Show all hooks for specific page
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Is there a way to see the hooks that are called for a specific page and they order they are called in? Lorenmaxwell (talk) 01:35, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- You could enable Profiling.
- Generally speaking though, no. Bawolff (talk) 02:45, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- Wonderful -- that helped greatly! Lorenmaxwell (talk) 03:31, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
Is it possible to search for punctuation marks?
I have to search for all the pages that contain - > punctuation marks.
When I simply type the - > in the search field nothing is being found.
Is this type of search possible in MediaWiki? MrJConstantine (talk) 09:36, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- If you make use of CirrusSearch and set it up correctly, you can use "insource:/regex/" to search for specific characters. —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 11:17, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

Hunk #2 FAILED at 245 when applying MW 1.31.16 patch
I tried to apply the patch 1.31.16 to two 1.31.15 installations with the following result:

- You mean this one
- https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.31/mediawiki-1.31.16.patch.zip on top of this one: https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.31/mediawiki-1.31.15.zip ???
- Worked without a hitch for me with a clean apply. Are you sure of your versions ? —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 19:09, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
- yes. I downloaded the .gzip version though. All the patching went great on MW 1.35, but in both my tries with MW 1.31.15 I got the messeage above.
- In my second instance, I even had to patch the installation up to 1.15 which also went smootly, only the last patch showed the problem. Krabina (talk) 08:12, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- so you applied multiple patches on 1.31 ? First to bring it to 1.31.15 and then to 1.31.16 ? —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 10:08, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- in one case yes. It was on 1.31.12 and I brought it up to 1.31.15 and failed with 1.31.16.
- The other installation was already on 1.31.15 (by applying patches when they were issued). Krabina (talk) 10:19, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- k, what I think is the simplest, is to download a 1.31.5 original zip, unpack it next to your own installation (be careful not to override when unzipping). Then run diff -ruN 1.31.5-download/includes yourinstallation/includes
- just to see what the differences between the 2 bases are. —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 11:10, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

Problem with Varnish caching with Hitch
I'm using Varnish caching with Hitch for SSL on my wiki. I have finished setting up the wiki itself (Nginx) (8081) which is behind Varnish (8443) which is behind Hitch (443). I tried to access my site with SSL, but it redirects me directly to port 8081. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I use the aaPanel control panel, so if I generate a SSL certificate there, it will automatically apply it to my port 8081 site, and Varnish doesn't support SSL. So I generated a ZeroSSL certificate and placed it in /etc/cert/cert.pem.
This is my Varnish config (/etc/varnish/default.vcl):
https://gist.github.com/wolf20482/cc7d25b8674b969437b5193c2a836dba
This is my Hitch config (/etc/hitch/hitch.conf):
https://gist.github.com/wolf20482/9a1142f6e966fc1eb59611645c7eef26
This is my Nginx virtual host config:
https://gist.github.com/wolf20482/3ce1102dc3ae2aff0aa4f33192ab7bba
My wiki web address is https://scpvncommunitywiki.xyz (it will automatically redirect to 8081, the varnish backend, as you visit it)
Everything on the wiki is fine, except that when I visit it at port 443, it redirects to 8081, which is the varnish backend.
Special:Version information
MediaWiki: 1.36.1
PHP: 7.4.24 (fpm-fcgi)
MariaDB: 10.0.38-MariaDB
PS: The problem described above only happens when I visit https://scpvncommunitywiki.xyz (domain only), not https://scpvncommunitywiki.xyz/wiki/Trang_Chính Wolf20482 (talk) 07:46, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- What is $wgServer set to in your LocalSettings.php ?
- In your nginx you have
#REWRITE-START URL rewrite rule reference, any modification will invalidate the rewrite rules set by the panel include /www/server/panel/vhost/rewrite/scpvncommunitywiki.xyz.conf; #REWRITE-END
- Maybe its related to that? Bawolff (talk) 10:27, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

Cyrillic URL encode
URL problem:
Cyrillic renders correctly in MediaWiki Sidebar, but Cyrillic is encoded in articles(titles).
Example:
On other WiKi, there is no problem.
What is the problem?
MediaWiki 1.36.1
PHP 7.4.21 (apache2handler)
MariaDB 10.5.11-MariaDB-1
It is necessary to correctly display the Cyrillic alphabet in articles (headings), and encode the URL only when copying.
Thanks. 90.150.90.194 (talk) 18:24, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

- I dont see anything onviously wrong when i go to your site. Can you be more specific? Bawolff (talk) 10:26, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, the spam filter is in the way.
- When using the content(mw-toc-heading), the url is encoded. How to remove it?
- arch-cat.ru/index.php/Debian#URL encoded
- On other wiki, no problem.
- ru.wikisource.org/wiki/Александр_Сергеевич_Пушкин#URL not encoded
- When using content(mw-toc-heading), url is not encoded, encoded only when copied. How can I do the same?
- Thanks. 90.150.90.194 (talk) 19:57, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

Get database without running server
We have a wiki running on a vm, but this VM got corrupted so we can't run it anymore. We do have access to the files however. Is there a way to get the database when the VM is mounted? It should be a postgresql DB. 2A02:1810:849F:2100:36EE:1645:2D7D:A3DA (talk) 22:16, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

Display entry in category
I have entries that are a person's name. I've flagged all of these for a specific category and use their last name as a sort key. This works great for keeping all the Smith's under the "S" subheading.
However, is there a way to indicate how each entry should be displayed on the category page?
For instance, I'd like "John Smith" to appear under the "S" category, perhaps as "Smith, John"? 174.108.83.130 (talk) 23:49, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe extension:DisplayTitle does that, not sure Bawolff (talk) 10:23, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. It does 99% of what I want, but it is still putting "Smith, John" under "J". I'll dig further to try fix this 174.108.83.130 (talk) 18:51, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

Magic words in JWB [solved]
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Hi. It's been years since I've used magic words in AWB. I thought the syntax was s.t. like %%PAGENAME%%, but can't figure out how to make it work w JWB. I'd like to add a category to a batch of files that incorporates the file name. I could use { + {PAGENAME} + }, but I'd want to modify the results. (Each file conveniently starts with the first word of the appropriate cat, so with a couple runs I should be able to cat them all properly.)
Thanks, Kwamikagami (talk) 05:52, 3 October 2021 (UTC)

Fatal error on loading Main page
Hey All.
I upgraded (actually newly installing and transfering DB) MW from 1.34.0 to 1.36.2.
I think all DBs are succesfully installed but it makes error on Main page.
[ type fatal error on "Wikimedia\Timestamp\TimestampException" ]
when I added [ $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; ] on LocalSettings.php, it prints out.

I think this means that there was a timestamp with 2.02E+13 but I cannont find it. I guess that There wound be time difference error because it print out the time now as 2021-10-03 18:05:35 but it is 2021-10-04 03:06:35 here in Korea. (9 hours difference)
I don't know how I can fix it. can somebody help me? 58.143.52.4 (talk) 18:07, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think maybe a timestamp is missing a digit and its interpreting it as a unix timestamp instead.
- Normal timestamps are 14 digits in YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
- for the page in question, you could check in db what is the page_latest foeld for that page, which gives you a revision id. You could see what rev_timestamp is set to for the revision that has a rev_id matching the page_latest field. Bawolff (talk) 02:59, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

Right-to-Left issue: Flip parenthesis inside a link
MediaWiki 1.36.1 in Hebrew.
In the following text, the parenthesis adjacent to the English text should appear from the right but appears from the left.
[[מתודת document.write()]]
I tried to fix it with a template changing right to left.
Template:מל
<span dir="ltr">{{{1}}}</span>
Input
[[מתודת {{מל|document.write()}}]]
Output
[[מתודת document.write()]]
My question
As my fix try failed, how would you suggest to try to fix it? 49.230.58.235 (talk) 00:41, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think that's just how the HTML pre tag works. Jonathan3 (talk) 11:36, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
[[מתודת ()document.write]]
You could just type it the wrong way round :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 13:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Jonathan3 thanks, I really want to avoid such tricks to ensure easy maintenance in the long run.
- I might do it with JavaScript though. 49.230.62.107 (talk) 15:25, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- What effect (overall) are you trying to achieve? Jonathan3 (talk) 16:57, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Jonathan3
- Just that the parenthesis in the output will be on the right. 49.230.62.107 (talk) 01:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
welcome to BIDI land!
So computers don't know if the parenthesis go with the hebrew or the english text.
One way to fix: add ‎ immediately after the parenthisis. This is an invisible character called a LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK that looks like an english character in terms of directionality. If () is surrounded by "english" characters (including ‎) on both sides they should behave like english parenthesis
[[מתודת document.write()‎]]
The other alternative is like you were doing with the direction tag, but just for the english part.
[[מתודת document.write()|מתודת <span dir="auto">document.write()</span>]]
As you can see, the wikitext source looks messed up but it should look fine when rendered. (Dir=auto is newer compared to dir=ltr. Its a bit less confusing how it works compared to dir=ltr. Either should work in this case.).
if typing it out in a ltr wiki, the wikitext source looks like
[[מתודת document.write()|מתודת <span dir="auto">document.write()</span>]]
There are also some other override characters. Honestly, they are rarely needed and a bit confusing how they work and difficult to type. 99% of the time ‎ ‏ (Or equivalently &רלמ; . RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK is the only one with a hebrew equivalent. The hebrew equivalent is a custom mediawiki thing and doesn't work in normal html) and <span dir=auto>. If you want to learn more on the subject see https://www.w3.org/International/articles/inline-bidi-markup/uba-basics and https://www.w3.org/International/articles/inline-bidi-markup/ which also lists the more obscure control characters and what they do. Bawolff (talk) 02:47, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot Bawolff, I should seek some single-character-character which represents the multi-character-character ‎ 49.230.62.107 (talk) 03:57, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Things starting with & in wikitext are just another way to write a character. E.g. you can write → directly or you can do → which will make the same character.
- Similarly, you can write ‎ directly. It can just be difficult because its an invisible character, so its hard to copy and paste. On windows you can insert by holding down alt, typing a + character and then 200E (200F if you want rlm instead of lrm) Bawolff (talk) 00:27, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Creating New Footer Icon
Hello i am trying to customize new footer icon
$wgFooterIcons['poweredby']['myicon'] = [
"src" => "/path/to/my/image.png",
// you may also use a direct path to the source, e.g. "http://example.com/my/custom/path/to/MyCustomLogo.png"
"url" => "http://example.com/",
"alt" => "Some text here...",
// For HiDPI support, you can specify paths to larger versions of the icon.
"srcset" =>
"/path/to/1.5x_version.png 1.5x, " .
"/path/to/2x_version.png 2x",
// If you have a non-default sized icon you can specify the size yourself.
"height" => "31",
"width" => "88",
];
I know where to add text and url... which of them will i edit to the image path.... Thatnewman (talk) 16:35, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- The one labelled src.
- Srcset is optional, its used to load higher resolution versions on browsers like iphones where the screen is higher resolution than normal screens. If you dont want that just dont include a srcset key. Bawolff (talk) 02:26, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
I can't get my Wiki website to get indexed by Google Search Console
Hello, everyone.
I just created my MediaWiki website 2 days ago. I'm used to WordPress websites and have experience with PHP and SEO but the MediaWiki stuff is somewhat new to me. My website is working perfectly, I'm using Google Analytics with no issues and I ran a bunch of OnPage SEO reports which say my website is fully working.
However, I added my MediaWiki website in Google Search Console and in URL inspection tool, when I ask Google Search Console to index my website, they refuse indexation based on results in the real time test. In this real time results my site doesn't even get crawled. Also, I have a fully working sitemap.xml file which I added with AutoSitemap extension for MediaWiki. My XML sitemap is getting indexed by some other bunch of 3rd party tools around the internet, but Google can't recognize the file in Search Console.
My Wiki is this one, in pt_BR language: https://newworld.wiki.br/
Does anyone have experience with what I should do in this situation? Anything to point me to the right place? Thanks a lot! 2804:14D:90A8:8251:8906:3583:833B:9FF0 (talk) 17:15, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

