I just threw together a simple tag extension to embed a twitter live stream search widget from
http://twitter.com/about/resources/widgets/widget_search
in a wiki page. It just takes the following parameters from $input:
title=<title>
subject=<subject>
query=<query>
These get dropped into a <script> that is returned. It works, but now I'm wondering what I should do to sanitize the values of title, subject, and query. I don't want to just use In the js, the values are all inside single quotes. I was thinking that I would use strip_tags combined with substituting single quotes with '
preg_replace('/\W/', '', $t)
would disallow hashtags and @'s, right?

Hello listmates,
How do I make it so that no one gets to become a user unless they are
cleared by an administrator of the MW installation?
Thanks.
Boris.
Hello,
I would like to include special signs in my new 1.19 Mediawiki
installation, but they are showing not right. I have 200 *.doc files which
need to be indexed all into one MW Installation.
http://s14.directupload.net/images/120508/ooantyz5.jpg
So How can realize, that the signs are getting included aswell?
Your help is highly appreciated
I have been getting this error for the last few days when I try to
download an extension from Mediawiki. Since other downloads are working
OK I am wondering if there is a problem with the server. Linux system.

Volunteer Marcin Cieslak (saper) is doing the great service of leading a
Git and Gerrit tutorial on May 8th 19:00 UTC. It will be 1-1.5 hours.
If you intend to come, please fill out this poll so saper knows how many
people are coming and what they already know.

http://doodle.com/r?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftimeanddate.com%2Fworldclock%2Ffixedti…
To participate, you'll need to:
* get developer access for Git/Gerrit/Wikimedia Labs
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_access
* install a SIP client ("Blink and CSipSimple for Android are
recommended and tested (with HD audio); I'll provide SIP dial-in")
* install vncviewer
* ensure you can ssh from a terminal
Marcin will cover:
Basics:
setting up Git
submitting a patch
commenting on a patch in Gerrit
merging a patch in Gerrit
enough Git internals not to get lost
Branching:
local branch, making, working & pushing
remote branch & git-review to that remote branch
Troubleshooting:
cherrypick changes between branches
amending (rebase vs multiple commit)
squashing work from a branch into a commit and pushing it
resolve merge conflicts
Thanks, Marcin!

which is copied directly from wikipedia, and which works perfectly in my
wikipedia sandbox, all I get at my own wiki is (in red):
Template:Ifsubst<http://www.phaust.dk/wiki/index.php?title=Template:Ifsubst&action=edit&redl…>
We are using Mediawiki 1.17.0, if that makes any difference. I've tried
searching for various things on the mediawiki-wiki, but it all seems to be
standard commands?
I hope some one can clear it up :)

Hello.
I try to implement my own authorization scheme - connect MediaWiki to
the user database of my other site.
When someone is logged into my portal, and he has an account in
MediaWiki, I want him to be logged into MediaWiki.
As a first step to achieve this, I wanted to do an autologin of
Pmuszynski. This is my function attaced to UserLoadFromSession hook:
function pmUserAuth($user, &$result) {
$user = User::NewFromName('Pmuszynski');
$id = User::idFromName('Pmuszynski');
$user->setId( $id );
$user->loadfromId();
wfSetupSession();
$user->setCookies();
$user->setToken();
$user->saveSettings();
$user->saveToCache() ;
$result = true;
return true;
};
But I'm getting following error on entering Wiki:
Warning: array_merge(): Argument #1 is not an array in
/wiki/includes/User.php on line 2298 Warning: array_unique() expects
parameter 1 to be array, null given in /wiki/includes/User.php on line
2298 Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in
/wiki/includes/User.php on line 3472 Warning: Invalid argument supplied
for foreach() in /wiki/includes/User.php on line 3481 MediaWiki internal
error.
What am I missing?
Thanks for any help :-)

Hello all.
Our problem is this: a user "U1", having permission for a namespace "N1", bellonging to a group "G1" and having edit a page "N1:PAGE1" can not move a page from the custom namespace "N1" to a custom namespace "N2", after we (as sysop) indicate across user right management, that this user "U1" is a member of the group "G2" allowed to "play" in this custom namepace "N2".
When we go in user right management, checking "U1" rights, we see that a sentence indicates "U1" bellongs to "G2", "G1", "user", "emailconfirmed", and to "autoconfirmed" groups. BUT: the boxes are not marked for "G2" and "G1".
You will find bellow the code for our permissions and namespace settings.
What did we wrong ?
Thanks a lot for your help. We are blocked with this.
