Categorytree showing ghosted page in menu

I am currently running in to an issue where CategoryTree is showing a deleted page. I have tried numerous things like undeleting the page, removing the category, deleting the page again. Even tried adding the undeleted page back to the previous category only to show 2 ghosted items in the menu. When I remove the category for that page, the second one is removed but the first one remains.

It seems to be some type of a bug that I cannot figure out. I tried setting $wgCategoryTreeDisableCache = true but that didn't make any difference. Is there a way through a configuration parameter that I can clear out the entire DB cache and have it regenerated?

Any assistance would be great here

Is there any way to reset the category tree database? I'd like to remove this ghosted item in the menu but need some assistance on how one could go about accomplishing this.

Moin moin.

The CategoryTree didn't find any subcategories. I hope the following image will show the problem:

While clicking "Erosion durch Wasser" (see the image) the correct pages an the subcategory appears.

On which wiki did this occur? Is it persistent (have you tried it again as it told)?

Then please check your browser console. It can usually be accessed with the F12 key and/or Ctrl+Shift+I (if you can't find it, write me what browser you use and I try to find it out).

If it's under construction, can't you delete the whole wiki and install the most recent versions with a clean installation?

The web error message says that you don't have read permission through the API (while you obviously have through the normal HTML interface). This can be somehow CategoryTree's code error if your wiki's private (i.e. anonymous users can't read pages). It was designed for Wikipedia, where read access is not a problem. The command line error is OK, api.php isn't designed for command line access (it wants to access $_SERVER which I think is an empty array or something like that). For development, you can set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; in LocalSettings.php (it's not recommended for production use!), although it won't produce any error message in this case, since it's not an error in PHP level.

Ok, it is a private wiki. So it can be a code error in CategoryTree. I think i have to live with this problem.

Thanks

Moin moin, wouldn't it be better to write out the abbreviations in the i18n files? It coult used the plural forms. For example the param "categorytree-num-pages" coult be something like {{PLURAL:$1|1 page|$1 pages}}. Or {{PLURAL:$1|1 file|$1 files}} for "categorytree-num-files".

If so, someone coult arrange it?

Category pages - Remove MediaWiki lists

Hi All

I use CategoryTree on every one of my Category pages.

I no longer need the built in MediaWiki Pages and Subcategory lists.

How can I disable these?

Reply 03:02, 3 August 2016 1 month ago

I was able to acheive this using Extension:CSS

{{#css: #mw-subcategories {display: none}  #mw-pages {display: none} }}

Customized collapse/expand/empty images broken after update

Hi,

I am having an issue with this extension after upgrading MW from 1.22 to 1.26. I have also updated my CategoryTree extension from whatever version I had installed a couple of years ago to the latest available version, so I am not sure to which of these upgrades my issue is related.

In our wiki, back in MW 1.22 and the old CT version, we had changed the color of the category tree bullets by changing MediaWiki:categorytree-collapse-bullet, MediaWiki:categorytree-expand-bullet and MediaWiki:categorytree-empty-bullet to something like this:

<span style="color:#ffd15a;">▼</span>

This was working fine, but now, in MW 1.26 with the latest CT version, if I click on a ► bullet to expand the category tree, the clicked bullet is replaced by:

<span style="color:#ffd15a;">▼</span>

... as if the contents of MediaWiki:categorytree-collapse-bullet were enclosed in <nowiki> tags.

Is this intentional behaviour? Or is it a bug?

Either way, how can I change the color (or content) of the bullets in the latest CategoryTree version?

Maybe (just thinking out loud here), editing MediaWiki:Common.css and adding a CategoryTreeToggle style definition there? Haven't tried this...

Thanks in advance

just started working on a mediawiki site and had issues with the CategoryTree 1.26 extension. I ended up using an older version (I used 1.23). My issue with the 1.26 CategoryTree extension was it hid all of the WYSIWG buttons for the wiki editor.

I did change the color of my triangles. The CSS looks different than yours in my version of CategoryTree. The triangle element had a class surrounded it, so it was easy to target. Hope that helps

@Rbirmann I've got the same "span" problem since my upgrade to MW1.26... Did you find something to fix it?

EDIT : ok sorry I just totally forgot that I changed MediaWiki:categorytree-collapse-bullet page long time ago! It's better to remove it and use CSS...

$wgMaxArticleSize conflicts with <CategoryTree> tag

A wrong value in this setting may cause that .js construction for categorytree tag exceeds this limit value. If you insert this tag and you see the plain text of the tag displayed instead of the tree with arrows to navigate, just try increasing the value of de config variable $wgMaxArticleSize. It worked on 1.27 version.

Using for subpages

Hello,

I'm wondering if it's possible to use this addon for subpages rather than categories, such as subpages in a custom namespace, much like the extension Extension:SubPageList, although included in this extension. This because it would allow me to unly use one extension for both and also not having to implement the javascript needed for collapsing page lists.

Best regards,

Stavflel

force categorytree to update when add new page.

I am invoking categorytree with the syntax {{#categorytree:Embryo|mode=pages|showcount|depth=2 etc. When I create a new page and add it to the category Embryo, categorytree will not list the new page. I can close/open the page that invoked categorytree, login again with no effect. If I look directly at the page Category:Embryo the new member page is listed immediately. The only way I can get the {{#categorytree:Embryo etc to update is to resave the page where it occurs. Same behavior if I use the tag syntax.

There must be a better way, I thought this function was dynamic. No obvious warnings of this behavior on the relevant help page or in discussions. Suggestions?

We would also like to know if there is a "fix" for this. I have noticed that updates of pages and categories are shown in categorytree with a long time difference. Maybe we have to run some kind of job to update the database in the background? I can reproduce this with mediawiki 1.27.0.

Count is correct but only gray arrows are shown in sidebar

Mediawiki 1.26.2

Try to get this working in my Sidebar using the default Vector skin.

The number of sub-pages and subcategories are correct but only a gray arrow is shown and so I can't traverse the category tree.

Interesting, for categories that have their own sub-categories, the arrow is completely gone!

Here are my  LocalSettings.php parameters:

$wgUseAjax = true;

require_once "$IP/extensions/CategoryTree/CategoryTree.php";

$wgCategoryTreeSidebarRoot = "Category:Sidebar";

$wgCategoryTreeSidebarOptions['showcount'] = true;

I can confirm the problem exists in a fresh installation of MediaWiki 1.26.2 installed from the bitnami MAMPstack + MediaWiki.

I've reverted to Medaiwiki 1.23.13 and the problem is absent.

A little surprised that the 6th top download extension (according to Special:ExtensionDistributor) can be incompatible with the latest mediawiki version that is almost 5 months old now.

I think I'm going to stick to the LTS versions of mediawiki from now on.

Se the topic above. Replacing "$content.find" with "$" in ext.categoryTree.js (to places) seems to fix the problem in MediaWiki 1.26.
