[00:06:37] hello I want to store the images directory in a location separate from the $IP. eg $wgUploadDirectory = "/home/wiki.cnvc.org/wiki/images". I am worried about how to specify $wgUploadPath, which appears to require a path relative to $IP, or am I reading this wrong? [00:08:26] not said right... $wgUploadPath is a URL (absolute or relative is acceptable) not a directory path, right? [00:10:34] so do i do something strange like $wgUploadPath="$IP/../../../home/wiki.cnvc.org/wiki/images" ?? [00:12:56] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgUploadPath [00:33:40] Is MediaWiki Version 1.15 higher than 1.5? The documentation I have been reading suggests so, but that doesn't make sense so I want to double check here. [00:37:42] Guest____: yes, as it went from 1.9 to 1.10 [00:38:11] software doesn't always treat versions like decimals despite the appearance [00:38:33] So in order to update to, say, 1.19, all I do is follow the steps for updating post 1.5? [00:39:36] Yes, 1.15 is much newer than 1.5 [00:39:36] The current version is 1.24 [00:39:36] After 1.9 we had 1.10, and after 1.19 we had 1.20 [00:40:24] Okay, thanks RoanKattouw! [00:40:40] Yeah [00:42:36] http://pastebin.com/g9iV9VPg this is giving me a fatal error for the special pqge for edit count and idk why [00:43:08] page* [00:44:31] $uid = $user->getId(); its this idk how to fix that. [00:54:19] Repton: If $username is an invalid user name (like an empty string for instance), $user will be null, and calling $user->getId() will cause an error [00:54:32] You need to do the same as on line 24: $username = is_object( $user ) ? $user->getName() : ''; [00:54:42] So $uid = is_object( $user ) ? $user->getId() : 0; [01:02:03] $uid = is_object( $user ) ? $user->getId() : 0; I did that on line 24 and it's still giving me a fatal error [01:25:33] http://pastebin.com/36QrfMgd what it looks like now btw [01:32:58] a patched version further up in the git revision history checks $user instanceof User, not is_object($user) [01:33:03] I had to fix that myself earlier [01:33:55] https://git.wikimedia.org/commit/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FEditcount/e7cf420d723d42898ceecc5914694e6ae3d7a883 [01:34:17] hit "commitdiff" to see the change [01:35:01] http://doomwiki.org/wiki/Special:Editcount <- seems to work. [01:36:32] Repton: Sorry, I misspoke. Put line 24 back the way it was, and put my thing on line 26 instead [01:36:46] So I just copy and paste the patch? [01:36:59] Oh ok [01:56:41] Ok it works now thank you RoanKattouw [02:27:38] hi, I'm trying to find out how to customize the Page Template for all wiki pages so they all have few extra lines of code on all pages. can that be done ? [02:28:06] EG : I want all pages under the MAIN_NS to have a section to list "SubPages" [02:41:55] MichaelHabib: not really [02:42:24] unless you include a template on each [02:42:33] or use a bot [02:42:46] Betacommand: bot ? [02:42:52] I will look into that [02:43:16] MichaelHabib: a program that automatically edits the page and adds it if missing [02:43:25] the idea is NOT to have to do the same work over & over .. so want something like a sidebar / booter to be shown on all pages. [02:43:38] footer * [02:45:17] MichaelHabib: if you use a bot, the program does the work for you [02:46:10] MichaelHabib: the easiest thing is to just include a template at the bottom of the page that does that [03:05:37] more complex would be writing an extension to fire on SkinAfterContent [03:06:17] or something similar [03:08:11] Quasar`: Betacommand ty, will test these options soon [03:49:31] OK, how in the hell did https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Book+talk&namespace=0 Happen? [03:51:36] Betacommand: there’s a bug about that someplace [03:51:37] let me find [03:52:49] Betacommand: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T87645 [03:56:53] YuviPanda: thanks [03:57:33] NIGGA [04:14:24] !magic [04:14:24] For more information about creating magic words and their inner workings, see .
