[01:04:50] Can someone help me with a DB query... I want to know who is watching wiki pages but hasn't edited in the last 2 years, ordered by the most watches [01:05:32] I have this query: but it times out in 30 seconds [01:05:36] SELECT wl_user user, u.user_name, count(*) watches, STR_TO_DATE(MAX(rev_timestamp),'%Y%m%d%H%i%s') 'latest edit' [01:05:37] from watchlist w left join user u ON u.user_id = w.wl_user INNER JOIN revision r ON u.user_id = r.rev_user [01:05:37] WHERE 'latest edit' < (DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 2 YEAR)) [01:05:37] group by w.wl_user [01:05:37] ORDER BY watches desc; [01:07:02] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/FtSpw6JXGd/ [04:18:53] Hello -- I am trying to upgrade an old version of mediawiki to version 1.33.1 -- In the old version of the wiki that i am upgrading, the previous admin used pwauth to authenticate/validate user login and password. The wiki was configured so that anyone could read, however you needed to authenticate to be able to write/edit. I have tried many of [04:18:54] the LDAP authentication extensions and have not had success. I was wondering if anyone might know of a way to invoke the same functionality in the latest version. Thanks! [04:21:37] The login to edit but everyone can read aspect is separate from the auth plugin part [04:21:46] !wg GroupPermissions [04:21:46] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgGroupPermissions [04:25:14] Thanks Brian - I will try installing the Auth plugin again -- i think i got a 500 error last time i tried to install it. I will also look at the manual for group permissions. Really appreciate the help! Thanks [04:25:52] AuthPlugin is the old system, so that part probably won't work with modern mediawiki [04:26:19] Although i think there is still a compatibility shim maybe [04:26:42] That is what i had difficulty finding. [04:29:58] Yeah, AuthPlugin back compatibility was removed in 3f717984c13b671 (MediaWiki 1.33) [04:30:15] The new thing is called auth manager [04:30:18] !authmanager [04:30:18] There is no such key, you probably want to try: !AuthManager, [04:30:24] !AuthManager [04:30:24] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:SessionManager_and_AuthManager [04:30:37] You will probably have to find an extension designed to work with the new system [04:31:32] Thanks -- I'll give that a try again. I found it a little difficult to understand as I am really new to this. [04:43:50] Hi -- I am going to do some more searching ... Not sure how to get this to work. [11:08:54] Hello, i'm experiencing an error which looks a lot like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Issue_with_new_Firefox_9.0.1_/_Left_Navigation_box_display_UNDER_content [11:09:23] The navigation bar appears to me way too at the bottom : https://i.imgur.com/ZsVxwBx.png [11:09:49] But i don't use firefox, i use chrome, and i also get the same results on opera. [11:10:06] Any similar behavior reported recently ? [11:30:02] in case anyone's interested, here's how you find users who haven't edited in two years having watchlist greater than 100 items https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/FGskpDSy9C/ [14:01:25] Technical Advice IRC meeting starting in 60 minutes in channel #wikimedia-tech, hosts: - all questions welcome, more infos: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_Advice_IRC_Meeting [14:51:09] Technical Advice IRC meeting starting in 10 minutes in channel #wikimedia-tech, hosts: @Lucas_WMDE - all questions welcome, more infos: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_Advice_IRC_Meeting [17:29:04] Hello - I was wondering if there might be someone who has set up authentication similar to pwauth? I have an old version 1.23 of mediawiki which we are trying to upgrade and i am trying to configure functionality whereby users must authenticate against our ldap before being able to edit pages. [18:06:55] hns1: there was an LDAPAuthentication extension, but it's unmaintained and does not work well post 1.27 [18:07:19] there's https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LDAP_hub although it looks a little scary [18:11:00] although if you are looking for a pwauth replacement then I think that's https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Auth_remoteuser ?
