Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for :)

Ah, some other parts of the LocalSettings.php should be made dependant on the $db_lang in my solution, like the upload directory. Sorry about that... and don't forget to point me to a better solution if there is one :D

Cheers,

I hope you are not referring to my message "Mediawiki as a CMS." (I mean, what I did there was a hack, and though it worked for my (en|es).wikipedia mirror, I wouldn't exactly recommend it).

Still, if you are referring to my hack, here it is:

I installed a mediawiki in, for instance, /var/www/sites/wiki and pointed the en.wikipedia and the es.wikipedia virtualhosts to that folder.

On my localsettings.php,

==============

(...)

...

================

And that seems to work. (the ifs and the $db_lang variable were added by me). There are some problems with the maintenance scripts in this setup (they obviously don't define the _SERVER variable so they don't load the configuration properly so I have to work around that)

But given my 0 expertise with mediawiki, I'm sure there is a better way to do it :D

Cheers,

Zarrabeitia.

Someone on here was talking about how to run multiple wikis using the same wiki directory, I have a vague idea of how this could be done (using a index.php file with exactly the same contents but with a different name). But I don't know how I could set up the local settings file. When the person said about it I think he used an if statement but I don't know how to form one of those which has more than two possibilities.

Thanks,
