question about "Unused files"

Hi,

I have a question about "Unused files".

We build a business wiki with MediaWiki 1.81. We have created ~250
articles and link a lot of pdfs.

The syntax is: *[[:Datei:example.pdf|Example file]]

When I choose on "Special pages" the item "Unused files", all these
files are shown. When I look at the file usage,I read: "There are no pages
that link to this file."

I thougt, all these files should be listed, because they are linked on
several pages. Am I wrong?

Greetings from germany

Bertram

TableEdit row editing help

Mediawiki version 1.16, TableEdit extension 0.8.

I'm missing row editing feature when I try to edit a table.   I have the "Add data," "Save Table...," "Revert
Table to saved," and "Rotate table," but I need to be able to edit or delete rows.  Is this a feature I needed to
have enabled at install time, or is it due to a template apart from the install or update of TableEdit?

many thanks in advance.

please ignore: Re: TableEdit row editing help

This was my mistake in not having my browser window big enough to show the column at the far right, please
excuse the question.

Why MediaWiki is moving to Lua

Every Turing-complete domain-specific language *will* evolve into Brainfuck.

It's not that bad.

There are two ugly pieces:
* Having to use {{!}} everywhere instead of |
* You can't use a tag like
<defined>
{{!}} colspan="2" style="text-align:center;" {{!}}
[[image:{{{image}}}{{!}}300x200px{{!}}center]]
{{!}}-
</defined>
and make that block magically disappear if {{{image}}} wasn't defined.

enable uploads to mediawiki

hello list,

 I am attempting to enable file uploads to my mediawiki page. I have this setting enabled in my
LocalSettings.php config file:

  $wgEnableUploads  = true;

And in my php.ini file I have this setting:

 [root <at> ec2-107-22-232-226:/var/www/wiki] #grep file_uploads /etc/php.ini 
file_uploads = On

Also I've restarted apache after making these changes.

But when I go to edit a page my toolbox section does not include an upload option:

Toolbox

    What links here
    Related changes
    Special pages

I've attempted to follow the instructions I've found in this page:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads

I was just wondering what I may be doing wrong and how to correct the problem I'm having.

Thanks
tim

Separate page for advanced search using sphinx

Hi

I would like to create an advanced query page using sphinx, similar to this
http://www.nearby.org.uk/geograph/query-builder.php

The creator has generously provided the server side of the code:
http://svn.geograph.org.uk/svn/branches/british-isles/libs/geograph/sphinxwrapper.class.php

How do I do implement this on mediawiki?  I have no idea where to start if that someone could point me in a
general direction that would be fantastic.

Thank you in advance!

"mediawiki 1.18.0 file upload problem" thread resurrection

About two months ago the below thread started and it seemed to fizzle out.

http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2011-December/038440.html

I am experiencing the same problem and wanted to know if I missed 
something or if no further exploration occurred. A brief search of the 
bug tracking system did not seem to produce any open bug reports for 
this issue, but I figured I would check here first.

I will wait to hear any feedback as to the proper venue for any 
additional information I have observed. Thanks for your time and any help.
