How do I create a wiki? I want to create a wiki for Demon Accords like the people who created the Supernatural wiki. How do I go about that?

The correct meta tags are generated, but the page source starts with:

<div id="mw-content-text" lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr"><div class="mw-parser-output"><p>FOO

I must be doing something wrong, but I can't seem to figure out what. (OpenGraphMeta and Description2 are both installed and loading properly)

Any thoughts?

Do you know if it's possible to allow registered users to view particular special pages, but prevent users in the banned user group (made with $wgRevokePermissions) from viewing them? I'd like for all users to have access to RecentChanges, but not for the troll who has been stalking it. I don't think there's a need for anons who can't edit to read it.

I don't use Lockdown at all. And I don't really see any reason to hide recent changes.

Ok. I'll see if anyone else knows if there's a solution. I'm hiding it from a troll who has repeatedly spewed racist interpretations of our content, and from what we can tell, has been stalking the recent changes page literally every day for over a year.

I used the directions here http://blog.redwerks.org/2012/02/28/mediawiki-subskin-tutorial/ to create a modified Vector skin here http://en.sturmkrieg.com but the CSS doesn't seem to work. I copied the Vector.css and some of the Common.css wiki pages into the screen.css file, and for some reason, only some of the CSS seems to work, as can be seen here http://en.sturmkrieg.com/index.php?title=Sturmkrieg_Wiki&useskin=sturmkrieg

Try adding 'skin.vector' to the dependencies of your skins RL module. And use addModules instead of addModuleStyles.

Where is the RL module? Is that in the skin files or one of the core files?

EDIT

I found this in sturmkrieg.php

$wgResourceModules['skins.sturmkrieg'] = array(
	'styles' => array(
		'sturmkrieg/screen.css' => array( 'media' => 'screen' ),
	),
	'remoteBasePath' => &$GLOBALS['wgStylePath'],
	'localBasePath' => &$GLOBALS['wgStyleDirectory'],
);

Where should I add it?

This post was posted by Lieutenant S. Reznov, but signed as Inquisitor Ehrenstein.

Make that:

$wgResourceModules['skins.sturmkrieg'] = array(
	'styles' => array(
		'sturmkrieg/screen.css' => array( 'media' => 'screen' ),
	),
	'dependencies' => 'skin.vector',
	'remoteBasePath' => &$GLOBALS['wgStylePath'],
	'localBasePath' => &$GLOBALS['wgStyleDirectory'],
);

Btw, your url shouldn't have []'s in it.

And remember to update addModuleStyles to addModules.

Thanks. I added the 'dependencies' => 'skin.vector', line. Are you say this line $wgResourceModules['skins.sturmkrieg'] = array( should not have the [] in it?

EDIT

I have this

$wgResourceModules['skins.sturmkrieg'] = array(
	'styles' => array(
		'sturmkrieg/screen.css' => array( 'media' => 'screen' ),
	),
	
	'remoteBasePath' => &$GLOBALS['wgStylePath'],
	'localBasePath' => &$GLOBALS['wgStyleDirectory'],
	'dependencies' => 'skin.vector'
);

It doesn't seem to work.

You've done something strange. Your skin isn't even loading 'skins.sturmkrieg' anymore.

I changed addModuleStyles to addModules. For some reason, it doesn't load any of the sturmkrieg/screen.css when I set that. I'm guessing maybe I should change it back to useModuleStyles? I'll set it back to that for now. When it does that, some of the CSS for the new skin loads, but most of it seems to be the Vector CSS.

I'll update this code here, that lists the code for the skin.

Do you know what to do when only some of the CSS is loading? useModuleStyles seems to load some of the CSS from the new skin, while useModules doesn't use any of it.

I'm using MW 1.17.5. Is there anything I need to do differently?

This post was posted by Lieutenant S. Reznov, but signed as Inquisitor Ehrenstein.

Please upgrade, 1.17 is EOL. And lots of the skinning stuff is not available.

Will the method work for MW 1.19? If so, I will upgrade to that.

I was saying that the 'url' in $wgExtensionCredits['skin'][] shouldn't have '[]' around the url. It's a plain url, not wikisyntax expecting external link syntax.

Ok, I see. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback! I just released 0.1.1 of Extension:Realnames. It should address everything you mentioned (save 1.18 integration and possible slowdowns on RC and History -- waiting for feedback for those).

Hallo Dantman - super Extension! Dazu habe ich zwei Fragen:

1. Wie kann ich den Donate Button OHNE Hauptmenupunkt direkt im Sidebar platzieren? (D.h.: Statt "Donate"->Donate Button nur "Donate Button" - also auf Stufe "Main page")
2. Wie kann ich die Reihenfolge ändern? Ich möchte den Donate Button nämlich ganz oben anzeigen lassen...

Im SidebarDonateBox.php vermute ich, dass man $bar['Donate'] = $egSidebarDonateBoxContent; anpassen müsste, nur leider kenne ich mich mit PHP (noch) nicht so gut aus...

P.S.: Ich verwende MW 1.16 mit dem Vector Skin.

Viele Grüsse

I was wondering if you knew how to fix an error in SpecialThemeDesigner.php line #75 echo Html::closeElement('body'); ?
I can not read all the error message as it is displayed behind the skins dropdown. Here is the link to my wiki's Special pages . Also the extension is not showing up on the version page here . You can leave a reply (if you would) Here or my main account Here.
Thank you
