[Bug 18977] Local links in CentralNotice broken on secure.wikimedia.org
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18977 --- Comment #12 from Brion Vibber br...@wikimedia.org 2011-11-29 20:53:17 UTC --- This isn't an issue with the newer https://en.wikipedia.org/ etc. secure.wikimedia.org isn't 100% dead yet, but unless there are specific banners that are broken I'd recommend closing this out. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

{{localurl}} won't work in CentralNotice banners since they don't actually live
on the local wiki, but on meta, and are pulled dynamically via a JSONP request.
{{SITENAME}} wouldn't work either, except that it's specifically hacked in.
One workaround would be to use Javascript in the banner to test for
wgServer=https://secure.wikimedia.org; and adjust the URL accordingly.

I'm not sure how this is a WONTFIX. WONTFIX means we're never, ever going to
fix this, so stop asking. It seems reasonable that if Wikimedia is going to
offer a secure server and if Wikimedia is going to add banners to every page,
it should include links that don't needlessly leave the secure server.
An alternate suggestion might be to disable the banners entirely on the secure
server. ;-) Even implementing this (sillier) solution wouldn't resolve this
bug properly, though. I'm not sure why or how a determination has been made
that it's never going to be fixed.

If you feel like it's important to fix this (rather than work around it) in the meantime, feel free to reopen. I got a bit confused about this bug's scope. I created a test banner here to test link syntax: http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:NoticeTemplate/viewtemplate=Bug18977test It can be previewed live here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sitenoticebanner=Bug18977test This test re-reminded me how limited the banner parser is. I'm not sure what issue exactly Robert was hitting, so I'll leave it to him to re-open this bug as necessary. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

Does {{localurl:}} work for this? From reading the code and seeing how the
extension is used on the secure server, it seems to me it should, but I
haven't
actually tested it.
I have the recollection that someone said they tested it and localurl did not
work. But I certainly didn't try it myself and could be misremembering.

I asked Brion about this on IRC. He said {{localurl:}} wouldn't work, though he
noted you could just use non-relative URLs.

I'm not completely sure that will work with the notices, I know they've been
iffy about wikitext before (ie. they wouldn't let us use {{GRAMMAR:}} in the
fundraising translations). Have you tested it, by any chance?

Ignore me, this is what happens when you comment on bugs in the middle of the
night. ;-) I ignored the n't on MZMcBride's post.

(Ps. I suggested the same thing before at

but got no definite answer then.)
