It's unlikely to be added by default, but could find a place in an
extension.

Re: Help importing abstract.xml

Dear All,

Sorry again. I already imported all backup and xml from
http://dumps.wikipedia.org/mywiki/ but the links are still not working. I
already used rebuildall.php in maintenance folder but I still can't open
the page. When I opened the page, the error is the post may be deleted and
blah blah blah. Is there anything that I need to do after importing data?

Best Regards,
Ko Min

What file(s) did you use and with which method did you import it?

Re: [MediaWiki-announce] MediaWiki 1.19.0 released

Hi

I just wanted to send a small thanks for "finally" solving the web upgrader
problem for us with hosting services and no shell access.

Upgrading from MediaWiki 1.17 to 1.19 worked like a dream even via the web
upgrader, in all previous versions this used to be (at least for me) a
lengthy technical nightmare of digging through misc articles and helpfiles
and then some trial and error on top of that, now I just had to make some
minor tweaks to the LocalSettings.php when advised by the upgrade process
and then everything was in place.  I'm still pleasantly surprised, almost
chocked even.

Or, in short, thanks :-)

Best regards

Mikael Rönnbäck

protect images and pdfs

I am running a semi-public Wiki where some pages are reserved for internal use (basically for copy-right
reasons). While I can restrict access to the respective wiki articles (using user groups and user
rights), the same seems not possible for pure image links (addressing the image, not the file page) or
pdf-links respectively. Is there a way to prohibit access to images and pdfs either?

Re: protect images and pdfs

Hi Bernhard,

I faced the same issue trying to protect images and pdfs. In my case, the entire wiki was private. but the urls
to images and pdfs (if one knew) were accessible to all. I tried many methods, but these two Location
directives in the apache virtual host config for my wiki solved the issue for me.

<Location "/<mywikiname>/Main_Page">
                AuthType Basic
                Require valid-user
</Location>
<Location "/<mywikiname>/images">
                AuthType Basic
                AuthGroupFile /path/to/mywiki-groups
                Require group <mygroup>
</Location>

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Poornima.

As Sysop, User right management problem for custom namespace when moving a page

Hello all.
Our problem is this: a user "U1", having permission for a namespace "N1", bellonging to a group "G1" and
having edit a page "N1:PAGE1" can not move a page from the custom namespace "N1" to a custom namespace "N2",
after we (as sysop) indicate across user right management, that this user "U1" is a member of the group "G2"
allowed to "play" in this custom namepace "N2".
When we go in user right management, checking "U1" rights, we see that a sentence indicates "U1" bellongs to
"G2", "G1", "user", "emailconfirmed", and to "autoconfirmed" groups. BUT: the boxes are not marked for
"G2" and "G1".

You will find bellow the code for our permissions and namespace settings.
What did we wrong ?
Thanks a lot for your help. We are blocked with this.

After update to 1.18.2 using a custom skin we get a js error 'mw is not defined'

Hi,

I'm maintaining a wiki[1] with a custom skin and since the update to
1.18.2 we miss the edit toolbar and search suggestions do not work
anymore. I presume this is due to javascript failing as we do get a
javascript error 'mw is not defined'. Can somebody tell me where I can
find more info on how to include Javascript in custom skins nowadays?

Btw the skin is quite old and probably needs more work to make it adhere
to the current MW standards. I've tried to find a document which lists
changes in how skins are being used in MW nowadays, but only found this
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Skinning which states it's outdated and
should not be used anymore. Is there more up-to-date information
available? Something along the lines of:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development

[1] http://http://beeldengeluidwiki.nl

Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance,

grtz

You need to adapt the skin to work with the ResourceLoader.
