Re: [MediaWiki-l] Upload of png or svg files

There can be various causes, but your file path makes me suspect that it might have something to do with the fact that your 'local' files are on a shared/network file segment. Maybe your client isn't allowed to lock files on this share. But see

Re: [MediaWiki-l] Lua/Scribunto

Maybe you missed that table.foo (and similarly string.foo) is the prototype for any someTable, which thus automatically has someTable.foo(). And that someTable:foo(args) is just syntactic sugar for someTable.foo( someTable, args ) ? It's one of those weird Lua quirks DJ On Mon, Jul 16, 2018 at

Re: [MediaWiki-l] Using JQuery in a tag extension

This might be a typo in your message, but it's jQuery, not jquery. Also you can shorten that page ready code, see: http://learn.jquery.com/using-jquery-core/document-ready/ By default, jQuery and it's alias $ are always available in MediaWiki. However, we often tend to import globals and then

Re: [MediaWiki-l] is there a way to get all js/css module dependencies for a given wikimedia page ?

"all" is a lot, and not likely to be what you want. All includes skinning, libraries, content scripts, site scripts, user scripts etc. javascript, css, userinterface message etc... All have different elements to them that might not fit your use case, so identifying that is important. Furthermore,

Re: [MediaWiki-l] Edit Toobar Missing

Double check if your upgrade went ok. Often people only update core, forgetting either to update extensions or skins, or something went wrong during the upgrade and they just skipped over the error message. DJ > On 19 Jan 2017, at 11:15, Bri wrote: > > I recently

Re: [MediaWiki-l] non whitelisted namespaces?

This means exactly what it says. There is a script in the file, that a webbrowser might execute, which is a security risk. Judging from http://sozi.baierouge.fr/pages/10-about.html, the script in the file is probably just used to do animations, but MediaWiki cannot know that. You can flip the

Re: [MediaWiki-l] Google Code-in: First week achievements!

The answer is not as simple as that. First let's try to explain the structure a bit. All existing skins are a combination of a PHP template and a set of CSS. When we say Vector, we mean the PHP UI template vector, and the CSS that goes with that template. This template itself only handles

Re: [MediaWiki-l] Syntax highlight for wikitext?

One of the reasons is that it is rather inefficient. Not more than VisualEditor, but still. There definitely would be people who would want to disable it. It's also imperfect. It makes mistakes in highly complex pages. Something similar was in in the works for WikiEditor some 4 years ago, but it
