Linking images to other pages (not to master image)?
by Ken McDonald 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

We'd like to have images that, when clicked, take the user to another page, rather than to the 'image master page' for that image. There doesn't seem to be an obvious way of doing this using image markup. Any ideas? Thanks, Ken

Unfortunately, my organization will not upgrade to PHP 5 (or some reason like that) I am stuck with mediawiki version 1.6.10. So, presumably, the importImages.php script became available later. Although I can not upgrade my version of mediawiki, can I get a copy of the importImages.php file and add it to my maintenance scripts? Would it be compatible? thanks, - rich (revansx) ---- Platonides <Platonides(a)gmail.com> wrote: > revansx wrote: > > folks, > > I've got a folder full of images I'd like to import/upload to my wiki.

IF Statements in InfoBoxes
by Tom M 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

Hi, I have the following code inside an infobox template: |- {{ #if: {{{district|}}} | ! District: | {{{district|}}} }} |- {{ #if: {{{owned|}}} | ! Owned By: | {{{owned|}}} }} When I use the template inside an article the District and Owned By headings do not display when they have no information (as expected), however when information is supplied the headers show but the information does not...Any ideas where I'm going wrong? Ultimately if information is provided e.g. owned= me then the info box should display 'Owned By: me' but instead it just shows 'Owned By: ' Thanks Tom

dumphtml.php doesn't create any output files
by j2k 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

Hi! I'm stuck with dumphtml.php. I want to create an offline version of our company wiki, but it's not working on any of our installation :S At first it give "PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at E:\PubHtml\wiki\maintenance\dumpHTML.php:119) in E:\PubHtml\wiki\includes\WebResponse.php on line 9" warnings, and the all produced html pages flow to console, none files created. I tried with the default path, and given path; with switches or without, no change. I searched the net, but I didn't find anything useful.. For the PHP warning, I checked that none of the PHP files have BOM, and no starting or trailing whitespaces before the first "<" and last ">". Our mediawiki server config: Windows XP SP2, MediaWiki 1.9.3, PHP: 5.2.1 (apache2handler), MySQL 5.0.37-community-nt. Thanks in advance, Akos Szabo

If/then
by Emanuel Nordrum 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

Are if/then statements enabled for use in templates in the latest version of MediaWiki, as they are in Wikipedia? It's getting to become a bit of a chore having tons of empty fields in my At a Glance lists, and I'm wondering if it's worth going through the hassle of having my MySQL databases updated so I can run the latest version of MediaWiki.

Hi there, Is that possible to use Multilanguage feature in single wiki project, or it is a "must" to have a multiple wiki projects installed for every language used? If yes, how do I do that? Just give me the link, where I can read (I've read through handbooks, in every place there is a manual to show how to enable Multilanguage linking between different projects. Best regards, Umidjon B.

I am on MediaWiki 1.6.3 and the site I got it from was for 1.8.2 - is this the problem? Is there any other way to get my wiki to recognize the imported pages?
