I am supposed to edit MediaWiki:Sidebar to change the sidebar, but I fail to
find it when logged in as WikiSysop. Where exactly do I find this page?
Regards,

I've looked at the manual -
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL
- and can't work out what to do next.
Here's what we have and want.
We have an intranet page which is to serve as a portal for a given customer:
http://cust.example.com/
This is to have a wiki associated with it, ideally at:
http://cust.example.com/wiki/
This is to have short URLs, e.g.:
http://cust.example.com/wiki/Main_Page
No other cruft is permissible in the URL.
Note that LOTS of other stuff may hang off cust.example.com, the
one-stop portal page for this customer. All the wiki stuff has to be
in /wiki or in /mw or whatever and NOT interfere with the top level.
How on earth to achieve this? So far I achieved a way that worked,
except cust.example.com redirected to the main page of the wiki.

Hi all,
I have a question regarding creating lists in wikimedia. I wonder if it
is possible to have multiline <pre></pre> elements inside your list,
without messing up the content inside the <pre>-tag or the list's
layout. I would be grateful for any pointers to more information on how
to incorporate multiline <pre>-elements into wikimedia-lists
Any multiline <pre></pre> element will not be rendered very nicely, as
is shown in this example:
# first item
# second item
#: <code><pre>one
multiline comment</pre></code>
# third item
will render as:
1. first item
2. second item
one
multiline comment
1. third item # list starts anew here.
Is there any way to contain the line-breaks in a <pre></pre> elements,
without messing up the list's layout/numbering?
thanks,
Bram
Hi, thanks for the answer. I ended up changing, in LocalSettings,
$wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['createaccount'] = false;
to = true.
Then had a student worker enter the names manually. At least he did
not have to log out after each one to create the next account. After
he was done, I changed 'createaccount' back to false.
I will look into creating accounts by email, but in this case we
wanted them ready to go, and we have a strong honor code here, which
seems to work most of the time.
I figured it could also be done by importing a delimited text file
with username and pw into MySQL somehow.
Appreciate the response,

Hello,
According to this webpage :
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fulltext_search_engines, more then 10
Full-text search engine are available for Mediawiki. My users would like
to search parts of words. For the moment, look for the word "foobar"
shows answers, not if I look for "foob" :-/
I just test Sphinx but I seems doesn't work better then the built-in
MySQL search engine
(http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SphinxSearch). I'm looking for
a simple full-text search engine to run on a minimalist LAMP server. I
would like to avoid Java & stuff like gcj.
What could be your advice?
Thanks,
Johan

Hallo, ich habe mediawiki neu installiert und wundere mich, dass die
Uhrzeit falsch angezeigt wird (eine Stunde zurück).
Die Serverzeit ist richtig eingestellt und ich finde keine configuration
settings zur Uhreinstellung (aber es müsste ja welche geben, oder?).
Kann mir da jemand helfen?
viele Grüße, Verena

The monobook didn't have an <img tag before you added it. It's not
really needed.
I have a wiki where all can read, but you need an account, and need
to log in, to edit. This is in version 1.5.4
Only the sysop can create accounts.
I have to add over a hundred different students, all with the same
initial password, with edit privileges, i.e.:
John Smith, pw Tools1
Deborah Jane, pw Tools1
Gary Neuros, pw Tools1
Up to now, I have added users by logging in as WikiSysop, then go to
Special Pages, create an account, and enter the new account.
However, I am then in that person's account, and have to log out
before logging in as WikiSysop again.
This can get tedious with 100 new accounts.
Is there any way to automate or batch-import a list of new users?

Is it possible to make $wgNoFollowLinks "selective"?
For example, I have a list of trusted websites, for which I wouldn't
like to add rel="nofollow".
I was thinking of something like:
$wgFollowDomains = "example.com|*.domain.tld"
And for these domains, MediaWiki would not add rel="nofollow" to the links.
Is it possible with the current version of MediaWiki, or, if not, is it
planned?

Hi,
I search in wikimedia help, but doc is too big; i think that why à didn't
find this info.
Now, anonym user can't edit my wiki. I autorise only "User" to edit wiki.
But, "User" can be registred even if then didn't give Mail.
I would like "User" must give mail and confirm there.
I already have vandalism.
i've this:
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
$wgEmailAuthentication = true;
What can i do?
best regard
