[02:29:06] i'm having a brainfart of how to include a timestamp in a template without it substituting the ~~~~~ with the actual timestamp [02:54:22] c: I don't know if there is a word that combines, but {{CURRENTTIME}} {{CURRENT DAY}} {{CURRENT MONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}? [02:54:40] for 02:04 20 January 2017 [02:54:57] Of course {{CURRENT DAY}} is supposed to be {{CURRENTDAY}} [14:18:50] Hi all, im wondering if someone can help me with a problem I have? [14:25:41] is anyone there? [14:39:58] subbu? [14:56:02] quinnj09: if you ask a question, you have better chance to get an answer [14:56:32] second interesting idea would be to stay for someone to answer [15:21:26] I wanted to make sure someone was in here listening... [15:21:31] my question is... [15:21:41] have a wiki page that is generated from the following: {{Table3ColumnHeader|A|B|C}} {{Table3ColumnRow|1|2|3}} {{Table3ColumnRow|78|32|53}} {{Table3ColumnRow|T1|G2|3J}} and this loads my table fine using the templates, but when I then edit my page, wikitext changes it to the following and if saved without reverting back to the above format, the table does not display correctly: {{Table3ColumnHeader|A|B|C}} {{Table3ColumnRow|1|2| [15:21:41] T1: Get puppet runs into logstash - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T1 [15:22:06] ah my question doesnt fit [15:22:30] so when I write my wiki page, I put each {{Table3ColumnHeader|A|B|C}} and {{Table3ColumnRow|1|2|3}} on a new line [15:22:50] when I then edit the page and click save, rich editor has moved them all onto one page meaning the table is not displayed correctly [15:23:09] I can't get rich editor to stop reformatting it, how can I fix? [15:23:40] If it helps to understand my problem, my question is also asked here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Support_desk [17:26:53] Hello everyone. We have need of a comment box, and I like the one at the bottom of this page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:S1q54kosfdkhz6w1 [17:27:18] Does anyone have an idea what that comment box is part of, or how I can enable it? [17:31:10] !e Flow | doc_gt7 [17:31:10] doc_gt7: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Flow_ [17:31:14] doc_gt7: that page is managed by the "Flow" extension [17:31:15] there [17:31:38] Woo! Thank you so much. [18:00:18] I am trying to install the "Flow" extension. Installed files and ran update.php but it fails with: "/extensions/Flow/extension.json does not exist!" [18:04:15] doc_gt7: what version of Flow downloaded (tied to MediaWiki version)? [18:04:50] 1.28 latest stable... [18:06:11] omg Flow doesn't have extension.json [18:06:52] Vulpix: extensions with complex initialization logic tend not to have been migrated [18:08:49] doc_gt7: you have to require_once "$IP/extensions/Flow/Flow.php"; instead of wfLoadExtension( 'Flow' ); as the page explains [18:09:13] Ah, will try that. Thank you Vulpix. [18:24:15] Does anyone know of a simple comment plugin or widget that can added to the bottom of a page? Just to add a quick note with "editing" the page. [18:25:33] er without editing the page... [18:39:57] Could anyone please help us with some recentchanges logging issues? We've had them since 1.28 and still haven't figured out how to resolve them. An extension that creates wikis logs the creations on wrong wikis instead of Meta [18:40:01] https://phabricator.miraheze.org/T1104 [18:43:32] When attempting to use Extension:Comments (v1.28) (SQLite) if I add into a page and hit save, you get "Fatal exception of type "DBQueryError"" [19:09:46] doc_gt7: you need to enable viewing of sql errors to get a better message [19:09:49] !debug [19:09:49] For information on debugging (including viewing errors), see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug . A list of related configuration variables is at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuration_settings#Debug.2Flogging [19:10:27] though given its Comments + SQLite, I'm fairly sure the issue is that it was using some MySQL specific commands in queries, and I know ashley was working on fixing that earlier this week actually [19:11:27] hrm, thank you. I will enable the debug. I love sqlite... [19:24:20] legoktm: [DBQuery] SQL ERROR: no such function: UNIX_TIMESTAMP | I guess this is not a valid call for SQLite... [19:27:12] doc_gt7: yeah, so it's what I thought. ashley was working on fixing that earlier this week [19:28:43] legoktm: Thank you. I guess I will just put our comments on hold for a bit :) [20:06:59] !blankpage [20:06:59] A blank page or HTTP 500 error usually indicates a fatal PHP error. For information on debugging (including viewing errors), see . [20:43:49] Hello [20:44:22] I'm member of a non-profit website about retrocomputing and retrogaming, https://www.retrowiki.es [20:45:36] I would like to use MediaWiki and integrate it with the forum software in a way similar to VaultWiki: one login for all the site, able to put wiki pages in the first message of a forum thread to make synthetizing easier, etc [20:45:44] Is it possible with MediaWiki? [20:48:20] yes, but you'll probably need to implement the integration yourself [20:49:59] about letting users log in with their login details for the forum: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:SessionManager_and_AuthManager#As_a_provider [20:50:37] MatmaRex: Implement the integration? But I'm not a coder! :O [20:51:43] The forum software is phpbb. I'm not the webmaster, I just can request the install of mediawiki and the extra addons [20:51:43] well :( [20:51:58] maybe someone already implemented it somewhere? i have no idea [20:53:22] There's stuff implemented, but I need to filter over tons of outdated ones [20:53:29] you could try https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PHPBB/Users_Integration perhaps. dunno [20:54:07] yep [21:16:20] fun fact: phpBB + MW integration was once kinda sorta done (as a bunch of icky patches to phpBB core) and the code is FOSS but it literally hasn't been maintained in years. if someone knowledgeable about phpBB would step up and clean the code, that'd be great [23:07:00] ashley: i volunteer yourself >.> [23:07:29] been there, done that to some extent, won't go down that rabbit hole again [23:07:43] rumor has it that phpBB has maintainers and stuff, so I volunteer them :P
