I've used cpanel to install mediawiki at kvmf.ca/wiki
I want to post an image and can't. I've uploaded the image to kvmf.ca/wiki/images and used code like this:
[[File:abc.jpg]]
expecting that the page would show the image at that point, but instead I get a link to a filename (abc.jpg). I've checked the syntax repeatedly and have changed the mode of the images folder to 777 hoping this would help but to no avail. I don't know what else to try or what (if any) diagnostics to try.
Ideas?
Dave
You need to increase $wgMaxImageArea.

Do you mean you put the file there via FTP or something? You need to use the Special:Upload page on the wiki for uploading files, or run maintenance/importImages.php afterwards if you have shell access, otherwise MediaWiki will not be aware that the image exists.
