Earlier: where can I define, in which
namespaces usually - preselected -
the searchengine should search. Can
i define something like global
seachinnamespaceArray?
Peter Blaise responds: This is a FAQ - can someone direct us to
where it is at, or add it to,
http://www,mediawiki.org/ ?
Is there a way to change the current, contemporaneous default
for ALL subsequent visitors, including registered and unregistered
visitors?
There are many places to define search behavior.
Someone else kindly offered in our archives a default that I now
use that includes everything for NEWLY registering users who register
AFTER these lines are inserted in LocalSettings.php - all previously
registered users must change their own preferences - this, by the way,
has the ability to set almost ALL subsequent newly registrating user
defaults (I haven't found a way to preselect searching in the namespace
"NS_LIST_REDIRECTS"!):
Add to LocalSettings.php:
//SET USER PREFERENCE DEFAULTS:
# Question - how to set default search to include "List
redirects" ?!?
# NS_LIST_REDIRECTS in following list causes blank wiki!
# anyway, carry on ...
# SEARCH: Choose the namespaces
