] Ya, honnestly php applications are not good package material [14:16:20] Same goes for phpMyAdmin [14:16:24] Dantman|FS: hes referring to the huge security hole recently [14:16:26] UKPbz___: have you installed libapache2-mod-php5 ? [14:16:34] ^_^ Just update [14:16:37] Dantman|FS: Openssl could work, but your key can be very weak [14:16:42] Buzz_, the Debian package seems to be up-to-date. [14:16:46] funny that ubuntu made a better fix earlier on with the ssh-vulnkey program. although at least it got into debian a couple of days later [14:16:48] But it moves stuff around randomly. [14:16:57] let me check [14:17:02] Also has this weird pgsql patch that seems wrong. [14:17:05] Nope... I had a recent dist upgrade... Ubuntu Hardy has the good version [14:17:13] G_SabinoMullane, did you ever look at that Debian package link I gave you? [14:17:15] It even prompted me to regenerate my keys on update [14:17:29] Dantman|FS, all versions of Ubuntu have the good version *now*. [14:17:32] Hardy didn't have it when it shipped. [14:17:38] Oh heh... [14:17:49] Well, dist upgrade anyways [14:17:51] 03shinjiman * r35084 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/ (4 files): Localisation updates Cantonese, Chinese and Old/Late Time Chinese [14:18:02] I am writing an extension, and I have a question about hooks. If i want a hook to be executed when the registration page is called, where in my extension should it be, and what would the syntax? [14:18:14] Simetrical: i ahev to say im surprised. there are a few things i run which always seem to be lagging behind.. [14:18:14] UKPbz___: you'll also want a few more things, like php5-mysql, php5-curl, php5-cli, php-pear, php5-tidy, and maybe more [14:18:15] would be* [14:18:29] Buzz_, well, are you running stable or unstable? [14:18:34] Stable is like 1.7, I think. :) [14:18:45] ierpe: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:MediaWiki_hooks [14:18:49] Simetrical: well stable, but i backport stuff if its available. [14:18:51] im in [14:18:52] UKPbz___: not sure the package names are exactly like that on deb, i'm looking at ubuntu here. should be fairly close though [14:19:12] Simetrical: new spamassassins take forever to get into debian volatile which is supposed to have the very latest of such things [14:19:13] Bah... php5-tidy isn't neccessary... And php-pear is only needed if you want to use pear [14:19:19] ok lemme check [14:19:24] one sec [14:19:31] the tidy module is _much_ faster on loaded systems, though [14:20:41] just adding whats missing [14:21:00] Dantman|FS: and the same for curl, yes. or php5-cli. [14:21:06] i was giving the "usual" stuff [14:21:10] but it doesnt work, my hook is not called [14:21:18] Well, php5-cli is more essencial [14:21:41] php-pear isn't needed unless you want extra libraries, and there are few wiki that actually install tidy [14:22:19] ok loaded all them and still a prob [14:22:27] What error? [14:22:28] let me put another php up there [14:22:38] Simetrical: another package which is imho badly maintained is awstats. the debian config for it is the wrong way round. ie. to have multiple sites support, it should have it so a base config is included and so you can have a separate small config per site. but they have it in reverse [14:23:04] Simetrical: and i notice stuff like this about many packages.. proftpd still using custom log rotation (not logrotate.d) [14:23:07] hey Fire [14:23:08] Same goes for ruby packages [14:23:08] Re [14:23:44] any way to customize Special:Login? [14:23:52] preferably without hacking the php file [14:25:56] Xiong, you could look for hooks. [14:26:29] i'm not that sophisticated [14:26:32] i'm a hardware guy [14:26:47] what do you mean by customisation ? [14:26:56] specifically. [14:27:08] http://arms.x10hosting.com/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Gotaccount&curid=65&action=history [14:27:27] http://arms.x10hosting.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Userlogin&type=signup [14:27:50] won't parse wikitext, won't display HTML [14:27:53] what gives? [14:28:34] Simetrical: Yes, thanks, it's on my todo list to look at in more detail. I'm not convinced it's a good idea to do it the way they did. [14:29:17] i want one of my extension function to be executed when the signup page is called, and its working because i hacked SpecialUserLogin.php (added a test on the hook i created in myextension.php), but how can i do it without changing the code of SpecialUserLogin.php? [14:29:28] hooks. [14:29:35] but i dont get it [14:29:39] i read the hooks page [14:29:47] and i dont get it [14:29:54] Xiong: not all system messages allow for html. it depends how the strings are used i guess. [14:29:55] i created a hooks in myextension page [14:30:10] and i call it in specialuserlogin [14:30:48] i understand what you are saying [14:30:58] but it means that people who will install this extension will have to go and paste some code in other files, [14:31:08] but i don't have the experience to fill in the blanks [14:31:17] i need more or less explicit instructions [14:31:18] and i know that with hooks you can do it differently, but i dont understand how [14:31:36] "patch this file here with this code" [14:33:04] After my 1.12 update, I haven't notice that on one wiki edittool are no longer displayed (whereas MediaWiki:Edittools article is not empty). Is there any change about that ? [14:33:05] 03btongminh * r35085 10/trunk/phase3/includes/api/ (ApiQueryAllimages.php ApiQueryImageInfo.php): Use ApiQueryImageInfo::getInfo for both ApiQueryAllimages and ApiQueryImageInfo. Should also give some more consistency between the two modules. [14:33:51] is there a hook for the signup page? something like $wgHooks['UserLogin']['signup'] ? i cant find it [14:34:15] 06(LATER) Please enable autopromotion for flagged revisions on de. wp again - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14153 +comment (10JSchulz_4587) [14:34:33] 03btongminh * r35086 10/trunk/phase3/includes/api/ApiQueryImageInfo.php: Forgot one $this => self when making ApiQueryImageInfo::getInfo static. [14:34:35] ierpe: you want $wgHooks['UserLogin][] = 'MyHook'; [14:34:58]
