[00:06:20] WYSIWYG editor. I changed the config.js under the ckeditor dir, but the toolbar didn't change. what's the problem? [00:34:41] Hello, I am having problems implementing code into Common.js which is found on Manual:Interface/Sidebar. I think the JS is incorrect, but I am not proficient enough with JS to know for sure. ... [00:35:57] If you go to the Sidebar page at mediawiki, then search for 'restricting modifications' on the page, that will take you to the code I am struggling with. I receive the following error message when run... [00:37:14] Okay...wait a minute...I may have found the problem. I'll be back in a few, after I check. [00:53:39] Nope, still have issues. The code is definitely incorrect...I get an error stating that wgUserGroups is deprecated. [00:59:10] I'll come back tomorrow for help. Thanks. [01:23:50] hello [01:24:47] I need a help in vanishing my account in all wikipedias [01:25:09] can someone help me [01:25:09] Hi Dani__, just ask! There is no need to ask if you can ask, if you already asked the question please wait for someone to respond [02:41:49] hi [02:42:03] i need a help in vanishing my account [02:43:22] I have no idea what you mean by that, can you re-phrase your question? [02:44:22] I used to edit in wikipedia and I realize that I do want to edit anymore, I want to delete my account [02:44:40] *I don't want [02:44:42] sorry [02:49:01] Skizzerz: [02:52:32] account deletion is not possible, you can simply stop using it [02:52:50] you can ask an admin on the wiki to block your account as well if you aren't planning on coming back [02:53:34] what to do to block? [02:57:06] if it's for wikipedia, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Courtesy_vanishing [03:02:10] is there a way to pass "complex" parameters to a template? I want to pass a string with several links {{Template:Something|param=1|param=[[Link1]], [[Link2]]}} [12:41:12] Hello [12:41:59] i would like to add a logo to this page [12:42:01] https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternit-Werke?veaction=edit [12:42:36] i tried it by adding but the logo (png) is shown black [12:42:51] can you help me? [12:43:53] Manuela: where is the logo located? [12:44:22] hi andre [12:44:24] in the mediathek [12:44:33] what is the "mediathek"? [12:44:46] "media" [12:45:16] ah, so you go to "insert > media" I guess [12:45:24] ooh yes [12:45:32] is there a different way to do it? [12:45:33] and the first proposed item is "Eternit Logo" for you? because it is here [12:45:40] yes thats the right one [12:45:44] before it was the blue [12:45:54] but since january is the new [12:45:58] (red) one [12:46:11] Works for me. The SVG (not: PNG) is inserted in the preview. [12:46:21] Using Firefox 51 here [12:46:39] hmmm thats strange [12:46:43] im using chrome [12:49:23] Hi its me again [12:49:28] i was chating with andre [12:49:43] about the eternit logo [12:50:01] for the site https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternit-Werke?veaction=edit [12:50:28] and i wanted to send a screenshot but then it closed the chat [12:50:52] before we had the blue logo [12:50:59] since january the new red one [12:51:06] how can i change it? [12:51:13] i uploaded it but its shown in black [12:51:22] thank you very much! [12:56:46] ?? [13:33:27] andre__: Yeah,thanks.I will follow it. [13:33:40] I miss context. :) [14:05:52] andre__: Your last message to vivek___ in this channel was a link to a section of How to become MW hacker. ;) [14:06:02] ah :) [14:06:31] The thing is, I have dozens of conversations every day, so if you pick up a conversation from hours ago I need some context again to remember which one it was. :P [14:06:34] thanks [14:08:15] I know. I didn't have that in mind too, just a quick search engine within my IRC client ;) yw [14:50:48] eddiegp: Yeah thanks :) [15:29:28] I suspect there may be malware code in the mediawiki files on my installation. Is there a way to find the infected files or be reasonably sure none are infected? [15:31:26] tale: what version of mediawiki? [15:32:20] you could blow off all of your existing mediawiki code files (keep your LocalSettings.php) and re-download a fresh copy of them [15:32:33] if you want to validate your existing files, you can compare their checksums against a clean copy [15:42:20] hey, I asked this late last night but everyone seemed afk, so sorry for asking again: is there a way to pass "complex" parameters to a template? I want to pass a string with several links {{Template:Something|param=1|param=[[Link1]], [[Link2]]}} [15:43:31] vive: sure, all templates accept arbitrary wikitext for parameters [15:43:47] you don't need to do anything special [15:44:23] hmm, I'll try again because when I tried it, the template broke [15:44:27] with exception of: if said arbitrary wikitext contains the pipe character '|', you will need to escape it [15:44:43] the ! template is useful for that, e.g. {{something|thing{{!