Re: Can category hierarchy be adjusted?

You just have to change the category tags on the pages is all.

If you have 

Page One - [[Category: Baseball]]

and you have 

Category: Baseball with a tag on the page called [[Category: Sports]]

You would then find that "Baseball" is a subcategory of "Sports".

If you wanted to change the order around, you would have to 

change Page One to include [[Category: Sports]]

and changed Category: Sports to include [[Category: Baseball]]

so then "Sports" would be a subcategory of "Baseball".

  Can category hierarchy be adjusted?

  ie, if I make a "toplevel" category, can I change it to a "sub category"

can't access Special:Userlogin

hi,

 I moved a wiki (v 1.5.6) from an apache server running on windows xp to the following system:

 SUSE Linux Enterprise server 9
 Apache 2
 PHP 4.3

 Everything works perfectly except that I can't access the index.php/Special:Userlogin page, although  I
added it to the $wgWhitelistRead array:

 ****************************************
 # need to login to edit
 $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;
 $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;
 $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;

 # Pages anonymous (not-logged-in) users may see
 $wgWhitelistRead = array ("Main Page","Special:Userlogin","Wikipedia:Help");
 ********************************************
 
 Anybody could help? Does it have anything to do with cookies?

 Thanks

 Jul

Re: can't access Special:Userlogin

Maybe, just maybe, it's the Special:Userlogin title. There was a case 
last month where a guy had a similar problem. The solution was to 
specify that special page name in the localized format. So, if your wiki 
is in German (i.e. Deutch was selected during the installation), you 
should write Spezial:Userlogin instead of Special:Userlogin. This may 
have something to do with apache, however, I could be totally off. I 
hope this works.

Re: can't access Special:Userlogin

It doesn't seem to be the problem: I can access the Specialpages page with Special:Specialpages...

 Thanks anyway

Re: can't access Special:Userlogin

My Wiki does redirect index.php/Special:Userlogin to index.php/Spezial:Userlogin automaticaly.
Im running 
MediaWiki: 1.5.3 
PHP: 5.0.5 (apache2handler) 
MySQL: 5.0.15-nt 
On Windows Server 2003

Does your redirect not work?

Re: can't access Special:Userlogin

It does work, but stating the former pagename (Special:Userlogin) in 
LocalSettings.php doesn't seem to work. Only if you put the latter 
(Spezial:Userlogin) in $wgWhitelistRead array, will it work. At least 
that's what happened to me. That happened to other people as well (cf. 
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2006-February/010177.html 
& http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3902)

Re: can't access Special:Userlogin

My redirect works, and even by typing directly
 http://myip/mywiki/index.php/Special:Userlogin
 I go to a blank page...

 I've just copied everything (DB and php files) to another server (apache and mysql running on ubuntu) and it
works perfectly. It seems to be a problem specific to SUSE and its default installation of apache and
mysql... 
 I'll keep investigating...

 thanks

Revert Database from v1.5 to 1.4

I'm wondering if its at all possible to revert a Wiki database from a
1.5.x version to a 1.4.x? 

When I upgraded to 1.5 my server began to crash daily (it seems to start
spawning dozens of httpd processes which use up all memory quickly and
make the server not respond to any requests). While I'm not 100% sure
upgrading to 1.5 is the root cause, I'm just checking my options...if
its not possible, or very difficult to revert back to 1.4 I might as
well not consider it a possibility.

I did try just running a 1.4 Wiki with a 1.5 database but it doesn't
seem to like any page updated with the 1.5 Wiki. I'm fine if I have to
lose the history on any page modified with 1.5, I'm mainly concerned
with just getting the article texts.

I know the best solution would be to find and fix the root cause of the
crashes, but my time is limited and I have little experience debugging
things on Unix systems.

Thanks.

missing "enable e-mail from other users" check box in V 1.4.5

I use MediaWiki Version 1.4.5 and on the user
preferences page I don't see how to
enable other users to e-mail me. In wikipedia there is
a check box in the right column on the user
preferences page, whereas on my version of mediawiki I
can't find the check box anywhere.

http://wikiforgood.org/index.php?title=Special:Preferences

This is important because I want the users of my wiki
to be able to e-mail each other.

I tried submitting this e-mail the list once before
but I could not find a response, so I'm sorry if this
is a duplicate message, but I'm very eager to get some
input.

Thanks!
