Matt;
file sets? do you want to convert them to articles? Or, do you want to make
them available as attachments? I assume you are creating articles. I have a
need for the latter - taking external (non-mediawiki) content and
programmatically importing into our MW db. I'd also like the ability to add
content submitted via email. My thought is to massage the external content
into the XML format output by the export command and wrap that with a simple
HTTP request driver class/interface to feed the existing import
function/class. Has anyone else done something similar? If not I will tread
the uncharted waters and submit my findings.
Thanks,
Maurice Joseph

Since I have been the only one posting to my wiki and it is now ready
for public launch, I want to drop all the old revisions and page
histories.
How can I do this on 1.5? I emptied the revisions table and it deleted
all the pages.
Hello,
On numerous occasions, myself or one of my sw developers ends up
downloading massive file sets from our Subversion repositories in order to
upload them to MediaWiki. (Some might question the sanity of this--I've
been burned enough by repository destruction in various
source-code-management databases to learn that we always take broad tarball
"snapshots" at every major software release.)
This is major drain on time and bandwidth...
...but it need not be that way if we can figure out how to get local files
from the remote server (hosted via a dedicated hosting servers) to the
MediaWiki running on that server, all from the command line. (I suppose
one could X11/XWindows GUIs across the internet...but that seems rather
cumbersome and in many cases impractical...not to mention I have to go load
up all the X11 stuff on my server...ugh.)
I'm wondering if others have suggestions to use the MW UploadFile
mechanisms via a command-line interface, maybe like Lynx (if it's still
around) or something similar. I'm looking for specific command-line
examples if at all possible.
Also note that my MW server is a https-based one, hence I need to be able
to provide username and password for SSL over the command line as well.
Thanks for any help!

Hi all,
I set up a wiki 1.4.10 on a Fedora Core 4 server.
I enabled squid caching and Zend Php accelerator.
Now I have the following two problems.
1. The User Ip on the top right coner always is
127.0.0.1 instead of the real user's PC IP.
2. after the user edit a page and save that page,
anyone hit the link of that page and take directly to
the Edit page rather that the content of the page.
Any suggestions/
thanks
judi

I would like to show a list of users currently browsing the wiki. Is
there a way to achieve this? If not, can I at least show how many are
currently online?

I'm hosting in a server with a really convoluted name
(http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~sr352). But sometime back, I bought a domain name
(http://www.hindupedia.com).
Now, how do I tweak it so that all the links in the wiki point to
http://www.hindupedia.com/............ instead of
http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~sr352/............?
I think this is important not only for users, but also in search engines as they
index only the longer names now. I wish that they would index the URLs with the
proper domain name.
Please tell me how this can be done.
Thanks a lot,
Sooraj.
Thank you for that. It worked straight away . . . :-)

Good afternoon.

Here's how I did it:
Go to: skins -> common -> images
In that folder you'll find an image file called:
wiki.png
If you create your new logo, call it the same name
and upload it to the same place, it will replace
the default logo.
I hope that helps.
Best Wishes,

Hi all,
After looking through the manuals, and being a neophyte when it comes
to templates and CSS, I cannot figure out how to adjust the spacing
between paragraphs in my mediawiki site. Our articles tend to be
long, and I think that more space would be easier on the eye. How can
I put in more space between paragraphs?
Thanks,
David
I am trying to get the dynamic page list incorporated into the skin. The tags do
not seem to do anything when put directly into the skin=
<DPL>
parameters
</DPL>
instead of calling the extension, the parameters are displayed.
Is there a way to fix this?