Can't Edit Main Page after Deleting Revisions
Is there a way to overcome the following error?
MWexception ... could not find text for current revision
It prevents the user from editing the Main page.
Said user is a teacher in our network who has been using MediaWiki since 2009 to get learners to create a knowledge base. This semester, a student pointed out that it was possible to use page history to access pages from previous years. In this case, that'd be a strategy to cheat in the assignment.
One solution found was to delete revisions.
Help:RevisionDelete - MediaWiki
This was done directly in the database. And it was working... until the user deleted revisions for the Main page.
Now, the Main page says that revision number NNNN doesn't exist and that it should be solved in the deletion log... which is empty.
Attempting to edit the Main page produces the aforementioned exception (which is apparently a “Sanity check for bug 37225”).
Adding and editing other pages still works.
The database backup would be difficult to retrieve.
What's the best course of action, at this point? Is there a way to create a new Main page? Creating a blank revision?
Thanks! AlexEnkerli (talk) 18:33, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- > This was done directly in the database. And it was working... until the user deleted revisions for the Main page.
- The page you linked does not suggest directly editing the db. Can you list exactly what commands you did?
- Generally speaking,bad things happen when you delete the most recent revision of a page (you should first make a new revision without the info and delete the old one).
- If you just modified rev_deletrd field you could just set it back to 0 on the page in question. If you actually deleted the whole row, you could try putting it back, or just delete the whole page entirely and recreate it. Bawolff (talk) 02:22, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Bawolff: The teacher did delete the entire row for the latest revision. So I guess the best thing to do is to delete the page. How do we recreate it afterwards? (I did retrieve the Main page's content from a cache. I just want to know how to create a new Main page.)
- Of course, you're right, the instructions didn't talk about the db. The teacher and a ped counsellor were already using the db to delete pages in bulk. I do realize it wasn't the proper approach. It's the one which was most compatible with existing practice.
- For reference, here's how it went:
- We all went to the `revision` table and tested with a single revision, then with revisions for the same page. Once we checked that it had the desired result, we set about doing the same for all the other unwanted revisions. If memory serves, there were 17k of them.
- With the `revision` table set to 250 rows, we'd select all rows, unselect the initial and most recent revisions, and click delete. The teacher finished that process.
- So... As long as I know how to create a new Main page, I guess it'll be the best approach. Maybe I'll try that on a separate instance. AlexEnkerli (talk) 15:36, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- There is a workaround. Create a new page called "Main Page new". Put some content in it. Then move "Main Page new" to "Main Page" and let it overwrite the old one. Buster2223 (talk) 23:41, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
Trouble with transfer/upgrading
I have a wiki at https://www.informationism.orgthat I had hosted at Siteground. Because it was going to cost me so much to continue hosting it there I moved to Hostinger and got them to transfer the site. However after transfer there was no content on the pages. This issue may be a well known one: Project:Support desk/Flow/2015/03#h-Page_Content_not_showing._Header_&_side_menu_show.-2015-03-17T22:07:00.000Z and Manual:Common errors and symptoms#All pages have no content.2C but when editing a page the wiki text is there
The advice is to upgrade which I attempted to do so. However when I upgraded I got the message that the wiki couldn't access the database. So now I have two installations of mediawiki that don't work and Hostsinger say they can't help because they are not "software developers" is there anyone here who could help me get back on my feet? Andrewrutherford (talk) 23:23, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hmm mw 1.16 and php 5.3. That is pretty old. So yeah, you need to upgrade mediawiki (or downgrade pcre that php is linked to)
- To start with, to upgrade mw you would have to upgrade php.
- If command line php says it cant connect to db, that might meandb drivers are not installed for it or not enabled in php.ini. remember that cli php is totally different than web php and can have different version or config. Bawolff (talk) 02:15, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks very much for your help. On my new installation: https://www.informationism.org/mediawiki-1.25.2/index.php It says:
- =Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.=
- Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.
- (Cannot access the database)
- Is there any advised quick fix for this? Andrewrutherford (talk) 07:49, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
- Sounds rough. Make sure you keep good backups. Keep in mind you'll run into trouble with different versions of mediawiki, mysql, and php.
- I think your best bet is to do gradual upgrades until you get to a Mediawiki version that supports php7.1. Then do a dump and a fresh install on the new server. (to change to 7.1 How to Change the PHP Version of Your Website – Hostinger Tutorials)
- It's kind of lame that your new host didn't know this. Another route might be just get a refund and try someone else. Buster2223 (talk) 19:53, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

When I click on an item to translate it, BOTH the english text AND the text of the modification area appear now in fixed case (in previous versions ONLY the translated text was concerned and the english text remain in police without serif).
Regression:
- font of english text MUST not be changed since it is NOT concerned by the preference option
- font of english text must remain the reference of what is displayed on the web page
- lost of immediate visual performance about the text i translate (the EN origin, the FR target)
- lose of space ont the page - in this case
Nb: skin Vector new or old dont solve the problem.
Any idea ?

Documentation on the benefits of Elasticsearch in Wikibase and what is missing without?
have had a look at each of the documentation links but I am still coming up short on why a user would need to run Elasticsearch as an extra feature, and what is missing without. Is there anything anyone can point to? Or if it's missing from the docs, is it something we can contribute to filling in? Beet keeper (talk) 12:44, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Suddenly magic word isn't effective
MediaWiki 1.36.1
I have checked various webpages which got the __NOINDEX__ magic word in the start of their input and in all of them didn't have <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> anywhere in the output HTML source (CTRL+U).
In previous checks a few months back all webpages I checked had it and I don't know what happened that suddenly they don't; what's worth checking? 49.230.57.142 (talk) 13:35, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe Manual:$wgExemptFromUserRobotsControl? Jonathan3 (talk) 17:34, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Jonathan3.
- Firstly, I should apologize for my wrong deduction in the original post; by "all webpages I checked had it" I actually meant to different webpages that are created by the system and confused that I got the same test result for the aforementioned articles.
- I also never worked with Manual:$wgExemptFromUserRobotsControl before.
- ==Change==
- I have added to LocalSettings.php the following code line:In my understanding it means "Don't restrict any
$wgExemptFromUserRobotsControl = [];
__NOINDEX__and/or__INDEX__magic words;". - ==Outcome==
- After the change I have tested several articles to which I have added
__NOINDEX__and all these had<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow"/>in their source code. - I also tested several articles to which I didn't add
__NOINDEX__and all these didn't have<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow"/>. - So it seems to me that now the website works as exptected. 49.230.62.230 (talk) 19:57, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Main page title not visible in URL when $wgUseFileCache is enabled

Hey,
I'm having some kind of problem with displaying the main page title in the URL when $wgUseFileCache is enabled. When I access my domain by simply entering domain.com in the URL I get taken to my wiki and the URL looks like domain.com/wiki/. The main page title is not shown in the URL unless I enter it manually domain.com/wiki/Main_Page_Title Both ways work but I would like to show the main page title at all times, even when $wgUseFileCache is enabled. Is that possible? Could someone please point me in the right direction? Mukilol2 (talk) 16:05, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

We are currently running Mediawiki 1.15 on CentOS release 6.10, plan is to migrate to Centos 7 and upgrade at the same time. Can you please advise how I should do it ?
1) Migrate MW 1.15 to new server and then upgrade
Or
2) Install MW 1.35 with latest mysql, php etc.. and migrate
Thanks,

- I spent ages finding Project:Support desk/Flow/2021/09#h-Need_some_help_with_upgrading_mediawiki-2021-09-14T12:52:00.000Z which is pretty much the same question, then realised you'd asked that question too :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 17:29, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- I have been trying 1) moving existing version and upgrade 2) building new server with packages required for 1.35 and migrate but not any luck so wanted to make sure what approach I should be taking.
- Appreciate if you could provide some input.
- Thanks, Pritesh j thakkar (talk) 18:39, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Just download everything new on the new server, transfer across your LocalSettings.php and whatever else like images, and the old database, and run update.php. Jonathan3 (talk) 21:03, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Though there are lots of pages about this so it's best to follow them rather than only what I've written above :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 21:03, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

- I haven't a clue. In your situation I'd just start from scratch again, seeing as it worked to begin with.
- When I used mysqldump and mysql I didn't use any extra parameters beyond username, password and database name.
- Maybe you need to empty the database before using mysql again? Jonathan3 (talk) 16:15, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- I was able to fix it by dropping/refreshing database. Here is what I did.
- mysql -u root -p
- drop database wikidb;
- show databases;
- CREATE DATABASE wikidb;
- GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wikidb.* TO '<USER>'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '<PASSWORD>' WITH GRANT OPTION;
- FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
- exit;
- gunzip -c wikidb.sql.gz | sudo mysql -C -u <USER> -p wikidb
- php update.php

- Your wget (or something that it relies on) is outdated. Wikimedia uses letsencrypt certificates and the root for those kinds of certificates recently expired. Some OSes and some software on those OSes that have not been updated in the last half year might not be able to connect for that reason. See also 2021 Let's Encrypt root expiry —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 22:10, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi everyone.
Whenever I go on my wiki or make any changes to my wiki pages i get redirected and receive a message that suddenly started today:
Bad title
The requested page title is too long. It must be no longer than 255 bytes in UTF-8 encoding.
Can anyone explain to me what this means and how i can resolve it?
TIA Thepainking (talk) 14:49, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Error is saying pagd title is too long.
- What is the name of the page you are editing.
- Could be some issue with rewrite rules or proxy servers if you have that set up. Bawolff (talk) 05:55, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

Wanted Pages ghost entries
In our Wiki, there are several instances in the Wanted Pages section where it claims a group of articles link back to a deleted article, despite all links being purged from said pages.
Example would be that there was once a page named "The Fairy's Wing". Mediawiki claims that there is a hyperlink on 21 pages, but none of them even have those three words.
Currently on MediaWiki version 1.35.1 Suzzie2 (talk) 18:40, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Example here. Suzzie2 (talk) 18:47, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hmm. Looks like a job didnt get executed at one point.
- some options:
- You could try making a null edit (where you add a newline to end of page) to all pages alleged to link there
- you can use Api:Purge to purge cache via api (i just tested that with Greenface article and it worked). Make sure linkupdates option is on
- you can run refreshLinks.php (generally slow if you have lots of articles) Bawolff (talk) 05:53, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hey, thank you for your response! Can you show me what you ran for Greenface? I'm trying to understand what to enter where, and the example for Api:Purge that MediaWiki provides is flying straight over my head. Suzzie2 (talk) 22:10, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- I used https://wiki.massivecraft.com/Special:ApiSandbox#action=purge&format=json&forcelinkupdate=1&titles=Greenface
- To make the request.
- Just making dummy edits to pages is probably the easiest option. Bawolff (talk) 00:32, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for this! I have one more question for you- I'm very unfamiliar when using the API. When I enter the titles into the bar and hit submit request, I get an error: error":{"code":"mustbeposted","info":"The \"purge\" module requires a POST request.
- At the risk of sounding dumb, what is a POST request? Suzzie2 (talk) 14:09, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Its kind of like when you submit a form vs when you just click on a link or go to a url (which is called a GET request). POST requests have extra data in them that's not included in the url [note: i oversimplified this a bit, there are a bunch of other technical details]. In web browsers they are often used for things that take some action (where GET is more read only or "idempotent")
- When using Special:ApiSandbox if you press the blue "make request" button in the top right, instead of copying the url, it will submit the request as a POST request. Bawolff (talk) 06:34, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

MediaWiki registration spam despite anti-spam measures
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Despite removing user registration I'm getting registration spam (users like "AJEShasta742286"). I followed the recommendations on how to secure my mediawiki from abuse and spam after a large-ish spam attack, so this comes unexpected. I believe there's a mechanism I still don't understand; There should be no possibility for a normal user to register right now and I don't see possibility any in my wiki as there is no "register" in the special pages or anywhere else in the wiki, the only thing someone should be able to do is to request an account because I installed the addon Confirm User Accounts.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
I'm using mediawiki 1.361 and PHP 7.4.21 (fpm-fcgi) with the following LocalSettings.php:

- I was using ConfirmEdit which seemed absolutely useless until I moved to QuestyCaptcha. That seems to work! Jonathan3 (talk) 10:22, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry for not knowing the answer to your actual question :-)
- What do you see when you go to Special:UserLogin or Special:CreateAccount? Jonathan3 (talk) 10:27, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Good hunch! Though it's only showing "Create another account" on the bottom when logged in as sysop. As an anonymous user "Create another account" isn't there as expected from the settings in LocalSettings.php.
- Anonymous users trying to use Special:CreateAccount (which isn't visible in Special pages) are redirected to Special:RequestAccount, this is also what I expect. Hórdómr (talk) 10:42, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I noticed many pages with the category "Dual template Parameters" (actually 'dubbele sjabloonparameters') This seems to be related to the use of a so called infobox is there any use or is it a bug in some template? 83.81.245.170 (talk) 13:26, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- This happens when one of the templates uses the same parameter name twice. This is an error, because only the last parameter with the same name will be used, meaning your editors may get confused as to why the parameter they're editing doesn't change in the template. Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 17:08, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you, will try to find out what parameter name is used twice .
- Next a real bug, I think, I used the to prevent it from showing up, still after each source edit it shows up once.
- Hmm, makes some sense as, if it is an error report, the error itself happens after each edit. 83.81.245.170 (talk) 21:06, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

Settings, there are NO boxes to check for several areas, and I do NOT want Surname in Uppercase
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Under General Settings, these help pages show a box to be checked for Surname Uppercase, Enable FamilySearch and Problem Alerts. But on my computer, there are NO boxes showing at all in these areas. The program is not allowing me to uncheck the unseen box for Surname Uppercase / Display surnames uppercase. I do not like surnames in uppercase and have never used that feature. In RootsMagic ver 7, it was turned off. I do not know what is wrong, I can not get it to change to NORMAL, showing of surnames; ie: Kester vs the uppercase of KESTER. It did not transfer from my ver 7 settings, and as I already pointed out there are NO boxes showing as are shown in your examples, so there is no box to UN-check to turn this feature off. Can this please be either corrected in a program update, or can someone please advise how to disable this feature, Please! little ps: This MediaWiki is not currently letting me log in with my old user name and password, nor is it letting me open a new account, so it is showing me that it will add this topic anonymously. 2601:647:C803:1E20:244E:9EF2:5CE6:480D (talk) 00:00, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

