[Mediawiki-l] RE: How to remove copyright checkbox on Special:Upload ?

Thanks Francis, but that doesn't seem to work.  We're using MediaWiki 1.3.9
- do we need to use the 1.4 beta to make this work?  Also, you mean the
Browser cache or do I need to run a maintenance task on MediaWiki itself?

Just so we're clear - I'm talking about the checkbox to the left of the (by
default) message "I affirm that the copyright holder of this file agrees to
license it under the terms of the ...".  I know where to change this
message, but can't seem to get rid of the checkbox.

Regards,

al.

Its in the mwiki/LocalSettings.cfg file.  Around the bottom of the
file.  Change the following to 'false' and refresh your cache.

$wgEnableCreativeCommonsRdf = false;
