For my wiki-farm I've been using this technique for clean URLs with
Apache:
.htaccess
Options FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php/title=$1 [L,QSA]
LocalSettings.php
$wgScriptPath = "/wiki";
$wgArticlePath = "/$1";
Same as detailed here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL#.htaccess_2
After upgrading to 1.11 viewing the pages still work, but when I
attempt to edit a page it insists on creating and editing a new page
called "Index.php".
Any ideas?
A disclaimer was added to the Plexcel plugin page that reads (in part):
"MediaWiki was not written to provide per-page access restrictions,
and almost all hacks or patches promising to add them will likely have
flaws somewhere"
I would like to add a similar disclaimer to our documention but I
would like to better understand the particular failure scenarios. Can
someone provide an example?
Currently we just do a caseless wildcard comparison on the title (e.g.
'Employee_Performance_*'). I suppose there are alternative ways to
retreive page data that do not use the title of the page?
Thanks,
Mike
We are trying to put captions below images and reduce them at the
same time in MediaWiki.
We can live with or without a frame.
However, we don't want the little button showing that links to the
full size image.
For example, as in Example 7 here
http://nutmeg.conncoll.edu/wiki/index.php/Images_Help
But without the little boxes link, as in Example 4 (but this image is
not resized, it's full size)
We would rather resize in MediaWiki and not before uploading.
We tried everything, but ran out of ideas, I think I hit all the on-
line help
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Extended_image_syntaxhttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Images
etc, etc...
Is this possible and if so how? Thanking anyone for help.

Hi All,
In previous releases it was possible to do authentication under HTTPS
and then redirect the client to HTTP with a Location header as
described here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Configuration_tips_and_tricks#HTTPS_on_…
But it seems with 1.11 something has changed as the session is
destroyed when flipping back to HTTP. In fact, the session isn't
initialized at all for unauthenticated users. Is that by design? Is
there an option to change this behavior?
Without being able maintain the session while transitioning from HTTPS
to HTTP theres no way to use the login form securely short of simply
using HTTPS all the time.
To reproduce, login under HTTPS. Then go to HTTP and you should see
that you're no longer logged in.
Thanks,
Mike
Hi,
Wikipedia has a Tagalog localization (tl.wikipedia.org). However,
when I install Mediawiki on my own server, I can't find Tagalog in
the list. Likewise, if I choose "My Preferences" from English
Wikipedia is not in the list of languages. Where can I get this
special Tagalog localization?
Best regards,
Richard
Hi,
When using PdfExport, this extension user a hook called
MonoBookTemplateToolboxEnd to include the pdflink in the toolboox
(list of links on the left).
Using it on my wiki, doesn't render the pdf link. Changing the skin
to monobook it does.
Checking the hooks list it describes the MonoBookTemplateToolboxEnd
hook as 'Called by Monobook skin after...'.
Does this hook only run when using the Monobook skin ? Is there a
similar hook that does the same thing using a skin with other name ?
Does PdfExport work in other skins ?
Thanks.
