[00:22:23] hello, what sort of witchcraft is this https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/w/index.php?title=Category:%E2%A7%BCrss-tracking-category%E2%A7%BD&action=edit&redlink=1 [00:23:00] it used to be just https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Pages_with_RSS_feeds [00:44:09] having a bit of a panic -- upgraded from 1.24 to 1.29 and all content is gone from my site (depts.washington.edu/chargeco/wiki) [00:46:30] 1) did you backup your database before upgrading? 2) did you run update.php after upgrading 3) it's hard to troubleshoot when your wiki requires an account to view pages [00:46:56] 1) yes 2) yes 3) sorry [00:47:17] the main page *should* be viewable to users who aren't logged in [00:48:04] I did this by making an entirely new folder for the new installation and copying LocalSettings.php over to the new folder, then renaming the directory (from mediawiki-1.29 to wiki) [00:48:23] should I have just extracted the new version *over* the old one? [00:51:51] that is messy and not recommended, I usually just move over the images directory, localsettings, any non-default extensions, and custom skins/logos to the new directory as per the guide and then rename the directories and run update.php [00:52:57] Sorry - is it recommeded to install in a new folder or the old one? [00:55:44] new folder [00:55:58] then move local settings, images, extensions, skins, logo, etc over to new one [00:56:18] then switch the names of the directories [00:57:14] ok, that's what I thought I did [00:57:41] I didn't move any extensions. Was planning to re-install new versions as needed. [01:06:48] the updated version still seems to know about past users, but no pages have any content [01:07:02] Is there a variable I need to update in LocalSettings? [01:30:49] Hi joshc. [01:31:00] There's no "$wgShowMePageContent" variable for LocalSettings.php. [01:59:06] I just noticed on a wiki farm (#miraheze) that there's a beta feature called "Enhanced notifications" for crosswiki echo notifications but I have to turn it on on all wikis. Is there an easy way to set the preference on all wikis where my account exists? (possibly with DB access?) [02:32:40] So, is mwdumper the best and recommended way to import wikipedia into mediawiki? I keep running into “XML document structures must start and end within the same entity” error [03:09:27] Esther: did you see my question [03:50:28] c: https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:%E2%A7%BCrss-tracking-category%E2%A7%BD seems like a localization cache failure [03:50:38] try a null edit? [03:51:22] c: and on https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Special:Version you see so somehow the RSS i18n messages aren't being loaded [03:52:46] legoktm: well i don't want Category:?rss-tracking-category? - i tried to edit MediaWiki:rss-tracking-category thinking it'd fix it but i guess not. wonder why they're not being loaded. I forget if RSS was updated when I upgraded from mw28 to mw29 [03:53:11] right. something is wrong with your localization cache [03:53:21] You could also try commenting out the extension, loading the page and readding the extension. I think thatd force a localization cache rebuild [03:53:41] is anything related to $wgLocalisationCacheConf set in LocalSettings.php? [03:53:51] no, wouldn't rebuildLocalisationCache.php do the trick? [03:55:28] I think it should [06:23:10] I join [08:22:40] hi to everyoner [08:23:16] i have to configure a mediawiki web and i dont know where to start [08:24:22] how i can configure diferents groups in my wiki? only in the LocalSettings file? i try this solution and don't work [09:02:45] Hi? Somebody is here? [09:11:12] CJ_: still here? [09:11:15] !userrights [09:11:16] For information on customizing user access, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:User_rights >. For common examples of restricting access using both rights and extensions, see < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access >. [09:14:17] hi [09:14:32] userrights on the localsettings file? [09:14:54] Yes, it's done in LocalSettings.php [09:15:43] there's also https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights which wasn't mentioned by the bot directly [09:19:20] i try to configure this way, but i read all the documentation and i think that isn,t a one step configuration. [09:19:31] Thank you so much [10:43:49] where is the userrights key on the localSettings