−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
{{MW 1.9|and after}}
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:301-->
 
−
For example, to remove the Discussion (talk) page tab on all wikipages, on the [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] page add:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang="css">
 
−
#ca-talk { display:none!important; }

−

===How do I remove the "Talk for this IP" link at the top right (e.g. when <tvar|1>{{ll|Manual:$wgDisableAnonTalk|$wgDisableAnonTalk}}</> is true)?=== <!--T:309-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:679-->
 
−
One option is to hide the link using the following CSS in the wiki page ''MediaWiki:Common.css'' in your wiki:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang="css">
 
−
#p-personal #pt-anonuserpage {
 
−
    display: none;
 
−
}
 
−
</syntaxhighlight>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:680-->
 
−
Another option is, inside your LocalSettings.php file, to use the PersonalUrls hook to remove the link to the talk page of anonymous users:</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang=php>
 
−
$wgHooks['PersonalUrls'][] = 'lfRemoveAnonUserpageLink';
 
−
function lfRemoveAnonUserpageLink( &$personal_urls, $title ) {

unset( $personal_urls['anonuserpage'] );

−
===How do I remove the "Create an Account or Login" link at the top right of the screen?=== <!--T:311-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:312-->
 
−
To remove the login / create account links from the personal_urls you can use this code in your {{manual|LocalSettings.php}} to hook in and remove them:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang=php>
 
−
$wgHooks['PersonalUrls'][] = 'lfRemoveLoginLink';
 
−
function lfRemoveLoginLink( &$personal_urls, $title ) {
 
−
unset( $personal_urls['login'] );
 
−
unset( $personal_urls['anonlogin'] );
 
−
unset( $personal_urls['createaccount'] );

===How can I suppress actions and special pages?=== <!--T:313-->
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
{{note|1=<translate><!--T:314--> MediaWiki is not designed for this kind of usage!</translate> <translate><!--T:315--> It should be noted that the following 'answer' is a hack that only 'works' with the Apache webserver.</translate> <translate><!--T:316--> Note also that this system is not foolproof, it's just one step further than hiding the links (see above).</translate>}}
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:317-->
 
−
Suppressing actions and special pages can be useful when you want to create the illusion of a static website via a particular URL or VirtualHost, but also have an 'internal' view that is a true wiki.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:318-->
 
−
i.e. if you have an inward facing 'view' of your wiki that users can edit, and an outward facing 'view' that should appear like a static website (no history, no discussion, etc., etc.).
 
−
 
−
<!--T:319-->
 
−
After hiding all the appropriate links (see above), if you are using the Apache web server, you can disable actions and special pages using the following [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_rewrite.html rewrite rules]:</translate>
 
−
 
−
<pre>
 
−
# Lock down the site (disable MediaWiki commands)
 
−
 
−

#RewriteLog /tmp/rewrite.log

−
<!--T:320-->
 
−
Above, a request for <tvar|1><code><nowiki>'http://www.my.domain.com/wiki/Page_name?action=edit'</nowiki></code></>, for example, will be simply rewritten to <tvar|2><code><nowiki>'http://www.my.domain.com'</nowiki></code></>.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:322-->
 
−
Similarly any page in the Special namespace (with the exception of Special:Search) will be rewritten to <tvar|1><code><nowiki>'http://www.my.domain.com'</nowiki></code></>.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:323-->
 
−
'''Remember''', this is only a hack, and isn't intended as a solution for a secure CMS.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:324-->
 
−
Note that you will need to adjust the above rules to match your specific URL naming schema.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:325-->
 
−
Other issues to consider when trying to lock down a site like this is the API and POST requests for the wiki content (rather than GET).

===How can I edit / remove the Powered by MediaWiki image (and possible other images) from the footer?=== <!--T:330-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:331-->
 
−
You can hide the Powered by MediaWiki image by adding the following to your wiki's [[MediaWiki:Common.css]]:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang="css">
 
−
#footer-poweredbyico { display: none; }
 
−
</syntaxhighlight>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:335-->
 
−
If you want to remove it completely, you can use {{wg|FooterIcons}} to remove it using this in your {{manual|LocalSettings.php}}:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang=php>unset( $wgFooterIcons['poweredby'] );</syntaxhighlight>
 
−
 
−
 
−
Note that this will also remove ''other'' powered-by icons, e.g. also the one coming from BlueSpice.
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:337-->
 
−
If you wish to change the icon images, urls, alt text, or add new icons please see {{wg|FooterIcons}}' documentation.

