[06:22:02] Hello. Please let me know how to get bytes added or removed per page by a user [08:49:16] Hello. Please let me know how to get bytes added or removed per page by a user [09:10:02] Hello [09:10:09] Hi! Question. We're using mediawiki and I was told I could use an API to use in my PHP code to automatically trigger the creation of a wiki page. Could someone point me to an example? [09:11:43] I've been trying to use the math extension to mediawiki, but anytime I try to use the math tags, I get the following type of error : [09:11:44] A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.[9557a6e7f976c42f8c0548d0] 2017-05-15 09:03:40: Fatal exception of type "DBQueryError" [09:11:52] This is a brand new wiki [09:12:01] I'm not sure what the issue is [09:12:28] I've added $wgShowSQLErrors = 1; to the settings file but it doesn't seem to give me more informations [09:12:40] the error only happens when I use the math tag [10:05:10] Hello there and Thanks Thanks Thanks Thanks for the awesomest wiki engine in this neck of Laniakea Supercluster [10:05:51] I currently have a "development" wiki for the Consumerium - Enhancing Consumer Informedness at http://develop.consumerium.org/wiki/ [10:06:09] My question is about sharing user-databases across many Mediawiki instances [10:06:34] I would like to remain with the Esbo hosting guys coz everything just works with them since over 10 yrs ago [10:07:16] I moved all the services off that server onto a server with a hosting guys that use only renewable electricity [10:07:37] So I would like to share Mediawiki user database across many servers please? [10:08:00] I've been told CentralAuth is much work and complexity [10:09:40] coz I need like semantic.consumerium.org to share the same user table with develop.consumerium.org [10:09:45] that is the only clean solution imo [10:11:45] Mmm... 250mg Mg2+ [11:44:50] Do you know any plugin which would display list pages / category pages not as alphabetical lists, but as tables with more details? I'd like to have a list of people with their photos visible and automatically updated each time I add somebody to a list / category. [12:32:04] How can I have many wikis that all have the same exact users? [12:32:28] jubo2, for sure you can have a script synchronizing DBs [12:32:42] preferably I would like the wikis to be on different machines [12:33:11] alxd: I need a solid and extending solution in the long run [14:36:21] I get problem [14:36:32] error appears when attempting to upload a file [14:36:44] It says 'Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/1/14/Food-parsa-voisula-juusto.jpg"' [14:38:53] I don't know of the "mwstore"-protocol nor what the local-backend is [14:39:24] I gotta mention here while I remember it that this may be due to the server migration I did in December [14:41:14] Entering "Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend" into an internet search engine shows dozens of results. What you have tried already to fix this? [14:46:45] jubo2: unless you set up something fancy for media storage, like Swift, "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/" usually refers to the images/ directory in your MediaWiki installation. [14:47:00] so make sure that directory exists, and that your server can create files in it. [14:56:17] MatmaRex: hmm.. wrong rights could be the answer to why it not working [14:59:51] Okk.. I did a 'sudo chown -R www-data:www-data images/' on it .. I'll try the upload again [15:00:34] Voilà! It works! [15:00:52] Thanks MatmaRex for poking me in the right direction [15:01:18] yay [15:06:12] Gonna install a Semantic MediaWiki on this one fresh Mediawiki 1.28.2 I got over there at the Esbo server [15:17:15] hmm... having trouble getting the pretty URL's [15:17:46] probably something with what certbot added to the files is breaking the normal rewrite arrangement from working [15:18:54] the bit certbot added to the conf is as follows [15:18:57] RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =background.consumerium.org [15:18:58] RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,QSA,R=permanent] [15:25:55] nope... it was the parts autogenerated by certbot [15:26:19] I needed to uncomment the rewrite rules there too, not only on the port 80 but 443 too [15:26:33] next.. Installation of my first ever Semantic Mediawiki [15:45:47] how do I change the "publicness" setting of a wiki after installation [15:45:55] I accidentally "open wiki" from old habit [17:17:00] hi there [17:18:03] I've been getting great support on mediawiki on the support desk https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Tqcpaksxynh43c8w and in the github repo of one stable MediaWiki extension [17:18:25] I'm not getting much response looking for help with the visual editor: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:VisualEditor [17:19:10] I've got it all working, but there are some issues on IE and iPad that I'd like to resolve - I'm wondering where the best place to catch up with whoever's working on the VisualEditor ...? [17:19:34] It's very likely most/all of them are currently travelling [17:19:47] thanks Reedy - makes sense [17:20:03] I notice that there've been no responses on the Extension talk for the last 18 days [17:20:17] That's possibly a slightly different issue [17:20:28] I'm also finding the Extension talk pages a bit difficult to navigate - there doesn't appear to be a way to search all previous messages ... [17:20:47] https://www.dropbox.com/s/oxlaa0tg2cpsmll/Screenshot%202017-05-15%2018.20.43.png?dl=1 [17:21:13] I can browse a limited set of topics, see new or active topics, but can't do a full search ... [17:24:50] Reedy: with some other extensions I've been able to get to a github repo and have a good conversation, but not for VisualEditor - any idea where to go to connect up with the developers? another irc channel? I might even be able to contribute some fixes ... [17:24:50] for reporting issues, phabricator is your best bet -- https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/query/CjocuqJ09lm5/#R is a list of all open issues on VisualEditor (assuming that link works). If you don't find your issue on there, you can open a new one [17:25:10] Skizzerz; thanks [17:25:23] I think they have an IRC channel [17:26:28] Reedy: yeah, looks like #mediawiki-visualeditor [17:26:38] cool - thanks! [22:03:22] hey
