Hi there,
I've recently been given control of a wiki which I believe is set up as a
wiki family for different languages. The default wiki can be found at
http://wiki.magicjudges.org/en/w (and other languages are
http://wiki.magicjudges.org/XX/w, with XX being various language codes).
I am both bureaucrat and sysop on the English wiki (and see the appropriate
entries in en_user_groups table). We have a shared database, but from what
I can tell not shared tables for most things, as there are tables with
every language prefix. The language specific user tables only have the
SysOp user in. The language specific user_groups table has the groups for
the SysOp, WikiOp, and two previous wiki admins.
What I am trying to work out is how to make group permissions apply to all
the wikis in the family. I have manually added rows to a language specific
user_groups table (in this case, cs_user_groups), but when I access the
http://wiki.magicjudges.org/cs/w/Special:UserRights, I am being told I
don't have permissions (like it's just seeing me as a normal user).
What am I missing beyond adding these group permissions in the user_group
table for each language?
I am running MediaWiki 1.24.1, PHP 5.6.14 (php-fpm), and MariaDB 5.5.41.
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance that can be provided.
