Hello, Topic 1: This seems like the sort of question that could be immediately referred to documentation, FAQ's or letters in a forum, but I have just spent several hours fruitlessly seeking a solution. I hope someone might tell me how to import the Help files into my newly installed version of Mediawiki. The only thing I have been able to find on the meta site is a one- line suggestion to dump what appears to be the whole database, but even that--which surely is not the right answer--contained no suggestion as to what to do with it. There are a number of unanswered queries on the same question on the Help talk pages, too. Topic 2: Following the configuration instructions, I'm trying to make some changes in the Language.php file, such as changing "portal" to "- ", but they have no effect. I have cleared the cache, too. Any suggestions? Thank you for your help on questions that surely must have been asked already! B.
