Hi again,
I can't find information on this feature. It seems like it is implemented,
but I can't find it.
On the user preferences page it says:
*Email (optional): Enables people to contact you through the website without
you having to reveal your email address to them, and it can be used to send
you a new password if you forget it.
When I click on a user, their corresponding User:Page shows up. Where can I
email them using the wiki interface?
Thank you,
Graeme.
(using Mediawiki 1.4.2)
I can't get this quite right. I have "www.mediaanthropology.net" as a add-on
of "www.johnnorvell.net" pointing to files in /public_html/mediaanthropology.
The wiki is in /public_html/mediaanthropology/wiki. I can get the wiki to
appear normally when I access it as
"www.johnnorvell.net/mediaanthropology/wiki" and have the following
LocalSettings/php lines:
$IP = "/home/johnnorv/public_html/mediaanthropology/wiki";
ini_set( "include_path", ".:$IP:$IP/includes:$IP/languages" );
require_once( "includes/DefaultSettings.php" );
[...]
$wgScriptPath = "/wiki";
but when accessing it as "www.mediaanthropology.net/wiki," which I would
prefer, I see only the unformatted output of the index page.
Following some advice on a similar issue here some months ago, I added:
$wgServer = "http://www.mediaanthropology.net";
When I do this, accessing it either way just gets the static page. Any ideas
about what I should try? Thanks in advance...

I'd like to add a special character box to the Edit page in my wiki as
one can find on several wikipedia.
Does someone know how to add it?
Thanks

Is it possible to do a redirect such as the following?
#REDIRECT [[{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}]]
For example I'm trying redirect the page Today to "May 26 2005" in this
case. All I'm getting is
Today
1. REDIRECT May 26 2005
It may be entirely not possible to use variables in redirects, but I thought
I would check. I can't find anything about this specific case in the Meta.
Thanks!
I had an odd problem with an article today... when I tried to navigate to it using a local link, instead of displaying the article, I got the dialog "Unknown file type" with options to open or save.
Trying the shotgun approach, I navigated to the article by typing the URL in the address window of the browser. I was able to see the article. I clicked the "edit" tab and saved it without changing. The problem then went away.
Does anyone know what happened?
I just filed a bug (#2250) on article validation, based on
test.leuksman.com behaviour.
1. Magnus, is this a useful thing to do? Should a tracking bug for the 1.5
release version be created?
2. Brion, you've mentioned you'd prefer the feature to be an extension -
should bugs presently be filed under MediaWiki or under MediaWiki
Extensions?
3. Anything else to make bug filing as useful as possible?
(apart from learning enough PHP myself, of course)

Hi,
I'm still fairly new to media wiki, but I couldn't
find this information....
I would like to
1. protect the article (that is easy)
2. allow non admins to edit the discussion (that is
easy)
but.....
instead of allowing them to click the "edit" on
the discussion page, actually want to click the "+"
beside the "edit" - as I'd like each new
comment/discussion to be in it's own section - this
kind of prevents someone from erasing someone elses
comments.... is this possible? and more importantly,
for a subset of pages only?
If that is possible, then my followup question is, can
the user signature automatically be appended to the
comment when saving? I already have turned on the
option that the user must be logged in, but as these
comments on these specific pages might only be read
every six months, it would be useful in our intranet
application to have some form of user traceability
(not foolproof traceability, but just enough to figure
out in our small organization who it was so we could
speak to them in person for more details). because I
picture a lot of non wiki experts and people not
putting on their user signature by comments.
thanks (and apologies if I missed something in the
documentation)

Hi -
I'm running MediaWiki 1.3.11 at redmonk.com/wiki and am having some
escalating spam issues, as Ubermoose told me would. I've attempted to
install the SpamBlacklist Extension and followed the relatively simple
instructions, but am getting an error which hasn't turned up either in
Google or the archives. If anybody has a notion what I did wrong, I'd
appreciate the tip.
On Save, getting the following:
Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in
~/wiki/extensions/SpamBlacklist/SpamBlacklist_body.php on line 65
Thx.