}}with{{!}}pipes}} [15:44:46] ya it just had some numbers, commas, and [[links]] [15:46:33] well ok, it worked fine. I must have missed a character last time or something... I thought for sure I had typed it correctly [15:47:08] cool :) [15:47:22] if your template is in the Template: namespace, you don't need to put Template: in front of it [15:47:31] so {{Template:Something}} is equivalent to {{Something}} [15:47:42] (in other words, the Template: prefix is implied) [15:47:47] that's good to know, thanks [15:47:55] if your template is in a different namespace, you need to put the prefix in there [15:53:36] andre__: I am confused that whether I need to follow the 'Download from git' and the 'installation guide' procedure since I have installed mediawiki localhost earlier.Can you help me out.? [15:54:52] vivek___, we don't know what you want to do... the answer depends on what you want to achieve I guess. [15:55:09] Also, if you refer to some procedure, please tell us where to find that procedure exactly. [15:55:26] we cannot look over your shoulder to understand on which wiki page you are. [15:55:35] andre__: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker [15:56:28] vivek___, if you've already installed and configured your MediaWiki installation, you have already done that. :) [15:56:41] Only you know what you have done already :P [15:57:00] (no need to ping me specifically though :) [15:58:45] Cool:) [16:37:30] After upgrade from 1.26.2 to 1.28, mediawiki bombs with "Fatal error: Class 'Wikimedia\PhpSessionSerializer' not found in /var/www/w/includes/session/PHPSessionHandler.php on line 161" [16:39:14] tale: you didn't update your composer dependencies I presume [16:39:50] thedj: How is that done? [16:40:04] Did not see that in upgrade instructions? [16:40:55] Found mention of composer in Using Git -chapter. But I am not using git. [16:41:07] how did you update ? [16:41:24] and did that update process include copying the vendor directory ? [16:45:28] tale: tarballs are distributed with a vendor directory, which include your (composer) dependencies on php libraries. [16:46:34] you need to copy those over when you upgrade, or it won't work. If you use git or something, then you can use the composer commandline tool to manage or create such a directory manually. [16:52:54] I upgraded with https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading [16:54:18] The old file tree has a vendor directory, but so does the new. [16:56:26] The tar file for mediawiki-1.28.0 has the vendor directory, and lots of files there. Is that not enough? [16:57:43] well your installation cannot find what should be in vendor/wikimedia/php-session-serializer/src/Wikimedia/PhpSessionSerializer.php [16:58:12] so either it's not there, it's broken, it's outdated, it's not readable, or the file needed to load that code is broken or something. [17:03:02] Good grief. [17:03:19] Now it works. [17:12:23] so the new Invisible reCAPTCHA [17:12:44] does anyone know if the current ConfirmEdit module for reCAPTCHA v2 works for it? [18:39:21] Hi [18:39:31] Anyone here prepared to loose their sanity over something? [18:39:40] https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Scriptorium/Help#CharInsert_Gadget_won.27t_display [18:40:12] CharInsert is a Gadget that allows the addition of various special charcters, [18:40:25] and for me it will display when Logged out, but not logged in [18:41:59] I've tried resetting options, turning on and off selected Gadgets to try and narrow down why it isn't appearing [18:42:49] The only change I can think of is that I was recently trialling the new wiki-text-mode of VE in beta features... [18:43:27] and that something got corrupted [20:14:41] wikimaster [20:14:51] wiki wiki [20:18:25] wikimaster400: Do you have a question? [20:25:03] Anyone in?
