UserBase has a number of animated gifs - see some of the links from
http://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/HowTo/4.4 for examples. No special features
had to be enabled, and no special extensions installed. The gifs worked on
our old 1.14 setup, and work on our current 1.16 site. HTH

Anyone using Clickheat on their wiki? I'm having trouble getting it to
work.
I've installed the script in the wiki page using the <html> <addhmtl>
tags (which works), but no clicks are logged.
Can any please assist?
Thanks.
Regards,
Sarel

Hello,
I was successful with upgrading to Mediawiki ver. 16.0. However, I am
having an issue with FCKeditor producing a blank page.
Current Setup:
MediaWiki 1.16.0
PHP 5.1.16
MySQL 5.0.77
I include $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; to the LocalSetting.php file.
I upgraded the FCKeditorParser.body.php file, and now I get the
following error message when trying to access the wiki:
*Fatal error*: Class 'FCKeditorParserWrapper' not found in
*/appl/web/devwiki/public_www/mediawiki-1.16.0/extensions/FCKeditor/FCKeditorParser.body.php*
on line *3
*
Here is line 3 of FCKeditorParser.body.php:
class FCKeditorParser extends FCKeditorParserWrapper {
I have been looking for "FCKeditorParserWrapper.php".
Do you know where I can obtain this file, because I haven't had any success.
Thank you!
Hello all,
I was inspired by the happenings on the wikia.com site,
http://familypedia.wiki.com
I had written a while back about being able to pull in external content into
a mediawiki site. I was going to respond to that but could not find that
email. Anyway, I had thought early on with regard to mediawiki and the
semantic web that this was a very appropriate use for such technology.
There are so many resources out there for genealogy research... it
would help to integrate the information in some way. I don't know how much
of it is open source or open content. The big name that comes to mind is
Ancestry.com... of course they make money by selling subscriptions and so
they may not want to open up their content but has anyone heard of any
resource for information in this field that has made their data/information
available for a large global graph that the Semantic Web is?
I'm somewhat new to MW and SMW, so I hope my questions don't sound
too ignorant.
1) Is it difficult to copy some of the content from one wiki into a new
wiki that - that is to say copy some of the articles... an export of
articles and then an import elsewhere. I know MW lets one export and then
import, so could one export a whole collection of articles or category of
articles and then bring them into a new wiki?
2) Would there be a way to export the Semantic data as well? Forms,
annotations, etc?
3) Maybe some folks know more than I do about these things, such as the
reasons one might want to self-host their wiki, in addition to using
wikia.com
4) Similarly, would this create redundant or conflicting data or is there a
way around that? I guess one issue is about how open the data on wikia.com
is.
Thanks,
Bruce
The imageinfo query module can give you a thumbnail; pop up http
://en.wikipedia/w/api.php and pull up the online help entry for the
parameters.

I am upgrading to 1.15 (from 1.15.3, skipping 1.15.4) and getting an

any help is appreciated,.

Hi,
I am trying to install the mapping extension from Jeroen de Dauw and get
these errors when saving a page that has a {{#display_map:NAME}} written
in it:
:
*Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: No ending delimiter '/'
found in /var/www/vhosts/kgv.nl/httpdocs/wiki/includes/EditPage.php on
line 1086
*Fatal error: Call to undefined method Title::isSpecialPage() in
/var/www/vhosts/kgv.nl/httpdocs/wiki/extensions/Maps/includes/features/Maps_BaseMap.php
on line 98
Has anyone got an idea how to deal with them? I am using the latest
0.7.1 version

Before posting to this list, please read the MediaWiki FAQ[10]. Many common
questions are answered here. You may also search the list archives to see if
your question has been asked before.
Please try to ask your question in a way that enables people to answer you.

To post to the list, send mail to <mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>. This is a

your mail client, so that clients that understand threading can sort your

When creating a new thread, do not reply to an existing message and change the

people reading your mail. Instead, compose a new message for your post.
Messages posted to the list have the "Reply-To" header set to the mailing list,
which means that by default, replies will go to the entire list. If you are
posting a reply which is only interesting to the original poster, and not the
