[01:07:42] Is there any reason why mediawiki-vagrant doesn't just mirror the vagrant mediawiki directory and instead only mirrors specific directories and files? [01:09:19] Some skins and extensions require directories that aren't mirrored, and so won't work with the image. Along with the fact that sometimes when I suspend the image, I can't resume it, SSH won't connect in the 'vagrant up' command [13:07:46] Hi, i'm having some issues with flow, someone can help me? [13:09:24] !ask | tomaluca95 [13:09:24] tomaluca95: 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. :) [13:13:21] Running Flow-master-4da3c39 update i get a error about a mysql key [13:13:28] Query: ALTER TABLE `flow_ext_ref` CHANGE ref_target ref_target BLOB NOT NULL [13:13:34] Error: 1170 BLOB/TEXT column 'ref_target' used in key specification without a key length (mysql) [13:14:00] with Flow-master-0409bae no problem at all [13:28:23] morning [14:17:59] smeone around to help me with my flow issue? or there is aonther irc channel where ask? [14:18:35] tomaluca95: you could ask at #wikimedia-collaboration, that's the IRC channel of the team that develops Flow [14:18:56] tomaluca95: most of the team lives in SF and they're probably still asleep, but give them an hour or two to appear ;) [14:23:06] MatmaRex: thanks [16:05:20] Hiya! I've got a quick question regarding caching in mediawiki if someone wouldn't mind humouring me? [16:08:51] just ask? [16:11:49] Sure, thanks! I upgraded the wiki I installed from 1.24 to 1.26 without much trouble, but am now receiving an error upon loading, "CACHE_ACCEL requested but no suitable object cache is present. You may want to install APC." [16:12:02] I can disable caching and use the wiki, but it's obviously slow as molasses [16:12:56] I looked into it, saw that APC is not recommended anymore so I looked into using OPCache, and everything seems set up right, but I still get the same error. Do I still use CACHE_ACCEL as the main cache option? [16:13:34] I tried installing APC too, but it fails to make during the install. So a dead end there [16:23:32] Lou__: Zend opcache is not a user cache [16:23:37] you can look into apcu [16:24:00] while an opcode cache improves performance, it is not usable for MediaWiki's CACHE_ACCEL [16:24:10] ideally you'd have both a user and opcode cache [16:24:44] (apcu is a user cache and successor to APC) [18:17:03] @Skizzerz I'll look into APCu right now [18:20:41] Skizzerz, thank you so much for that reference, it makes a lot more sense now. I'll try an install of APCu now [20:22:21] is it possible to have content that only appears when the Download as PDF is clicked? [20:22:32] that is appears in the PDF [20:52:19] hi all, i got problem setting up xdebug in phpstorm via wikimedia-vagrant. I kept getting "Waiting for incoming connection with ide key '12345' in the console. Anyone know how to fix this? [20:53:59] already followed instruction from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki-Vagrant#Debugging and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki-Vagrant/Advanced_usage#MediaWiki_debugging_using_Xdebug_and_an_IDE_in_your_host but all was to no avail [20:54:27] could anyone help me please, as i already spent several hours just to fix this, thank you in advance [21:01:44] maybe matt_flaschen or yurik know ^ [21:03:36] Sorry, I'm not familiar with how to do it in PHPStorm [21:06:17] ori, is the yurik the name that was mentioned in this link? https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=User:Yurik/Installing_Linux_virtual_box_under_Windows_7&action=edit&redlink=1 [21:06:37] seems that page from that link already not exist anymore [21:08:03] sorry, lemme re-login again from native app for the irc [21:09:09] i'm back! [21:32:44] is it possible to use Special:Random to generate image thumbnails? [21:32:52] I am hoping to be pointed in the right direction. Can you make an ordered list appear in the table of contents instead of using heading? [21:34:39] I suppose I could use this instead https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RandomImage [21:35:47] Neville: no, the ToC is not customizable in that fashion (outside of using javascript). You can suppress it with __NOTOC__ and build your own however [21:36:21] is there some reason you cannot use headings? [21:36:29] Skizzerz: ok [21:37:18] Skizzers: Could I change the formatting of the heading just for a section? [21:37:36] could you give an example of what you mean by that? [21:38:28] Skizzerz: I would like the heading to appear as a bullet list. [21:39:20] yes, that should be possible [21:39:35] you will need to be an administrator on the wiki, however [21:42:37] Neville: basically you can either go the __NOTOC__ route and make your own custom table of contents, or you can insert page-specific CSS rules which will allow you to replace the number with a bullet [21:43:03] page-specific CSS requires admin access since you will need to edit pages in the MediaWiki: namespace; knowledge of CSS is also recommended [21:43:19] I don't want a custom TOC. [21:44:10] if you look at the built-in TOC's source, you will see each
  • has both a toclevel-# class and a tocsection-# class; levels specify indent level and section numbers are unique [21:44:13] Page specific CSS may work; I want to format how the heading is rendered. [21:44:27] inside of that you'll see a with the section number in it [21:44:33] I have admin access to the wiki in question. [21:45:58] To clarify, I want to format the heading; not the TOC. [21:46:32] define "format the heading" [21:46:41] headings can take the vast majority of wikitext [21:47:04] == '''My bold and red heading''' == is totally valid [21:48:16] if that isn't what you're after, then I really have no idea what you actually want, so please give a concrete example of what you are trying to accomplish [23:29:54] has everyone here ever setup mediawiki-vagrant with phpstorm for debugging with xdebug before?