- Link to Github Repository
- Add the Postgres add-on in Heroku
- Run composer update
- Add the Heroku postgres credentials to LocalSettings.php
- Run composer update in terminal
- Push local postgres stuff to the heroku one using heroku pg:push

I've tried running the update script multiple times already. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Honeycombi98 (talk) 13:25, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Did you run the mediawiki installer to begin with? Are you sure database/schema name are correct? Bawolff (talk) 06:27, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not sure which mediawiki installer your referring to, but I followed the interactive prompt to get everything to work locally. I'm also sure that my LocalSettings.php has the correct heroku database information. Honeycombi98 (talk) 19:28, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
warning stat failed for WikibaseRepo.FederatedProperties.entitytypes.php
Turning on error reporting in my wiki, I am seeing this warning:
Warning: filesize(): stat failed for /var/www/vhosts/wiki_1_36/w/extensions/Wikibase/repo/includes../../WikibaseRepo.FederatedProperties.entitytypes.php in /var/www/vhosts/wiki_1_36/w/includes/debug/MWDebug.php on line 593
I can see that this file exists in /var/www/vhosts/wiki_1_36/w/extensions/Wikibase/repo, which is one level up not two levels up. Is there an include somewhere trying to go two levels up? It would seem so from this filesize() call.
I am on MediaWiki 1.36.2. Lwangaman (talk) 15:47, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- actually it's not just an issue of going two levels up, I believe there's an issue of a missing "/" character, or better yet an extra ".." after "repo/includes". Without that extra ".." the stat should work correctly. Still not sure what is calling filesize() here. Lwangaman (talk) 16:40, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- Can you include your LocalSettings.php (minus passwords and secret keys) Bawolff (talk) 06:25, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Show recent changes since start of last session
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I'd like to show all the recent changes since a registered user's last session.
For example, if a registered user visited on Jan 1 and then again on Jan 20, for the entire session on Jan 20 I'd like to show the recent changes since their session on Jan 1.
If they visit again on Jan 25, then for their entire session on Jan 25 I'd like to show the recent changes since their session on Jan 20.
Is there anywhere that captures the start of the last session even though a new session has started?
If not, what would be the best hook to get the session ID from so that I could store this myself? I'm currently looking at BeforeInitialize, but am not sure that's the best one. Lorenmaxwell (talk) 13:13, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- This unmaintained extension might be a good place to start - https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LastLoginTime
- You could maybe calculate the necessary days for the days= url filter on special:recentchanges. Jonathan3 (talk) 13:31, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, Jonathan3. I had looked at that but I believe it only shows the last time a user fully logged in, not the last time they started a session. Since a user can stay logged in for a year, it's not quite what I was hoping for. Lorenmaxwell (talk) 17:36, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- I see. You could maybe look at how email notification of changes to watched pages work.
- That is able to show "changes since last visit". Jonathan3 (talk) 18:39, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- Great idea -- I'll dig around there! Lorenmaxwell (talk) 18:46, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
How to make a tooltip? Can't make heads or tails of Help pages
I have a tiny personal wiki but am not very skilled and for the life of me, can't figure how to make a tooltip. I just want to show readers a sentence or two of more detail (text) if they hover over my tooltip'ed text. That's all I want! laugh
Googling produces results like:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tooltips which says use
{{H:title|The tool tip|The text}} - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Hover_title which defines a Hover title or something.
But they both seem to point to:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Tooltip which has completely different examples
And then they're all talking about templates, which has this god-awful page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:A_quick_guide_to_templates
If I try a single one of the tooltip examples, my wiki text has a red-colored, e.g., "Template:Tooltip " which has a tooltip of "Template:Tooltip (page does not exist)".
I seem to be completely missing one or more things here. Do I have to install some extension in my common.css or something? Do I have to make some new separate Template page for the actual text of every single tooltip? (This would be incredibly labyrinthine - I just want a 10 word tooltip!)
I'm so lost I don't know where to start.
I'm using MediaWiki 1.35.1.
Thanks if you can help! RedKnight7 (talk) 13:20, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- The extension SimpleTooltip will do this and is easy to use.
- I'd link to it but can't copy and paste into this page any more on the iPhone. Jonathan3 (talk) 13:25, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, you must mean MediaWiki's Extension:SimpleTooltip. I could get this to work. So I appreciate it.
- It's a little buggy; it indents everything down the rest of the page, to whatever level the paragraph that the tooltip was in. I'm presenting technical analyses and have lots of bullets and indenting. As a workaround I have to force the tooltip's paragraph to have zero indentation. So it's kind of gimped. I see templates for Outdent but pfft...
- Anyway, you've shown me to an extension that also held my hand for how to successfully install an extension. Maybe I'll look at some of those other more sophisticated tooltip extensions some day. But for today, it's enough that I sunk four hours already just to get one buggy tooltip to show, lol.
- If anybody knows a way to stop SimpleTooltip from forcing indentation on the remainder of the page, that's great. RedKnight7 (talk) 11:18, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- What do you have that it messes up? I'm still on MW 1.34 (naughty me) and haven't noticed any problems. Jonathan3 (talk) 19:30, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, bullets (*) and indents (:). Try indenting a paragraph you have a SimpleTooltip in. Eh, make it three colons.
- Doesn't it indent all the subsequent paragraphs on the page, for you? RedKnight7 (talk) 19:58, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- You could use a title attribute on a span, div or abbr element
- e.g.
- Bawolff (talk) 06:23, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
<span title="tooltip here">normal text</span>
- Hi, Yes that works, but it doesn't signal that the "normal text" has a tooltip to view. A reader would have to accidentally hover over it to realize that one is there. I guess I could force it by making the normal text say "(tooltip)". So there's that. But it's still not as nice as the type of tooltip (with underscored text) that is commonly used. Hmm.
- Thanks. RedKnight7 (talk) 11:48, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think the dotted underscore comes from using the abbr attribute instead of span.
- You can also use css to add an underline via the style attribute (Either directly, or via border-bottom) Bawolff (talk) 04:40, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

User doesn't have edit rights
I've created a new wiki with me as the admin. In my preferences page, I see I'm part of the autoconfirmed users and users. But in the user list special page my user is listed without these two groups (it is in bureaucrat, interface administrator, administrator). As a result, I can't edit any pages. In fact, the group drop down in that page doesn't have those groups either.
What is the result of this and how to fix it? Maybe I should have a designated 'admin' user and then create a normal user for me to use that for edits? 84.111.224.227 (talk) 07:57, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

- I looked at the troubleshooting section for VisualEditor and it says: "Ensure that the mediawiki container name does not equal to the domain the wiki is running on. If both names are equal, the api will try to connect to the domain the wiki is running on, but only receive the local ip of the container. This will cause errors when ssl is enabled."

- Hallo!
- Existiert die genannte Datei "/mnt/web304/c0/87/52226087/htdocs/medwiki/includes/specialpage/SpecialPageFactory.php" auf dem Webserver denn? Falls nicht ist beim Umzug etwas schiefgegangen, denn sie sollte Teil der MediaWiki-Anwendung sein.
- Bitte auch mal die Dateisystemberechtigungen überprüfen. Darf der Webserver-Benutzer auf die Code-Dateien zugreifen?
- Um welche Version von MediaWiki handelt es sich? Gibt es Details zur Serverumgebung? Osnard (talk) 09:51, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hallo, ja die Datei existiert noch/wieder auf dem Server.
- Server liegt bei Strato. Ich bin gerade am prüfen der dateiberechtigungen. danke für den tip. MarkusBoehm85 (talk) 12:59, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- Dateiberechtigungen wurden nun auf 755 gesetzt trotzdem kommt der Fehler weiterhin genau gleich.
- Es handelt sich um die Version 1.32 des MediaWiki. MarkusBoehm85 (talk) 06:27, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
Class 'SpecialUserLogin' not foundbedeutet, dass der MediaWiki-Classloader entweder die Datei nicht laden konnte, oder dass die Klasse/Datei nicht am Classloader registiert ist. Ersteres haben wir bereits abusgeschloßen.- Existiert denn in der Datei
autoload.phpder entsprechende Eintrag? https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/1.32.6/autoload.php#L1416 - Generell würde ich empfehlen auf die MediaWiki Version 1.35 (derzeitiger Long Term Support Release) zu aktualisieren.
- Sind denn Erweiterungen installiert, welche das Login-Verfahren beeinflußen? Z.B. Extension:Auth_remoteuser oder Extension:PluggableAuth?
- P.S.: Ich sehe gerade, dass es im Zusammenhang mit der SpecialPageFactory eigentlich "Userlogin" heißen müsste, nicht "SpecialUserLogin": https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/1.32.6/includes/specialpage/SpecialPageFactory.php#L104
- Ich vermute daher, dass es auch irgendetwas mit einer Erweiterung oder einem Eintrag in der LocalSettings.php zu tun haben könnte. Osnard (talk) 06:15, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Noch eine Idee: Es könnte an einem "Redirect Loop" liegen. Das scheint bei einem Server-Umzug nicht unwahrscheinlich. Bitte mal die Konfigurationen zu Manual:$wgUsePathInfo und Manual:$wgArticlePath, sowie eventuelle URL-Rewrite-Rules in der Webserver-Konfiguration prüfen. Osnard (talk) 06:19, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

How to render uploaded text file inside another page of mediawiki similar to image ?
Please let us know, someone knows this AshwiniUpasani (talk) 09:03, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

How to hide few content of page of mediawiki based on sitename
In the media wiki page, we want to hide few content of the page based on the sitename.

- Please have a look at Help:Magic_words#Technical_metadata and Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#ifeq. You should be able to do something like
{{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Wiki1|Text for wiki 1|Text for other wikis}}Osnard (talk) 10:01, 11 October 2021 (UTC) - Btw. if you meant "pagename" rather than "sitename", this is also possible using

CSS per category
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I can set CSS per namespace in Common.css, but can't work out whether this is possible per category. I don't think so but it seems to have been possible 11 years ago: Project:Support desk/Flow/2011/04#h-Css_for_categories-2011-04-02T16:54:00.000Z. Thanks for any advice. Jonathan3 (talk) 09:56, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- The body element has a different class depending on the page title. You could use that. Bawolff (talk) 19:37, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. That could be useful but not in my case, unless I were to rename the pages. I'll likely move them to a separate namespace and apply CSS that way (see Project:Support desk/Flow/2021/10#h-Move_every_page_in_a_category_to_custom_namespace-2021-10-11T09:59:00.000Z).

Move every page in a category to custom namespace
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Is there a quick way of doing this?
I'd be happy for the pages to remain in the category (I can remove that later using ReplaceText).
My reason for considering using namespaces instead of categories is to stop the pages (ordinarily) showing up on search results and (less importantly) to indicate that the pages are of a different type by the namespace itself and by a using different page background colour. Jonathan3 (talk) 09:59, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- One simple way would be to save the list of pages into a text file, then use "search&replace" on that file to compose the target page names and feed it into the command line script Manual:MoveBatch.php.
- The list of pages can either be obtained from the respective category page, or by using the MediaWiki API. Osnard (talk) 10:09, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you :-)
- Mainly for my own reference: there are further ideas on the talk page at Manual talk:MoveBatch.php under the heading "Moving a bunch of pages to another namespace". Jonathan3 (talk) 15:39, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks again. This worked perfectly! Jonathan3 (talk) 21:31, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

- > Email adress? not working. Apparently I need to install an extra extension, thanks for telling me that, did not lose 30mn trying to find out why it wasn't working
- You don't? Idk even know what you could install that would be relavent. If you selected disable during the install process you would have to change it.
- To confirm, the error message is incorrect password? (And not say something about session hijacking)?
- For the purpose of debugging can you set your password to something else (as the following will reveal what it is to us):
- Can you enable mediawiki debug log (see How to debug) and give us the output when trying to login. Can you also include the row from the user table corresponding to your user and tell us what you think the password is? Bawolff (talk) 19:35, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- It seems I do, because mail simply does not work, despite being the right mail adress. I saw a post on this board that you need to install an SMTP extension.
- Yes, the message is indeed incorrect password.
- I don't understand what kind of debug I'm supposed to choose, there is a ton of them. Themistik (talk) 19:49, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- I found out by changing my password to something simple, without letters, numbers or special characters.
- Apparently you're not allowed to put special characters into your password otherwise it will simply not work. Great major security issue here.
- Solved, but not really solved. Themistik (talk) 19:58, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

How to securely appoint an helper editor?
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
MediaWiki 1.36.1, all core website, with just one user (for myself); only I and users I appoint can edit the website.
My website may be starting to become too large for me to maintain it myself and I would need to appoint an helper, a general content editor which by definition most of hers/his edits would be dwarf edits, typo fixing, wikization and alike.
Is there any guide on this particular problem and how to solve it? How to do it securely by any mean of information security? How to "correctly" monitor edits by the helper (maybe there is something extra to contribs available and handy without installing any extension?)
How would you suggest to do that? 182.232.53.152 (talk) 08:03, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

White screen after forcing https

I am running MW 1.35.0, MySQL 5.7.33, PHP 7.4 on shared webspace (ionos 1&1) and have recently activated a SSL-certificate for the page.
When I just set $wgServer = "https:// ...;" nothing happened.
When I set $wgForceHTTPS = true; The Wiki only shows a white page, no favicon. Oddly Special:Version loads nicely with a green and closed lock symbol.
I called my provider and everything seems to work fine on their end.
php-Error logs don't show anything.