===How do I add a reply link to default signature tildes (<tvar|1><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></>) template?=== <!--T:338-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:339-->
 
−
You can customize signatures in [[MediaWiki:Signature]] / [[MediaWiki:Signature-anon]].
 
−
 
−
<!--T:340-->
 
−
For example, changing the entries to <code><nowiki>[[{{ns:user}}:$1|$2]] ([[{{ns:user_talk}}:$1|talk]])</nowiki></code> will put a link to users' talk pages and <code><nowiki>[[{{ns:user}}:$1|$2]] ([{{fullurl:{{ns:user_talk}}:$1|action=edit&section=new}} Reply])</nowiki></code> would give a more direct link.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:341-->
 
−
Users can change their signature in their preferences.
 
−
 
−
===How can I change what the <title> of each page is? Where do I make changes?=== <!--T:342-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:343-->
 
−
Most of the text that you want to change can be found in the namespace of MediaWiki.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:344-->
 
−
In order to change titles, texts, announcements, etc., go to [[Special:AllMessages]], where you will see the text associated with the pages you wish to change.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:345-->
 
−
You need to log in as an administrator to edit the protected entries in the MediaWiki namespace.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:346-->
 
−
If you want to change the title in your browser, you need to edit [[MediaWiki:Pagetitle]].</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:347-->
 
−
Go there and edit it just like you would any other page in your wiki.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:348-->

=== How do I disable external links from showing in the printable version of a page? === <!--T:373-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:374-->
 
−
Edit the page [[MediaWiki:Print.css]] on your wiki and add the following code there:</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang="css">
 
−
#content a.external.text:after,
 
−
#content a.external.autonumber:after {
 
−
content: none;
 
−
}
 
−
</syntaxhighlight>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:375-->
 
−
This will override the styles defined in the CSS files coming with the MediaWiki source code.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:376-->
 
−
For more information, see <tvar|1>{{ll|Manual:CSS}}</>.</translate>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:377-->
 
−
If instead you want to have the external links ''underlined'' in the printable version, then also add the following code:</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang="css">
 
−
#content a.external {
 
−
    text-decoration: underline !important;
 
−
}

===How do I change the text of the article (page name) tab of my wiki's main page?=== <!--T:378-->
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
{{anchor|How do I change the text of the tab of my wikis main page?}}
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:380-->
 
−
To change the text of the tab, as one example used in Wikipedia, you first open the page "<tvar|1><code>MediaWiki:Mainpage-nstab</code></>".
 
−
 
−
<!--T:381-->
 
−
After you've done that, click Edit and type in the edit box the text you want to be seen later on the main page - that's it.</translate>
 
−

−
<!--T:382-->
 
−
Don't forget to save the page as well.

===How do I edit a page?=== <!--T:384-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:385-->
 
−
To edit a page, simply click the '''edit''' link that appears on each page.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:386-->
 
−
Using the default Vector skin, this is in the form of a tab at the top of the page.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:387-->
 
−
A form will appear, containing the existing markup.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:388-->
 
−
When you have finished making modifications, click the '''Save''' button to commit your changes.

===How do I create a new page?=== <!--T:390-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:391-->
 
−
There are several ways to create a new page:
 
−
 
−
<!--T:392-->
 
−
*Create a link to the page on another page, then click on the red link which appears</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:393-->
 
−
*Browse to the intended location of the page, e.g. <code><nowiki>http://www.example.com/index.php?title=New_page</nowiki></code> and click on the "'''Edit'''", "'''Create'''" or "'''Create source'''" link.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:394-->
 
−
On some wikis, a failed search for a page will contain a link which allows you to edit that page.

===How do I delete an old version of a page?=== <!--T:396-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:397-->
 
−
Old versions of page data are retained in the database and can be accessed via the page history features.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:398-->
 
−
This is useful for reviewing changes and correcting or reverting undesirable ones, but in some cases, administrators might want to make this information unavailable, for legal reasons, or to reduce the size of the database.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:399-->
 
−
*Administrators can delete an old revision of a page by deleting the page, and then selectively undeleting revisions to be kept</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:401-->
 
−
*For newer MediaWikis (1.14+), you can enable the core [[RevisionDelete]] feature that allows privileged users to remove single revisions from page histories.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:402-->
 
−
*The <tvar|1><code>maintenance/{{ll|Manual:deleteOldRevisions.php|deleteOldRevisions.php}}</code></> [[<tvar|2>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Maintenance scripts</>|maintenance script]] can mass-delete all old revisions of pages and their associated text records.

