Hello all. I use MediaWiki on my website at www.world-traveller.org, and recently upgraded from 1.4.x to 1.6.5. On the new version, I can't find the relevant code which puts the 'upload file' link in the toolbox. I'd like to remove the link, if possible. Does anyone know how to get rid of it?
Thanks very much,
Roger
If you don't allow uploads ($wgEnableUploads = false in LocalSettings.php), the link should be autmoatically hidden. If you want to restrict the uploads, use the new $wgGroupPermissions in LocalSettings.php ($wgGroupPermissions["user"]["upload"] = false, for example), however it won't hide the upload link - see http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6021.
If you want to allow uploads but you don't want the link in the toolbox to appear, I think you have to do that in includes/SkinTemplate.php, in the function SkinTemplate::buildNavUrls (search for it): remove the line "global $wgEnableUploads, $wgUploadNavigationUrl;", then remove the "if" block checks for $wgEnableUploads, and it should be hidden.

Fantastic - the line of code suggested in the bug report does exactly what I wanted.
Thanks very much!
