[00:23:23] ty for the help, i will be back tomorrow [00:47:58] when i create a new link, the link still appears as 'page does not exist' even though the page exists [00:48:13] per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Current_issues/New_links_not_acknowledging_that_page_exists, i have to setup a cron job [00:48:36] does that mean that links will become non-red depending on the frequency at which cronjob is set up ? [00:48:50] manually running runJobs.php does work [00:49:20] but setting wgJobRunRate to 1 explicitly (even though this is default) seems to have no effect [00:50:21] shozig: If manually running runJobs.php does not work, then a cron job probably won't either [00:50:37] bawolff: running manually does work [00:50:56] Its possible other things can cause this issue, but job queue is most common [00:51:15] just wondering if this is how all mediawiki's are setup :-) i.e links become non-red only after the cron job is run [00:51:36] so if i set it up for every 10 minutes, then user has to wait upto 10 minutes [00:51:45] bawolff: what could the other issues be ? [00:52:18] You can also try $wgRunJobsAsync = false; but if manually running runJobs.php doesn't do anything, that probably won't either [00:53:56] Well if you have weird caching setup maybe [00:54:30] I'm not really sure [00:54:57] It would definitely be really weird for something other than job queue to cause this [04:15:19] I've started an open web nonprofit that makes websites for free for other nonprofits. I figured this could be a good place to share it, check it out if you have a sec. changeforge.org [04:25:24] looks great [04:25:29] Thanks! [04:25:40] there's a couple things though that I have questions about: [04:25:44] Sure [04:26:43] does it offer web templates, starting from scratch, running on a certain software (e.g MediaWiki, WordPress fork, etc) [04:27:13] We have our own in house CMS that generates static files and uploads them to Github pages! :D [04:27:56] Ah okay, you should specify that somewhere in the page [04:28:39] Can't I'm afraid! The kind of people who need websites made are super non-technical. To throw phrases like that at them scares them off unfortunatly :( [04:29:00] Hmm, true [04:29:25] So, are you running this organization with your own money and based off donations? [04:29:39] I think we currently have a good balance of simple onboarding and information. More information is provided as needed as they work their way through the application [04:30:12] Ah, I see. For me, I don't really like surprises [04:30:30] We host the sites on Github pages so there aren't many expenses. What's left we ask the organizations to pay themselves. Usually it's not more than $50-100 for them [04:30:51] When I find out something off-putting in the middle of the process for something like that it would throw me off, so I rather have all the given information at once [04:31:03] It's at the front of the application [04:31:06] FIrst page [04:31:50] Hmm, are you hosting this site on a repo at GitHub? [04:32:12] (I'm also a fan of FOSS projects heheh) [04:33:06] or is it just all the organisations that request for a site get their own repo? [04:33:13] Yes our site and every website we make is on Github in a organization. The code is in the public domain! [04:33:32] They are all in the changeforge.org repo [04:33:53] https://github.com/changeforge this one? [04:34:37] That's it! [04:35:03] Awesome, I just don't happen to see changeforge.org's own repo [04:35:13] Did you make it a private repo? [04:35:22] Oh I misspoke that one is under my own account. [04:35:51] It is private atm bc my code is an embarrassing mess lol, I need to clean it up before I make it public haha [04:36:27] If you would like to look at the code anyways though just use wget -r -np -k [04:36:33] Sounds fine, but others (like me) are willing to help clean it up if you want [04:36:45] OK [04:37:06] How many volunteers are helping you make this org work? [04:37:36] 9 atm [04:37:42] We started 4 days ago [04:37:51] Ooh wow, very early [04:37:52] 27 applications so far [04:38:03] already? heh [04:38:04] We make the sites in batches, batch one starts March 7 [04:38:18] You should iterate tests first [04:38:19] We're working on getting in NYT WSJ and some others to really grow [04:38:27] Plan is to do 300 sites/mo [04:38:30] And say that you're in open beta [04:38:44] Very ambitious but doesn't sound realistic [04:38:55] No need really, we have already built our CMS and done tests with some other orgs [04:39:22] You do realize that sites need to be work across browsers, devices and OSs also? [04:39:26] *need to work [04:39:47] No way [04:40:04] -_- [04:40:15] Fun fact, people not only use laptops and PCs but tablets and phones too [04:40:22] and not everyone uses Chrome [04:41:00] You can't do much about it except work with it, that's the reality [04:41:40] We've already solved that [04:41:47] I admire your ambition, but this has only started 4 days and you're already planning to start serving sites within a week [04:41:52] *4 days ago [04:41:58] I can do 8 sites a day [04:42:14] You can't solve it, things are always changing