Hi all,

I'm new to MediaWiki and so far liking the product. Since this morning, I've tried to install the new VisualEditor, together with the Parsoid server. I've managed to install both successfully without a hitch, after following the excellent guideline provided here. However, I noticed that my VisualEditor seems to be outdated since it lacks the Table functionalities, unlike the one being used here at mediawiki.org and Wikipedia.

Upon checking, I discovered that I'm using the same VisualEditor version i.e. 0.1.0 but I'm using the latest stable version of both Parsoid and MediaWiki. What could I be missing? I've also enabled the experimental config but to no avail. Appreciate some help here. Thank you.

How did you install the new VisualEditor? Which exact steps to follow to reproduce the problem?

Sure. Below are the steps to reproduce it.

1. For simplicity, I used the excellent Bitnami WAMP stack and install MediaWiki app. WAMP could be obtained here - hxxps://bitnami.com/stack/wamp and MediaWiki app could be obtained here - hxxps://bitnami.com/stack/wamp/modules. Current version for MediaWiki is 1.24.2-1.

2. For VisualEditor's installation, I followed this guide - hxxps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VisualEditor. This includes the UniversalLanguageSelector extension and Parsoid server. Since I'm using Windows, I followed this guide for Parsoid installation - hxxps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/Developer_Setup#Windows_setup. Parsoid is up and running at localhost:8000.

3. The LocalSetting also have been adjusted properly following those guides mentioned above. Let me know if you need to know the specifics. For this particular test, I disable Experimental mode.

4. Editing the MainPage, giving me this Editor

5. As per my question, what did I missed? I couldn't find any reference that higher version of MediaWiki i.e. 1.2.5 or above have to be installed or etc. Appreciate some help here. Thank you.

Bump. Any clue?

No worries about this. Already got it working once upgraded to 1.25.1.