- Hi and thanks for your help.
- so meanwhile I could use the wiki with a secure connection on FireFox seemingly without issues. Chrome still showed a white screen with following Error in the browser console:
GET <Wiki address> net::ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR 200- Also, but I don't know if this is related. After I tried to use HTTPS yesterday I couldn't log into the wiki using chrome this morning. The problem persisted even when I changed back to http. Is this a separate issue?
- Finally I stumbled across this and now both issues went away. I only sort of know what I am doing here, so should I make sure output compression works?

Unable to edit over a VPN
Hi,
I have a mediawiki used as a user knowledgebase at work, in the office. But over a VPN from home, I can't edit, but I can read the pages. Pressing Save, or Preview, does nothing. Does anyone have any idea what am I doing wrong? CherryHinton (talk) 10:59, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Easy way to find URL for an image?
I'm trying to put a background (watermark) image on a page and found this code:
<div style="background-image: url('image_path');">As I understand it, I'd need to log onto my host site's server to find this actual URL.
Isn't there any way for me to find the URL through my wiki's interface (like, on the image's page), rather than go through that rigmarole every time I need a URL? Seems like my wiki ought to be able to tell me, since obviously it's aware of it already. Somehow.
This is for a tiny personal wiki (MW v 1.35.1) where the images are internal to my site and everything on the wiki is mine.
Thanks if you can help! RedKnight7 (talk) 11:54, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- I don't think you would use the file path. You could use the absolute URL from your wiki, e.g. on https://www.example.com/wiki/File:Background.jpg click on the image and it'll be something like https://www.example.com/wiki/images/a/b/Background.jpg Jonathan3 (talk) 19:56, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Ah right I see it now... I didn't think to look there. Many thanks!
- Still can't get it to show as a background image though. Nothing happens. Oh well, I'm not going to worry about this any more for now. RedKnight7 (talk) 20:54, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- So that should work (background-image in common.css). In your web browser there is an inspect element feature where you can see what css applies to an element which can help you figure out why its not working. Bawolff (talk) 16:26, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe you could include it using Common.css based on the page name. Jonathan3 (talk) 21:24, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Nope, I tried it and it doesn't work. it's discussed here: Project:Support desk/Flow/2016/08#h-How_to_use_an_image_as_a_background_for_a_wiki_page-Internal_error-2016-08-19T08:16:00.000Z. Jonathan3 (talk) 21:30, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- All they are saying over there is the person could not add it to common.css as they weren't an admin, but it should work fine if they were an admin. Bawolff (talk) 16:28, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- I must have failed to make it work for some other reason :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 18:06, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- You can't include background-image in inline css (stylr attribute). You have to put it in mediawiki:common.css or use extension:TemplateStyles
- As Johnathan said, be sure to use a direct url to the image or thumbnail,not the file description page Bawolff (talk) 16:22, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
Skin Minerva styles
Hi,
It appears that my site (https://en.famepedia.org) is loading skins.minerva.content.styles instead of skins.minerva.base.styles...

If statement in Template:Infobox breaking lines outside Infobox
Hello everyone, how are you?
I'm having a strange issue and I can't find a way to fix this.
I'm developing a New World wiki in portuguese language and I'm using an Infobox to display certain details about game items in my wiki. I started using #if and #ifeq statements so I can use parameters as optional. When I don't add them, they shouldn't show up. This is working correctly. However, whenever I don't add a specific parameter, a new paragraph/line break is created in the HTML just before the Infobox. This is quite strange and adds a lot of space between the wiki page title and the rest of the content, where my Infobox starts.
Does anyone know how to fix this weird behavior? I have no idea how.
This is the infobox template I'm using: https://newworld.wiki.br/w/index.php?title=Template:Infobox
This is an example of page using this infobox template where I didn't add some parameters and for each parameter I don't add, a new paragraph line is inserted in the top of the content: https://newworld.wiki.br/wiki/Escudo_Circular_de_A%C3%A7o
As you can see, there are 5 paragraphs added with no content before the infobox.
Does anyone have a clue about what's going on?
I appreciate your help. 2804:14D:90A8:8E77:D927:5272:C882:8F07 (talk) 17:17, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- It's a pain in the neck, but all the line returns between your if statements are probably doing this.
- If that's the case, then one solution would be to make sure all the if statements are on one line.
- I think the line returns appear before the table because the if statements are outside the table structure, i.e. not within tr or td tags. Jonathan3 (talk) 19:48, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- I had a similar issue but with #if statements and inside the table. For me, it went away when I inserted the last pipe for the else statement.
- Could it possibly work if you wrap an if around the ifeq, so it only gets evaluated when the variable is not empty? ThiloSch (talk) 08:23, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- So, I tried almost EVERYTHING I could think of, with no success. The only thing I was able to change is that the line breaks are now inside the infobox and not outside. I found some help in other Wiki pages, such as Help:Conditional_tables in Wikipedia and Help:Table#Conditional_table_row in MediaWiki.
- I was able to arrive to this code, closer to what they provide:
{| class="infobox {{#ifeq {{{raridade|}}} | Comum | comum }}{{#ifeq {{{raridade|}}} | Incomum | incomum }}{{#ifeq {{{raridade|}}} | Raro | raro }}{{#ifeq {{{raridade|}}} | Épico | epico }}{{#ifeq {{{raridade|}}} | Lendário | lendario }}" <tr class="topo"> <td style="text-alignleft; width 22%;">{{image}}</td> <td><h3>{{PAGENAME}}</h3><div class="categoria">{{categoria}}</div>{{#if{{{raridade|}}}|<div class="raridade">{{{raridade}}}</div>}}</td> </tr> {{#if{{{pontuacao|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{pontuacao}}} {{!}} Pontuação do <br />Equipamento }} {{#if{{{dano|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{dano}}} {{!}} Dano }} {{#if{{{chance|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{chance}}} {{!}} Chance de Acerto Crítico }} {{#if{{{multiplicador|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{multiplicador}}} {{!}} Multiplicador de Dano Crítico }} {{#if{{{bloquear|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{bloquear}}} {{!}} Bloquear Dano de Vigor}} {{#if{{{estabilidade|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{estabilidade}}} {{!}} Estabilidade de Bloqueio}} {{#if{{{armadurafisico|}}}|{{!}}- ! {{{armadurafisico}}} {{!}} Avaliação da Armadura - Físico{{!}}- ! {{{armaduraelemental}}} {{!}} Avaliação da Armadura - Elemental}} {{#if{{{danocortante|}}}|{{!}}- !

- I just don't have a clue on why I would add ifnotempty instead of #if.
- However, I still get the problem. Tables and #if conditionals just really don't work together in wiki! Mostly it seems to be because the | (pipe) character, which you should change to | so they are not part of the #if parserfunction.
- However, I tried so many times for the past 3 days and I didn't achieve a simple result of not getting a line break in the wrong place! This is so disappointing. The only thing I could see is the line breaks when I have multiple blank conditionals. It's the blank ones that are not working very well.
- If anyone knows how to overcome this, please help.
- Thanks a lot again. 2804:14D:90A8:8251:2531:3AD3:8BF8:1734 (talk) 20:46, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

- I couldn't make sense of that code even from the source but have you tried putting all the if statements on one line? e.g.
{{#if:....|...}}{{#if:...|...}}{{#if:...|...}}- If you're using tables it's probably easier to just use the table/tr/td html tags rather than wikitext.
- Also you could use a div instead of a table for the infobox. Jonathan3 (talk) 21:35, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
Warning someone that you're leaving the wiki
Is there any existing extension or tool that warns readers that they're leaving the wiki? It's common for some types of websites and usually displays a message like "You are now leaving OurSite.com for an external site. OurSite is not responsible for the content of other websites". Does that exist in MediaWiki? Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 20:37, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Personally i find those types of things annoying.
- We do have it for certain special cases - e.g. special:search/google:foo, where open redirects can happen (open redirect is a type of security vuln where you trick a person into thinking they are on a different website than they actually are. Its sometimes used in phishing attacks)
- So outside of open redirects, no i'm not aware of anything. Bawolff (talk) 16:17, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- You may be able to just intercept any external link click and show some alert dialog using JavaScript in MediaWiki:Common.js
$(document).on( 'click', 'a.external', function() { alert( 'You are leaving ' + mw.config.get('wgSiteName') ); } );- But that of course will only work for clients with JavaScript enabled. Osnard (talk) 12:43, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Osnard, that might be good enough. I imagine that a system that worked for most of the cases, most of the time would be handy for some purposes, especially a wiki that was on a sensitive topic. Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 20:41, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- I would imagine that most intranet instances of mediawiki would find benefit in this capability. I work for a large company that is looking for this capability on their corporate instance. 76.166.193.10 (talk) 13:26, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- I wonder whether folks associated with the Enterprise hub would have other ideas about how to address this problem. Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 05:25, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
Exclude redirects from search results

What's the current situation on this? I wasn't able to find a definitive answer. Thanks. Jonathan3 (talk) 21:37, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- I assume from the silence that it isn't possible :-)
- Any ideas on how to implement this? Is there a hook that could be used in an extension? Thanks. Jonathan3 (talk) 14:04, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

How to backup sqlite
I thought the only backup i need is for the <wiki>.sqlite file. But the following restore fails:
- A new wiki container (no database or LocalSettings.php file)
- Download the <wiki>.sqlite file
- Go through the new wiki wizard in browser. It detects there is an existing files and suggest to update it
- Copy the LocalSettings.php file to the wiki
When I open the wiki I get an error: Error 1: no such table: l10n_cache
I didn't backup the I10n_cache file, since it is not mentioned in Manual:SQLite/Back-up and also its name suggests it is something that can be recreated.
How do I fix this? 84.111.224.227 (talk) 13:55, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- you can use the sqlite command line tool to create a new db.
- sqlite3 wiki.l10n_cache.sqlite
- And then give it the following input
CREATE TABLE l10n_cache ( lc_lang BLOB NOT NULL, lc_key TEXT NOT NULL, lc_value BLOB NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (lc_lang, lc_key) ); PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL;- Which should recreate the l10n table. Bawolff (talk) 04:44, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
Dead Wiki
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Hey guys,
so I just stumbled upon a wiki called "logopaediewiki.de"
And I wanted to add stuff, so I tried to make a account, but it gives me a error message.
Something like "The E-Mail can not be send, there's a php error".
The thing is, the last time someone has edited something on the page was in 2017.
So I guess that the admin is not taking care of the site anymore and no one can add or edit anything because he can't/won't fix that issue.
Is there anyway to get that fixed to use that wiki? 2001:16B8:10E5:D200:5823:8FA0:DE4D:518C (talk) 16:03, 13 October 2021 (UTC)

MW migration problems
Hi,
we are using multiple MW instances ($wgVersion = '1.19.2';) on an old MS Server 2008 R2 with PHP 5.3.2
Now I´m trying to migrate this MWs wo a new server: Ubuntu - Apache2 - MySQL - PHP 7.4 - MW 1.36.2
First Problem is, I cannot simply copy the MW and the database to the new server, because of the newer PHP version.
What would be the correct way to migrate the old MWs to the new server with PHP 7.4 and MW 1.36.2?
Thy for the help! Horst0r (talk) 07:32, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- There was a similar question here recently. You download the new software on the new server, transfer across the database and your own files (including LocalSettings.php), then run update.php. There's a page about upgrading and a page about moving a wiki that should help.
- Check what version to move to first. I think it might have to be in steps - to 1.35 first maybe? It's mentioned on the upgrade page. Jonathan3 (talk) 10:14, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Jonathan3 thx for the hint, I will give it a try to update the old MW in multiple steps; hopefully this will work; Horst0r (talk) 13:47, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Good luck.
- The upgrading page says:
- If you are upgrading to MediaWiki 1.36 or later, only upgrades from the last two LTS releases will be supported (phab:T259771). This will mean that for very old versions, that you first upgrade to MediaWiki 1.35 and then upgrade to 1.36. Jonathan3 (talk) 13:59, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- hmm, for my understanding I will have to follow the following upgrade path, as mentioned under "How do I upgrade from a really old version?":
- 1.19.2 --> 1.5.8 --> 1.35.4 --> 1.36.2 Horst0r (talk) 10:07, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Version numbers aren't like decimal numbers. So 1.19 is newer than 1.5. So you wouldn't need to go via 1.5.8. Jonathan3 (talk) 16:17, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Jonathan3 sorry, my bad. Thanks for the hint!

