When I try to install the wiki (version 1.20.2) on my website, it begins the
installer and says "Basic checks are performed to see if this environment is
suitable for MediaWiki installation. You should provide the results of these
checks if you need help during installation." Then it says PHP 5.3.15 is
installed. And that's it. I can't advance to the next step of the
installation process. Does anyone know what the problem is?

The file "INSTALL" says, "Decompress the MediaWiki installation archive
either on your server, or on your local machine and upload the directory
tree. Rename it from "mediawiki-1.x.x" to something nice, like "wiki,"
since it'll be in your URL."
Shouldn't that be "w" instead of "wiki"?
X-posted since this touches many areas.
Dear Wiki Gurus,
Generally speaking, I need something akin to a shopping cart to hold items the user chooses and which items can be accessed in forms later.
Specifically, on my SMW site, the items would be favorite pages a visitor needs to save for later by clicking a button "Add to favorites". The items must be saved in the user session (to support anons). Later, on a semantic form, a multi-valued input can be populated with all of the items (page names) in the user's basket. Additionally, the user would need to be able to see a page of all of their favorites and be allowed to clear the list if desired.
I think this functionality could be quite useful in the semantic world since it can be one more step towards making form input easier as well as just being a general basket of things for any use. The items can be pages or properties or property values or even query results. But, as a start, a basket of page names is all I require.
Are there any suggestions on what mix of stuff (extensions, widgets, hacks, etc.) to use to implement something like this?
Thank you,
Al
I set "$wgSend404Code = false;" in LocalSettings.php (Default value:true), then the issue has gone away.
Thank you very very much!
Steven

The best solution would probably be to move to a different host. If that's
not an option, there is a configuration setting that was added to work
around this issue: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSend404Code

How about just changing the text that shows up when you click a red link?
Surely, that's in Special:AllMessages somewhere...

:::: Traditional grass-based dairy farming was a highly egalitarian enterprise; anyone with initiative and a few acres could herd animals on any kind of land, and sell or barter the products to his neighbors. Societies that consume the products of pastured animals are much less likely to exhibit huge disparities in wealth compared to societies where the economics of food are based on grain. -- Ron Schmid

I've been experimenting with trying to implement some "fun" features on my wiki after having been inspired by some of the "quote generators" on RationalWiki, and I was wondering if there is any way to make a "story generator" on MediaWiki.
Specifically, I wanted to type a bunch of words into a series of boxes, click enter, and either a new page or a popup window would show the autogenerated story based on the forms I filled out.
The below website is basically what I'd like to create in MediaWiki:
http://www.world-english.org/instantstory.htm
I was wondering if this is possible, and if so, what and how would I need to go about creating it?
