[00:33:47] hi [00:34:06] hello [00:34:55] I have a question about sidebar and tables. I added tabled on the main page in my wiki and it made sidebar narrower: http://inran.ru. How can I fix it? [00:35:12] *tables [00:36:05] !tidy | Kajra [00:36:05] Kajra: HTML Tidy is an external application that cleans up HTML for XHTML compliance (such as bad user input like

). Prior to the new preprocessor in 1.12 it was also needed for distributed, transcluded, or conditional HTML, or mixed HTML and wikitables, but newer versions allow it without Tidy. See [00:36:20] Kajra: That error comes from having invalid html [00:36:54] Thank you! [00:37:05] There's probably an issue with your table (ie an unclosed html tag somewhere), which you could try to locate and fix. Tidy is an automatic solution that fixes any errors your user makes for you [00:37:54] I checked the code several times, it is pretty simple, but nothing jumps at me as being incorrect... I will try again :) Thank you! [01:02:20] Tidy is both great and terrible. [02:09:11] Can somebody, please, please help me with writing data to SQL tables? I've been on it for hours and I'm STUMPED. [02:10:42] I've tried vigorously for weeks to add one attrubute to the user table when a user signs up. Despite my efforts, I just can't seem to make that happen. [02:13:19] I've been working with the extension "customerUserCreateForm". Despite my numerous efforts, I cannot seem to accomplish my goal. There's an "explanation" here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:CustomUserCreateForm#How_to_add_a_custom_field -- Yet it makes absolutely no sense. Can somebody please give a bit of their time to helping get this done? I simply cannot take this any longer. [02:14:35] Just reading whatever that user was trying to say there gives me a headache - Not only is it poorly written and explained, but it also presents numerous errors and fails to explain anything past the PHP posted. [03:12:03] Elvana: are you talking about ALTER TABLE? [03:12:30] INSERT INTO? [08:16:32] Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to set up a personal MediaWiki wiki simply running on a Mac computer? I've found numerous tutorials online, but none recent enough or simple enough to understand. [09:05:01] hey, is anyone here? [13:26:16] hi. How can I set password for all user at once to same value? [13:26:37] changePassword script somehow? [13:27:27] I tried in sql, but it is hard as the value to store I need to read in a subquery and i cannot figure out the syntax [13:32:53] hi [13:33:03] whats this in special:search Eroze : Query error [15:42:05] I think Lucene is slowly dying. [16:03:02] It still works! [16:35:52] * Vulpix uses 5.25'' disks as drink coaster, and works! [16:37:27] The 3.5" work better. As do AOL CDs. [16:37:56] :) [17:56:52] Hello. [18:10:38] hi [18:11:00] Amgine, have you tested that AOL cd lately though!? http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/14/05/14/1459235/your-old-cd-collection-is-dying [18:11:42] CD* (seedy*) [18:12:45] Oh no. What If I suddenly need dial up for a simple $20 a month? [18:14:35] ikr! (Though I am now concerned about my wall of music CDs... I have to start the much-put-off process of ripping everything to FLAC, soon. ~700 CDs shouldn't take too long, right?!) [18:15:09] interesting. So the old tapes of my parents still play, but the new CDs won't be playable anymore in a few years... [18:16:42] We should start an archiving project to preserve this cultural heritage [18:16:44] Do the 45 RPM records still play? [18:17:52] bawolff: someone told me that's what emule/bittorrent is for :P [18:18:06] "backup copies", say [18:18:10] The commons bay... [18:18:53] quiddity: Does this apply to DVDs too? [18:19:08] Not sure. [18:19:56] DVD came later, so at least they will take a while more to die [18:35:08] Amgine: What a big disk you have. [19:09:08] ummm, this time will skip lua and do it via normal parser functions [19:17:09] Juandev, what? [19:19:17] Krenair: nothink, lama thinks loud [21:33:01] which setup would be the best to have a wiki farm sharing everything except images? [21:33:07] two or more wikis [22:20:30] !wikifarm [22:20:30] To run multiple wikis, you can simply install MediaWiki in different folders, with different databases or in one with database prefixes. You can also have multiple wikis using a single installation: If you run a farm or want to, join the mailing list: [22:20:50] biberao: ^ [22:21:13] which one would you advise? [22:21:40] Minimize duplication. [22:22:00] Try to put everything in one wiki. [22:22:03] That's simplest. [22:22:43] but i need to have 2 wikis sharing everything except images [22:22:53] Weird. [22:23:32] why? [22:23:47] What's the purpose? [22:24:27] i was asked to :D [22:25:54] |: [22:29:41] ideas Gloria ? [22:30:01] I'm not sure what you're trying to do or why. [22:30:08] So it's difficult to offer advice. [22:30:27] You want to have two identical wikis except for their images? [22:30:32] That doesn't really make sense. [22:31:11] Gloria: how so? [22:31:31] Because I can't see a reason why you'd want to do that. [22:31:44] And I imagine others feel similarly. [22:32:02] the person wants to have 2 directories running sharing wikis [22:32:04] Consequently, the software is designed in such a way that makes little consideration of the requirements needed to do this. [22:32:26] Well, perhaps the person should join IRC and explain what he or she is trying to do. [22:32:34] The link above can explain wikifarms. [22:32:41] But, in general, you want to minimize duplication. [22:32:44] In every sense. [22:33:05] Whether that's wiki page content duplication, MediaWiki code file duplication, etc. [22:33:19] like [22:33:24] i could link the directories [22:33:33] use the same files [22:33:45] but have a different wiki1/ and wiki2/ address [22:34:00] Probably. [22:34:31] You don't really need to link the directories, though that would probably work. [22:36:23] then what would you advise [22:39:08] Gloria: -> http://sharkysoft.com/wiki/how_to_configure_multiple_MediaWiki_instances_on_a_single_host [22:40:59] biberao: why would you want to do that? [22:41:12] i was asked to do that [22:41:55] That doesn't really answer the question. [22:42:12] What are you trying to accomplish? [22:42:38] i need to have wiki1 and wiki2 sharing all but images [22:48:07] understand? [22:56:27] Hello. [22:57:53] Hi. [22:57:55] I'm trying to install mediawiki on my test server, and I din't know how to choose my custom license https://archive.org/details/Licence-Cogito-Arcanum-1.1 instead of the Creative-Commons proposed by the installation wizar [22:59:28] monpauvrelieu: just pick a license in the wizard, and you can customize it after the installation finishes [22:59:54] ok, I will try it. thank you. :) [23:01:03] monpauvrelieu: see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgRightsUrl and other related options on that page for fully customizing it
