[00:36:13] <cypherpnk>	 Hello
[00:36:26] <cypherpnk>	 I cannot get Lua to work to save my life
[00:36:51] <cypherpnk>	 My goal is to be able to display a template: refimprove banner at teh top of a page
[00:37:07] <cypherpnk>	 can anyone point me towards a solution?
[00:37:37] <cypherpnk>	 http://wiki.marylandshallissue.org/index.php?title=Special:Version
[00:37:54] <cypherpnk>	 http://wiki.marylandshallissue.org/index.php?title=Maryland_Handgun_Permit
[00:38:23] <cypherpnk>	 Sigh
[00:46:35] <ori>	 cypherpnk: what am i suposed to notice about those pages?
[00:46:41] <ori>	 i see that scribunto is indeed set up from the first
[00:47:10] <ori>	 i see the refimprove banner
[00:47:20] <cypherpnk>	 Any idea why I cant get a frame around the template: refimprove at the top of the page?
[00:47:26] <cypherpnk>	 Is it becuase Lua isnt working?
[00:47:38] <cypherpnk>	 Or am I missing somethign else?
[00:47:45] <ori>	 i don't see a frame
[00:47:58] <cypherpnk>	 right
[00:48:02] <cypherpnk>	 I'd like a frame
[00:48:27] <cypherpnk>	 The banner at teh top of this page should have a frame: http://wiki.marylandshallissue.org/index.php?title=Maryland_Handgun_Permit
[00:49:04] <ori>	 you just need to modify the template to include one
[00:49:08] <ori>	 lua is working properly
[00:50:40] <cypherpnk>	 Can you point me to a url with some docuemntation?
[00:51:02] <cypherpnk>	 I exported all of Wikipedia's template infrastructure - so I thought he fram would be automagic?
[00:51:51] <cypherpnk>	 Im trying to get the banner to look like this...
[00:51:51] <cypherpnk>	 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template%3ARefimprove
[00:53:00] <ori>	 cypherpnk: the templates / modules produce HTML elements with predictable class names, and English Wikipedia styles those with CSS in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css
[00:53:13] <ori>	 if you copy the content of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css to MediaWiki:Common.css on your wiki it should look the same
[00:53:23] <cypherpnk>	 Awsome!
[00:53:29] <cypherpnk>	 Im off to give that a try
[00:53:41] <cypherpnk>	 Thank you very much for the pointer
[00:53:47] <ori>	 no problem, good luck.
[00:54:11] <ori>	 in general, people do monitor this channel, but they're not necessarily staring at it at all times, so if you ask a question and no one seems to respond, wait a while and don't despair :)
[00:56:36] <cypherpnk>	 Where is MediaWiki:Common.css?
[00:57:07] <ori>	 cypherpnk: http://wiki.marylandshallissue.org/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css
[00:58:23] * cypherpnk does the happy dance
[00:59:02] <ori>	 :)
[00:59:43] <cypherpnk>	 ori, can you field one more?
[00:59:46] <cypherpnk>	 http://wiki.marylandshallissue.org/index.php?title=Template:Refimprove
[00:59:57] <cypherpnk>	 How do I get rid of the "50px"
[01:00:04] <cypherpnk>	 I cant find the source anywhere
[01:00:14] <cypherpnk>	 I think its nestled tempaltes
[01:02:47] <ori>	 cypherpnk: you can either upload https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Test_Template_Info-Icon_-_Version_(2).svg to your wiki
[01:02:58] <ori>	 or *I think* enabling instantcommons should do it too
[01:03:17] <ori>	 try adding $wgUseInstantCommons = true;  to your localsettings.php
[01:05:13] <cypherpnk>	 Done!
[01:05:22] <cypherpnk>	 Thanks again ori!
[01:05:58] <JackF_>	 Hello. Does somebody know what codes should I put to be able to use "Format" and "Insert" too? http://s9.postimg.org/xqhpytptr/missing.png
[01:06:04] <cypherpnk>	 Last question - can you point me to the best url to help me secure my wiki?
[01:06:15] <cypherpnk>	 or the best reference doc?
[01:07:07] <ori>	 cypherpnk: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Security
[01:07:55] <cypherpnk>	 OK, thanks a whole lot. Have a good evening everyone. Im off to learn about mediawiki security
[01:26:31] <JackF_>	 Does somebody know what codes should I put to be able to use "Format" and "Insert" too? http://s9.postimg.org/xqhpytptr/missing.png

[14:07:37] <wm-bot>	 Niharika: Last time I saw polybuildr they were quitting the network with reason: no reason was given N/A at 8/19/2015 6:47:30 PM (1d19h20m6s ago)
[14:07:38] <Niharika>	 Bah. 
[14:07:47] <Niharika>	 Okay, thanks wm-bot.
[14:07:48] <wm-bot>	 Hey Niharika, you are welcome!
