Thread:Extension talk:VisualEditor/Can not get VisualEditor extension for MediaWiki REL1 23 working on freshly installed system/reply (8)

I can confirm that I had the same symptoms as described in the initial posting and the following ones (Parsoid seems to work, but Edit and Confirm links not clickable). I used git to install the extension and may have made a mistake there since I don't really understand git, i.e. I went like this: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/VisualEditor.git cd VisualEditor git checkout REL1_23 git submodule update --init

Since my technical skills are too low to dig into the code, I then just upgraded the wiki to 1.24alpha and it worked. Except for changing the version (both MW and VisualEditor extension, I used the same configurations.

- cheers.