:''<translate><!--T:676--> See:</translate> {{ll|RevisionDelete}}''
 
−

<translate>

You can also delete a page, and then restore only the revisions you want.
 
−
 
−
===Are there any editing tutorials available?=== <!--T:407-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:408-->
 
−
There are several editing tutorials available, mostly on Wikimedia sister projects, such as Wikipedia.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:409-->
 
−
There are also markup references, etc. available on ''Meta''.

===How do I view the printable form of a page?=== <!--T:413-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:414-->
 
−
MediaWiki includes stylesheets which automatically style a page appropriately when it is printed; using the print or print preview function within your browser ought to render the page in a printable form.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:415-->
 
−
You can also view this printable form using the ''printable version'' link in the sidebar under ''Toolbox'' or ''Print/export'' if using the <tvar|1>{{ll|Extension:Collection|nsp=0}}</> extension.

===Can I use media (images, video, audio, etc.) from [[<tvar|1>m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Commons</>|Wikimedia Commons]] in my installed version of MediaWiki?=== <!--T:418-->
 
−

Yes, this is encouraged through the use of <tvar|1>{{ll|Manual:$wgUseInstantCommons}}</>.

===How do I use a template as a signature?=== <!--T:421-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:422-->
 
−
When you look at your preferences, you see a check box for "raw signature."</translate> 
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:423-->
 
−
But the field will only take a certain number of characters.</translate> 
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:424-->
 
−
What if you want more?
 
−
 
−
<!--T:425-->
 
−
You will need to create two pages, possibly in your userspace.</translate>
 
−
 
−
#<translate><!--T:426--> Create the first page (FIRST PAGE)</translate>
 
−
# <translate><!--T:427--> Go to your preferences, check "raw signature" and put <tvar|1><nowiki>{{FIRST PAGE}}</nowiki></> in the signature.</translate> {{int|saveprefs}}
 
−
#<translate><!--T:429--> Create a second page (SECOND PAGE) (possibly a sub-page of the first)</translate>
 
−
#<translate><!--T:430--> Go back to the first page (FIRST PAGE) and do <tvar|1><nowiki>{{SECOND PAGE}}</nowiki></></translate>
 
−
#<translate><!--T:431--> Go to the second page (SECOND PAGE) and place the code you wish to have for your signature.</translate>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:432-->
 
−
If you don't have this structure, you will still be inserting all your signature code into the raw code wherever your signature is used, because the software will insert "SUBST" in your preferences.</translate> 
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:433-->
 
−
You may not mind this, in which case you only need one page.</translate> 
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:434-->
 
−
If you want the raw code to only display <tvar|1><nowiki>{{FIRST PAGE}}</nowiki></>, which looks a lot cleaner, then you need to use the two-page structure.

=== How do I add the sandbox functionality to my installation of the wiki? === <!--T:435-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:436-->
 
−
In wiki terms, a ''sandbox'' is simply a "play pen"; a page which users can mess about in.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:437-->
 
−
This is an ordinary page created in the normal manner, and can be located wherever you like.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:438-->
 
−
There is no special sandbox functionality built into MediaWiki.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:439-->
 
−
Users often inquire about the Wikipedia sandboxes, which seem to be self-emptying.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:440-->
 
−
This is not quite correct; there are a number of volunteers who run [[Manual:Bots|bots]] to clean these up and return them to a certain state at regular time intervals.
 
−
 
−
=== How do I add a "Sandbox" link to personal tools (top right)? === <!--T:441-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:714-->
 
−
You need to install the <tvar|1>{{ll|Extension:SandboxLink|nsp=0}}</> extension.</translate> 
 
−
<translate>
 
−
=== How do I make my wiki serve all languages? === <!--T:444-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:445-->
 
−
To make your wiki multilingual and a tool for translation, allowing translation of pages and of the custom interface (like the sidebar), use the <tvar|1>{{ll|Extension:Translate|Translate}}</> extension; there's [[Help:Extension:Translate|extensive documentation]].

