I don't understand how this works with $wgLocalDatabases in order to set user rights on other wikis I operate. Is there a step-by-step guide and preequisites? Does the database username and password have to be the same on all? Does the Makesysop extension need to be installed on all wikis? Please help if you can.
Thanks.

It's a bit of a freaky hack, so it's not well documented. :)
Roughly...
* Database username and password should be the same. * Avoid using table prefixes, they probably would explode. * List all controllable database names in $wgLocalDatabases array. * If not all databases are on the same server, add entries to $wgAlternateMaster indicating which dbs are on which hosts. * Makesysop extension should be enabled at least available at a master location, but doesn't necessarily have to be everywhere.
Good luck!

OK, in wiki1 where Makesysop is installed and shares the DB username and password I have: $wgLocalDatabases = array('gkirk_mwSVN' => 'garykirk'); where gkirk_mwSVN is the name of the database of wiki2. On wiki1 at Special:Makesysop I type Test2@garykirk and get:
*User rights for "Test2@garykirk" could not be set. (Did you enter the name correctly?)*

The account you created during installation should already be a crat and can give permissions to anyone on the local wiki.

Only stewards can appoint stewards? That could be an issue. You might need to change something in LocalSettings.php.

I've just checked. The default seems to be to let crats do whatever they like. Have you set $wgAddGroups in LocalSettings.php? If so, you'll need to add steward to the array.

The Makesysop extension disables Special:Userrights for non-stewards. You need to grant yourself steward rights in advance via direct manipulation of the user_rights table in the database.

Ah. It should say that on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Makesysop
Can usernames be changed? I know users cannot be deleted and I do not want to do that, but we have a situation where the authentication mechanism is moving from local accounts created in the wiki to an external authentication mechanism, so, for example, user "joe" is user "joed" in the external authentication mechanism. Is there a way to change the user "joe" to "joed" in the wiki database? The page histories can show either user ID, that is not important. Also, I'll need to set all the user passwords to null. I suspect I'll need to do that through an SQL routine but if there is a better way...
Thanks in advance for any help or ideas...

Bureaucrats can remand users if you install the Renameuser extension from mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Renameuser Hope this helps, I don't know about passwords. Gary

The RenameUser extension is the "correct" method to rename user accounts and update all the various page histories, etc. You'd need to resort to a bit of manual SQL to reset the passwords, though.

Hello list,
I want to show a different page content depending on the login state of an user, i.e. similar to extension ParserFunctions {{#If <user is logged in> | content for logged in users | content for unknown users }}
Is there any possibility to determine from within a wiki page if an user is logged on or not?
If the user is logged in, I want to address this user with the real/login name.
I remember there's at least a solution for part 2 of my question. But I can't find it.
I'm using wikis with version 1.6.10, 1.9.x, 1.10.x.
Thanks for your help

@Jim what you propose is a php based solution but I'm a beginner in php programming and I'm looking for a wiki based solution without programming own php code if possible.
@Jean-Lou I took a look at your Extension:ParserPhase2, but I don't understand how to use it to solve my problem. Could you send me a short example. There's another problem too, this extention works with MW 1.10, 1.11, but I'm using some older wikis with version 1.6 (php4) and 1.9.x. Does this extentsion need php5 and did you try to implement it under older wiki versions?

Usage: {{#iflogged: Congratulations, you're a registered user.|You're anonymous. Go to create an account!}}
I also added #islogged to return the raw boolean value.
I think this is really what I want.
I added this 'extension' on test installations MW 1.8.2 and 1.11.0. Both wikis are installed on a windows host.
Calling the wikis results in the following php warning: Warning: array_slice() [function.array-slice]: The first argument should be an array in ...\languages\Language.php on line 1153 (for MW 1.11.0)
This warning occurs in function getMagic: function getMagic( &$mw ) { ... line 1153: $mw->mSynonyms = array_slice( $rawEntry, 1 ); }
Creating a test page with {{#iflogged: A | B }} the 'iflogged' function is not recognized but treated as normal text. Therefore it doesn't show the wanted result 'A' or 'B' but the raw page content '{{#iflogged: A | B }}'.
May be there's something missing in the code. Do you have further hints what's going wrong.

The magic words has to define still
$wgHooks['LanguageGetMagic'][] = 'wfIsLoggedFunctionsMagic';
function wfIsLoggedFunctionsMagic( &$magicWords, $langCode ) { $magicWords['iflogged'] = array(0,'iflogged'); $magicWords['islogged'] = array(0,'islogged'); return true; }
Now it works as desired.

?>
Usage: {{#iflogged: Congratulations, you're a registered user.|You're anonymous. Go to create an account!}}
I also added #islogged to return the raw boolean value.

OK, in wiki1 where Makesysop is installed and shares the DB username and password I have: $wgLocalDatabases = array('gkirk_mwSVN' => 'garykirk');
Wikis are identified by the database name.
Try: $wgLocalDatabases = array('gkirk_mwSVN');
where gkirk_mwSVN is the name of the database of wiki2. On wiki1 at Special:Makesysop I type Test2@garykirk and get:
*User rights for "Test2@garykirk" could not be set. (Did you enter the name correctly?)*
Test2@gkirk_mwSVN
That mixed case might give you trouble, too.
