Re: [Mediawiki-l] Subdomain for a forum in a MediaWiki install

Some more info on the problem... When I type the direct address of the forum (forum.mywiki.com/phpBB/index.php) it works but there are no images. If I type the location of an image into the address bar, "http://forum.mywiki.com/phpBB/templates/subSilver/images/folder_big.gif", I get the same error as I get below, a 404 Not Found error. I bet the issue is caused because I have the MediaWiki installed on the same server. Any other ideas?

Best way to add menu to sidebar
by Tim Ware 16 Dec '06

16 Dec '06

Running v1.8.2. What's the best way to add another sidebar module. I use the top one, renamed, and the search box. But I've commented out the Tools module. I want to add a new module with a title and then links. Also, if my wiki is set up to open external links in a new window, is there a way to have external links *not* open in a new window on a case-by-case basis? Thanks. Tim

Subdomain for a forum in a MediaWiki install
by beachboy22＠verizon.net 15 Dec '06

15 Dec '06

Hello all, I am new to hosting so please bear with me, thanks! I have mediawiki installed on a server with short URL's (mywiki.com/Main_Page). I want to have a forum running on the sub-domain forum.mywiki.com. Using cPanel I set this sub-domain up. cPanel created me a "forum" directory in my "public_html" folder in my server ("public_html" is the same folder that my Wiki is in). I created a quick "index.html" file in the "forum" folder to test this out. When I go to "forum.mywiki.com/index.html" I get a 404 "Not found" error. I am positive "index.html" exists in this directory. Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong? Thanks a lot! Philip B

insert page with same title from another namespace in all pages
by FxParlant 15 Dec '06

15 Dec '06

Hello, I need to insert the Head:My_Title in the My_Title page. But I want it for all pages (so the template idea doesn't seem to be a solution). What kind of code should I use, so that the Head:My_Title is inserted "as is" without any parsing (because it is a javascript)? Thank you for any help, or for pointing me to an extension doing just this. François

Re: [Mediawiki-l] Site mirror or copy

In a message dated 10/20/2006 5:00:46 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, mauro(a)carmo.info writes: Thanks Kasimir Gabert, Anyone could assure me that this would work? Or perhaps, there is another way I could set my phpMyAdmin to generate a db_domain with another name when I dump it. Thanks mauro. You can never be sure until you try. It sounds right to me. The dump likely includes database names from the database being dumped. Even if you change a name readily visible at the top of the dump, their could be other instances further down. "Find and replace" (ctrl + H in Windows) can be used to replace every instance of the original database name in only one operation.

Page title not displaying properly
by Joseph "Joey" C. Campana 15 Dec '06

15 Dec '06

The page title in our wiki is not displaying properly. The text appearing in the window title bar is different from what is saved in our MediaWiki:Pagetitle page. http://www.researchintelligentdesign.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Pagetitle I've tried to simply reinput and save the proper information, but to no avail. We are running MediaWiki: 1.6.8, with PHP: 4.4.4 (cgi) and MySQL: 4.1.21-standard-log. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated!

PageSecurity extension
by Fernando Correia 15 Dec '06

15 Dec '06

I have published the access control extension I have developed. It is named "PageSecurity extension". This extension was developed to fulfill the needs of the company I work for. It can enforce read and write protection for selected pages or for sets of pages. User access is controled by membership in user groups. The access rules are specified with named security defintions and applied to page sets through protection expressions. The extension seems to work but it can have security breaches. I have published it to hopefully have it reviewed by people more knowledgeable of MediaWiki. Any feedback will be appreciated. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PageSecurity