There is some documentation about importing in the UPGRADE file distributed with MediaWiki.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:453-->
 
−
To follow on from those, this is how at least one individual imported pages from usemod to MediaWiki:
 
−
 
−
<!--T:454-->
 
−
Because MediaWiki does not automatically link to [[w:CamelCase|CamelCase]] style links, you will need to add brackets <nowiki> [[ ]] </nowiki> to all your links.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:455-->
 
−
You can do this with the following:
 
−
 
−
<!--T:456-->
 
−
First, obtain ImportStage1.txt (or whatever you want to call it) from the importUseModWiki.php script ( use > to pipe the output to a file )
 
−
 
−
<!--T:457-->
 
−
Second, do</translate>
 
−
 
−
<pre>
 
−
sed '/Importing/!s/\ [A-Z]\w*[a-z]\w*[A-Z]\w*[a-zA-Z]/\ \[\[&\]\] /g'
 
−
    ImportStage1.txt > ImportStage2.txt
 
−
</pre>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:458-->
 
−
This should create proper links in place of your CamelCase links.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:459-->
 
−
'''This doesn't''' work so well for SubPage links - someone care to fix?
 
−
 
−
<!--T:460-->

<pre>
 
−
sed 's/upload\:\w*\.\w*/http\:\/\/aberwiki\.org\/uploads\/& /g'
 
−
    ImportStage2.txt > ImportStage3.txt
 
−
</pre>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:461-->
 
−
This fixes your upload links.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:462-->
 
−
Change the replace text so it fills in your url such as <nowiki>http://www.yourwiki.org/uploads/filename</nowiki>
 
−
 
−
<!--T:463-->
 
−
You are now ready to import ImportStage3.txt into your database with a command such as</translate>

<pre>

===How do I fix problems or add features to MediaWiki?=== <!--T:524-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:525-->
 
−
The basic steps to improving MediaWiki (that is, [[How to become a MediaWiki hacker|becoming a MediaWiki developer]]) are:
 
−
 
−
<!--T:526-->
 
−
* Install [[Special:MyLanguage/Gerrit|Git]]</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:527-->
 
−
* Download the Git "clone" of the MediaWiki source code</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:528-->
 
−
* Get a server, a database, and PHP running on your computer (this can be annoying, so please ask for help if something isn't working)</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:529-->
 
−
* Get MediaWiki running on your computer off that Git checkout (can be annoying as well, so, ditto)</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:530-->
 
−
* Fix the problem or add the feature you were thinking of</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:531-->
 
−
* Edit the source code of the relevant file(s) to fix the problem</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:532-->
 
−
* Follow [[Gerrit/Tutorial]]

−
:''<translate><!--T:709--> See:</translate> {{ll|Manual:Bots}}''
 
−
<translate>

You might want to use the <tvar|1>{{ll|Manual:Pywikibot|Pywikibot}}</> framework.
 
−
 
−
=== How do I change noindex nofollow === <!--T:536-->
 
−

=== How do I add [[w:Meta element|meta tags]]? === <!--T:540-->
 
−

<!--T:541-->
 
−
The OutputPage class includes an addMeta method which can be used to add meta tags.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:542-->
 
−
The [[RequestContext]] can be used to get the relevant OutputPage object.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:543-->
 
−
To add further Meta tags just add further lines as last lines of the function addMetaTags() like:</translate>
 
−
 
−
$out->addMeta ( 'description', 'This is a meta description.' );
 
−
 
−
<translate>

==Why...?== <!--T:544-->
 
−
 
−
===…is the Help namespace empty?=== <!--T:545-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:546-->
 
−
The Help namespace currently ships in a blank state.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:547-->
 
−
It's up to you how much or how little help you give to your site visitors and whether this relates to other aspects of your site.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:548-->
 
−
Obviously you can easily link your visitors to help resources elsewhere.</translate>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:549-->
 
−
We don't currently have a clean, internationalised set of help pages under a free license.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:550-->
 
−
However, if you want to copy in some help information onto your site, about how to use a wiki (a MediaWiki powered wiki) you are free to copy the <tvar|1>{{ll|Help:Contents}}</> from this wiki.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:551-->
 
−
This set of pages have been deliberately created for this purpose, with wiki-neutral information, and no license restrictions.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:552-->
 
−
See [[Project:PD help]]. More help is available at the Meta-Wiki [[m:Help:Contents|MediaWiki Handbook]].
 