[15:36:46] <sneezel>	 How to change "Xinput" section from header 1 to header 2 on page:https://wiki.gamepaduniverse.com/wiki/Region
[15:39:44] <sneezel>	 It pulls that over from List Of Regions By Technology#Xinput on for that page
[15:39:59] <marktraceur>	 Hi sneezel
[15:40:16] <sneezel>	 hello kind sir!
[15:41:11] <marktraceur>	 sneezel: You'd need to change the template
[15:42:39] <marktraceur>	 sneezel: You *might* be able to do something clever like changing the header level depending on a template parameter
[15:42:44] <marktraceur>	 But I doubt that's worthwhile
[15:42:53] <marktraceur>	 Better to just fix the template so it does what you need
[15:43:15] <sneezel>	 marktraceur: The issue I am running into is that it a section on another page. So since the Xinput header on that page is level 1 which is right for that page, but I need it be to be 2 on the Region page
[15:43:55] <marktraceur>	 OK, so do something clever with template params
[15:44:07] <marktraceur>	 I want to assume that it's possible, let me do some sandboxing
[15:44:41] <sneezel>	 I am guessing then that I could construct a parameter that would state that if its the current page be header level 1 otherwise if not use a different header level?
[15:46:28] <sneezel>	 Mark, I am also a little bit confused if certain template methodologies have been deprecated aka using TemplateDate extension versus saying copying the See also template and working off that code structure
[15:47:29] <QuasAtWork>	 trying to follow various examples on adding custom buttons to the classic editor toolbar...
[15:47:35] <QuasAtWork>	 and I'm getting this in the console:
[15:47:36] <QuasAtWork>	 Error: Unknown dependency: mediawiki.toolbar
[15:48:00] <marktraceur>	 sneezel: I did this silly bullshit and it worked: {{#switch:{{{1}}}|1 = =|2 = ==|3 = ===|4 = ====}}Test{{#switch:{{{1}}}|1 = =|2 = ==|3 = ===|4 = ====|=}}
[15:48:26] <marktraceur>	 sneezel: I don't think we've ever deprecated...anything. In wikitext. Ever.
[15:48:35] <marktraceur>	 Maybe extensions, but that's pretty rare too
[15:49:24] <sneezel>	 well is there a preferred way to make templates
[15:49:54] <QuasAtWork>	 wikipedia has this -> http://pastie.org/10366595 <- in their Common.js/edit.js
[15:50:07] <QuasAtWork>	 but it throws an error on line 2 for me.
[15:50:20] <sneezel>	 it seems like the templateData extension produces a different kind of code structure than what I copyed from mediawiki Template:See also for instance
[15:53:11] <QuasAtWork>	 is mediawiki.toolbar new to 1.25 ?
[15:53:39] <James_F>	 marktraceur: We removed the old way of invoking templates introduced in MW 1.2 in MW 1.3
[15:53:59] <James_F>	 marktraceur: But other than that (and the UseMod -> MediaWiki switchover) I think that's it.
[15:54:14] <sneezel>	 mark i don't get where i am suppose to insert this code in?
[15:54:42] <sneezel>	 its not really a template in the sense that page does not start with "Template:"
[15:54:50] <sneezel>	 it's just a normal page
[15:55:09] <QuasAtWork>	 yes it is, and cool it works now, so, never mind
[15:55:22] <sneezel>	 Mark you live in the Twin Cities???
[16:34:24] <Nemo_bis>	 marktraceur: not true, some things were deprecated in 2008 :) https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Migration_to_the_new_preprocessor
[17:10:47] <polybuildr>	 Need a little help with wikitext for https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SmiteSpam
[17:10:53] <polybuildr>	 I've added two screenshots to the page
[17:10:59] <polybuildr>	 but they float to the right and look out of place
[17:11:09] <polybuildr>	 I have no idea how to fix them, suggestions please?
[19:06:45] <adisha_>	 I am trying to install on cloud but still showing some errors.I have a digital ocean droplet on which I tried to install using vagrant.

[20:06:20] <cordovafan8>	 Hello. I am trying to move my mediawiki install from mysql to postgresql. What I did so far was take an xml dump, then remove the wiki install, reinstall using postgres and import the xml dump. 
[20:06:36] <cordovafan8>	 Everything looks fine now, but when I check the database that I setup for the wiki, it appears empty?
[20:07:57] <cordovafan8>	 For instance, the main page and other pages appear populated when I open them from the web, but when I use psql to look at the new postgres database, it doesn't even have tables
[20:09:03] <cordovafan8>	 php importDump.php --conf ../LocalSettings.php /path_to/dumpfile.xml wikidb
[20:09:10] <cordovafan8>	 this is what I used to import
[20:09:51] <cordovafan8>	 does the xml data not get put in the database, or did I inadvertently add this somewhere else?
[20:14:08] <Vulpix>	 I guess the database was created elsewhere
[20:14:26] <Vulpix>	 are you sure you selected postgres as the database engine?