Howdy,
we are migrating from MW 1.31.15 (PHP 7.2.24, MySQL 5.7.34) to 1.35.4 (PHP 7.4.24, same DB). When running update.php, I get:

- Looks like your logging table has some rows with log_user_text empty but different log_user.
- You can try to set them to an "external" user and see if that works. Example:
update logging set log_user_text = 'unknown>unknown' where log_user_text = ;Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 17:33, 15 October 2021 (UTC)- Thank you, I'll try that tomorrow. After the DB update, can I simply re-run the update.php script or will I have to clear or prepare the DB tables prior to that? 2003:C2:3F22:8200:9C76:A21A:B4C4:D86A (talk) 18:15, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- I found out all of the odd logging records were from the year 2007, long before I came along. After applying the update to the logging table, I re-run update.php script. The script is stable, it continues working where it stopped before.
- Problem solved, thanks a lot! 2003:C2:3F22:8200:3D5E:3CF4:4409:5FFA (talk) 08:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
Upgrading from 1.34
- I am fairly sure it should be possible to upgrade straight to 1.36 but is this right?
- The wording on the upgrading page isn't entirely clear, at least to me! Thanks. Jonathan3 (talk) 22:48, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- You can do that without doubt. And most welcome. ↠Tanbirzx (✉) 12:46, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure that's right. Bawolff (talk) 23:28, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. It looked like to get to 1.36 you had to be on a LTS version, but that wouldn't make sense on an ongoing basis. It must mean you need to be starting from no earlier than the relevant LTS version. Which in my case I think is 1.31. Jonathan3 (talk) 16:19, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
Why does Timeless, a core skin, contains about 300KB of resources in each webpage load?
MediaWiki 1.36.1 with Timeless skin in Hebrew.
When I test any MediaWiki webpage of my website in Google Pagespeed Insights (GPI) I get these two resource webpages:
- example.com/load.php?lang=he&modules=startup&only=scripts&raw=1&skin=timeless
- example.com/load.php?lang=he&modules=skins.timeless&only=styles&skin=timeless
Both webpages contain about 35201 characters (about 4MB in size each) which is a huge amount of JavaScript and CSS for "wiki pages" (mostly if not only containing text).
Maybe it does with the fact that my website is Hebrew (due to the lang=he query string).
I assume that my SEO could have been much better if I wouldn't have to load so much JavaScript and CSS in any webpage.
Please opine about what to do (or not to do) with this situation. 49.230.134.86 (talk) 03:51, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- You're not just counting timeless there, most of it is probably base mediawiki not timeless.
- 35201 characters = 35 kb (?)
- But the answer is probably related to the choice of embedding images used in ui inside css. Which has a lot of pros and cons for performance (probably less useful on sites using http/2).
- If you don't like it, i guess use a different skin. However i'm doubtful this affects SEO. Bawolff (talk) 05:44, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Bawolff
- Sorry, yes, 8KB not 8MB, I confused.
- My website is imageless in general (doesn't even have an image logo).
- From what I recall, none of my article webpages was ever loaded with any (skin-originated) image.
- The errors in PGI are:
- Remove unused JavaScript
- Eliminate render blocking resources
- I also found another JavaScript file with 278,970 characters (275KB):Why would such a large file get loaded alongside any webpage?... 49.230.134.86 (talk) 06:51, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

- > Why would such a large file get loaded alongside any webpage?
- Because MediaWiki is a complicated website, with lots of different functionalities that it has to facilitate.
- > I also found another JavaScript file with 278,970 characters (275KB):
- This query, fetches the jQuery framework, string utilities, title parsing, api clients, language information, translation information, the initial page setup and timeless specific javascript. All functionality needed.
- > I assume that my SEO could have been much better
- I very much doubt that. This is peanuts compared to something like the website of the New York Times. People are obsessed over SEO in the wrong places. SEO primarily is a function of content and interest. Only after that performance starts mattering. Have good content and SEO will follow. —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 09:56, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- @TheDJ
- A website being "complicated" doesn't justify loading so much content for webpages of a heading and text.
- Why not load only what's really needed per each page?
- (did you develop that?)
- SEO is much more than "the function of content and interest" and program performance (amount of load content, loading times, code quality, etc.) has a great role in it from my personal experience with various CMSs and from the experience of everyone I know that do it professionally. 49.230.134.86 (talk) 15:04, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- "Why not load only what's really needed per each page?" That is already the case. If you think it is not, then feel free to locally experiment with somehow loading less things. Malyacko (talk) 13:26, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- @ערן
- Is there any connection to Hebrew? If so, how would you in Hebrew wiki deal with that? 49.230.20.227 (talk) 07:37, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- You can replace the lang to en (either by changing the URLs about from lang=he to lang=en, or loading the original page with uselang=en parameter, or if you have admin access change the language in LocalSettings.php and compare to en. I doubt Hebrew have much to contribute here.
- You can also load the page with debug=1 parameter - this will ask MW to load the resources separately and can help to deduce what are the resources that consume more size. (note that in this mode there is no minification) Eran (talk) 07:45, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

Struggling with Pretty URLs | No Root Access
I want to rewrite my URLs from:
example.com/w/index.php/Main_Page
to
example.com/wiki/Main_Page
I've done this before, several years ago, with the same hosting provider and similar instructions. I am not exactly a newby, but I am not super-knowledgeable - I'm starting over, and I'd like to get this task done before I add many more articles.
Most of the steps I've followed simply lead me to 404 errors or worse.
However...
I have followed various manuals over recent days, and somehow have currently arrived at the following result:
example.com/w/Main_Page
Note that the /index.php section of the URL is now gone. Progress? Maybe. It makes me want to leave well enough alone while I determine why I'm getting /w out of my rewrite rules instead of /wiki, but I am more than willing to reset my .htaccess and LocalSettings.php files back to their original state if you think I should start from scratch. I'm open to ideas because it's really important to be to get this done.
My files:
.htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
LocalSettings.php
$wgScriptPath = "/w";
$wgArticlePath = "{$wgScriptPath}/$1";
$wgUsePathInfo = false;
$wgScriptExtension = ".php";
Please let me know if I haven't provided enough information. I'm really trying here.
Thanks in advance for reading. I look forward to more ideas. I just feel like I'm missing something obvious because I'm up in the middle of the night. Ikevinax (talk) 10:35, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Try:
- .htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d RewriteRule ^/?wiki/(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L] </IfModule>- LocalSettings.php
- Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 17:28, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
$wgScriptPath = "/w"; $wgArticlePath = "/wiki/$1"; $wgUsePathInfo = false; $wgScriptExtension = ".php";
- Thanks so much, but it didn't work. It looked similar to steps I've tried. I gave it a shot anyway. Strangely, it rewrites the URL exactly right, but the pages do not load. I get a 404 error. Ikevinax (talk) 00:30, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- I assume your wiki is installed at %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/. Is that correct? Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 09:36, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think $wgScriptPath is to do with the URL rather than the file path so how about trying
$wgScriptPath = "/wiki";? - On my .htaccess I have
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/index.php [L]so how about tryingRewriteRule ^/?wiki/(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/index.php [L]>(i.e. without the/w). - Maybe try without
$wgUsePathInfo = false;. I used to use this but had to change it when changing from someone's home computer to a shared host years ago. Now I just leave it to whatever the default is. - Maybe try without
$wgScriptExtension = ".php";. It was removed in MW 1.31. Jonathan3 (talk) 20:13, 17 October 2021 (UTC) - The article path should not be inside or the same as the script path. Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 21:55, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think it would be ok for script path to be /wiki and article path to be /wiki/$1
- Not 100% sure but worth trying? Jonathan3 (talk) 22:55, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-fRewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-dRewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/w/index.php [L]</IfModule>82.222.61.58 (talk) 07:05, 18 October 2021 (UTC)- We will get there in the end! Jonathan3 (talk) 08:38, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Wiki corrupt after upgrade
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
My wiki got somehow/somewhere corrupt during, as I expect, an upgrade.
I am not using it often so I didnt discovered it directly, I assume the update is done automatically done by Installatron from my provider. The wiki first was setup somewhere in 2015.
First I thought I lost my password, because I was able not able to logon. However the forgot my password links wore not working for the admin user. So I created a new user and discovered that the orginal admin user was gone, also the page content is completly gone.
Offcourse I don't have any backup from a working version :( The backup I have is also containing a corrupted wiki.
Is there a way to recover the content without a backup? Jerroen12 (talk) 18:51, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

Search suggestions diff. namespace in default search, MW 1.35?
Howdy,
I have recently upgraded our test wiki from 1.31 to 1.35.4 (PHP 7.4.24, MySQL 5.7.35). It is just a test environment, so the question is not urgent but I would appreciate if s.o. could give me a hint someday.
We are using the default search without any extensions (no CirrusSearch, ...), it has always been sufficient for us. The default behaviour is: When beginning to type, a small dropdown box opens, showing up to 10 matches. This feature has always been active for the main namespace (and continues working after the upgrade). Additionally, one could have typed <namespace>:<searchstring> and then the dropdown shows the matches within the given namespace. Which does not work any longer.
For comparison, check www.perrypedia.de vs. test.perrypedia.de and try searching "Hilfe:" or "Mediawiki:" - works fine in live wiki, doesn't find anything in test. Is this change intended or did I do something wrong? Kind regards, K. 2003:C2:3F22:8200:3D5E:3CF4:4409:5FFA (talk) 15:28, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- is your skin the correct version, and are there errors in the web browser's developer console?
- You could try using the opensearch api module manually Api:Opensearch and see if it gives any errors. Bawolff (talk) 09:07, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- Currently I am using Vector, which was part of the Mediawiki 1.35 bundle, but I have also tested other skins and the behaviour (missing search suggestions) is the same in any skin.
- No errors in the developer console.
- No errors in the Apache error log. (lots of PHP warnings that don't matter: deprecated hooks)
- No errors when using the opensearch api. It works but I notice the opensearch api slightly differs from the search suggestions in the way it searches namespaces ...:
- The documentation states I could supply the namespace within the URL, like "api.php?action=opensearch & search=N & namespace=12" *) This parameter seems to be ignored, the search result shows articles of the main namespace.
- On the other hand I can supply the namespace as part of the search string "api.php?action=opensearch & search=Hilfe%3aN" *) The search results are then limited to the "Hilfe" namespace but shows all articles containing an "n", i.e. a fulltext search - in contrast to the search suggestions dropdown, where I expect to see all articles beginning with "n".
- *)the editor rejects the full url (spam filter) 2003:C2:3F22:8200:D974:5731:741:FB6B (talk) 10:42, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
- Found and fixed! The trouble resulted from Extension:TitleKey. Removed the extension, now the namespace search works as before.

- I compromised and used Georgia in the end. It has serifs, which I want, but is about the same size as Arial so I won't need to adjust any CSS. Jonathan3 (talk) 10:22, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/font-size
- If you added something like that and it didnt take affect it could be something else in the skin overriding it. Browser dev tools can be helpful in that situation. Bawolff (talk) 06:03, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'd tried that but wasn't able easily to increase the font consistently across the website. I probably could have done with stacks of lines of CSS but it didn't seem worth it.
- The odd things was that when I just changed the font everything worked out at 16px (as before with Arial), but when I compared it with a plain 1990s website with Times New Roman also at 16px the text on the wiki was somehow smaller. To make it a bit bigger I was having to use font-size em/rem values to increase the px, but it was hard to change it consistently across the different elements of the website.

- This may belong elsewhere, however.
- I'm tying to create a Sidebar and want to change the size of the font in the sidebar. How do you specify the size of the font for the words you're typing.
- eg:
- '| Flag = Cago
- [ [ File:Test_Image.png|50px ] ]
- Golden Griffon of Law in White Circle<break
- holding two lightning bolts on<break
- a red background
- So the words Golden Griffon... I'd like them in font size say 8 so they are small. How do I do that?
- Thanks,
- Karl Karlpajak (talk) 23:16, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

- <span style="font-size: 8px">Golden Griffon</span> Bawolff (talk) 01:14, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- On a related matter, for some time now (maybe years, I don't know) all WMF wikis have a "glasses" icon at the top right, left of the alerts icon. This opens a popup menu with some nice options, mostly (for me at least) the color related ones. How is this enabled? I can't find any obvious extension in Special:Version that implements this.
- Answering to myself here: it's a feature in MW 1.43+. Tactica (talk) 23:50, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
how to add "in other languages" section in the sidebar?
Hi team, I just a new user for mediawiki. And I just start up mediawiki system in a linux server. And it can be access, but seems can't find "in other languages" section in the sidebar on the left side of the page. Please let me know if there is something I missed, thanks! 2409:8928:430:53EC:98F:4D5F:1790:A842 (talk) 07:19, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- On Wikimedia wikis, this is provided by the Wikidata extension and relies on Wikidata. Please elaborate on your use cases and underlying problems you want to solve. Malyacko (talk) 08:11, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Malyacko, could you provide the extension page link? thanks! I can't find the extension you mentioned. ChenjingJiang (talk) 08:29, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- Extension:Wikibase
- There is also an older system built into core that requires less setup - interwiki links that have the language code as the link name help:interwiki Bawolff (talk) 08:54, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Bawolf, I've installed Wikibase extension, and also can find the "in other languages" section. However, it seems need to install other extensions to support multi languages wiki site? could you please provide the extension link for that can enable multi languages wiki site? many thanks! 2409:8928:4B6:480A:C946:DF91:871A:6071 (talk) 01:57, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Wikibase is complicated (although no other exts are required afaik. You do have to setup 2 wikis for it).
- If just starting out i would reccomend just starting with interlanguage interwiki links. Bawolff (talk) 06:01, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Bawolff, I just practiced interwiki links, and now we want to setup 2 wikis for wikibase, but I just have no idea about how to setup 2 wikis and how to combine them together? please help to show me the way. Thanks! ChenjingJiang (talk) 10:01, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

