[00:51:15] Is it required to declare jQuery as a dependency in extensions anymore? Getting this now trying to update extension code: "Error: Unknown dependency: jquery" [00:52:23] Trela: it's required *not* to declare it as dependency. [00:52:31] (it was never required to declare it.) [00:52:54] Odd. We/I had to in the past to force jQuery to load in many cases. [00:57:23] Yep, removing a tens of dependency declarations fixed it. So the long standing bug is fixed! Thanks. :D [01:08:04] Hey I have an issue will declaring an element in css for the mobile minivera skin. It's the contents box. The element that needs to be changed is .client-js .toc-mobile{ background-color: #353332; } but apparently something else is trumping this. You can view an example on https://wiki.gamepaduniverse.com/w/index.php?title=PadPedia&mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile [01:13:41] fixed it [01:13:43] disregard [07:27:02] hi [07:27:17] hi [07:27:20] index.php?title=Special:ConfirmEmail/ [07:27:23] No such special page [07:27:41] I don't understand how to debug this...can anyone explain me? [07:28:28] its a 1.26 installation with GoogleLogin and VisualEditor (which is broken too btw) [07:28:49] I login with google, thats all good and then an email is sent and the result is an error page [08:31:26] p1rate: could you please file a task in phabricator? ( https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/ ). That might give devs a better chance to follow up [09:50:53] Is there a connection between wikinews and wikipedia? [09:58:59] jonbhaug, sure, they use the same wiki software. [09:59:29] Yes I know that, but why have they not merged them together ? [10:01:05] jonbhaug, why didn't google and microsoft merge their search engines?... [10:01:53] That to different companies. But if I have a newsarticle in regard to syria, it would be more logical to have it associated to Syria in wikipedia [10:03:00] not really. wikipedia is not a news systems but instead a knowledge database. wikinews is not a knowledge database but instead a news page. [10:03:33] and this discssion has absolutely nothing to do with mediawiki. so I guess you are a troll. [10:05:34] Asking a question doesnt make me a troll. [11:18:30] jonbhaug: the question is more appropriate for #wikimedia [11:27:09] ori, will look into it [11:27:21] the syntaxhighlight_geshi is also broken [11:27:47] downloaded the stable version of mediawiki, plugin is bundled and enabled but doesnt work [11:27:56] had to download it manually by git to make it work [11:29:19] p1rate: downloaded the stable how? [11:29:41] last week [11:29:56] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download [11:30:05] the big link "Download MediaWiki 1.26.0" [11:38:13] -rw-r--r-- chad/staff 4632 2015-11-25 20:39 mediawiki-1.26.0/vendor/kzykhys/pygments/src/KzykHys/Pygments/Pygments.php [11:38:46] -rwxr-xr-x chad/staff 673141 2015-11-25 20:43 mediawiki-1.26.0/extensions/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi/pygments/pygmentize [11:38:58] Are the permissions correct? [11:39:12] I was on windows so no permission issues [11:39:16] also, no errors what so ever [11:39:19] just no highlighting [11:39:56] renamed the extension folder, used git to download latest release, reload and it was working [11:40:58] p1rate: is it this https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T120068 ? [11:41:33] i dont think so, I did not get any error...it just was not showing any styles [11:53:25] maybe the error reporting improved in master :) [12:32:54] I work in a research organinsation and I love the mediawiki with all its sisterprojects. I am thinking of doing the same for our organization. We have a windows server 2009. How easy is it to have all the same server? [12:57:46] Is it easy to install all the mediawiki sister project on standalon server for testing? [13:11:22] joninoslo: you mean a fork of them? [13:11:41] yes it's possible if the server has enough of storage [13:12:46] petan: but that means a lot of work when updating? Is it not better just to have one standard template mediawiki, but a lots of them? [13:13:04] that's how it's done [13:13:09] it's called farm [13:13:35] so i will have a farm of mediawikis on the same server? [13:13:38] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family [13:13:47] it seems to be called family nowadays [13:15:11] but basically all the sisterprojects is the same mediawiki, but different layouts? [13:15:22] You can configure it how you want [13:15:28] Are you wanting a full copy of all the wikis? [13:16:48] i want them to be empty at the begginng so that my community can add in [13:17:49] so