[20:14:52] <Vulpix>	 see $wgDBtype
[20:20:17] <cordovafan8>	 Vulpix: no the database was not created elsewhere, and "postgres" is the value in that var in LocalSettings
[20:20:20] <cordovafan8>	 it is very strange
[20:20:29] <cordovafan8>	 everything appears fine, unless I look at the db
[20:21:15] <Vulpix>	 well, LocalSettings.php contains the database connection settings, see if it's pointing to the right server (localhost instead of a server on another host, etc)
[20:24:10] <cordovafan8>	 it's pointing to localhost
[20:24:18] <cordovafan8>	 which is the right host
[20:26:18] <marktraceur>	 cordovafan8: What psql command are you running to check the database?
[20:26:22] <cordovafan8>	 Vulpix: do you know what the argument (wikidb) means in the importDump.php ?
[20:26:32] <marktraceur>	 That's the database name.
[20:26:39] <cordovafan8>	 marktraceur: psql -U wiki_user -d wiki_db; \dt
[20:26:48] <marktraceur>	 So maybe it's the wrong database
[20:26:59] <cordovafan8>	 marktraceur: it doesn't seem to have any effect (the argument)
[20:27:09] <marktraceur>	 What database name did you use in the setup? (clearly wikidb and not wiki_db because it's actually working)
[20:27:10] <cordovafan8>	 if I provide the correct or incorrect database, the result is the same
[20:27:23] <cordovafan8>	 I did not use wikidb in the install process
[20:27:24] <marktraceur>	 Well, the import is already complete
[20:27:36] <marktraceur>	 OK...hm
[20:27:36] <cordovafan8>	 that database doesn't even exist
[20:27:41] <cordovafan8>	 which is super strange
[20:27:46] <cordovafan8>	 I have a mysql wikidb
[20:27:48] <cordovafan8>	 but...
[20:27:50] <marktraceur>	 cordovafan8: Try going to Special:Version and make sure it's using postgres
[20:28:47] <cordovafan8>	 marktraceur: postgres is listed in installed software
[20:29:00] <marktraceur>	 OK fair enough, definitely postgres
[20:29:37] <marktraceur>	 cordovafan8: OK, can you pastebin the database session where you query for, but don't find, data in your wiki_db database?
[20:29:50] <cordovafan8>	 uh, sure? there's not much to see
[20:30:08] <marktraceur>	 I would imagine not, but it's good to have all the information
[20:30:14] <marktraceur>	 And I haven't been struck with genius yet
[20:32:43] <cordovafan8>	 marktraceur: http://pastebin.com/GGBjjMPU
[20:32:53] <cordovafan8>	 not sure if that's what you want?
[20:36:48] <Vulpix>	 cordovafan8: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDBmwschema ?
[20:37:51] <cordovafan8>	 Vulpix: I didn't change the schema from the installer, it should be 'mediawiki'
[20:38:47] <cordovafan8>	 although I did create a new user and db
[20:40:05] <Vulpix>	 be sure you're using the same user to connect from MediaWiki and command line. If not, maybe it doesn't display tables because the user doesn't have permission to see them
[20:40:41] <cordovafan8>	 Vulpix: nice, I guess \dt was not selecting from that schema since it's not 'public'. My bad!
[20:40:56] <cordovafan8>	 I see the tables now at least
[20:43:36] <cordovafan8>	 going to redo the whole process just in case
[20:56:19] <cordovafan8>	 How might I change the main page of my wiki? The instructions state to (as admin) go to Mediawiki:Mainpage and change some setting, but this doesn't appear for me? I can't find the admin settings page either
[20:57:56] <Vulpix>	 You need to edit the page called "Mediawiki:Mainpage"
[20:58:46] <cordovafan8>	 edit it how? All it contains is the string 'Main Page'
[20:58:47] <Vulpix>	 there's no admin settings page on MediaWiki, you can fond some Special Pages that are only enabled for admins, but not a centralized page with all settings
[20:59:15] <Vulpix>	 it contains the name of the page that will act as the "main page" of the wiki
[20:59:19] <Skizzerz>	 cordovafan8: click on the edit tab while logged into an admin account
[20:59:24] <Skizzerz>	 change it to something else, hit save
[20:59:41] <cordovafan8>	 Skizzerz: I'm an admin, all I get is the standard edit box
[20:59:53] <Skizzerz>	 yes, change the text in the edit box to something else
[20:59:54] <Skizzerz>	 then hit save
[21:00:04] <Skizzerz>	 whatever you change it to will be the new main page of the wiki
[21:00:45] <Skizzerz>	 so if you change it to My Wiki, then the My Wiki page is the main page. If you change it to Blah, then Blah is the main page, etc.
[21:00:58] <cordovafan8>	 there we go, got it
[21:01:00] <cordovafan8>	 thanks guys
[21:01:03] <cordovafan8>	 gotta run to catch the bus