every day [04:42:22] I've already made 13 templates that supporter all browsers, windows,ubuntu,osx [04:42:35] People can just adapt them to the sites [04:42:48] Well, just because it works one day doesn't mean it'll work the next day [04:42:52] They use an alternate stylesheet that can be updated independantly lol, we know what we are doing [04:42:59] That's a crock [04:43:50] Well if you know what you're doing why are you here asking for help, advice and constructive criticism? [04:44:23] Hey man, just bored before I go to bed, just was messing around [04:45:38] i have a couple other questions [04:45:51] so, the people are working with you are just volunteers correct, or do you actually pay them? [04:46:03] Also do you mind describing each of their skillset [04:46:23] What they're providing for the whole team in general [04:47:30] oh nvm [09:58:08] i'm back to bug you all [10:13:02] why? [10:13:38] it's my calling [12:09:32] how can i add a searchbar for a skin that doesn't have it by default? [12:10:08] nvm [13:05:09] hello [13:05:56] With the API.php is it possible to list, for example, four most read page of my mediawiki? [13:06:36] I created a module that read this value on database, but with upgrade at 1.26.x the table is changed [13:27:51] Hello, on mediawiki 1.26 when i list the most read page (with api?) [14:11:25] Hi [14:12:13] I wonder if anyone could help me to change the logo from left to right side for my wiki, thanks [14:15:04] Flood_: the position of the logo is defined by the skin [14:15:35] ok, i'm running bootstrap, but cant't find in wich file i change that [14:17:04] Flood_: file? you must not touch files [14:17:30] Flood_: see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/Stylesheets on how to alter CSS of your wiki [14:17:39] ok, so where do i change it the right way :) I was about to edit the php-files for this. [15:24:53] Hello...I have upgrade from 1.22 to 1.29 [15:25:09] Why the special:page doesn't work? [15:26:03] I have a white page [15:29:50] teme: 1.29 was released in 2017. Welcome to the past, it had been 2016 right now in this channel. [15:30:06] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Errors_and_symptoms#You_see_a_Blank_Page [15:34:15] sorry andre__, I have upgrate to 1.26.2 [15:34:16] :D [15:47:36] teme: which criteria define page membership in a "top ten"? [15:48:03] most visited [17:58:34] anyone (from the reading / web team) know about the RelatedArticles extension? [17:59:12] I have it installed, and working, but it doesn't seem to pull articles from CirrusSearch https://freephile.org/wiki/Special:Version [18:26:52] freephile, ask in their channel? :) [18:27:54] will do, didn't realize they had one ;-) [21:26:18] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJUXLqNHCaI - https://stoptheharm.org/ [21:43:20] Does anyone know of a way to return a partial page name? I have a page Patches/Build_288 (example) and I really just want to grab the 288 part to use in a parser function, titleparts doesn't quite do what I need as it will only return the whole subpagename, any ideas? [22:33:25] Hey, does anyone here know how to include MediaWiki:Common.css in Special:UserLogin? [22:35:01] Yeah [22:35:05] There's a global for it [22:35:37] $wgStylePath? [22:35:50] No [22:36:04] $wgAllowSiteCSSOnRestrictedPages [22:37:20] Mmmmmmm. [22:38:06] Set that to true, then? Is there anything I need to do on my MediaWiki:Common.css to prevent Javascript XSS attacks other than protecting the page for only admin edits? [22:39:01] MW pages like that can only be edited by MW [22:39:29] uh [22:39:35] by sysops etc [22:39:36] by default [22:39:40] So, setting this to true opens me to what kinds of attacks, like the ones talked about in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T72672 [22:39:51] Nothing, then, so long as I don't open the page up? [22:40:49] DarkFeather: An admin could use it to modify the login page, and worst case grab passwords [22:41:22] It would be hard-- you'd have to inject javascript in the css, which is really only possible on IE and Opera [22:41:32] But that's why it's off by default [22:41:45] csteipp: Fair enough. I am the one and only admin and will always be such, so it'll be safe enough for my wiki. [22:41:51] I have the box root anyway [22:41:56] Thanks! [22:42:01] Yeah, in that case, no extra risk :) [22:50:22] csteipp, are you claiming that Presto is still a thing? :P [22:52:45] OuKB: I've seen plenty of it :) [22:53:06] so did I, 3 years ago;) [22:55:40] OuKB: Do you still use Opera? [22:55:51] nope [22:56:12] * OuKB wonders if MatmaRex is still a holdout [22:56:27] yeah [22:56:38] there was a 12.18 release a few days ago, actually [22:57:05] If I'm reading http://stats.wikimedia.org/wikimedia/squids/SquidReportClients.htm right, last year, most of the Opera we got on the site was Opera 12 [22:57:11] they added support for ECDSA (sp?) certificates [22:57:50] csteipp, stats is pretty much legacy so I woldn't be surpised if it detects new opera as chrome [22:58:35] Oh hey, there was even a Presto specific stat-- 2.5% [22:58:46] eek [22:59:16] MatmaRex, please stop your Opera-stats-improving bot ;P
