Hi Mateus, what is happening exactly? Have you successfully installed MediaWiki? Tisane 01:23, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, the problem is that I want to change the URL, logo, favicon and want to allow sending of files in my wiki, and according to the manual, all this is done by editing the LocalSettings.php then need to find this file, and this file is in the config folder, but after installation, it's written that I should delete this folder to have total security (I have not erased).

 * Hmm, well, you will need to move LocalSettings.php to its parent directory if you haven't done so already, and then edit it. You don't need to keep a copy of it in the config folder. MediaWiki will only pay attention to the copy that is in the parent folder to the config folder. Once you have that part figured out, some other useful manual pages are Manual:$wgFavicon, Manual:$wgLogo, Manual:$wgEnableUploads, and Manual:Short URL. And depending on the types of uploads your wiki will be handling, you may also want to take a look at Manual:$wgFileExtensions and Manual:$wgAllowCopyUploads. Tisane 03:05, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
 * It did not work. I installed the version of MediaWiki 1.15.1 because the xampp php was not compatible as MediaWiki 1.15.3. The URL of my wiki was http://localhost/wiki/index.php/ARTICLESNAME, but when I added the follow code:

It did not work, Is must have /index.php before the name of the article. I just want to change the URL of my wiki for http://MYWIKINAME.com/ARTICLESNAME or http://MYWIKINAME.com/wiki/ARTICLESNAME. Mateus95860 Cont. 04:16, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Did you change  per the Manual:Short URL instructions? They list a lot of different methods; if one doesn't work, you can try another. To be honest, I haven't tried to configure a short URL on an XAMPP localhost. In fact, I haven't been able to do anything with XAMPP ever since that PHP regression. But I think the same basic principles apply. Tisane 04:53, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * See httpd.conf. More importantly, go to Manual:Short URL, hit Ctrl-f, and search for httpd.conf. Another possibility is using .htaccess, IIRC. There's not much more I can suggest at this point other than, Just keep googling and playing around with it till you figure out how to make it work. Sorry, I'm not the expert on rewriting/aliasing; you may want to try one of these methods of Communication to get help from someone with more knowledge on the intricacies of this stuff.
