Folks,
When I save an edit to a page (or create a new page), the wiki (1.7.1,
php5, apache 1.3.37, Windows 2000 Pro) I get a server timed out error.
However, the page actually saves and can be viewed on a reload.
Thoughts?
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knew of any graphing tools written for
Mediawiki. I am not looking for a graphing extension, I'm after
something that analyses edits made over time, and changes, and can
display them graphically over a timeline. I remember seeing someone
had done some research on it, but cannot seem to find it now.
Kind regards,
Alex

Hi, I have three questions.
Q 1) I've added an RSS parser to my extensions library for some of my
Wikis (MediaWiki ver. 1.6.8). Some of my sites I have set up can only be
accessed either from a specific IP addresses or through a password to the
directory. I am using the RSS extension and Magpie to display external
feeds within my wiki using the tags <rss></rss> but have not been able to
display feeds from our IP authenticated or password protected blogs. My
blogs and sites that are open work fine. Is there a way to display content
from either IP authenticated areas OR password protected areas using the
RSS parser and Magpie.
Q 2) Has anyone written a calendar program that integrates with MediaWiki?
Something that I could drop into my extensions library? PMWiki.org has a
PMCalendar in their Cookboox and says that it may be compatible with other
Wikis. Have through about giving it a shot unless there's something
better.
Q 3) In MediaWiki:Sidebar, I have divided the navigation bar into two
areas e.g., *main navigation and *quick links. So, on the left sidebar, I
get two boxes for organizing my links. When I change my default Skin to
the Cologne Blue (or any other skin), though, only my *main navigation
box/links appear. My *quick links box/links disappear. Is there a way to
keep this persistent even if you use other skins?
Thank you, Karen
Hi,
I'm using:
MediaWiki 1.7.1
Postgresql-8.1.4
Gentoo Linux on Sparc Ultra2
I'm getting this error when running importDump.php from
the command line:
DB connection error: No database connection
DB connection error: No database connection
DB connection error: No database connection
DB connection error: No database connection
How do I connect the php script to the wiki database? Is
there a man page or other documentation on importDump.php
I've missed?

Hi,
I am tring to edit the monobook skin to my needs. I need help in altering the position of the Edit Links in my mediawiki page to the bottom. As its done in http://en.opensuse.org/Welcome_to_openSUSE.org website.
I have checked the following link where its given, how to duplicate the Edit Links tabs, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:User_style
topic: Duplicate edit links at the bottom of the content area.
And I tried with the js and css given, its working fine. Two edit link tabs were appearing on my mediawiki page. Instead I want only one "edit links" to be displayed at the bottom of the content area.
Can any one tell me how I can do this please.
I dont know whether this is the right place to post this question or not. Please excuse me if this is the wrong place and direct me to the right mailing list please
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
May I ask again: how do I regain rights to edit special pages like the
sidebar?
What happens is: I submit the changes (clicking "save"), and get this
message:
"Remember that this is only a preview, and has not yet been saved!"
I try to submit changes again, but the message keeps reappearing--it won't
let me save changes.
See attached (colors reduced to save file size).
Thanks,

That warning means "you're editing a protected page, so be careful" -
you aren't being prevented from editing, just advised against doing
anything drastic.
It's used, e.g. on Wikipedia, to tell administrators not to edit
protected pages during content wars, etc.

Hi,
I've configured my mediawiki in Esperanto, but I've noticed that some
expressions (eg: navigation, community portal, edit, privacy policy,
disclaimers, Login required, You have to login to edit this page) still
appears in English, although they've been translated in the language
files (LanguageEo.php, MessagesEo.php) and in eo.wikipedia.org.
What's wrong with my installation?
Thanks for any help,
Nino
Im trying to do LDAP authentication for MediWiki. I've created class
where I have implemented such methods as setting the connection to
LDAP and all authentication. I've also created a .php file where Im
making a new instance of that class. Im gathering variables
$v_usr = $_POST["login"];
$v_pswd = $_POST["pass"];
setting connection parametrees, checking if user exist in LDAP, his
password...(All authentication). Ive also created a sample FORM in
html, and everything is working superb.
The only problem is how to adapt my solution to MediaWiki.
Good day,
I am running the following
MediaWiki: 1.5.8
PHP: 4.3.9 (cgi)
MySQL: 5.0.19-standard-log
Although I am logged in as a user with sysop-level priviliges, I get this
message when trying to edit the sidebar
(domain.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&action=submit)
"WARNING: This page has been locked so that only users with sysop
privileges can edit it. Be sure you are following the protected page
guidelines."
I have tried mwusers forum and looking through the FAQs, but no luck. I
can supply the relevant contents of localsettings.php if that will help.
Also, I would like to prevent registration of new users, and block those
not logged in from editing pages.
Please advise, thanks.
