Brion,
index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&action=edit
The full URL of the wiki is https://wiki.ce.gatech.edu/isg/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&action=...
Except you won't be able to access it because it's blocked by .htaccess and I can't give you access because of the sensitive nature of the content.
Here is what I did.
I made a full backup of the db. I made a copy of the wiki files.
I unpacked the tarball and did a complete install of the wiki. I got no errors during the install.
I moved the LocalSettings.php etc... Yada yada yada the same thing I've done for previous upgrades and wiki installs. (we have about 6 wikis running 1.5.8 that I've been maintaining and upgrading since version 1.4.x)
This page was created in 1.5.x (I don't remember exactly)
Everything is working except the navigation.

I just upgraded from 1.5.8 to 1.6.2 and now my sidebar navigation is not showing up correctly. In 1.5.8 it worked fine. When I go to the MediaWiki:Sidebar page the modified navigation shows up as it should be.
I have modified it and saved it (as sysop) yet it still has the default navigation.
What did you modify, exactly? URL please?