you want to create a new wiki farm [13:18:51] in simple words yes you only have 1 mw installation (files) and each wiki has its own DB, you can update all the wikis of the farm together [13:19:34] thanks: i will try to use your instruction and see how it ends :-) Thanks! [13:39:47] hi guys [13:40:19] can i use parser.php separately? [13:40:39] as a class (mw parser) in my php script [13:56:31] the code is GPL, so you can use it within those terms [13:57:29] er, the code is licensed under the GPL [14:16:19] aolko: You can, but it probably won't work standalone... It'll ahve quite a few dependancies... [14:16:31] Plus extension customisations and additions [14:16:51] okay, any alternatives? [14:25:46] Depends what you're trying to do [14:26:03] Generally, using the API to do parses would be the recommended way [18:26:26] Hello, help:) whats better? Save mediawiki scripts in project or use mw.loader.load? [19:34:36] hi again, if i load a script with mw.loader from another project and this script use another script, will the script work? [20:08:42] anybody here?:) [20:09:28] !ask [20:09:29] Please feel free to ask your question: if anybody who knows the answer is around, they will surely reply. Don't ask for help or for attention before actually asking your question, that's just a waste of time – both yours and everybody else's. :) [20:24:20] @mutante, hi again, if i load a script with mw.loader from another project and this script use another script, will the script work? [20:25:14] have you tried doing it? [20:26:12] no :) [20:36:06] @MatmaRex ?:) [20:37:10] Iniquity: i don't know. it depends on the script. that's why you should try it. [20:37:23] it would've been quicker than asking, too. :) [20:38:26] i think if i will try [20:39:00] i will not see any changes fast [21:10:38] Just upgraded to 1.26 and debugtoolbar no longer appears.

[21:39:06] boot13: works for me [21:39:29] weird [21:39:57] boot13: maybe there's a JavaScript error preventing it to show? [21:41:59] not that I can see [21:44:29] boot13: Do you have file cache or $wgUseSquid enabled? Did you check your javascript console (ctrl+shift+j). Do other javascript things on the page work (e.g. Does the watch this page star work on the page, or does it go to a different page) [21:45:38] bawolff: I saw the docs about $wgUseFileCache and $wgUseSquid and made sure they're not enabled. [21:47:01] Vulpix and bawolff: Javascript console shows an error. I'll get into that. Thanks! [22:00:15] RFC meeting starting now in #wikimedia-office regarding "Use

for media" [22:50:51] *Dies inside.* Having to move SMW and everything related to it to a quarantine folder outside Mediawiki to be able to use composer is fairly annoying. [22:53:13] Depending on your PoV... SMW is fairly annoying generally [22:53:44] lol [22:54:08] We have been working to get rid of using it on our wikis. [22:55:08] What's the issue? [22:56:45] It is slow, causes ridiculous performance issues, frequently gets stuck in template cache breaking feedback loops, breaks composer, breaks... Lots of things. [23:05:34] I was meaning with Composer specifically [23:05:43] Why is it being in the tree breaking it? [23:07:17] Not entirely sure. I want to assume something outdated with the package, but I am still digging into it trying to figure it out. The errors about installable packages all just come back with "satisfiable", yet fails. [23:09:05] Have you tried filing an issue with them? [23:09:25] I plan to once I figure it it is not my issue. [23:17:19] is it possible to link to a section in the TOC without those words appearing in that section? [23:19:42] zeroair_w: Section linking [23:19:54] zeroair_w: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Section#Section_linking [23:20:27] I read that section linking section. I am building the TOC by using "==" on either side of the section headings [23:20:36] so I'm not sure how to apply that html [23:23:18] zeroair_w: you would first use the "==" and save it, then look at the generated HTML [23:23:47] and then use [[#section name|displayed text]] to link to that [23:23:52] using the section name [23:23:54] afaik [23:24:16] but i also just found that page.. so i dont know better [23:26:01] the point is that I don't want the text that is inside the "==" to show [23:26:27] And I can't use [[#section name|displayed text]] since that'd require me to have the section named. [23:32:09] here's a key line which I have yet to figure out [23:32:09] To create an anchor target without a section heading, you can use the {{anchor}} template or a span: . [23:49:42] better yet, how do I get something within a table into the TOC?
