External script-generated images
by Sarunas Burdulis 22 Dec '06

Hello, Is there a way to embed (or enable embedding) of something that in raw html would work as: <a href="http://somesite.net/somepage.html> <img src=http://somesite.net/script?param> </a> where script?param outputs an image? Thank you, Sarunas

Transcluding special pages
by Andrew Stewart 22 Dec '06

22 Dec '06

I want to transclude the contents of a special page into a regular article. For example, the contents of Special:Version into the About page. I've attempted doing so by including {{Special:Version}} within the page, but this doesn't seem to work. Is this even possible somehow? -- Andrew Stewart Research Assistant, Genomics Team Navy Medical Research Center (NMRC) Biological Defense Research Directorate (BDRD) BDRD Annex 12300 Washington Avenue, 2nd Floor Rockville, MD 20852 email: stewarta(a)nmrc.navy.mil phone: 301-231-6700 Ext 270

Template(s) responsible for Categories?
by Martin G. 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

I have 3 problems which may be handled by one template i don't know yet: 1. I don't want that certain template (if it is handeled by one) to show up the alphabet letters when sorting the subcategories. I'd prefer them listen in continious rows like on Special:Allpages. 2. Special:Allpages: my pages have all very long names and i want Allpages to be listed in 2 columns only. 3. I want to get rid of the Articles message in certain categories some of them only include subcategories and will never include article pages. "Articles in category "Artist" There are 0 articles in this category." That may be solved by using top-level categories, but i couldn't find info on how to create such. thanks for any help :) _________________________________________________________________ Die neue MSN Suche Toolbar mit Windows-Desktopsuche.

my MediaWiki doesn't understand Umlauts
by Martin G. 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

when i search or try to add an article with the inputbox that includes Umlauts such as ä, ö, ü i get a blank page as result. when i use code %C3%A instead of ä e.g. in "Sven Väth" as "Sven V%C3%A4th" i get: Bad title The requested page title was invalid, empty, or an incorrectly linked inter-language or inter-wiki title. It may contain one more characters which cannot be used in titles. How can i fix that? I hope there is an easy fix for it so i can use the umlauts right in the box when searching or creating. :) cheers _________________________________________________________________ Sie suchen E-Mails, Dokumente oder Fotos?

I have the NewUserNotif, Newuserlog, ParserFunctions, and InputBox extensions installed. Was fine a minute ago. I simply re-uploaded newuserlog.php and the i81n file. -- Gary Kirk

Extension:RandomInclude
by Fernando Correia 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

I published the RandomInclude extension. It can include random texts on a page. It allows the random text list to be kept in a template, where all alternatives can be viewed. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RandomInclude

by Leon Kolchinsky 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Hello All, I have mediawiki installed with Hebrew interface, i.e. right to left direction in editor. Some of our wiki users asked me a question: How to make a single page in English with that "Hebrew style wiki" installation? Is there some rtl/ltr tag or command? How can I achieve that? Best Regards, Leon Kolchinsky

Uploading files
by Green, Chris 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

I've been able to enable uploading of files and set the $wgFileExtensions[] line in LocalSettings.php to enable me to upload pdf files. My problem is how to set this to enable different types of files to be uploaded e.g. pdf's and word docs and Powerpoint etc. Does anyone know the correct syntax for specifying multiple file extensions for files that can be uploaded.

Google Sitemap extension problem
by beachboy22＠verizon.net 20 Dec '06

20 Dec '06

Hello all, I recently installed a Google sitemap extension onto my MediaWiki install. It was advertised to add all the sites in my page to an XML file (sitemap.xml). However, upon submitting this sitemap file to Google, I receive the following error from Google. Your Sitemap does not appear to be in a supported format. Please ensure it meets our Sitemap guidelines and resubmit. Does anyone know why this is happening. Thanks!
