Thanks a ton guys, that worked for me for the edit pages.
But when accessing the Query Form pages or Solr Search pages (these
generally use the Special Pages for working which is embedded in the link,
again I am unable to do away with the index.php and title.
Any insight on this.
Thanks Again.

Hi all,
We've just landed a patch to the master branch of CentralAuth[0] that
helps avoid timing attacks with token comparisons. The Phabricator
task is T125290[1].
If you are are using CentralAuth (which is probably not many of you), please
update your installations with this patch.

I was trying to make my URLs free of any php file name like index.php. I
followed the ShortUrl help provided in the wiki documentation and the
normal pages are now void of any "title=" or "index.php", just as I wanted.
But the link again shows the older naive format (including index.php and
title=) when I am editing any existing page, or using a query form for
searching through the forms. The solr search also shows them.
What exactly should I do to prettify my "edit" and "search" URLs?
My site uses nginx.
Thanks in advance for the help.
My wiki is lacking the functionality to recover a username or password
using an email address. The installed version is 1.24.2.
I have noticed that v 1.26.2 has this functionality by default.
How can I enable this recovery function on v 1.24.2?
Thanks,
Dustin

Dear all,
I have a problem with updating mediawiki 1.18.1 to the current version
1.26.2. Since I have no access to the command line, I am using the web
browser instead.
The problem is that index.php in mw-config is read, but it is displayed
without styles. I am still able to select a language. But when I click
"continue", the next page is white. The procedure doesn't find an
existing installation, even though a Localsettings.php exists in the
root directory.
Please help.
Many thanks,
Andreas
