Hi,
I am just starting using the Mediawiki, I would like to create an
initial website that will contain pre-created pages for users to modify
and expand. Is there an option to create pages in batch mode?
Any help will be extremely apriciated.
Many thanks
Leon
I installed the wiki but on the account is the php_ini disabled so i changed the files how written in the archiv and the instalation "work" but now if i visit the page i get
Warning: main(../includes/SiteConfiguration.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/export/www/hosting/taron/wiki/includes/DefaultSettings.php on line 27
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '../includes/SiteConfiguration.php' (include_path='.:') in /usr/export/www/hosting/taron/wiki/includes/DefaultSettings.php on line 27
But the file exist... what can i do?

No matter what I did, the package didn't work. Could you tell me how
or forward me to, step by step directions for installing WikiTeX and
its respective extensions? I've deleted the installation and removed
the inclusion from LocalSettings.php until I know what I'm really doing!

Hi,
I try to install mediawiki 1.5.3 on a Linux box. I selected language zh
After the installation, the main wiki page have four chinese selections on the top, such as mainland-simplified, tw-tradition, sg-simplified and hk-tradition. I would like to customize the selection to only two choices, simplified and tradition. In addtition, I would like to have the simplified chinese as default.
Would someone show me how to do this?
Thanks
Chris

Hi All,
Is it possible to have someone approve their email address first
before they are allowed in?
So pretty much what I had to do to get access to this mailinglist.
Thanx!!

All,
I have been working on upgrading from Mediawiki 1.4.11 to 1.5.3(versions
German, French, and Spanish) but have run into one issue. After running the
upgrade script I get these funny characters �. I have tried running this
partial-upgrader in upgrade1_5.php as it says in the RELEASE-NOTES, but
still does not fix the problem. Has anyone else run into the issue and know
of away to fix it?
Thanks in advance
Jared
Thanks Bob, this works pretty well

Normally you'd be able to do this with a file URL.
[file://server/folder1 the text to link from]
Notice how the Windows backslashes become slashes in a file URL.
This doesn't seem to work on MediaWiki. This is probably a good thing in
general since there's not much use for it outside of a shared
filesystem. It could also be a security risk.
Others might be able to tell you how to hack MediaWiki to get this to
work. If you find out, let me know. I'd be interested in doing this on
my wiki too.

Hi folks,
is there a possibility in MediaWiki to create an external link to a
windows network folder like
\\server\folder1 ????
It does not work using syntax of external or internal links ;-(
Hope you can help me !
Thanks

Here's what I did.
1) Disallow account creation.
2) Supply a form for people to request account creation.
3) Create the account for them, either as sysop, or by plugging the
user table.
4) In either case, the user then has to request a password.
Example at: http://www.EcoReality.org/wiki/Join
I realize this creates a bit more administrative work, but assuming
legit requests are low occurrence, it's less trouble than dealing
with TONS of illegitimate accounts, which the gurus here have
repeatedly warned us we should not delete!
In wikis I've been creating, I see about an 80% illegitimate account
creation rate.