MW migration - update.php problem with DB
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Hi,
I´m migrating a v1.15.3 MW to another Server with v1.35
I copied the database an the update.php gives the following error:
...batch conversion of user_options: Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError from line 1699 of /var/www/wiki/includes/libs/rdbms/database/Database.php: Error 1146: Table 'wiki.mw_revision_comment_temp' doesn't exist (127.0.0.1)
Function: MediaWiki\Revision\RevisionStore::fetchRevisionRowFromConds
Any hints for me?
The Table 'wiki.mw_revision_comment_temp' indeed does not exist in the DB.
I only have 'wiki.mw_revision' Horst0r (talk) 10:50, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- I did some research and generated the db tables manually; four tables were missing:
- mw_revision_comment_temp
- mw_comment
- mw_revision_actor_temp
- mw_actor
- now I get another error from the update.php:
- Beginning migration of revision.rev_user and revision.rev_user_text to revision_actor_temp.revactor_actor
- Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError from line 1699 of /var/www/wiki/includes/libs/rdbms/database/Database.php: Error 1242: Subquery returns more than 1 row (127.0.0.1)
- Function: MigrateActors::migrateToTemp Horst0r (talk) 14:11, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- I´m still messing around with the problem :/
- does anybody have a hint for me to fix this? Horst0r (talk) 11:21, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe start from scratch but move to a different version, eg 1.31? I know what you're doing is supposed to work but... Jonathan3 (talk) 11:34, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- thx for the hint, I think this did the trick; at the moment I was able to migrate the MW to 1.31, without the problems I had with the 1.35 version;
- now I will try to migrate the MW from 1.31 to 1.35; hopefully this also works without any problems! Horst0r (talk) 10:49, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

- mark
- Mark the blob as "known bad", to avoid errors when attempting to read it. The value given is the reason for marking the blob as bad, typically a ticket ID. Requires --revisions to also be set. Jonathan3 (talk) 15:37, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Simple dark mode auto change
Good morning. I would like to configure my wiki via LocalSettings.php to automatically switch to the DarkVector skin if the user's desktop browser prefers dark themes. I'd also like to not interfere with Mobilefrontend. I'm assuming it is something like [[Simple mobile skin auto change]] . Any ideas? Buster2223 (talk) 15:55, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- Normally this is controlled by media queries, so it has to be supported by skin css, you cant just auto-switch the skin. Bawolff (talk) 05:59, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Weird. I was able to do auto-switching from Vector to MinervaNeue if mobile was detected. How do sites detect if dark mode is preferred? Buster2223 (talk) 18:18, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
Version history with no user names
Hi everyone!
I want to show the rider "version history" only to users who are admins and with hidden user names. So no one, except sysops, could see who made an edit.
function efAddSkinStylesAnon( OutputPage &$out, Skin &$skin ) {
global $wgUser;
if( !$wgUser->isLoggedIn() )
{
// Hide history tab
if ( $skin->getSkinName() == 'vector' ) {
$out->addInlineStyle( '#ca-history { display:none; }' );
}
}
return true;
}
$wgHooks['BeforePageDisplay'][] = 'efAddSkinStylesAnon';
The "hide feature" works, but I don't know how to hide the user names for everyone except the sysops.
Thank you very much for support! Weejan91 (talk) 16:15, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- You can put admin only css on MediaWiki:Group-sysop.css on your wiki. Bawolff (talk) 05:57, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
Filters Not Applying to RSS Feed
I've recently started using an RSS bot in our wiki's Discord server to log recent changes to a channel, but ran into an issue where some filters specified in Recent Changes don't affect the feed. Despite hidenewpages=1 and hidelog=1 functioning as intended on the Recent Changes page, they don't remove new pages and move/deletion/block logs from the raw feed. I am aware of extensions that add more dedicated activity feeds to a server, but I do not have control over what extensions get installed so they aren't an option.
Currently I've had to specify filters on the bot's side, but since it's filtering by what's in the <description> tags, as that's the best I can do, an edit summary containing the filtered phrases will prevent that change from being posted by the bot, which is obviously not desirable.
For the record, the namespace filter does affect the feed, so surely other filters not doing so is unintentional behaviour, right? This can be observed on any wiki's Recent Changes page, including this one. PlasmoidThunder (talk) 19:32, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- I guess they drifted :( https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=help&modules=feedrecentchanges is what is supported Bawolff (talk) 05:55, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- That's really unfortunate. Hopefully they update this. PlasmoidThunder (talk) 22:44, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
Help with finding all wikipedia links
I need help with my wiki.. I recently import some templates from wikipedia.. And some of the imported page has link from wikipedia. example below Wikipedia:How to post, Is there a way i can access all of them so i can update it to mine. Thatnewman (talk) 00:37, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- There's an "allpages" special page you could use, if I understand the question correctly. Jonathan3 (talk) 11:32, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- I Have a lot of mirror link to Wikipedia. is there a way to find all the mirror link linked to other wiki Thatnewman (talk) 21:07, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Do you mean that in the imported templates there are links to Wikipedia, and you'd like to replace them with links to your own website?
- What about searching for the links using the search box? What about Special:RecentChanges or Special:Newpages? What about Extension:ReplaceText to search for the text (and probably also replace)? Jonathan3 (talk) 21:21, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- If they are full urls, special:linksearch
- If they are interwiki links,you can probably get a list from the api API:Iwbacklinks (with no iwbltitle param) Bawolff (talk) 05:53, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
Moving from shared Hosting to VPS
I have been facing issue and some limitation using Shared hosting and i am about to upgrade my plan to VPS .. Which Web Panels do you think i should go for...
interworx OR cpanel Thatnewman (talk) 00:54, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- I've only used cpanel, and found it fine (although that was probably five years ago). But surely one of the points of a VPS is that you get full shell access to do whatever you want, and so the web control panel is less important? Sam Wilson 04:03, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- I second that. I suppose I was spoiled as on my shared host I had shell access. But just get a basic unmanaged VPS. You won't look back. I don't even know whether mine has a control panel. I assume not :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 11:30, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Alright i should go for unmanaged VPS. I will be the one to set up the security of my hosting right??? Cause I know i cant Thatnewman (talk) 18:30, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Digital Ocean have step-by-step guides to setting up a server, including security. I'm sure so do Linode and the others.
- But if you know you can't then you shouldn't try :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 21:24, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
Limiting a user account to edit only up to a certain number of characters in each edit
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I want to limit a certain user account only to fix typos and add symbols such as (CONTENT), [URL LINK_TEXT] [[INTERNAL_LINK]], {{TEMPLATE_CALL}} and so forth.
I assume that in my particular website, limiting the that user account up until 500 characters per edit would be enough.
Is there any way to do so without installing any extension and without any JavaScript limitations? 182.232.6.32 (talk) 05:12, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

- Because here I focus only on characters. 182.232.6.32 (talk) 11:53, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think the answer is still No, unfortunately. Jonathan3 (talk) 19:57, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
- Just install abusefilter, that's the entire point of the extension.
- Maybe manual:$wgSpamRegex could do it, but it would be not as easy to setup as abusefilter. Bawolff (talk) 05:48, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- I take it all back. The answer is Yes! :-) Or at least it seems to be.

- my problem is "Spezial:Neue_Dateien" ~ Special:newfiles

User script: Determine the current view
Hi. In the context of a user script, I'm wondering how I can determine if the current view is in edit (VisualEditor or source) mode. The mw.config.values.wgAction seems only partly useful when I load the editor using the User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/VisualEditorEverywhere.js (EN wiki) which loads veaction=edit and not action=edit.

- Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:New_user_landing_page&page=Edward+Lorusso and follow the instructions.
- I've never seen this before and it looks very off-putting. Probably that's deliberate :-) The conclusion is:
- "When you create your draft, it will not be seen by external search engines. However, when you finish, you'll be able to submit it to be reviewed by our volunteers. Reviews can take a long time, so please be patient and rest assured that your draft will be reviewed in due course. This may take 7 weeks or more, since drafts are reviewed in no specific order."

Longer description:
I came from 1.31.x and upgraded to 1.35.4.
After the upgrade, I had some issues with three broken revisions, which I could find and fix using "findBadBlobs.php"
Currently, findBadBlobs.php is reporting:

"Interner Fehler" is "Internal error" in english. Don't know if this is maybe related to my search issues.
I did rebuild the search index:
# php maintenance/rebuildtextindex.php
Clearing searchindex table...Done
Rebuilding index fields for 1334 pages...
500
1000
Rebuild the index...
Done.
I then checked the searchindex table:
mysql> select * from searchindex;
Empty set (0.00 sec)
mysql>
This strikes me as odd.
| MediaWiki | 1.35.4 |
| PHP | 7.4.3 (fpm-fcgi) |
| MySQL | 8.0.26-0ubuntu0.20.04.3 |
| ICU | 66.1 |
- I found an old DB backup, and alas -- searchindex was filled with as many entries as the wiki had pages. It contained words. All looked well.
- Then, out of sheer curiosity, I ran rebuildtextindex.php -- and stared into the void. All entries in that table were gone. Ralf.hildeb (talk) 14:06, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Based on that backup I performed a stepwise update from 1.31 -> 1.35 and found: rebuildtextindex.php would work just fine up to mediawiki-1.33.4.
- When updating from there to mediawiki-1.34.4, rebuildtextindex.php would create an empty table "searchindex". Ralf.hildeb (talk) 14:19, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Already broken for me in 1.34.0-rc.0 Ralf.hildeb (talk) 14:44, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- It turns out that I had:
$wgDBtype = "mysqli";- in LocalSettings.php, once I removed the "i", the index was being populated again.
- For reference: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T102285:
- I also found that
$wgDBtype = 'mysqli'seems to work for almost everything except a few obscure things Ralf.hildeb (talk) 20:06, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Exception on LDAP login
Hello!
I'm relatively new to MediaWiki. Just installed a blank copy to access its work as a "private" Wiki for internal use. LDAP login is a requirement.
When a valid user logs on via LDAP, MediaWiki throws an exception. The LDAP authentication itself succeeds (on wrong password MediaWiki just displays a normal "password incorrect" message on the login screen) - we also checked that the LDAP part works properly with a traffic dump.
The exception is thrown both when the user does not exists and when the user was manually created in the MediaWiki beforehand. When such a local user is assigned a local password, it can login with it if we turn LDAP authentication off; but with LDAP authentication on we always get the exception.
It seems that the user's name is somehow empty. We made sure the LDAP returns the user's "cn" attribute and that the JSON has this attribute specified in the user's name mapping. When we created the local test user, we also made sure the "real name" field was filled-in (even though it was labelled as "optional").
The exception is throws no matter if private browser window is used or not. We made sure to refresh the login page every time to obtain a new session.
The system:
- MediaWiki 1.36.2 fresh download, clean install with latest stable (I think mostly 1.35) versions for PluggableAuth, LDAPProvider and LDAPAuthentication2).
- Database is MariaDB 10.6, master/slave cluster behind MaxScale 6 load balancer (not that this should really matter to the issue)
- PHP-7.4 on RHEL-8, up-to-date
- LDAP: MS Active Directory
- URL: currently private
The exception:
MediaWiki internal error.
Original exception: [YXAISRs6LzUkYQtTsg123AAAAJI] /index.php?title=Special:PluggableAuthLogin TypeError: Return value of User::getName() must be of the type string, null returned

How to hide custom namespace from HTML title tag?
I have 2 wikis installed.
One is running on 1.31.0 and it doesn't show my custom namespace in the HTML title tag.
The other wiki (new one) is running on 1.35.3 and it's showing the custom namespace in the HTML title tag.
Is it possible to remove the namespace from the HTML title tag?
Note that I am not talking about the firstHeading. Mukilol2 (talk) 14:38, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- If you don't find a direct answer, you could look at Extension:WikiSEO. Jonathan3 (talk) 14:59, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Are the pages actually in the custom namespace in the second one? (Like if you click the page information linke from the sidebar in the toolbox, what namespace does it show?)
- the page Mediawiki:pagetitle on your wiki may allow some customization. Bawolff (talk) 05:40, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- You could replace $1 with {{PAGENAME}} in MediaWiki:Pagetitle to get rid of all namespaces. Jonathan3 (talk) 08:42, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

How to change login method?
Hi. I need to change the login method so that instead of requiring username and password, login is by a user's token, without using the Mediawiki API. Is there a way to do this? BarbaRuivaRK (talk) 19:17, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Our user tokens arent equivalent to username/password but have a different function.
- If you're making a custom token scheme, see AuthManager (programming knowledge required) which applies to both web and api interface. Bawolff (talk) 05:36, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

