[Mediawiki-l] Breadcrumb feature

[Gordon Adel]

Thanks for the advice, I've created the table, but how do you then tell
the wiki to display the breadcrumbs?

 

Kind Regards,

 

Adel

The problem is that the bread crumb is looking for the CUR table, and it

isn't used/doesn't exist in later MW versions.
 
Rather than modify the BC extension, I just create the CUR table for
wikis I 
host using a script and some SQL text. Works great.
 
mysql -uuser -ppass dbname < createcur.sql
 
Here's the createcur.sql text:
 
CREATE TABLE `cur` (
  `cur_id` int(8) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `cur_namespace` tinyint(2) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_title` varchar(255) character set latin1 collate latin1_bin NOT
NULL 
default '',
  `cur_text` mediumtext NOT NULL,
  `cur_comment` tinyblob NOT NULL,
  `cur_user` int(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_user_text` varchar(255) character set latin1 collate latin1_bin
NOT 
NULL default '',
  `cur_timestamp` varchar(14) character set latin1 collate latin1_bin
NOT 
NULL default '',
  `cur_restrictions` tinyblob NOT NULL,
  `cur_counter` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_is_redirect` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_minor_edit` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_is_new` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_random` double unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `cur_touched` varchar(14) character set latin1 collate latin1_bin NOT
NULL 
default '',
  `inverse_timestamp` varchar(14) character set latin1 collate
latin1_bin 
NOT NULL default '',
  UNIQUE KEY `cur_id` (`cur_id`),
  KEY `cur_namespace` (`cur_namespace`),
  KEY `cur_title` (`cur_title`(20)),
  KEY `cur_timestamp` (`cur_timestamp`),
  KEY `cur_random` (`cur_random`),
  KEY `name_title_timestamp` 
(`cur_namespace`,`cur_title`,`inverse_timestamp`),
  KEY `user_timestamp` (`cur_user`,`inverse_timestamp`),
  KEY `usertext_timestamp` (`cur_user_text`,`inverse_timestamp`),
  KEY `namespace_redirect_timestamp` 
(`cur_namespace`,`cur_is_redirect`,`cur_timestamp`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 PACK_KEYS=1;
