You can easily set up MediaWiki so that anonymous users can only see
the front page and nothing else, and then control logins. Lots of
Wikimedia private wikis are set up that way (e.g.
http://internal.wikimedia.org/). Note that anyone can see what's
listed in the sidebar, even if they can't load the pages.
I know one MediaWiki that has a .htaccess that you have to get through
to even load the front page. Not sure how to hook that to their wiki
login.

Thank you very much Brion :)
This is actually working
urldecode("%D7%A2%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%93 %D7%A8%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%99")
May be it's time to update mediawiki's howto here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access
and replace
urldecode("%D7%A2%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%93_%D7%A8%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%99")
with
urldecode("%D7%A2%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%93 %D7%A8%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%99")

This is not a variable, but did you try

?

Hello,
I recently installed the SelectCategoryTagCloud extension:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SelectCategoryTagCloud
It's a great extension that makes it easier for users to add category tags
to pages when they edit them.
One way it does this is through AJAX auto-completion. As you type in the
category name it shows you a list of possible completions that start with
what you have typed. It has two issues for me though:
1) It doesn't work very well with Firefox. (It works fine with IE and
Safari.)
2) The auto-completion is awkward. You can't use the keyboard to select any
of them. You move the mouse to the completion you want and then click it.
It would be nice to use the keyboard to pick the completion you want.
I would enhance this but I am not an AJAX or even a Javascript person. I
did get an improvement in Firefox (see the extension's talk page).
Is there anyone out there who is AJAX savvy who would be interested in
extending this extension?
Thanks in advance,
Dave C.
Hi,
just for fun, I wanted to install my wiki off-line on a laptop. It works
except for the images.
Opening an article, the software does not find the images:
...images/d/de/imagename.jpg...: failed to open stream...
Well, of course the directories d/de below images do not exist. To my
understanding those belong to the cache system of my life wiki. Therefore I
did not copy them to the off-line version.
I tried to set $wgCacheEpoch, $wgThumbnailEpoch, $wgUseFileCache and others
to solve the problem - without success.
How can I persuade the software to use the image in the images-directory
instead?
Thanks in advance, Uod

Hi,
Did you mean
urldecode("%D7%A2%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%93%20%D7%A8%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%99")
instead of
urldecode("%D7%A2%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%93_%D7%A8%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%99") ?

Leon