−
 
−
===…are some of my images not showing up after an upgrade?=== <!--T:553-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:554-->
 
−
Several users have reported that, following an upgrade or a moving of their wiki, several images fail to be shown inline.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:555-->
 
−
The files exist, and the image description pages show a MIME type of <tvar|1><code>unknowncode>/unknown</code></> and, in some cases, a warning about potentially dangerous files.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:556-->
 
−
To fix this, run the <tvar|1><code>maintenance/rebuildImages.php</code></> script from the command line.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:557-->
 
−
This will set MIME information for each file in the database.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:683-->
 
−
Recent versions of MediaWiki implement [[<tvar|ResponsiveImages>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgResponsiveImages</>|responsive images]].</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:684-->
 
−
Due to [[<tvar|bug>phab:T181987</>|a bug]], if the server locale is set to one that uses commas instead of dots for representing a decimal point, images may not render on some browsers/devices.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:685-->
 
−
This can be confirmed by inspecting a thumbnail of a medium or big image on a page with the browser tools, looking at the HTML code, and see if the <tvar|1><code>srcset</code></> attribute contains commas instead of dots when representing the <tvar|2><code>1.5x</code></> value.
 
−
 
−
===…are all PNG files not being turned into thumbnails?=== <!--T:558-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:559-->
 
−
After upgrading to a more recent version of PHP, it is possible a different MimeMagic.php function is being used to detect file MIME types, particularly the built-in PHP function mime_content_type, which fails to detect PNG files.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:560-->
 
−
Search the web for <tvar|1>''mime_content_type png''</> for information on fixing this bug at the PHP level, possibly by editing your magic.mime file.

===…can't I download MediaWiki {{padright:{{#expr:{{MW stable branch number}}+.01}}|4}}?=== <!--T:567-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:568-->
 
−
MediaWiki {{padright:{{#expr:{{MW stable branch number}}+.01}}|4}} is in a development state at present, and has not been packaged into a general release.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:569-->
 
−
The code can be [[<tvar|1>Special:MyLanguage/Download from Git</>|downloaded from Git]] if desired.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:570-->
 
−
Or, if you want the latest development version packaged as an archive, get it at {{MW alpha branch link}} (GitHub).
 
−
 
−
===…doesn't this work? It works on Wikipedia!=== <!--T:571-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:572-->
 
−
Wikipedia and other Wikimedia web sites use the current version of the code in development; at present, this is MediaWiki {{CURRENTVERSION}}, pulled from the current development branch.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:573-->
 
−
Coupled with the use of several extensions, this means that functionality between these wikis and your particular setup may differ.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:574-->
 
−
*To obtain the current development code, read [[<tvar|1>Special:MyLanguage/Download from Git</>|Download from Git]]</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:575-->
 
−
*To check what version a Wikimedia wiki is running, as well as what extensions are installed, visit the [[Special:Version]] page for that wiki</translate>
 
−
<translate>

<!--T:715-->

===…do I get a '''403 Forbidden''' error after setting permissions on my Fedora system?=== <!--T:576-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:577-->
 
−
Fedora Core enables <tvar|1>{{ll|SELinux}}</> by default.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:578-->
 
−
Instructions for setting SELinux permissions for MediaWiki [[<tvar|1>Special:MyLanguage/SELinux</>|are available]].
 
−
 
−
===…do I get ''Installing some external dependencies (e.g. via composer) is required''?=== <!--T:686-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:687-->
 
−
Many web hotels only handle zip archives, and we only provide gz compressed tar archives, thus the archives has to be recompressed before uploading.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:688-->
 
−
This should not be much of a hurdle, but it seems like some archive tools occasionally fails to include all files in large archives.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:689-->
 
−
When this happen the vendor folder is left out, leaving the user with the rather non-explanatory error message.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:690-->
 
−
Use a command line tool when recompressing the tar archive into a zip archive.
 
−
 
−
===…do I get logged out constantly?=== <!--T:579-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:580-->
 
−
This is probably related to cookies or session data. See [[m:Help:Logging in#Log in problems|Log in problems]] for information.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:682-->
 
−
If this is happening constantly to all users, it probably means that caching is misconfigured. Setting <tvar|1><code>$wgSessionCacheType = CACHE_DB;</code></> can be used to determine if caching is the cause of the problem. If that solves the problem, you should still investigate what is wrong with your caching configuration.

At many times you just want to remove a user account out of the wiki either because it belonged to a spammer account or you just feel like it.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:585-->
 
−
The appropriate choice is to block the account or rename it if needed.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:586-->
 
−
Here is why:
 
−
 
−
<!--T:587-->
 
−
''Do I just remove this row from the [[User table]]?''
 
