Hi,
Currently my Windows 7 installation of MediaWiki creates infoboxes that
look like http://imgur.com/g2Tlh4f when I'd like it look more like
http://imgur.com/s0UHES4. I'd especially like the blue title background.
How do I do this?
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
Good Evening,
I seem to have run into several problems on a wiki that I'm running. I have
beening having several issues with
http://database.obsidianfleet.net/wiki/index.php?title=Special:SpecialPages
.
Even thought I am using
error_reporting( -1 );
ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 );
The pages is still blank and I am running in a problem on how to bring it
back. If someone would be able to help me with this that would be great.
Another issue I am having is that after creating a User Account, the
account is suppose to be able to be made a User, however there is no way
for me to check the box since it seems to have disappeared and the user is
not auto-assigned to that group.
I would like to thank you all in advance for you help on these issues.

Hi,
I'd like to know how I can use Inkscape for SVG thumbnailing on my Windows
7 OS with a MediaWiki installation. Inkscape's files are located at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Inkscape. My efforts to date (mostly based on
Manual:$wgSVGConverters and other MediaWiki manual pages) have failed.
Currently my LocalSettings.php file's SVG-related settings are:
# Image Converter
> $wgSVGConverter = 'Inkscape';
> $wgSVGConverters = array(
> 'Inkscape' => '"$path/inkscape.exe" -z -w $width -f $input -e $output',
> );
> # Image converter path
> $wgSVGConverterPath = '/Program Files (x86)/Inkscape';
This gives the following error (which appears in the thumbnail's place):
> Error creating thumbnail: '""' is not recognized as an internal or
> external command,
> operable program or batch file.
The reason I'd like Inkscape as my SVG thumbnailer in particular is because
I sometimes use SVGs that are only correctly rendered by Inkscape (I know
that Wikia's thumbnailer (whatever it might be) frequently makes rendering
errors with these SVGs, e.g., see
http://health-and-medicine.wikia.com/wiki/File:Symptoms_of_Hodgkin_lymphoma…
and all the black spots that appear in it.
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
After upgrading to MW 1.24.1 (from 1.21), Special:NewPages now displays zero results. If I create a new page right now, it shows up in Special:NewPages, but anything before the upgrade is not listed.
New pages *are* listed on Special:RecentChanges with an "N" next to them, so clearly something in MediaWiki knows they're new.
Is there a way to refresh Special:NewPages? I tried maintenance/rebuildrecentchanges.php but it had no effect on Special:NewPages.
Thanks,
DanB

Not so. Ports below 1024 are reserved for well-known services. Your web browser uses an arbitrary open port with four or more digits. You can easily run both a server and a browser on the same machine.

Hi,
I'm presently running Ubuntu 14.04 32 bit and I installed MediaWiki 1.24.1
via bitnami and it worked fine until I restarted my PC and now, even with
my servers (Apache & MySQL, respectively) running (which I checked were
running by running the manager-linux.run file in the MediaWiki directory. I
even restarted them both manually) whenever I open up
http://localhost:8080/mediawiki/ I get a blank page. Going to
http://localhost:8080/ or http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin works fine and
these pages load perfectly.
Thanks for your time,

Hi,
I've installed the Jmol extension and I have noticed two major problems:
1. When uploading a pdb file at Special:Upload I receive the error:
> File extension ".pdb" does not match the detected MIME type of the file
> (text/plain).
Other chemical file extensions produce similar errors, including .sdf,
.cml, etc. Even though I have added:
> $wgFileExtensions = array( 'doc', 'docx', 'xls', 'xlsx', 'mpp', 'pdf',
> 'ppt', 'tiff', 'bmp', 'pptx', 'ps', 'odt', 'ods', 'odp', 'odg'
> , 'ogg', 'sdf', 'mol', 'pdb', 'xyz', 'mol2', 'svg', 'cml'
> );
to LocalSettings.php
2. Whenever I add <jmolpdb></jmolpdb> to an article (any article, even my
sandbox, i.e., User:Fuse809/sandbox), <jmolPdb></jmolPdb> or other Jmol
tags <jmolFile></jmolFile> and click "Save page" I'm left at a blank page
with the URL of
http://localhost:8080/mediawiki/index.php?title=PAGENAME&action=submit
(where PAGENAME is the page's name).
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
Hi,
I'm running a Wiki on Wikia (I have asked a question on the community
forums [http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:789971], some six days
ago, with no reply, if you're wondering if that would be a better place
to ask it) and I've love to be able to add a drop-down menu to
monobook's sidebar, which I know is possible (see this screenshot of
another Wikia wiki which has this drop-down menu
http://community.wikia.com/wiki/File:Layton_Wiki,_drop-down_menu.png).
Does anyone in this mailing list know how to do this? Please keep in
mind I am a noob when it comes to programming so please, just give me
simple, step-by-step, instructions on how to do this. I do have
administrative privileges on the Wiki in question, so I can edit pages
in the MediaWiki namespace, if need be.
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
