Issue with MW 1.24.1
For some reason I can't get the extension to show up on the Special Pages. I get the following error message when entering " ": No such special page You have requested an invalid special page. A list of valid special pages can be found at Special pages.

What I have, and have done is: MediaWiki 1.24.1 PHP      5.4.35 (apache2handler) MySQL 	 5.5.40 require_once "$IP/extensions/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi.php"; $wgNamespacesWithSubpages[NS_MAIN]=true; require_once "$IP/extensions/Html2Wiki/Html2Wiki.php"; $wgScriptPath = "/mediawiki"; # Default installation Entry point	URL Article path	/mediawiki/index.php/$1 Script path	/mediawiki index.php	/mediawiki/index.php api.php		/mediawiki/api.php load.php	/mediawiki/load.php
 * Win7 VMware
 * bitnami mediawiki 1.24.1-0 windows installer. More below.
 * Modified Mediawiki:Common.js (sidebar). Bar OK, but doesn't execute
 * No Apache redirects applied ("clean install")
 * The bitnami stack:
 * Configurations
 * Entry point URLs
 * Installed skins:
 * Metrolook	2.5	GPLv2+	Metrolook skin for MediaWiki	...


 * Installed extensions:
 * SyntaxHighlight	1.0.8.11-wmf1	...
 * Html2Wiki	2015.02	GPL-2.0+	...	Greg Rundlett

Any hints about what to try would be much apprechiated (Needs to test to upload 44.000+ html pages).

blank page after import button
Hello,

I have an up to date wiki installation. The newest HTML2WIKI version was installed last week with all dependencies. My goal is to import hundrets of html files. I cant even succeed in importing one since the import fails but gives no feedback at all. After choosing the html file as .html or as .zip I press the "Import" Button and get forwarded to a blank screen.

Any experiences with this issue? Also I'm not sure how Tidy, QueryPath and Pandoc have to be installed and configurated on debian and if the extension really makes use of them?

Thanks for your answers in advance.

Encoding problems
Hi, I seem to have encoding problems. After importing a file with "foreign" (non-US) characters, the preview seems to display text as non-UTF-8 7-bit characters. Both the input file and the Wiki are UTF-8.

E.g. "Séminaire" becomes "sÃ©minaire". Only "old-style HTML like S&eacute;minaire would translate to "séminaire".

System and Wiki version: here.

Is there something I did wrong ? Or is this a bug/feature ?

Embed Mindjet HTML (Mindmanager export) into wiki page
Hello, can't find the right solution. How to embed Mindjet Mindmaps into a MediaWiki page? I can handle extensions, but i'm not a nerd. :(

Any idea?

Many thanks for help in advance.

XAMPP
Hi, I'm trying to install this extension in a local XAMPP, so far I've got Tidy enabled by googling, but I'm now stuck at how to install pandoc. Can anyone point out how to install pandoc on XAMPP? Bennylin (talk) 11:02, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

Anchor required?
I've got the extension working on different machine, and based on my experiments, each file has to have at least a link (a href) for the extension to process it? That's a big gotcha there. Bennylin (talk) 07:30, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

import HTML extension (allcaps)
Bug: Importing files with .HTML extension in upper caps (as opposed to .html in lower caps) would generate pagenames with .HTML suffix (as opposed to without suffix). Bennylin (talk) 07:52, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Pandoc not being detected/Windows Setup
Trying to get HTML2Wiki to work and keep getting stumped with Pandoc being detected by the extension. Everything else installs fine and Pandoc can be used through Command line with no issues, but extension keeps saying to install Pandoc. Tried to remove the requirement out of the PHP which gets rid of the nag screen but when trying to run an Import HTML job it hangs and nothing shows up on the page; I have also tried on two computers (Windows 10 and Windows Server 2012 R2), same results.Any ideas?

Remote file repository
Is this able to upload images to a shared/remote repository as well, like Commons? Nemo 14:30, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Dry run

Error message
Dear everypody, I just tried to install the extension. composer install delivered
 * [ErrorException] file_put_contents(/var/lib/mediawiki/extensions/Html2Wiki/vendor/composer/installed.js on): failed to open stream: Permission denied

In fact, the directory exists, but the file does not. What should I do abot that? Thank you in advance. Yours, Ciciban (talk) 15:15, 27 September 2016 (UTC)