file? i don't found it [10:44:09] i only see the key groupPermissions [11:26:04] Is there any good extensions that allow you to lock an account like centralauth on ONE wiki only? [11:29:18] disableaccount would be the closest I can think of [11:29:38] but it removes email/password from the user so it cannot be undone [11:29:50] !e disableaccount [11:29:51] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:disableaccount [11:30:10] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DisableAccount [11:30:12] that one [11:46:35] How do I disable two-factor authentication? [11:50:58] GoldRIngChip: enter your preferences and hit "disable two-factor authentication" [11:51:55] it'll ask you for a totp token or, in case you've lost the generating device, two scratch-codes [11:52:14] Thanks for replying. The problem is that TFA isn't sending me a code. It won't let me disable the TFA without first providing the code. I've tried all my scratch codes and they don't work. [11:54:17] so you can't log in, right? [11:54:59] in that case I'm not the right person to reply [11:55:08] Well, I did log in, actually. That's the nice thing. It let me reset my password. [11:58:05] Zzz. Anyone else there who can help? How do I disable two-factor authentication? [12:03:54] GoldRIngChip: it is unusual that the scratch codes don't work, are you sure they're the correct ones? [12:04:20] Thank you for replying. Yes… one of them worked to log me in. But now none of them will work to disable TFA. [12:05:05] The problem is that TFA isn't sending a text code to my phone. so I had to reset my password altogether. [12:06:27] I have a Token, a Secret Key, and 4 Scratch Codes. None of them worked. [12:08:58] Zzz. Anyone else there who can help? How do I disable two-factor authentication? [12:14:03] Zzz. Anyone else there who can help? How do I disable two-factor authentication? [12:19:17] Zzz. Anyone else there who can help? How do I disable two-factor authentication? [12:32:59] Trun off 2 factor for an account or for the wiki? [12:35:06] lol [17:42:16] Is there a way to easily remove spaces in a string? [17:42:41] in what? [17:45:55] I want to be able to remove all spaces in an string, that is passed to a template. For example, change 'file name' to 'filename'. Is there a way to do this? [17:53:50] Amie: not in wikitext. if you have the Scribunto extension installed, you could write a lua module for it. [17:55:02] MatmaRex: I haven't gotten that far in my 'training' yet, but thank you for the help. I think I found a way to get around my issues. [17:55:04] ParserFunctions can also do it if you enable the string functions (these are disabled on WMF wikis and will not be enabled; if you're asking about a WMF wiki then Scribunto is the way to go) [17:56:14] if your own wiki, then $wgPFEnableStringFunctions = true; in LocalSettings.php will enable them; see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions#.23replace: in that case [17:57:30] Skizzerz: A replace function is perfect, thank you! [18:27:56] Hi again - I upgraded from 1.24 to 1.29 and am now seeing "there is currently no text in this page". I backed up directory plus .sql and .xml using mysqldump. Can't think of anything else to check. Wiki is at depts.washington.edu/chargeco/wiki [20:18:08] RoanKattouw: I’m trying to enable the new recent changes filters on my development wiki, but don’t see it in the Beta preferences tab…. [20:18:42] It’s in mw-core, not an extension, right? [20:24:59] awight: it's kinda silly, you need the BetaFeatures extension to see the preference [20:25:15] awight: i think there's some alternative config to enable it for everyone without the preferences though [20:25:19] I’ve got that, but my Beta preferences tab is empty [20:29:57] MatmaRex: oops, simple solution! Looks like my BetaFeatures extension is out-of-date. [20:31:03] still empty! [20:32:43] fwiw, I don’t see the eri-rcfilters-beta-label i18n key anywhere in the code. looks like I need an extension WikimediaMessages [20:35:54] awight: Ah yes, sorry, it's in WMMessages [20:39:25] noo! beta prefs are still empty [20:40:08] I have extensions BetaFeatures and WikimediaMessages. I haven’t set any special $wg globals yet. Is there a developer doc page for how to install? ah—or a vagrant role I can read? [20:42:46] RoanKattouw: ^ [20:44:11] awight: Lemme look at my own conifg [20:44:24] awight: $wgEnableRcFiltersBetaFeature = true; [20:44:28] hahaha ty [20:44:56] That was it.
