I would suggest to first upgrade MediaWiki to MW 1.27 and deal with adding further extensions like Semantic MediaWiki etc. to it in a second step.
OK, that's what I was thinking too. I seem to recall seeing a bundled-up MediaWiki+Semantic extension; is that really no different than just installing the semantic extension on top of an existing MW installation?
If you are using shared hosting when it might be a bit more complicated to install Semantic MediaWiki since it is best installed with Composer.
Yes, it's a shared hosting setup, but I do have shell access. Reading on Composer, it looks like it installs everything into subdirectories in my directories and doesn't require sudo access. Is that sufficient just to have shell access or does Composer require sudo rights?
Thanks for the pointers.