Update android app from fdroid
Link to this page found in the fdroid repository for downloading the wp+app for android smartphones. Page seems not to exist, but may be someone will be notified. Page should contain FAQ as described. Reason for consulting this page is the upgrade to app version 2021-10-14 from the former version 2021-10-06 (not sure..). Unfortunately the updated app did not restore open reader tabs (more than 50) as it did in former updates, no error message, no warning, nothing in any description found, how to process or how to handle the update. I'm not very happy about this unexpected behavior. Bug report could not be filed without account, useless for me. Android is v7, if any more info is necessary, pls. let me know. Thanks for any idea or help, --80.187.100.178 22:10, 20 October 2021 (UTC) P.s: referred faq page is locked, message points in here 80.187.100.178 (talk) 22:10, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

"De-Wikipediaify" templates etc
Hi.
I've successful exported & imported a series of templates such as, reflist, citation, dubious, etc to an installation of Mediawiki, which now all work ... but I'm stuck with 100s of links back to the Wikipedia (sometime messes like wikipedia.wikipedia) or, more rarely, Mediawiki.org, including those inline with actual content, e.g. the dubious in [dubious – discuss] will link to the Wikipedia.
I've looked at pages, I've looked in mysql, but I can't find where these links are all being created. In mysql they appear in blobs.
Where is it happening and is there an easy way to just change them all, e.g. using mysql.
Thanks in advance. --~ 82.132.224.36 (talk) 09:28, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

How to force line breaks? Plugin, Extension?
Hi everyone,
My wiki is located at https://www.gamecollecting.io/wiki/Main_Page and I wanted to see if there was a way I could force the wiki to acknowledge line breaks like how it shows in the editor. Another wiki I commonly edit on here can do it! Here: https://tcrf.net/Rogue_Galaxy
However I just cannot figure it out. Do I need an extension? Do I need to add my own code to the wiki? Shaztopia (talk) 00:30, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Wiki account and login issues
The process of maintaining let alone creating a wiki account is insane! It does not work.
Despite having a valid account 'TheIBM' and valid email I was not able to reset my password.
I then set up another account 'Backchat-isp' and received and validated the account... That would not let me log in either.
I finally created a third account that works.
I certainly did not make any mistakes with my names, case, email or passwords. As for setting a limit of 1 email per 24 hours is just stupid. Taieri (talk) 01:06, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Ahnentafel Numbering
Steve Bennett
I like to use ahnentafel numbers to identify my ancestors rather than the reference numbers in RootsMagic. I find ahnentafel number easy to use in identifying ancestors, while reference numbers mean nothing or at least I have found no use for them. Is there a way to create a field for ahnentafel numbers that could be displayed instead of the reference number in the same location next to the name. I also note that in the ahnentafel report printouts there seems to be no accomodation for pedigree collapse so that individuals that appear in more than on place in the report are assigned additional number depending where they appear in the report. I find having more than one number to be confusing for purposes of identification and inconsistent with other genealogical standards. Is the a fix or resolution for this? I do not mind entering ahnentafel numbers manually instead of an automatic numbering algorithm. 134.228.161.153 (talk) 23:49, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

Help With Favicon
Hello I have Some questions about favicon..
First - Is there a way I can upload any picture size and resize it in my localsettings cause when ever I resize it to either 16 X 16 or 32 X 32 it is blurry.
Second - My favicon doesn't show on google.
Third - My Favicon Doesn't show on address bar.
How can I fix all these errors. Thatnewman (talk) 08:42, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- First: No, see Manual:$wgFavicon. Second: That's up to Google. Third: That's up to your web browser. Malyacko (talk) 09:54, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- Does it not show up on any browser? It should just work. You might need to hard refresh the page (just guessing). Are you able to view just the icon by typing its URL into your browser? Jonathan3 (talk) 08:14, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Remove Dash - from name
How do i remove the dash Before my name... On google it is like this
- Website
instead of
Website
even on browser top.....
How do i remove the dash Thatnewman (talk) 13:14, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe edit Mediawiki:Pagetitle. Jonathan3 (talk) 13:25, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- Apart from that: If something only happened on Google, then you need to talk to Google. Malyacko (talk) 14:22, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Thatnewman: : this dash is normally used to separate the page title and the wiki title. Do you want to get rid of the wiki title completely, or just not have a dash between them? As Jonathan3 says, you can edit Mediawiki:Pagetitle, or if you want extra control over the title on a page-by-page basis, the WikiSEO extension can be pretty good.

Broken custom toggle JavaScript
Hello. I'm an interface admin on Encyclopædia Dramatica (where I go by "MarioMario456"). The wiki has this JavaScript that extends the MediaWiki custom toggle by allowing a toggle button with expand/collapse text anywhere (this is used on series templates). However, sometimes it doesn't work:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".collapsibletoggletext").click(function() {
$(this).parent().children(".collapsibletoggletext").removeClass("hiddentext");
$(this).addClass("hiddentext");
});
});
For those JavaScript-illiterate, it's: When the page has loaded, when an object with the class "collapsibletoggletext" is clicked, all other objects with the class "collapsibletoggletext" in the parent have the class "hiddentext" (which has the CSS "display:none", meaning it's hidden) removed, while the "collapsibletoggletext" that was clicked has the "hiddentext" class added.
Here's an example:
[<span class="mw-customtoggle-example collapsibletoggle showhidetext"><span class="collapsibletoggletext hiddentext">Collapse</span><span class="collapsibletoggletext">Expand</span></span>] <div id="mw-customcollapsible-example" class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">Hello World!</div>
AtomicMario (talk) 14:46, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- I guess this is a question rather than an announcement... I'm semi-literate in JavaScript, so give some more details and I'll have a look :-) Have you noticed any patterns in relation to when it works and when it doesn't? Jonathan3 (talk) 08:10, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- When it works, the text changes when you click it. When it doesn't, the text stays the same. For a page that has this, keep clicking "Random page" until you find a page with an collapsible gallery. The toggle text should change when you click it, but sometimes it doesn't. AtomicMario (talk) 12:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Meet me half way and share a link of a page that doesn't work! Jonathan3 (talk) 12:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Jonathan3 Don't know what triggers the bug, it happens entirely by chance. Just click "Random page", until you find a page in which the toggle text doesn't change. AtomicMario (talk) 13:05, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Not sure I want to risk that :-) When the javascript above breaks, does all javascript on the page stop working too (dropdowns or whatever)? I had that once and can't for the life of me remember what fixed it. That's not much help but I'll have a think. It might have been something seemingly unrelated - maybe an old extension, or DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials/an adblocker? Jonathan3 (talk) 22:41, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- I don't see any problem with the jQuery code. I'm guessing your custom javascript doesn't always load. 65.92.83.38 (talk) 23:41, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- when the bug occurs, check, using your browser, that a click event is attached to the elements (as desired). If not, then your javascript isn't always loading. 65.92.83.38 (talk) 23:42, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- Other parts of the local javascript work, just not the custom toggle collapse code. AtomicMario (talk) 18:28, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Finally figured it out. The wiki has a file called "st/ed_global.js", which has a collapse script that is conflicting with the one on MediaWiki:Common.js. It is very broken, so I told the server admin to delete it. Plus, most of it is already on MediaWiki:Common.js. AtomicMario (talk) 23:36, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
find every <file> or </file> and replace
hi!
a old function did not work. so i create a new template.
is there a simple way to change in <file> => {{File| and </file> => }} in the hole database?
regards Jan JanTappenbeck (talk) 14:51, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- I think Extension:Replace Text could do that.
- I've not tested this, but if you use the regex setting you could find
<file>(.*)<\/file>
- and replace it with
- Jonathan3 (talk) 19:46, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
{{file|$1}} - hi !
- i oben and the result will show
- <file>(.*)<\/file>“ wird durch „{{file|$1}}“ in 250 Seiten ersetzt.
- <file>(.*)<\/file>“ will replace „{{file|$1}}“ in 250 side.
- But when i update a side with the old text there is no change!!!!
- on special page "last changes" nothing will be listet - but the flag is set!
- regards Jan JanTappenbeck (talk) 06:41, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- I don't understand all that but ReplaceText uses the job queue so it won't do all the replacements immediately. Run runJobs.php if you need it straight away. Also the extension only does 250 pages at a time so you might need to do the find/replace again (probably preferably after the first lot has finished). It's all on the extension's manual page :-) Jonathan3 (talk) 08:01, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

'A daily summary of notification' not working
Hi all,
Checked 'emails ' all events to receive notification, & select 'Daily summary of notifications' or 'Weekly summary of notification',
& never receive emails. However If 'individual notification when they come in' selected, I can receive the notification instantly.
So no doubt the local SMTP server functions, but is there any configuration to control firing the notification in specified time or any system dependencies are required, Do anyone could help me?
Thanks.

Show page counter in the search box
Hi, how can I make it so that I can see the page counter in the search box with the Timeless skin.
In total I have 224 pages but I only see Search on "name of my website") and I would like to see Search on "number of pages" as I have seen in examples of other websites. Version 1.36
Example: Skin talk:Timeless/Archive 1#/media/File:Skin-timeless.png
PD: Before I had version 1.31, but I had to move the web to another server and now I don't see the page counter, before I did, but I don't know how I got it.
Thanks, best regards. 81.37.71.167 (talk) 09:08, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Creating a list of links to all articles of a certain namespace
In MediaWiki 1.36.1 I want to create an article which contains a list to all articles of a certain namespace.
There are "many" articles of the relevant namespace so instead linking them "manually" I seek some automatic solution to present them all in a list (say a <ul> list) in one go. 49.230.208.183 (talk) 07:01, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- There's Special:Allpages which you might be able to transclude.
- But what I'd do is use the DynamicPageList3 extension. It could easily do what you need.
- If you use Cargo anyway I think it could do it too. Jonathan3 (talk) 11:48, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- In my website, I understand that Special:AllPages only includes built-in namespaces; it doesn't contain user-generated namespaces --- I don't find namespaces I myself have created, under the
Namespace:list there. - Maybe it does with the fact that my website is in Hebrew?... 49.230.208.199 (talk) 18:48, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- Are you sure that the namespace is created properly (defined in LocalSettings.php). If you go to the pages in question, and go to the left hand (right in hebrew) side and click page information link, does it list the page being in the namespace you expect?
- Keep in mind, that a page having a colon in the title does not neccesarily mean its in that namespace unless that namespace has been configured. Bawolff (talk) 01:09, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- I didn't even know that namespaces should be created in LocalSettings.php
- Nothing appears in page information about namespace in one of the relevant webpages.
- I thought that it is only needed to precede a webpages' name with
example:. - Okay, thanks, 49.230.193.73 (talk) 02:30, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Manual:Using custom namespaces has some background info about the neccesary config options that might help. Bawolff (talk) 07:29, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Who knows. It should have all namespaces. How did you define your custom namespaces? Try to define one using English to see whether that works. Jonathan3 (talk) 22:02, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- Please read what I wrote to Bawolff on top; basically I just precede a webpages' name with

Wrapping text round an iframe
I'd like to have an iframe (the mediawiki extension) on the right of a page, and my content on the left, much like an infobox. My content is generated automatically from external files, so I have very strong control of the layout, but am conscious that I want it to work on mobile as well as desktop. I've tried mediawiki tables and SimpleTables, but newlines seem to be a problem. HTML raw tables work better, though the text won't widen at the end of the iframe, but I worry that goes against mediawiki principles.
What approach would people suggest? Vicarage (talk) 08:36, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- I would suggest doing something like: style="width:50%:float:right" on the iframe. Css floating elements seem much more suited to your needs than tables. Bawolff (talk) 01:04, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Cant login via Iframe view "There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Go back to the previous page, reload that page and then try again"
Hello!
I have a WIkipage that i wanted to embedd (Iframe) into another program. And the page loads up in the iframe and I can go to the login screen, but as soon as i try to log in I get "There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Go back to the previous page, reload that page and then try again". You can only access the actual wikipages by logging in so i need to resolve this in some sort of way, Does anyone know what i can try?
The only settings that I have changed in order to get the iframe to load the page at all is:
$wgEditPageFrameOptions = 'false';
$wgCookieSecure = false; 193.234.117.222 (talk) 09:15, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- I'd guess it was the samesite attribute on the cookies.
- Note there are security implications (clickjacing) to using an iframe while logged in. Be sure to be aware of the risks. Bawolff (talk) 01:02, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hello!

Text mapping of extensions button not working
Hi,
I have a problem with the display of certain buttons. The login button of the PluggableAuth extension and the buttons in the VisualEditor extension are displayed with a funny label.
For example:
The login button has the text {pluggableauth-loginbutton-label}
Or
In VisualEditor, the buttons have labels like {visualeditor-meta-tool}, {visualeditor-toolbar-insert} and so on.
Apart from this, the extensions work perfectly.
I have already looked at the debugging output, but found nothing useful there.
I use Mediawiki version 1. 31. 15 and PHP 7. 4 (if it is important) on a Ubuntu 20. 04 server.
I hope someone can help me with this. 31.209.95.10 (talk) 12:51, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- Do you have any custom localization cache settings?

