Hi,
I tried to add a link to our corporate intranet portal in the sidebar of mediawiki as described in the manual.
I edit the mediawiki:sidebar page and add a line
** http://www.example.com \ Portal to the page.
After saving the page I do not see the Portal link in the sidebar.
If I add a header like:
* Imprortant links
It is visible in the sidebar after saving the page.
We are also looking for solutions to add more content to the sidebar, like search boxes for our enterprise
search,google search and corporate people search engines.
Any suggestions?

I've noticed that a lot of work has been done recently on an "industrialization guide": http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Manual:Industrialization_guide I think pages like this are really useful. Over the past few years I've discovered extensions in a piecemeal fashion.... stumbling across LDAP Authentication or SimpleSecurity or Semantic Mediawiki/Forms, and wishing I had found them sooner. To have a single page targeted at enterprise use definitely makes things easier. However, I think we can go one better..... Why not a MediaWiki package/distribution targeted at enterprise use? It would include: * MediaWiki * Extensions that are useful for enterprise use * A default configuration suitable for enterprise use If this is already being done please point me in that direction.
