Thread:Project:Support desk/Installing extension tags: EasyTimeline

Hello, heres is the info of my installed version:

MediaWiki: 1.6.12 PHP: 5.1.6 (apache2handler) MySQL: 5.0.37-community-log Extensions: Special pages: Piwik Integration (version 1.5.2-piwik0.5.5) by Isb1009 Parser hooks: EasyTimeline by Erik Zachte Hooks: ParserFirstCallInit: wfTimelineExtension and wfSampleParserInit SkinAfterBottomScripts: efPiwikHookText

I'm having problems to use the EasyTimeline extension. The tag is not been parsed by de mediawiki and the tag and also the script between the tags is been written in plaintext. In the version page, after the EasyTimelime word is an image of a closed padlock. What does this padlock means?

To install the EasyTimeline I followed the instructions written in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EasyTimeline/installation I installed ploticus, I put the files EasyTimeline.pl, Timeline.php and Timeline.i18n.php into extensions/timeline. I add the following lines at the end of the LocalSettings.php file: require_once("extensions/timeline/Timeline.php" ); $wgTimelineSettings->ploticusCommand = "/usr/bin/pl"; $wgTimelineSettings->perlCommand = "/usr/bin/perl";

I've also tried to execute EasyTimeline.pl with an example script, and it works: perl EasyTimeline.pl -i scriptfile.txt

Do you know if there could be a problem with the mediawiki 1.6.12 version and EasyTimeline? What does the padlock means? Maybe it is not posible to add extension tags in mediawiki 1.6.12 or it's necessary to activate this in a configuration file?

Thanks!
