Hi, all,
First post--please don't hurt me. :)
I installed MediaWiki a couple of months ago to begin using as an intranet for about 80
people in an academic library environment. At the time, the idea was to only have a
portion of the intranet be a wiki. Now, I'm sold, and I want to make the wiki the
environment for the whole intranet. Question: how do I move the wiki files from
/siterootfolder/wiki/ to just having the wiki files be the site root? Can I just dump them
into the site root folder, or would that break stuff, including the existing articles? :)
Part of my motivation for doing this is shortening URLs even more:
http://hostname/wiki/My_Article_Title
http://hostname/My_Article_Title
I feel like if the intranet is contained entirely within the wiki, we don't need the
extra /wiki/ in the URL.
Does MediaWiki work okay installed in the site root folder? Oh, and of course, there is
already content in the wiki...
Thanks in advance for your help,
Nina
but
it's not recommended, as the wiki will catch everything, including
requests for robots.txt favicon.ico the wiki files...
MediaWiki works, but you may end up with files not available, wiki
articles boscured by files...
