[01:11:43] Looking for some pointers on how to do a bulk-update (or even just a bulk search) through the page content on my wiki for a string to find-replate - basically, I have a bunch of URLs that need to change domains.' [01:11:57] searching for the domain in question doesn't actually work - apparently URLs aren't searched [01:12:31] <^demon|away> For urls, you might want to have a look at [[Special:LinkSearch]] which is in core MW. [01:12:47] <^demon|away> Barring that, Extension:ReplaceText may be useful to you. [01:13:02] Hmm, good pointers, thanks! [01:13:07] <^demon|away> you're welcome [01:15:07] huh. that's odd,, special:linksearch isn't matching stuff it should. [01:16:00] I wonder if there's only this one occurence? That seems unlikely. [01:17:57] That's *nuts* - I find a bunch of other https://othersubdomain.domain.com/whatever stuff when i do https://*.domain.com - but none of https://actualthing.domain.com - even though i verified it was there in some page source. That's... weird. [01:18:00] <^demon|away> A better search engine might help you, but it's way more to setup :) [01:18:15] <^demon|away> Extension:CirrusSearch [01:19:03] Yeah, I may look into that. [01:19:07] It just seems really... odd. [01:19:30] I think tonight's maintenance is going to involve me sticking a redirect on that old server for now, heh. [01:21:02] anyone familiar with changing names in the recent changes list and other places to be lowercase with common.css [01:28:42] ^demon|away: ReplaceText worked great for the job - but I've got CirrusSearch bookmarked ;) [05:40:46] everytime i try to install a skin and it doesnt have a file in base skin folder, it doesnt show up or install, even if i set it as default skin in LocalSettings.php [05:43:12] Anyone else have this problem? [05:44:34] Is there anyone here? [10:18:18] Hi I need some help in here [10:18:42] I'm following the gerrit tutorial [10:18:44] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial [10:19:33] but cannot execute some steps of the tutorial because I have to work behind an http proxy which doesn't allow ssh to external servers [10:19:44] what can be the work around [10:20:13] well, http proxy is *only* for http traffic, ssh traffic shouldn't be intercepted by it [10:22:50] <[twisti]> he probably means he ONLY has a http proxy, and no other way to talk to the interwebs [10:24:16] hargup: in that case, maybe you can use https://tools.wmflabs.org/gerrit-patch-uploader/ [10:25:50] vulpix: thanks I'll try it out. [10:26:16] yeah I only have a http proxy most of the ports are blocked [10:26:24] except 8080 [10:26:33] and I guess 443 is also open [10:29:33] It's also possible to push to https. Password is at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/settings/http-password [10:35:45] I though cloning the repo through HTTPS didn't allowed to push changes later, or maybe that changes if you download the repo with your credentials [10:38:51] Vulpix: I don't remember the details. I was on a windows machine behind a corporate firewall. git-review installation was not straight-forward and needed some fiddling with .git/config. IIRC it involved pointing the gerrit remote at the correct repo [10:39:15] But the initial clone was a standard https git clone [10:41:30] that's good to know :) [10:41:55] Vulpix: Now that I think of it, that's probably the point: git-review pushes to gerrit, not origin [11:15:16] hargup: you can abandon your own patchset from gerrit so others don't have to review it (I'm talking about https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/166185/ ) [11:20:38] FoxT, Vulpix: thanks I was able to push through https, sorry for the patch though. I'm used to github based workflow where you changes are not staged for review unless you explictily send a pull request. [12:28:34] offtopic: can anyone recommend a nice irc client for android? [12:29:06] physikerwelt: I'm pretty happy with irccloud's android app [12:29:15] physikerwelt: but it's a cloud based solution [12:30:42] valhallasw`cloud: thank you I'll have a look at that... I was hoping that trillian would include irc on mobile but it takes longer than I expected [13:20:00] Hi, I installed Extension:BlogPage and all of its required extensions, yet, I don't see it in Special:Version [16:01:51] hi! could someone tell me what pages do I have to export from MediaWiki to get Template:Ambox fully working? Up to now I've exported Gadget-site.css and Gadget-site.js, but it doesn't seem to be enough, though [16:03:17] ubsrv: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Export&action=submit, then select 'Include templates' [16:03:37] I would be surprised