[00:17:30] Did you add it to LocalSettings.php? [01:43:56] G_SabinoMullane: how do I do that? I seee the themes on LocalSettings but not sure what to do add? the folder name? [01:45:12] I copy the theme like NXTTheme on the folder and the php file. [01:45:41] and the LocalSettings.php inserted the wfLoadSkin( 'NXTTheme' ); [01:45:55] but it can't load it [02:10:53] Hi Piotrek. [02:12:47] Piotrek: Usually individual actions have their own token, I believe. [02:13:20] There's also meta=tokens. [02:13:38] Which I guess is the replacement for action=tokens? [02:37:37] anyone know how to duplicate a skin? [02:38:11] I already copy the skin folder, and add the line on LocalSettings.php for it. But when I select it I end up with a blank page. [03:10:18] bluesilver: Did you rename the files? And the items inside them? [03:10:45] The blank page indicates a PHP error [03:10:55] !blankpage [03:10:55] A blank page or HTTP 500 error usually indicates a fatal PHP error.

[04:59:13] Why is my wiki doing this on a fresh install? http://totallykayaba.com/wikis/test/mw-config/index.php [05:00:44] TheKayaba: LocalSettings.php is missing [05:00:52] and also the css seems to be broken [05:01:10] [edce6856] /wikis/test/mw-config/index.php?css=1 Less_Exception_Parser from line 447 of C:\Inetpub\vhosts\totallykayaba.com\httpdocs\wikis\test\vendor\oyejorge\less.php\lib\Less\Parser.php: Less.php cache directory isn't writable: C:\Windows\TEMP
[05:02:29] rip forgot to give write access to temp [05:02:30] : [05:02:41] yeh thats cause Its a fresh install [05:02:44] havent installed yet I mean [05:02:45] :> [05:03:23] derp.. cant believe I forgot about write access [05:08:14] All fixed [05:08:15] :> [05:08:18] Thank you [08:19:59] hey alll, is there an easy way to get a list of pages in a category using only a wget/curl command ? [08:38:42] spectei: Yeah, you could [08:38:58] Problem is when there's a lot of pages, and you need pagination/multiple requests [08:39:03] A simple curl/wget won't suffice then [08:40:21] yeah [08:40:24] that's the problem [08:40:33] i installed pywikipediabot [08:41:03] :) [11:16:03] Hey. I'm having a strange issue with my server. It redirects /wiki to /Wiki and index.php to Index.php. Not sure if this applies to other files as well, but I'm wondering what could be behind this. [11:16:26] also, can $wgScriptPath be an empty variable? [11:31:56] elefantenn: it will be related to the configuration of your webserver [13:28:40] morning [13:33:24] Morning. [17:46:10] Hey. Is anyone here the IP that did https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki_1.26&diff=0&oldid=2100952 ? I'm going to revert but… [17:53:14] OK, reverted. [19:04:08] Hello. New to mediawiki. Is there an extention that will allow me to query a database and display the results in a table? (ie. select col1, col2, col3 from table where id >5;) [19:05:11] Well There is the Cargo extension [19:05:17] Extension:External_Data seems ok, but I am wondering if there is one just for databases [19:05:31] And lots of the SMW stuff is kind of similar, but not with a relational model [19:06:06] Doesn't need to be relational [19:06:40] Well, you may want to check out SemanticMediaWiki then [19:06:53] Going to be used to track server information. Cab#, IP, hardware, services, etc [19:07:18] But right now we have to update 10 different places for a new server [19:08:53] Trying to make it so we only update one location, and then each page just queries the information [19:10:58] That does sound like a Semantic MediaWiki use case [19:11:13] Or more generally, templates? [19:11:15] !templates [19:11:15] For more information about templates, see . See also: !templateproblems , !wptemplates [19:12:03] hmmm [19:13:15] I would need to update a record in a main location, but it to update on multiple pages [19:15:30] i don't quite see where the data is stored in smw [19:32:22] [20:04:36] evening, for a small scale company wiki we want to have a better search engine, any recommendations? [20:04:57] Hi akoopal. [20:05:13] Does your company already use some search engine solution. [20:05:24] nope [20:05:56] at least, not in our part of the business [20:06:17] Okay. The Wikimedia cluster uses https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CirrusSearch, it interacts with Elasticsearch, a solution based on Apache Lucene [20:07:08] how big or small can that be [20:07:55] It's pretty heavy. [20:08:43] But if you use Docker, https://hub.docker.com/_/elasticsearch/ container offers sane and sensible defaults (CirrusSearch uses 1.7 version by the way). [20:09:22] I'm not sure it has already been tested by third party users. [20:10:37] elasticsearch is known for the default thingy not having sane defaults... [20:14:48] I am wondering if it is not to heavy for a small wiki instance. It is a wiki for the documentation of our server-build and procedures around it [20:19:27] Are you having problems with the default search feature [20:19:36] if yes, use elastic, if no, I wouldn't worry too much [20:19:49] elastic will give you higher quality results [20:22:47] there is a demand for better search yes, was wondering if there is an 'in between' [20:23:06] but seems elasticsearch is then the better option [20:27:29] ok, I know enough for the call for tomorrow, thanks for now [22:35:31] hi anyone around? [22:35:50] I am trying to design a logo on my mediawiki [22:38:37] hello [22:41:16] Hi! [23:05:04] any hints as to why [23:05:04] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=expandtemplates&text={{echo|DEFAULTSORT}}&prop=wikitext|categories|properties|modules|jsconfigvars&format=json [23:05:11] vs [23:05:11] https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=expandtemplates&text={{echo|DEFAULTSORT}}&prop=wikitext|categories|properties|modules|jsconfigvars&format=json [23:06:55] arlolra: The local templates are different? [23:07:05] What's Template:Echo? [23:07:08] yeah [23:07:22] lego pointed me to [23:07:22] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3AEcho&action=historysubmit&type=revision&diff=717111119&oldid=715379261 [23:07:28] sorry for the noise [23:07:36] No problem. :-)
