Thanks Karsten

Interface administrator makes sense. I got it to work yesterday by loging in as the Mediawiki account (which is in all right groups) instead of my own. 

Thanks,

Bruno.

Hi all,

This is probably more of a MediaWiki question, but since it is directly
related to Foreground, maybe one of you has run into the same issue?

I just installed mediawiki 1.33, and Foreground 2.2.1 I want to change the
color of the title bar, so I go to
http://<my_site>/index.php/MediaWiki:Foreground.css

But I get

There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title
<http://wiki.lrose.net/index.php/Special:Search/Foreground.css> in other
pages, or search the related logs
<http://wiki.lrose.net/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=MediaWiki:Foreground.css>,
but you do not have permission to create this page.

I added myself to Administrators (I was able to edit MediaWiki:Sidebar for
example), but no luck with Foreground.css. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Bruno.

Hi Bruno,

it appears that you managed to create the Foreground.css page [0]. I am
not absolutely sure but since MW 1.32 you may need to be interface
administrator to change such pages.

Cheers, Karsten
