$wgDBtransactions gets set to true if using InnoDB tables. Is there
an advantage to using InnoDB tables?
The disadvantage is that with MySQL there is a file, ibdata1, that
seems to grow endlessly if InnoDB tables are used. See
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=1341
We're wondering if we should just convert everything to MyISAM. Any
thoughts?

Hello,
I'd like to modify the edition buttons (the buttons you have above the
edition frame when you modify a page), to remove the date from the
signature button, and keep only the name.
It works manually when removing one of the '~' from the signature added
(the button adds --~~~~), so I'm trying to find where the javascript for
the buttons comes from.

Hi all,
I've created some custom namespaced on one of my wikis, Botwiki
(previously known as pywikipedia).
I've put these lines in my LocalSettings.php file:
- ---
#Custom namespaces
$wgExtraNamespaces =
array(100 => "Manual",
101 => "Manual talk",
102 => "Python",
103 => "Python talk",
104 => "Php",
105 => "Php talk",
106 => "Perl",
107 => "Perl talk",
108 => "AWB",
109 => "AWB talk",
110 => "IRC",
111 => "IRC talk",
112 => "Other",
113 => "Other talk"
);
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 100;
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 102;
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 104;
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 106;
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 108;
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 110;
$wgContentNamespaces[] = 112;
- ---
However, I have a big problem: when I go to a page in one of these new
namespaces (not the discussion, the main ones), for example
http://botwiki.sno.cc/wiki/Perl:Copyright_Violation_Bot , I found the
red link to the discussion page. It's right, as there is no discussion
page for that article. But if you click on it, it brings you to
http://botwiki.sno.cc/w/index.php?title=Perl_talk:Copyright_Violation_Bot&a…
correct, of course. But have a look of the article and discussion tabs:
they are both red! The first, "article", leads to
http://botwiki.sno.cc/w/index.php?title=Perl_talk:Copyright_Violation_Bot&a…
when it should lead to
http://botwiki.sno.cc/wiki/Perl:Copyright_Violation_Bot and the second,
"discussion", leads to
http://botwiki.sno.cc/w/index.php?title=Talk:Perl_talk:Copyright_Violation_…
, when it should lead to
http://botwiki.sno.cc/w/index.php?title=Perl_talk:Copyright_Violation_Bot&a…
.
It's the first time I deal with custom namespaces :-( but I have some
ideas of what it can be. Can the problem be with the
$wgContentNamespaces settings? So it detects everything as ns0? (don't
think so).
Or can it be the fact that I haven't used an underscore in the
$wgExtraNamespaces definition?

Thanks for the answer.
I just tested, and it only works if I disable the Extension:UsabilityInitiative in $IP/LocalSettings.php
#require_once("$IP/extensions/UsabilityInitiative/Vector/Vector.php");
Do you know something about this bug and how to fix it?

Hello,
Looking at INSTALL it seems we are still supporting PHP version 5.1
which is 5 years old in a couple of weeks. This is getting old and
prevents developers from using some new features.
Ideally we could raise it to 5.3 to get Namespace support, closures but
that might be to early since most webhost probably still use 5.2.x.
Would it be possible to consider raising the requirement to at least
5.2.0 ? This would give us native JSON support and most probably the
filter extension enabled by default. The later can be used to speed up
the input validation.
cheers,

I am searching for an extension that shows the developments of hits on my wiki comparable to, for instance, [statcounter.com]. User came from, search queries, etc, would also be good to know. So far, I only found Extension:Usage Statistics, which produces strange output on my Wiki and is moreover unpleasant to handle. Any suggestions?
Thx
Bernhard
PS: For the moment I have installed statcounter.com, which requires some loading time, however, since it is loading an external JS file. There should be a more elegant solution since the data are there, aren't they?

Greetings MediaWiki hackers!
I am pleased to announce the upcoming MediaWiki Hack-A-Ton in Washington, DC.
As you are all aware, every year in April our good friends at
Wikimedia Deutschland
host the annual "MediaWiki Developers Meetup" in Berlin. At that
event, the program
is focused on demonstrations, workshops and small group discussions. To
complement this, we're planning the DC meetup to be focused solely on hacking,
bugfixing and getting down and dirty with the code.
We're scheduling this for October 22nd-24th in Washington, DC. Some of
the details
haven't been ironed out yet, but will be announced over the coming
days as it is.
So clear your calendars, and keep your eyes on MediaWiki.org[1] and the mailing
lists for more information.
Some travel assistance may be available for those coming a long way. I've also
been told there will be swag of some sort for attendees :)
-Chad

Hi,
On my french wiki i have the following tagline system message :
{{#if:{{NAMESPACE}}||« {{PAGENAME}} » défini et expliqué aux enfants
par les enfants.}}
(which means : "[Name of article]] defined and explained to children
by children")
Ok, this is fine. But the problem is that every single quote (') is
converted to '
Example : http://fr.wikimini.org/wiki/Armel_le_Cl%C3%A9ac%27h
I've noticed this problem on other french wikis.
Any idea or maybe a solution ?
Thank you for your help
Laurent
I want to comment out couple of lines of code in the file
/var/lib/mediawiki/includes/specialupload.php file. Here are the lines:
//if( $this->detectScript ( $tmpfile, $mime, $extension ) ) {
// return new WikiErrorMsg( 'uploadscripted' );
//}
Now I know that it is not a good idea to modify the core mediawiki files.
What is the correct way to do this then?
I sent this out about a week ago, but I'm still looking for a response.
Is there a way I can keep uploaded images hidden from certain usergroups?
I have created a namespace on my wiki that is viewable only to certain usergroups. The goal of this namespace is to have a place to create articles, so that I can time their release at which time I move the pages to the main namespace.
So far this works well, except with images, which are of course in the special File namespace. Perhaps if there was an extension that allowed me to set the permissions of images.