if it needs js/css [16:04:54] I've done that, but it seems to return a Lua error (state 127 internal error), it seems to be thrown when the exportation wasn't full and that template depends on others etc. [16:06:19] Strange. Modules are also exported, as far as I can see [16:06:23] but maybe module dependencies not? [16:07:03] as per this, it seems not: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/678626/where-can-i-get-templates-for-mediawiki [16:07:21] couldn't find any site where it's clearly explained, neither [16:07:56] where /what/ is clearly explained? [16:08:04] the process is 'use special:export' [16:08:50] I'll check whether I missed something, but that's what I've tried so far now (even including templates in the Special:Export page) [16:10:02] I'm not sure how to debug scribunto errors, though :/ [16:10:49] seems to be a ['errorFile'] config option, but it spits nothing in my case :\ [16:12:28] I've even tried installing the distribution package for lua, and I get the same error, so I guess I'm having this issue: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Scribunto#Script_error [16:29:18] valhallasw`cloud: wikibugs at -dev is not reporting bug changes [16:29:48] Glaisher: probably due to the grid outage at tools [16:29:53] Glaisher: should be working soon(TM) [16:42:00] Glaisher: working again [16:42:10] cool [16:42:14] :) [16:42:40] (and I *think* it won't report every e-mail that was sent since 12 hours ago...) [16:43:35] I installed BlogPage, yet, I don't see it on Special:Version but I installed Wikilog and that made the Blog Mainspace and everything, what happened? [17:23:24] heello does anyone every check the AbuseFilter talk page, seems like there hasn't been replies there with help and [17:23:48] I posted a post and need help, I also need some help with AWB find and replace advanced settings [17:24:17] I doubt it. [17:42:35] could anyone perhaps tr to help me with AWB find and replace [17:42:50] I have been looking for days very hard to find help [17:42:57] and I have not been able to find any [20:05:13] Is there by any chance a way to generate a preview for a comment extension? Maybe javascript? Baiscs like formatting and links would be enough already. [20:08:52] Subfader: "comment extension"? [20:09:06] Subfader: oh, you just want to parse some wikitext to HTML? there's an API for that [20:09:25] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Parsing_wikitext#parse [20:09:57] like Extension:ArticleComments. It ads a textarea to leave a comment but only has a submit button. I'd like to add a preview function. [20:10:09] checking that. thanks! [20:50:53] Alright, that was easy! :) [20:51:00] Cheers! [21:16:21] Are there security risks when I display parsed text from a comment form below an article? I guess it's secure when it passes the parser. [21:16:52] HTML is displayed like article preview tho [21:55:24] Its fine [21:55:40] Subfader: Assuming of course that you have things like $wgRawHtml disabled [22:22:00] It's just me or wikimedia's git isn't working? [22:22:08] Throwing 504 errors for me :( [22:23:37] are you using git.wikimedia or gerrit.wikimedia? [22:24:35] legoktm, git.wikimedia [22:24:55] yeah, that's slow and will timeout on you. I'd recommend either using gerrit if possible, or the github mirrors [22:32:41] Polsaker: yeah, it's down since earlier today, and will probably stay that way until tuesday :/ [22:32:49] (at least earlier today) [22:32:57] ugh :\ [23:05:12] I keep having issues trying to create an account on mediawiki [23:05:49] I keep getting an "There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking." error. Could someone pls point me in the right direction to resolve this? [23:07:35] !session [23:07:35] make sure session.save_path is set correctly in your php.ini. Verify that it exists, is readable and writable to PHP, and check that session data is actually being written there. On a server farm, make sure it's a shared directory, accessible from all servers. [23:08:50] meht: is this on mediawiki.org? [23:09:49] yes [23:14:46] Reedy: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71862 ? [23:15:07] Mebbe [23:15:50] > MediaWiki uses cookies to log in users. You have cookies disabled. Please enable them and try again. [23:16:01] > There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Go back to the previous page, reload that page and then try again. [23:16:06] yeah, I can reproduce [23:16:15] This is going to be fun [23:17:28] I have reloaded the create account page several times, added mediawiki to my cookie inclusion list, but to no avail [23:17:43] It's lvery likely servers side [23:18:00] ah
