[05:02:37] Hi! Does anyone know a good, up-to-date tutorial on installing VisualEditor along with Parsoid? [05:56:11] Is there any way that I can get put into the main #mediawiki channel so I can ask some questions? There doesn’t seem to be much activity here :) [05:57:19] @Haley Would you be the person that could put me into that channel? New to this all! Thanks! [08:58:33] I'm having problems with images; I asked a couple of days ago, and at least one problem (login causing exceptions) is fixed. [09:30:47] Only some images are shown in the pages, but I can still see them when clicking the link under "wiki/Fil:Some Image.jpg" [10:43:24] https://dpaste.de/3u4Z <- I have this in my apache configuration. I don't get the entry from the access log. [10:43:32] I'm running 1.31 [11:16:09] $wgResponsiveImages = false; [11:16:41] this was the source of my headache; in the srcset of the img-tag, there was "5x". So Apache was not to blame. [11:17:06] Default is true; changing it to false solved the error. [12:26:06] yo [12:56:21] bawolff: I forgot to say thanks for input the other day. I think my problems have all been solved. [15:34:06] Anyone listening here? I’m new and trying to figure this all out. When I’m signing in here it says “Mode is +Cnzf #wikimedia-overflow” What exactly does that mean? Am I not in the main mediawiki irc? Or limited somehow? Have asked a few questions here and never heard from anyone. Thanks for any help! [15:34:51] curdievin: It means in certain circumstances you would get forwarded to #wikimedia-overflow [15:35:02] e.g. during spam attacks, sometimes unregistered users are forwarded there [15:35:14] rest assured, you really are in #mediawiki [15:36:19] Oh, thank you so much for that info! I’ll have to figure out how to register now :) [15:37:59] curdievin: type [15:38:04] /msg nickserv help [15:38:14] will tell you how to register [15:39:04] Awesome! Thanks you for helping @bawolff! I’ll try it right now. [15:39:15] /msg nickserv help [15:39:56] curdievin: no space before the / [15:40:31] curdievin: see also https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC/Instructions [15:41:00] Ah, just googling to find out if it needed the / or not, but the space was the problem :) thanks @bawolff [15:41:33] I had a space in mine, so that it would show up in the channel, and not do the special things that stuff starting with a / would normally do [15:48:50] Makes sense, thank you! @bawollf [15:49:39] Does anyone here know a good, up-to-date tutorial on installing VisualEditor along with Parsoid? [15:50:22] Preferably tailored to a beginner :) [15:52:03] curdievin: step 1. abandon all hope all ye who enter here [15:52:03] :P [15:52:17] but really, setting up parsoid and VE is the opposite of newbie-friendly [15:53:11] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/Setup should get you started with Parsoid [15:53:36] then follow https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor#Setting_up_VisualEditor [15:54:16] if following those linked instructions, you will need root access to your server [15:54:36] it's possible to install parsoid without root, but it's a lot harder and I wouldn't recommend it if you can install as root instead [15:54:48] @Skizzerz Yeah, been reading about it and seems like I should turn and run now, but need to learn stuff sometime :) [15:55:13] poke here if you hit any snags while trying to follow those instructions [15:55:31] I did setup a server with root access but haven’t really done that before so I’m jumping in the deep end of the pool :) [15:56:46] Up to this point the most intense web stuff I’ve done is setting up Wordpress sites (at a fairly basic level) so this should be interesting! [15:59:08] Thanks for your help @Skizzerz I’ll take a look at those and most likely be back here with noob questions :) [15:59:50] np [16:00:14] as an aside, you don't need the @ in IRC to highlight/ping someone. Simply mentioning their nick will work [16:01:54] Ah, thanks Skizzerz Also, I don’t know if this is the correct place to ask this, but if I can’t figure it out and end up wanting to pay a developer to set it up for me, could I find someone here or where would be a good place to find someone who could work with mediawiki? [16:02:37] there's a bunch of places to look for that. I personally offer professional services, and I know quite a few other users here do as well [16:03:01] there's also a chart on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Professional_development_and_consulting [16:04:12] if you want my rates, drop me a private message: type "/query Skizzerz" without the quotes, but with the slash in front to open a new pm window, and then you can speak in there [16:05:02] Great will message now! [18:43:03] is there any hook for VE for sfter save? [18:43:14] * after [18:43:43] I want to do an edit on the page after the user edits by VE [19:43:25] Howdy, anyone around to check on something for me? Been a while since I used MediaWiki and modules are kind of new to me. [19:43:37] Keep getting what I believe are syntax errors on imported modules and templates [19:54:31] that doesn't sound too good [19:55:27] I'm like 90% sure I'm just an idiot and its because I didnt enable parser functions o_o [20:04:27] if you see modules in there, you need scribunto too [20:11:00] Yeah I did scribunto before enabling parserfunctions [20:11:28] It'd be neat if there was a standard package of templates that you could install [20:11:53] I might have to do that some day with how many wikis I'm running on my farm [20:34:56] hey Krenair https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/ReleaseNotesBot any idea who's bot that is? (just curious really) [20:36:13] Praxidicae: that is chad's by the look [20:36:18] no idea [20:36:27] Registered: 20:51, 12 December 2017 (12 months ago) [20:36:27] Total edit count: 1 [20:36:32] yah i looked at that [20:36:33] attached on meta too [20:36:40] 06:51, 13 December 2017 User account ReleaseNotesBot (talk | contribs | block) was created by 😂 (talk | contribs | block) (Bot for auto-posting release notes to wiki) [20:36:56] i am always skeptical of red user page bots :P [20:38:00] i'm dumb i didn't think to look at creation log p858snake|L [20:38:01] derp [21:09:06] Taven @daegontaven posted in How do you override CSS for elements built with the OOUI library? - https://discourse-mediawiki.wmflabs.org/t/how-do-you-override-css-for-elements-built-with-the-ooui-library/1017/1 [22:05:54] Hi all, I am trying to get an extension installed for my mediawiki here https://wiki.healthylondon.org/Social_Prescribing_and_Self_Care_Wiki where I can have a section for featured pages, which rotates daily/weekly. I've tried following the instructions for DailyFeaturedPage, which says it is installed in Special:Version, but just displays the tags. I have also successfully installed FeaturedFeeds, but [22:05:54] can't seem to get the configuration correct following the instructions here https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:FeaturedFeeds. I'm concerned that I might not be trying to use the right tool for the job. Is FeaturedFeeds meant to be used for internal content from my MediaWiki instance or is it for Wikipedia Featured Articles? The repo is open source and can be found here https://github.com/AgileVentures/SocialPrescribingW [22:05:55] iki/tree/gZcVKj3C-featured-page, if anyone is interested in having a look. I can also copy and paste parts of the config, if that is easier for anyone willing to help. Thanks in advance. [22:11:54] FeaturedFeeds is to create Atom/RSS feeds of "featured" articles/content [22:12:57] mattwr18: typically what most wikis do is they have a page like Template:Featured article/January 2, 2019, and then use parser functions to transclude the page for the current day [22:13:09] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##time [22:13:33] you could easily do something like that on a weekly basis too [22:17:46] legoktm: need cache busting too in that case [22:18:12] doesn't #time automatically lower the parser cache TTL? [22:18:23] idk, does it? [22:20:12] yes [22:20:12] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/ParserFunctions/+/master/includes/ExtParserFunctions.php#421 [22:20:26] I think [22:20:37] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/ParserFunctions/+/master/includes/ExtParserFunctions.php#502 [22:20:39] yeah, it does [22:48:59] thanks for your reply legoktm! that definitely points me in the right direction. I'll bring it up in the Scrum tomorrow. I'm still a bit lost, I'm sure it's straightforward and once I get it, it'll seem easy, but I don't have any experience in using Templates, or parser functions. I created a `MediaWiki:Ffeed-featured-page` and was able to reference the Template like so {{Today's featured article/January 2, 2019}}, but I [22:49:00] guess I need to read more about how to use parser functions, and also about the atom/rss feed and how to FeaturedFeeds on the homepage for example.
