Hi, all,
I was trying to put the internal links to special pages with arguments. For
example, on my http://chinatravelguide.com/ctgwiki/Train_Stations_in_Anhuipage,
I want to place an internal link to a special page,
Special:CNTrainSearch?via=Anqing. But it seems
[[Special:CNTrainSearch?via=Anqing Anqing]] does not work.
I'm temporarily using external link, [
http://ChinaTravelGuide.com/ctgwiki/Special:CNTrainSearch?via=AnqingAnqing].
But would prefer to use an internal one. Does anyone know the right
syntax. I dug around for a while, but could not figure it out. Maybe I
should change my special page code to handle parameters?
Thanks for the help.

Teammates,
I am using MediaWiki v1.11.0.
When I go to this url:
http://sete-wiki/sete/index.php?title=Special:Listusers
and select a particular user's personal page, it hangs the wiki (cannot
load).
I do not know what part of the content is causing this, but does anyone
know how
to find the user page in the MySQL database, so that the erroneous
portion could
be deleted or something ?
Thank you,
Lori
Hi,
When I install and extension that is parse using s this way, everything
works fine
$wgParser->setHook( "websiteFrame", "websiteFrame" );
But if the extension looks like this does not work, do I need to istall
another extension I have mediawiki-1.11.0 .
function register_embed_document_handler() {
global $wgParser;
$wgParser->setHook( "embed_document", "embed_document_handler" );
}
thanks

I've gone Microsoft-free, and I rather like iWork as an Office work-
alike.
Keynote does a wonderful job reading PowerPoint files, and seems to me
much more intuitive. You can do more powerful stuff quicker -- and the
result doesn't look like built-in PowerPoint template. :-)
Numbers is weaker than Excel, but okay if you can do without stuff
like pivot tables. And this is Version 1.0. So I expect greater Excel
compatibility is on the horizon.
Pages goes beyond Word processing with page layout. Think of it as a
lean, mean version of Word combined with a lean, mean version of
InDesign. I'm not always happy with its .doc imports, thought, finding
SimpleText does a more faithful rendition, especially with tables.
Anyway, I'm an iWork fan. It costs more than Neooffice, but you're
worth it. :-)

I uploaded a set of icons to my wiki using the SpecialUploadLocal
extension. The target folder by default is the images folder of the
local wiki. I moved those uploaded (hash sorted) directories and image
files to a shared folder. (I have an upload.subdomain to serve the
images from that shared folder. I figured such an arrangement would
be useful for servicing future wikis. ) However, the Image: page for
each icon still has a link to the image path of the local wiki. How do
I update these links to reflect the new path? ($wgSharedPath, etc have
been set properly.)
rebuildImages.php in the maintenance folder didn't fix (or change)
anything for me. And imagetransfer.py of pywikipedia seems to only
move or copy images between wikis.
And how do I make these changes in bulk?
Thanks.
Simon,
I just wanted to pass on a thought about OpenOffice, with regard to
Mac users...
OpenOffice works quite well on Mac. Unfortunately, it runs in the X11
windowing environment. This environment is unknown to many if not
nearly all Mac users (I don't know any non-scientists that use it on
the Mac). Thankfully, its cousin, Neooffice, is a Mac-native suite.
Neooffice is extremely similar to OpenOffice, being explicitly based
on OpenOffice (its developers are former OpenOffice.org developers
who went independent to write a Mac-GUI based version of the software
on their "spare time"). In general, Neooffice has almost identical
functionally to OpenOffice.org though I cannot speak to whether or
not it is able to export wikitext as I have never attempted to use
Neooffice in this way.
You can direct Mac users to Neooffice's mediawiki-based site:
http://neowiki.neooffice.org/index.php/Main_Page
Cheers,
Rob

Hi MediaWiki Admins
I am searching for an WYSIWYG Editor with wikitext support. Ideal would
be cross-platform and open source.
Any recommendations?
cheers
Simon
