[02:12:07] A Fedora package, that is [02:12:30] Emufarmers, yes, i did [02:12:53] Well, that's a problem right there in terms of us helping you [02:12:59] heh [02:14:27] given that i'm probably staying with the packaged version, what do the permissions need to be? [02:14:36] !package [02:14:36] --mwbot-- Many Linux distributions provide MediaWiki in a packaged format for that distribution. The MediaWiki development team refers you to your Linux distribution for assistance with installing, configuring or using them.

See also: !download [12:33:58] stupid but how do i change the themes? no admin interface? i have to edit the config file.. ? [12:34:51] jorries82: depends. changing css styles is done by editing wiki pages. picking another skin is a per-user preference. [12:35:08] bigger changes basically mean writing your own skin. that means some php programming [12:35:18] i have a skin installed which i would like to select [12:35:36] so go to your user proferences and select it [12:35:50] preferences where would that be located? [12:35:51] you can also set it as the default for anonymous and new users. [12:36:05] follow the link that says "preferences"? [12:36:10] at the top right of the page [12:36:14] (if you are using monobook) [12:36:21] ohw stupid i have to login first.. i thought it was logged in after the install ;p [12:36:35] jorries82: Login might be buggy because of the session.save_path issue [12:37:01] it worksw, thanks guys! [12:37:15] RoanKattouw yes that error i got but everything worked fine [12:37:46] basically i just want a product manual to be displayed thats all users do not have to edit, them wiki seems a bit overload but its a nice basis you can build upon lateron [12:38:41] i installed the cavendish skin [12:38:57] but what i was afraid for is happening this skin is not fully compatible with the latest version, no wysiwyg editor box for example.. [12:39:13] is there anyone here that use this theme and uploaded it to a blog or internet location ? [12:39:19] so new users can use the updated version instead of the old one [12:39:40] wysiwyg editor has nothing to do with skins [12:39:46] that would be a separate extensions [12:40:15] you will probably also want to set your preferred skin as the defautl. you have to edit the config file to do that [12:40:23] hi datura_ [12:41:49] ohw i see.. i would like indeed set it to default [12:42:05] im logged in as admin now selected the skin, but thats on a user basis.. not sitewide basis then i guess [12:43:19] also language i need dutch, netherlands, but selected nl in the admin pref. dropdown but still english [12:44:07] !wg ContentLanguage [12:44:07] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgContentLanguage [12:44:07] jorries82: $wgLanguageCode in LocalSettings.php [12:44:10] !wg DefaultSkin [12:44:10] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgDefaultSkin [12:44:45] !wg LanguageCode [12:44:45] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgLanguageCode [12:44:46] ah !wg LanguageCode [12:44:51] same difference :) [12:44:57] ok i see it thanks guys [13:18:59] 03(NEW) Please enable transwiki-imports to English Wiktionary from other Wiktionaries. - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18519 enhancement; Normal; Wikimedia: Site requests; (ran.arigur) [13:21:20] 03(mod) Please enable transwiki-imports to English Wiktionary from other Wiktionaries. - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18519 +shell (10p858snake) [13:24:05] 03(mod) No skin used for Opera fullscreen. - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18497 +comment (10happy-melon) [13:45:04] 03ialex * r49643 10/trunk/extensions/Configure/ (CHANGELOG Configure.php Configure.settings-ext.txt): Updated AbuseFilter, FlaggedRevs and OpenID extensions [13:45:50] yay ialex [13:46:01] hello werdna [13:52:12] is there a minimal css skin [13:52:15] for mediawiki? [13:52:36] the default skin that comes along still is a bit complicated to me, perhaps theres a more default css skin i can use to create my own upon [13:53:10] see "myskin" [13:53:32] (it has only common CSS, no skin specific CSS) [13:54:35] ah never mind stupid i already found theres the simple skin sorry for asking to soon [13:57:26] is there a way to find out what links to a section of a page? [13:58:30] no [13:58:39] searching Page Name#Section results also other #Sections [14:01:59] how would i customize the myskin skin [14:02:03] it references to monobook [14:02:09] can i just add my html inside the myskin.php? [14:04:24] jorries82: you can use MediaWiki:Myskin.css rather than editing files [14:05:01] *Danny_B is away: Leave a message after the beep and I'll reply as soon as possible. *BEEP* [14:06:17] ok i see [14:34:23] 03(NEW) Add a Special:UnwatchedRedirects - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18520 enhancement; Normal; MediaWiki: Special pages; (happy-melon) [14:37:51] ok im working on customizing my skin.. i try to import a css file from the /skin/my/main.css file with @import command in the css [14:38:00] but i cannot seem to get it to work even thought the path is correct [14:40:18] 03(mod) Add a Special:UnwatchedRedirects - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18520 +comment (10roan.kattouw) [14:53:20] hi everybody [14:54:02] I need to find more information about the use of languages in Mediawiki [14:54:14] any idea? [15:04:34] kepler: what do you mean by "use of languages"? [15:04:39] argh [15:12:30] 03ialex * r49644 10/trunk/phase3/docs/hooks.txt: Document APIQueryUsersTokens and WikiExporter::dumpStableQuery hooks [15:14:54] very stupid question but after setting everything up and have the skin in my default site layout [15:14:57] how do i add pages? [15:15:08] for example iw ant to create a manual with subpages and table of contents, where to start? [15:15:44] jorries82, create a link to the page on some other page, follow the link. Or type the name of the page in the search box and click the red link you're given. [15:16:02] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Starting_a_new_page [15:25:59] hi! [15:26:12] i need help and i cant' find it anywhere on the web :( [15:27:14] is anyone currently here? [15:27:16] PDF_Format: state the question [15:27:26] well, i want to default all my new pages to protected [15:27:33] but i can't seem to find out how i would do that. [15:27:44] is that what you really want [15:27:55] or do you want to people to register before editing [15:27:58] i want them to default to protected with editing only for sysops [15:28:07] because i want any user to be able to create a discussion page [15:28:10] meaning, they have to have the editing right [15:28:20] anonymous, registered, anybody etc.. [15:28:29] but i don't want anybody to edit the actual pages. [15:28:33] there is different right for editing pages and editing talk pages [15:28:39] !access [15:28:39] --mwbot-- For information on customizing user access, see . For common examples of restricting access using both rights and extensions, see . [15:29:09] you can take the other one away from anon users [15:29:20] Nikerabbit: that's not in the core; [15:30:06] You need http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GroupPermissionsManager or http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Talkright for that [15:32:04] argh [15:32:06] sorry, my internet had a flipout [15:32:17] if you replied after i wrote "31<PDF_Format>30 its createtalk [15:32:17] 31<PDF_Format>30 is there a way so that i can default all new pages to protected? " [15:32:19] then i didnt' get it. [15:33:23] Nikerabbit: but basically, since createtalk is dependant on the edit right, and edit lets you edit any unprotected page.. i want the pages protected. [15:33:30] so anyone can discuss, but not edit. [15:33:54] but going page by page and setting the protection is ... rediculous. [15:33:59] [11:30] You need http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GroupPermissionsManager or http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Talkright for that [15:34:10] Emufarmers: thanks man! [15:34:26] that's perfect!
