MediaWiki 1.8.0 released
by Brion Vibber 10 Oct '06

10 Oct '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 October 10, 2006 This is the quarterly release snapshot for Fall 2006. While the code has been running on Wikipedia for some time, installation and upgrade bits may be less well tested. Bug fix releases may follow in the coming days or weeks. MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept "ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia. Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a year from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature development happen will be made on the development trunk and appear in the next quarterly release. Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can obtain it from source control: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_SVN == Configuration changes == * $wgUseETag, to enable/disable sending of HTTP ETag headers (default: disabled) * $wgLegalTitleChars now includes '+' by default for better compatibility with importing data dumps from Wikipedia * $wgDefaultUserOptions now includes all default option settings instead of only overrides. == Major new features == * (bug 7098) Add an option to disable/enable sending of HTTP ETag headers, as it seems to result in broken behaviour in combination with Squid 2.6 (disabled by default). * (bug 550) Allow blocks on anonymous users only. * (bug 6420) Render thumbnails for DJVU images, support multipage DJVU display on image pages. Added new 'page=' thumbnail option to select a page from a multipage djvu for thumbnail generation. * Full Postgres support is now enabled. It requires version 8.1 or better, and needs to have both plpgsql and tsearch2 already installed. * (bug 6386) fix grammatical errors in danish naming of talk namespaces.

Configuring CAPTCHA with FancyCaptcha.php
by Ewen Cumming 10 Oct '06

10 Oct '06

Hi, I've been attempting to configure Captcha on my Wiki (1.6.3) using FancyCaptcha. It works fine with just the ConfirmEdit extension although I needed to change some code in the ceSetup function so it wouldn't display as Chinese (I think it's Chinese anyway). Although when I try and use FancyCaptcha it won't display the image. I followed these instructions http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ConfirmEdit_extension. I've created the images although when I load the create account page it only shows the text: As a protection against automated spam, you'll need to type in the words that appear in this image to register an account: (What is this?) and a input box. The HTML code looks like: <div class='captcha'><p>As a protection against automated spam, you'll need to type in the words that appear in this image to register an account:<br /> (<a href="/wiki-sb/index.php/Special:Captcha/help" title="Special:Captcha/help">What is this?</a>) </p><p><img src="/wiki-sb/index.php?title=Special:Captcha/image&wpCaptchaId=1779701830" width="182" height="71" alt="" /></p> <input type="hidden" name="wpCaptchaId" id="wpCaptchaId" value="1779701830" /><p><input name="wpCaptchaWord" id="wpCaptchaWord" tabindex="1" /></p> </div> I've also noticed that the 'What is this?' link is also broken, is this normal by default and it needs to be manually created? Or should it already exist? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ewen

Hi MiSchn, ist only possible to use MySQL or Postgres by default. If want to use MS-SQL or MDE you have to code this on your own - that may be a lot of work. Which Files? "includes/Database*.php" may be a good starting point ...

Bonjour, En fait je souhaite juste remplacer l'image headbg.jpg par ma bannière, et descendre les onglets et le cadre principal afin que ma bannière soit en haut et complètement visible. Ce que je souhaiterais serait de mettre le cadre principal à la même hauteur que le cadre navigation. Merci. Loïc BERTRON

Wiki Anfänger
by Newsletter 10 Oct '06

10 Oct '06

Hi Liste, ich bin ein "Frischling" was Wiki's angeht und habe da ein paar Fragen an euch. Habe die Ehre bei uns in der Firma ein Wiki aufzubauen. Allerdings habe ich da auch einige Vorschriften und Features zu beachten. Wie ihr euch sicher denken könnt würde ich am liebsten das WikiPedia abbilden. Nur da fangen meine Probleme schon an. Leider unterstützt WikiPedia leider keine MS-SQL bzw. MSDE Anbindung. Dies ist jedoch eine Voraussetzung für dieses Wiki. Welche Datei bzw. Dateien muss ich anpassen, dass auch MS-SQL bzw. MSDE unterstützt werden? Oder gibt es schon ein MOD, der dies unterstützt? Bin in der Richtung leider nicht wirklich auf dem laufenden. Hoffe auf eure Hilfe Gruss MiSchn
