I'm have been unsucessful at adding a item to the navigation toolbar. I tried to follow the instructions found here
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_FAQ#How_do_I_change_the_contents_of _the_navigation_toolbar.3F)
but the new link shows up as <Juno> and link's url in the status bar says "--error:_link_target_missing--". This is what my $wgNavigationLinks array in LocalSettings.php looks like:
$wgNavigationLinks = array ( array( 'text'=>'mainpage' , 'href'=>'mainpage' ), array( 'text'=>'Juno' , 'href'=>'Juno' ), array( 'text'=>'currentevents' , 'href'=>'currentevents-url' ), array( 'text'=>'recentchanges' , 'href'=>'recentchanges-url' ), array( 'text'=>'help' , 'href'=>'helppage' ), array( 'text'=>'sitesupport' , 'href'=>'sitesupport-url' ), );
I've confirmed that I do indeed have a page at http://tux/wiki/index.php?Juno (tux is the server on our intranet) so I assume that I'm mis-reading the instructions or something. I tried adding an absolute URL with no luck either. Perhapse I created the page wrong? I just edited the main page and added [[Juno]], saved the page, then clicked on the red Juno link and then edited that page and save it. Anyway, I must have missed a step or something, can someone help me get this working?
Thanks for your time!
You need to go to 'special pages' > 'all system messages' and create entry's matching 'Juno'
Lookup the entry's for one of the others links to find out how it works.

I've confirmed that I do indeed have a page at http://tux/wiki/index.php?Juno
Put the target page title into this page: http://tux/wiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Juno
