What does wg, in mediawiki configuration variable names, stand for? I will guess 'w' stands for 'wiki'. True? Then what does 'g' stand for? Thanks, Roger :-)

New subject: [Mediawiki-l] Sidebar page, where?

Hello, I read the "help Navigation Bar Page". It is mentioned I should edit: "MediaWiki:Sidebar page". On MediaWiki I got it. But where do I find this page or file on my system? I did the same search as on MediaWiki but with no result on my pages. I also searched through all files but couldn't find anything. I'm using a complete new installation of 1.5.7 rgds Harry Forstner

No, the correct Page is: "MediaWiki:Sidebar"

Hi Rob, thanks for your help

3. Enter "MediaWiki:Sidebar" in search box 4. Hit "Go"

Thats it. I had hit "search" and the page wasn't found. What is the difference between "Go" and "Search"? Now I get the englisch "Sidebar" page. What is the name of the german sidebar? I tried words like "Seitenleiste" but no help. regards Harry Forstner

Auch in einer deutschen Installation bleibts bei den englischen Bezeichnungen. Du schriebst allerdings, dass DU nach "MediaWiki:Sidebar page" gesucht hast. Probiere es nochmals, aber ohne das 'page'. Also NUR "MediaWiki:Sidebar" (ohne Anführungszeichen).
