User talk:Juliano

The KML Export is really neat
I love this and it is working great. The only question I had is how do I get pictures to show up in the balloons on GE? I've tried several methods and nothing seems to work. I usually just get the grey or black box in the window. Any suggestions? Thanks.--Mfinney 00:42, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

MscGen comment
Hi Juliano,

you commented a cross site scripting attach in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MscGen. I added a patch, but actually am no longer actively developing the script. Would you be so nice to review it?

Thanks,

Ruud

Getting started with Wikilog
Hi Juliano,

I just installed the Wikilog extension. Can you provide an example of how you create your first blog? Thanks.

 * Hello krishna,
 * Please, take a look at the user documentation at Help:Wikilog. It contains everything users need to know to start using the extension. You can import the documentation to your own wiki using the steps described in Extension:Wikilog.

Requests and Hacks
Juliano -

Wikilog is awesome! I've installed it and it will play a central role on one of the wikis that my organization has developed.

In configuring the system, I came across several items - mostly user interface stuff - that we wanted to change to reflect the look and feel of the rest of our wiki. In order to achieve what we were looking for, I wrote a number of hacks for Wikilog that we have incorporated into our application. Since many of the changes are items that you may wish to include in future Wikilog versions, or are alterations that others may want to make in the own applications, I created some spaces to share what we've done:


 * Extension:Wikilog/Hacks is a new page where I have shared all of our hacks and invited others to contribute. I also changed the Wikilog extension pages' menu bar to include this page.
 * At Extension talk:Wikilog we started a list of features that we hope that you consider if you make future revisions of the extension. Where we had deveop hacks we included links from this section.
 * We also created a space to share hacks at the site where the Wikilog documentation is maintained, http://wiki.juliano.info/wiki/Help:Hacks. (While I was there I also included a copy of the configuration instructions that are at Extension:Wikilog/Configuration but were absent at wiki.juliano.info.)

Thanks for this great extension!

 * Hello PerkinsTaylor,
 * You are welcome! I'm satisfied to know that the extension is useful for you.
 * However, as I answered in the extension talk page, "hacks" are not a good sign and should not be encouraged. I would like to see that page gone. Instead, the software should be fixed so that the user doesn't have to deal with any "hack". More about this in the talk page.
 * The extension documentation at wiki.juliano.info is user documentation, i.e., documentation for normal people who are just using the extension, who generally only have access through the web interface. Both the Wikilog/Configuration and Wikilog/Hacks pages which were copied there are only of interest to administrators who are installing the extension, since they deal with server configuration and code changes that make absolutely no sense to ordinary users. The pages at wiki.juliano.info are intended to be packaged and then imported into the "Help" namespace other people's wikis. They are there just because they use some parser functions that are only available where Wikilog is installed, otherwise, I would maintain them here on mediawiki.org.
 * So, I'm afraid I'll have to remove those pages. I hope you understand.
 * You may want to join the extension mailing list, where development discussions happen.
 * Thanks for your feedback!
 * Best regards, --Juliano 01:42, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
