[06:19:04] Would like to add information to data on Lew Farber. He was my great-uncle on my paternal mother's side. He had three other sisters besides my grandmother, Dora Farber Krasner. Lillian (died in Flu epidemic of 1919, Eva, and Mae) [14:28:41] Need some help. I have an if statement that is working in two places on a mediawiki page, so I copied it and gave it new parameters on the same page to do something else. And now that second if isn't working; is there a function call limit to parser functions on the page? I went from having 2 parser function if statements to having like 8 separate ones. [14:38:13] elmerg: There is a limit on expensive parser functions (eg #ifexist), but 8 calls is nowhere near the limit. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit [14:38:24] he just quit [14:38:26] 8) [14:38:41] oh well :) [14:50:41] FoxT: Depends if they set the limit very low ;P [14:51:27] Reedy: True. Or if they call templates that invoke more expensive calls. [15:33:31] is there a downside to only using html on wiki pages? [15:33:44] except for the links of course [15:35:37] roadie: There are some tags that are not allowe and escaped by the wiki parser [15:37:28] FoxT: thanks, yep I am just reading a page that shows the permitted tags. [15:39:51] I am starting to fill a wiki and pondering what is best for my case [15:45:41] Wiki code is more human-readable, html is not, unless you use some kind of WYSIWYG editor to avoid editing html directly [15:46:23] I hope its ok to ask this: How can I have 2 columns on a page like they have on the special pages or on this site: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Category:Modding ? [15:46:45] Vulpix: I want to use emacs for this [15:47:16] and agreed that the wiki code is easier to read, but I am the only one reading it ... [15:48:44] They're using templates, but it's basically a table with 2 columns: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/index.php?title=Category:Modding&action=edit [15:51:25] thank you Vulpix - I am a total noob - I managed to paint my wiki similar and its for a similar topic but I will have to learn a lot [15:51:37] https://wiki.crymod.org [15:52:00] I have to learn to use templates [15:52:50] wait - can I copy those templates? [15:52:56] !exporttemplates [15:52:56] To copy templates from Wikipedia, use Special:Export and check the "Include templates" option to get all the sub-templates, then upload the file with Special:Import on your wiki. You'll also likely have to install the ParserFunctions extension, Scribunto extension and install/enable HTML tidy. You also might need some CSS from Wikipedia's Common.css. You'll also need a lot of... [15:53:03] (yes) [15:54:04] thank you so much - as someone with no permissions on that site? [15:54:25] Depends on the site, but looks fine on that one [15:54:25] https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Special:Export [15:54:57] that is so nice of them - that wiki is excellent the way they did it [16:07:56] If anyone has a moment to take a peek at a CSS issue I'm having in VE edit mode? please see this topic on Mediawiki.org [16:07:57] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Uyptrppmdb1p05oq [16:24:04] revansx[m]: Question is why VE is showing the HTML tag in the first place. [20:16:28] FoxT: good question. [20:56:26] Will there be a way to create categories that don't exist with MassEditRegex? https://mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MassEditRegex [21:13:22] After editing and saving the page, I want the user to be directed to another page. I would like an url parameter to work for this, for instance, 'targetAfterSave=FooBar'. Is this currently available, and if not, then would a PHP extension be accepted to accomplish this task? For me this is useful as a part of a wizard: after saving a page the user is taken somewhere else with instructions for the next step(s). [21:18:16] Sveta: you can code a redirect on this hook https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/PageContentSaveComplete [21:19:39] nice, thanks [21:42:37] Can someone tell me why https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:RhinosF1/enforce.js has no effect [21:43:38] RhinosF1: looking [21:44:24] Any errors in f12 RhinosF1 [21:45:20] Zppix, That's my console https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/ke6IBwYS/console [21:45:31] on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tentaspina_sinister [21:45:41] It should hide the edit button [21:46:13] RhinosF1: youve done the usual clear cache right? [21:46:47] Yes, It should do auto but the page I used was completely random anyway [21:48:36] RhinosF1: your missing a semi colon at the end [21:48:45] I dont know if that is all the issue but that is one [21:49:13] Zppix, bawolff gave me the code. I just added the namespace numbers [21:49:57] bawolff2: around? See above [21:57:26] Zppix, bawolff2, see https://wm-bot.wmflabs.org/logs/%23wikimedia-tech/20190326.txt for log of when I had it made [22:03:24] Going now for the night.. Anyone with access has my permission to fix it so it enables across all namespaces except user: / User Talk: (I've not done the rest as I never use them) and hides the edit button or otherwise prevents editing