−
 
−
<!--T:588-->
 
−
[[mailarchive:wikitech-l/2007-June/031566.html|Rob Church posted the following]] regarding this issue on the wikitech-l mailing list:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
{{quote|text=
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:589-->
 
−
If the user has made edits, then removing rows from the user table
 
−
cause theoretical loss of referential integrity.</translate> <translate><!--T:590-->
 
−
Now, to be honest
 
−
with you, I can't think of any conditions where this would cause an
 
−
actual problem; "undefined behaviour" is the phrase we use.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:591-->
 
−
What I'd suggest doing, to be on the safe side, is running a couple of
 
−
quick updates against the database:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
:<syntaxhighlight lang="sql">UPDATE revision SET rev_user = 0 WHERE rev_user = <current_user_id></syntaxhighlight>
 
−
:<syntaxhighlight lang="sql">UPDATE archive SET ar_user = 0 WHERE ar_user = <current_user_id></syntaxhighlight>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:592-->
 
−
What this will do is cause MediaWiki to treat the revisions as having
 
−
been made anonymously when generating things like page histories,
 
−
which should eliminate any problems caused by these routines
 
−
attempting to check user details from other tables.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:593-->
 
−
If the user has caused log entries, i.e. rows in the logging table, or
 
−
uploaded images, then the situation becomes trickier, as you'll have
 
−
to start mopping up all the rows everywhere and it could become a bit
 
−
of a mess, so if the user's done anything other than edit, I would
 
−
strongly recommend just blocking them indefinitely.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:594-->
 
−
If the username is offensive or undesirable, then you could consider
 
−
renaming it using the <tvar|1>{{ll|Extension:Renameuser|RenameUser}}</> extension.
 
−
</translate>
 
−
}}
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:595-->
 
−
Another option is to give Admins the [[Manual:User_rights|'hideuser']] right, and indefinitely block the user with the ''Hide username from edits and lists'' option selected.
 
−
 
−
<!--T:596-->
 
−
<tvar|1>{{ll|Extension:UserMerge}}</> is also useful.
 
−
 
−
===…is the number of pages so low on Special:Statistics?=== <!--T:699-->

−
<!--T:700-->
 
−
[[<tvar|1>phab:source/mediawiki/browse/master/includes/DefaultSettings.php</>|By default]], <tvar|2>{{ll|Manual:$wgArticleCountMethod|<code>$wgArticleCountMethod</code>}}</> is set to <tvar|3><code>link</code></>.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:701-->
 
−
This means the number of "Content pages" on the <tvar|1>[[Special:Statistics]]</> page only counts pages which include at least one internal link.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:702-->
 
−
This can be changed by setting <tvar|1><code>$wgArticleCountMethod</code></> to <tvar|2><code>any</code></>.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:703-->
 
−
Afterwards, run <tvar|1>{{ll|Manual:UpdateArticleCount.php|<code>updateArticleCount.php</code>}}</> and/or <tvar|2>{{ll|Manual:InitSiteStats.php|<code>initSiteStats.php</code>}}</>.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:704-->
 
−
(On Wikimedia websites, <tvar|1><code>initSiteStats.php</code></> is run on the 1st and 15th of each month.)</translate>
 
−
<translate>

===How do I use $wgSpamRegex to block more than one string?=== <!--T:601-->
 
−
 
−
<!--T:602-->
 
−
<tvar|1>{{ll|Manual:$wgSpamRegex|$wgSpamRegex}}</> is a powerful filter for page content.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:603-->
 
−
Adding multiple items to the regex, however, can be awkward.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:604-->
 
−
Consider this snippet:
 
−
</translate>
 
−
 
−
<syntaxhighlight lang="php">
 
−
$wgSpamRegexLines[] = 'display\s*:\s*none';
 
−
$wgSpamRegexLines[] = 'overflow\s*:\s*auto';
 
−
[...]
 
−
$wgSpamRegex = '/(' . implode( '|', $wgSpamRegexLines ) . ')/i';
 
−
</syntaxhighlight>
 
−
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:605-->
 
−
This example code allows convenient addition of additional items to the regex without fiddling about each time.</translate>
 
−
<translate>
 
−
<!--T:606-->
 
−
It also demonstrates two popular filters, which block some of the most common spam attacks.
