Hi all :)
We want to show a siteNotice in our wiki running MediaWiki 1.3.8 (with security updates to 1.3.9).siteNotice is "activated" by CSS stylesheets and MediaWiki:sitenotice. Unfortunately there is not notice on the pages :( I added $wgSiteNotice = "Our notice" to Setup.php and the notice was shown (wrong place in the articles but it was there :))
Any ideas and / or hints?
Thanks and kind regards, Hauke

The site notice has always been activated by setting the $wgSiteNotice variable.
There seems to be some _other_ thing called "siteNotice" that you're thinking of in addition. I think this was added as a hack on the live Wikipedia sites. If so, it should be in the REL1_3A branch of the code in CVS, but I'm not sure exactly where you need to look.
