by Nancy Dailey 23 Jul '07

I have no problem uploading files but I get automatically logged off once the upload is complete. Is there a setting I need to change? I am running version 1.8. Thank you. Nancy Dailey

WYSIWYG support
by Umair Imam 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hello, My Question is, If MediaWiki does not support any WYSIWYG editor, then would it be not hard for editors to post their material using this Wiki ? How does a lame user fnid his way around MediaWiki's Syntax ? There has to be some other alternative. I read on Wikipedia : *"* <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki>* Media Wiki has a partial, (kind of a special MediaWiki 1.5.3 experimental version **EnotifWiki*<http://www.enotifwiki.org/> * + **FCKeditor* <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FCKeditor>* )support of **WYSIWYG page editing* <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG_editor>*"* ** Can someone guide me as why WYSIWYG was not included in Mediawiki and still is not ? What alternative do i have if my requirement is strongly focused on a wiki supporting WYSIWYG . -- Regards Umair ** ** ** **

MediaWiki 1.11.0 release pushed back
by Brion Vibber 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Just a notification of a schedule shift: Since there's still some pretty heavy development activity going on, I'm going to go ahead and delay the 1.11.0 release until mid-August, after the Wikimania conference. This'll give us a chance to iron out the new upload improvements and other little goodies still going on. We're definitely interested in feedback from the 1.10.1 point release as far as installer compatibility -- if there are any problems we'll want to know to make sure 1.11.0 fixes them. -- brion vibber (brion @ wikimedia.org)

Sorry, I'm actually running 1.10.1. Josh -----Original Message----- From: mediawiki-l-bounces(a)lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Boyd, Josh Sent: Monday, July 23, 2007 9:38 AM To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list Subject: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki 1.10.0 -> "You have not specified a validuser name" I just installed MediaWiki 1.10.0 last week on a new Ubuntu 6.06 LTS server running Apache 2.0.55, PHP 5.1.6, mySQL 5.0.24a-Debian_9ubuntu2-log. Everything was working fine last week and this weekend until Sunday, when it became impossible for any users to login, including WikiSysop. The following error message comes up: Login error: You have not specified a valid user name. This happened to me before on an old box, so I got a new box and did a new server install on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Downloading content of a MediaWiki?
by Kelly Jones 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

How do I download the entire current text content (no images, no page histories) of a MediaWiki that I don't own/administer? I know about Special:Export, but that requires a list of specific pages and doesn't accept "*" as a wild card. I could combine Special:Allpages and Special:Export with a script or something somehow, but is there a better way? -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.

restyling article content
by Maurizio Vitale 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

Is it possible to overload methods in a user defined skin in order to restyle elements which appear in the article content? I'm trying to get buttons and textfields to match the rest of my skin and need to put an additional <span> element in certain links [like the section [edit] link]. Otherwise I'm willing to change the code for mediawiki itself [but for the section [edit] link for now I haven't been able to even locate where it is, pointers appreciated] Thanks for any suggestion. Best regards, Maurizio

by Linus Chu 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

Hello, I want to modify my page layout so that an article are divided into sections, each with a heading that can't be modified (like "main article," "main points" and "sources"). Each article section should then have an "edit" tab. What is the best way to accomplish this? I have been trying to do this myself and looking everywhere but can't seem to find and answer. any help appreciated! Linus --------------------------------- Be a better Globetrotter.
