I'm embarrassed to ask, but I can't seem to find in the docs why I can edit pages with plain text, and they display fine. But if I add == headings == or other formatting the page displays correctly in preview but when saved it seems like only the last page without formatting is displayed for that page.

This could be a caching issue (and the formatting irrelevant/coincidental). Have you tried doing a hard refresh in your browser (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:CACHE), and using an "action=purge" URL (like "action=edit")?

No, it's no a caching issue. I should have mentioned that (and that's it's plugged in, too ;) It's more likely something I missed setting up the wiki -- or some fundamental lack of knowledge about mediwike.

Here's the page:

http://www.cal-sailing.org/testwiki/index.php/Main_Page

Then look at the history. Click on the top item in the history list and you can see the main page is not really the most current version.

I added "?action=purge", and it seems to have purged to the correct version. Why it got stuck on that version in the first place, I've no idea, but it seems it *was* a caching issue (server side, not browser cache).

(Hope I have fewer typos this time...)

Server side as in Mediawiki? I assume it would have to be. Is that a problem with the version I'm running? Or just some cache settings that need to be modified?

I changed this to false:

$wgEnableParserCache = false;

Seems to have fixed it.

It's a low volume wiki, so anything else need changing?

fgrep Cache includes/DefaultSettings.php /** Cache shared metadata in memcached. Don't do this if the commons wiki is in a different memcached domain */ $wgCacheSharedUploads = true; $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_NONE; $wgMessageCacheType = CACHE_ANYTHING; $wgParserCacheType = CACHE_ANYTHING; $wgLinkCacheMemcached = false; # Not fully tested $wgMemCachedDebug = false; # Will be set to false in Setup.php, if the server isn't working $wgMemCachedServers = array( '127.0.0.1:11000' ); $wgMemCachedDebug = false; $wgMsgCacheExpiry = 86400; $wgEnableParserCache = false; $wgCachePages = true; $wgCacheEpoch = '20030516000000'; $wgUseFileCache = false; $wgFileCacheDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/cache"; * Cache timeout for the squid, will be sent as s-maxage (without ESI) or $wgUseWatchlistCache = false; $wgWLCacheTimeout = 3600; $wgFeedCacheTimeout = 60;

Any ideas about my timezone in the other message? ;)