- First, never do a leap upgrade like that (jumpingn from 1.31 to 1.36). Second, you could be having permission errors. 65.92.83.38 (talk) 00:01, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- There is nothing wrong with upgrading from 1.31 to 1.36 directly. Those versions are close together.
- Your first error message is caused by using an old version of abusefilter with 1.36. You should use the version made to work with 1.36. The same applies to all your extensions - you should ensure their version match your version of mediawiki core.
- Your second exception is caused by deleting AbuseFilter but still having it listed as an enabled extension in LocalSettings.php Bawolff (talk) 00:58, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- It's generally not a good idea to upgrade like that (general principle). I wouldn't' do it especially if you have your own extensions that rely on classes that have been modified. You're just asking for trouble. 65.92.83.38 (talk) 01:34, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- If you have your own extensions then you need to upgrade them to work with whichever is the new version. I'm not sure it's a reason to upgrade through every intervening version in a situation where you've already missed several upgrades. Jonathan3 (talk) 16:36, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Large Gallery thumbnails not always shown
The problem: when having a gallery with a significant amount of images - they're not loaded.
Which wiki this happening on? wiki.openstreetmap.org
specific link: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_the_Philippines/sign_lookup_table
What I've done so far: Tried to communicate with the support of wiki.openstreetmap.org (they seem to not know either)
More detailed: between 00:00 and 04:00 western pacific time I can load that page without problems. All images are shown. Around 06:00 it starts to get worse with some images not being shown anymore this gets worse through the day..
I verified large sites with galleries hundreds of images on www.wikipedia.org they have no problems with hundreds of images in a gallery.
How does a proper image being shown:
<li class="gallerybox" style="width: 85px"><div style="width: 85px">
<div class="thumb" style="width: 80px;"><div style="margin:0px auto;"><a href="/wiki/File:Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg" class="image"><img alt="" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9b/Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg/80px-Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg.png" decoding="async" width="80" height="44" srcset="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9b/Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg/120px-Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg.png 1.5x, https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9b/Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg/160px-Philippines_road_sign_G8-3.svg.png 2x" /></a></div></div>
<div class="gallerytext">
<p><b>G8-3</b>
And what does it look like for the failed images:
</div>
</div></li>
<li class="gallerybox" style="width: 85px"><div style="width: 85px">
<div class="thumb" style="height: 80px;"></div>
<div class="gallerytext">
<p><b>G8-2</b>
Any idea why this behavior is happening? 2001:4452:301:C600:5C63:1D8:FD3E:F9B (talk) 13:08, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- Cannot reproduce. Images load when going to that link. If there are certain issues at certain times, you will have to contact the folks who run that wiki (we don't run it). Malyacko (talk) 20:37, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- I don't know the answer but could reproduce the problem... I checked at about 2300 GMT and there were quite a few images missing. Mostly ones nearer the bottom of the page. Purging that page with ?action=purge took absolutely ages but after doing it twice the images appeared. Jonathan3 (talk) 22:23, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- I can't even get that page to load.
- InstantCommons is really slow. Maybe its hitting some sort of timeout.
- I would suggest enabling mediawiki debug logging. Bawolff (talk) 00:54, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Your web server might have a limit on the download size. 65.92.83.38 (talk) 00:55, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- That's unlikely as they are missing html in the middle of the page. A download limit would cut off the entire thing, or at some point, not just garble random parts in the middle. Bawolff (talk) 01:16, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- The people running the web server probably limit the download size (or there is a timeout) depending on the time of day. 65.92.83.38 (talk) 01:07, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- If some servers (maybe job queue) are behind a firewall and some aren't, what could be happening is only some servers can fetch metadata from commons. Only some images would be broken because some would be cached from previous renders, but more would become broken over time. Although if that was the case, i would expect the broken images to be random and not towards the end. Bawolff (talk) 01:24, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- It is assumed this only happens to 'some' servers.
- That's an incorrect assumption without evidence to that assumption.
- Below I'm adding the evidence this isn't just an issue on smaller servers
- w:Comparison_of_European_road_signs#Speed_limit
- Scroll down and you get the same error - so it also happens on the "big" en.wikipedia.org Mrgenie (talk) 23:57, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- The cause is probably different. Enwikipedia has pretty aggressive rate limits, but those types of rate limits wouldn't affect the html generated (in wikipedia) which is very different then the issue described above. Bawolff (talk) 04:04, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Mrgenie That specific page has an insane amount of images... you are bound to hit ratelimits I think with that many images (even without the overhead that OSM has by using InstantCommons). There is a reason a category only shows you a max of 50 images normally. My browser can't even keep all of them in memory, if I scroll I can see them being dropped/reloaded into the renderer. Oh, now the tab crashed.
- I pity the mobile user who accidentally clicks this page ;) As a developer, it's making me wonder if we should put a limit on the amount of images you are allowed to add to pages.
- If you push the limits you might crash, this page is pushing the limits. —TheDJ (Not WMF) (talk • contribs) 11:55, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- It's interesting your browser can't keep them in memory.
- The Philippines Road Sign lookup table
- This is the page the original talk started about. It's about 300 images, each 10 to 50kb.. but let's stick to 100kB per image, although not a single image is 100kB
- So the total is 30MB, if we assume 100kB per image. I believe my old i386 back in the stone age already could do up to 4GB RAM LOL
- But okay, if you say your 21st century equipment can't put 30MB in the memory - I guess some people still running Commodore C64/128 or so.
- And that's okay, I get it, every single person I tried to convince there shouldn't be a problem like this - insists that it's normal that things not work - and the failure to load a few MB over the internet is normal, that's the way it should work. So I gave up trying to convince MediaWiki devs that this is not how it's supposed to be.
- No one will fix this and it's normal that a gallery of a few hundred images doesn't work and there's nothing wrong with mediawiki. No bugs or anything, it's supposed not to work! LOL
- Funny thing though - when I click "edit" all images are loaded instantly without any hiccups..
- but when the user uses the "read" - as in a person not editing the wiki page - then it doesn't work. But yeah I get it, it's supposed not to work for those people using wiki pages. Only those that edit wiki pages it's suppose to work.
- Anyway - feel free to close this issue. Wiki folks already explained to me if the "edit" works and the "read" doesn't work, that's exactly how it's supposed to be working and means 100% working fine and no bug. So I simply leave it at that. 49.151.128.122 (talk) 13:32, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
- Note that the file size is only the amount of size it takes in storage, but not in actual memory. An image displayed on screen needs a lot more memory. Most images use compression techniques to reduce the file size to optimize for delivery, but uncompressing and rendering them on screen takes CPU cycles and memory. Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 13:57, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
- you're talking about the web browser here. MediaWiki has no control over how chrome or firefox manages memory.
- That said, i'm doubtful that local computer running out of memory was the issue described in the beggining of this thread. I don't think TheDJ was suggesting that either (please correct me if im wrong), only suggesting that if you fixed the other issue you would likely hit local memory usage issues.
- I think we are at a standstill because it is very hard to debug further without mediawiki debug logs. Bawolff (talk) 04:02, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- p.s. in case its ueful to you, i made extension:QuickInstantCommons which makes instant commons somewhat faster. Bawolff (talk) 18:28, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah that is actually helpful - but I'm not managing the server and the person who is - is not interested in installing a beta package to see if it speeds up things.
- So we have no idea how it'll impact these galleries having these issues - until it's released. 49.151.128.122 (talk) 13:33, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
- Its marked as stable now if that's helpful. However extension stable vs beta statuses are pretty meaningless and not applied consistently.
- It is an extension though. As of right now there are no plans to merge into core. Bawolff (talk) 04:07, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Returning svg in lua module
Is there any way to return svg using a lua module? I tried to do it and it seems to go through the parser which then views svg as raw html... Any ideas? 65.92.83.38 (talk) 23:13, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- I realise this is basically impossible to do without doing something complicated like creating a new extension since otherwise anyone could insert ra html into pages. I'm just wondering if it can be done by creating a new module namespace and then specifying that the string return shouldnt be considered wikitext? 65.92.83.38 (talk) 23:24, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
- No. Someone once had a patch for this a long time ago (with server side rendering, whole deal), but it never ended up going anywhere.
- If you trust all your users i guess there is manual:$wgRawHtml Bawolff (talk) 00:30, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Hello. I am trying to transfer a mediawiki 1.35 that works fine locally on a cloudways server but I got only a blank page. I put the databa user in localsettings but ....

How to personalize the title style without html
Hello there,
First, sorry for my bad english, it's not my first language.
Second, I just created a local website with mediawiki and I've already searched help in the website but didn't find any answer (or didn't see it). Sorry in advance if I didn't post this subject at the right section or if there already is an answer somewhere. I hope you could help or redirect me.
My question : is it possible to personalize the frame title (=, ==, ===) without using html (h2, h3, h4) ?
For example, instead of using "<h2 style="color:red;">my title</h2>, I want to automatically do it with "== my title ==" and personalize somewhere (common.css ?) "==" in red.
Thank you. Veektaur (talk) 14:45, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Something like h2 {color: red} in MediaWiki:Common.css should do it. Jonathan3 (talk) 15:05, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Jonathan3,
- Thank you for your reply but if you read my first message, it is precisely that I don't want to do. I want to personnalize directly the style of the mediawiki's tag =, == or ===.
- Is it possible ?
- Thanks Veektaur (talk) 12:37, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- I think I answered your question :-) You wanted to avoid using HTML heading tags on the wiki page, wanted to continue using wikitext markup for headings, but wanted to style the headings using CSS.
- Maybe the missing information is that MediaWiki converts wikitext into HTML, so it's the equivalent HTML tags that you style in Common.css. Jonathan3 (talk) 12:49, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oh sorry and thank you for the explanation ! I didn't understand what you suggested in the first place. :-S
- And yes, you're right, it works perfectly with h2 {color: red} =)
- But the text in the menu or my username took already the red color. Could you confirm me that it's not possible to avoid it ?
- Thank you Veektaur (talk) 11:34, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Error: Class 'Shellbox\Shellbox' not found
Hello folks, I have a MediaWiki site running on version 1.36. The site was working perfectly fine but just recently I updated some dependencies through composer and since then I'm seeing this error "Error: Class 'Shellbox\Shellbox' not found" on every namespace except Special, Watchlist and Recent changes. I tried to find out the cause but can't find anything helpful so can someone please help?
Thank you 123.136.152.220 (talk) 18:27, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Well shellbox is a dependency, so probably an issue with how you updated dependencies. Bawolff (talk) 00:38, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Bawolff I was again trying to install/update dependencies using the command
composer install --no-devin my root directory but due to the conflict "wikimedia/shellbox 1.0.4 requires guzzlehttp/guzzle ~7.2.0 -> found guzzlehttp/guzzle[7.2.0] but it conflicts with your root composer.json require (7.2.0, ^6.0.0)." I'm not able to install or update. Any solution for that? 123.136.151.44 (talk) 03:11, 29 October 2021 (UTC) - What version of mediawiki, and is your package.json exactly as it is in the official version. Bawolff (talk) 04:04, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Bawolff 1.36.2 and I made no changes to package.json so it's exactly as it is in the official version. 123.136.151.44 (talk) 13:39, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
- The error message is saying that composer.json is requiring guzzle ^6.0.0, however https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/1.36.2/composer.json doesn't include v6 of guzzle, so check your composer.json matches https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/1.36.2/composer.json Bawolff (talk) 18:02, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

How do I protect mediawiki from outside data harvisters?
Hello, I am very frustrated with a situation I can't seem to address. I have an active mediawiki website that I am the only active member. I have 2,377 pages and I am using version 1.31.0. PHP 7.0.15 / MySQL 5.6.47 (I am limited by my host; I can't find a working uprade that matches my available PHP version.)
My site shuts down constantly due to the massive downloading of content. I have viewed my log files only to see a list of everything from picture files to thumbnails being "sucked" off my site from some automated source by a laundry list of IP addresses. As I look at mediawiki, it appears to me that Special Pages: "Recent changes and logs" offers a roadmap to all the files bypassing the individual wiki pages and chewing up my hourly resources. My site is monetized through adsense which helps offset costs to operate but it's hard to generate revenue when the site goes "off line"
I don't think I can eliminate all of it, but is there SOMETHING I can do to limit or protect my data? I really don't know know where to go for help.
Thanks Pom Media (talk) 12:59, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Pages with iframe not accessable (blanco and cannot delete or change them)
I have some pages with iframe but by changing from PHP version these pages became blanco. I cannot delete them neither (only by accessing mysql).
Is there a way to detect these pages with iframes and to remove the iframes so I don't have to delete these pages and make them again ? Stevy7 (talk) 08:09, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
- OK, I solved the problem by deleting the page Widget:Iframe from my wiki.
- (it was a widget that allows you to embed any web page on your wiki page using an iframe tag.)
- Now I can watch the pages again and remove the iframes manually.
- Thanks anyway. Stevy7 (talk) 08:26, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
- Enabling php error reporting might help to tell you why its happening to prevent similar things from happening in the future.
- Although it sounds like your sorted, if something similar happens again, you can delete pags via the API Bawolff (talk) 09:08, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
Extend AuthManagerSpecialPage to allow additional field types
I'm upgrading an MW instance from 1.25.1 to 1.36.2 and the previous developer had implemented a custom registration form with some additional fields.
When attempting to implement this using an AuthenticationRequest, I am only limited to 'string', 'password', 'select', 'checkbox', 'multiselect', 'button', 'hidden', or 'null', which prevents me from replicating the radio list the current form has.
Without modifying the core file it self (includes/specialpage/AuthManagerSpecialPage.php) is there any other way to allow other field types? GRoberts84 (talk) 09:01, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
