Category connect with 2 wikis

Hello

i have 2 different wikis on one server:

wiki1.mysite.com and wiki2.mysite.com


i use the LocalSettings.php to redirect to the individual wikis.

these are created separately as LocalSettings_wiki1 and LocalSettings_wiki2.


i have the problem that i can't link categories with "wiki2" anymore.

i can create categories, but the link doesn't work anymore.


with wiki1 everything works fine.

when i create a new page and want to assign it to a category, i can't select the categories.


Does anyone know how to fix this?

What do you mean by "I can't select the categories"? Do you mean using the mouse to select the text of the category? The link? the title?

i'm editing a page and then i want to add categories, but they don't appear in the editior

in Options - Categories

I can't find the category


in the navigation menu all created categories are available

Ok, so you mean that option in the Visual Editor.

What do you mean by "linking categories"? Do you mean categories of wiki 2 will redirect users to wiki 1? Both wikis share the same categories?

Hi,

yes, it is in Visual Editor.

but there are no Links. Maybe the synchronisation of the new categories will not work.


Wiki1 is working normally.

If the category page doesn't exist on wiki 2, it will probably not appear at all and you must create it first

they are created and also listed on "Category Page".

but when I will edit a Page in the VisualEditor, the categories are not available.
