I'd rather suspect that MediaWiki version and extension version could be incompatible, or, perhaps an outdated version of PHP is being used, or the core of MediaWiki was patched. Why not to paste the modified code or to provide the diffs somewhere? But I doubt that Parser questions can be answered quickly, because there are not many experts and they are busy on high profile jobs. You probably have to study the Parser yourself, although it's not easy task.

[Wikitech-l] Revise Permissions of Local wiki problem
Hi, I want to revise permissions of Local wiki. But this problem bothers me. For example, in DefaultSetting.php, there is $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['read'] = true; I want to revise in this way. If(……) { $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['read'] = false; } But the result is the value of $wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['read'] is still true,it can not be revised under the condition. Look forward to your reply.Thanks. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

What are the conditions in if()? When LocalSettings.php is executed, a lot of things are not ready. On 1/30/10, 李琴 wrote: > Hi, > I want to revise permissions of Local wiki.

I don't know, but the OS stats show only 6.75% of hits come from Macs, and I doubt many of them are using a browser that hasn't had an update since 2003. http://www.webdevelopersnotes.com/articles/internet_explorer_macintosh.php This is the only page I can find with any browser stats for IE for Mac and it shows that that domain receives less than 0.05% of hits from the browser (that was 6 months ago, but the graph shows that it has pretty much levelled out - varying between about 0.01% and 0.03%). ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

An important distinction is that IE for Mac users on Mac OS (classic) don't have the copious upgrade options available to IE 5.5 users on Windows. Most IE5.2 users should have upgraded to iCab. Do we have good iCab support? What are the remaining browsers available for Classic Mac OS users? Classilla is the only browser that I can quickly see is still maintained. -- John Vandenberg ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
[Wikitech-l] Description of process flow available?
Hi, Does MW.org provide some relatively high level description of the process flow / object interaction that is followed when rendering mediawiki pages? I've been searching mediawiki.org and the source tree from my mw installation but so far I only found class-based 'local' information. I am happy to contribute a more high level description, if that is not yet available, but would much prefer to use (and if needed contribute to) an existing description. Do we have class models and process flow descriptions available somewhere? I am most interested in the way Parser, ParserOutput, Skin and the related classes interoperate, as well as how user extensions and hooks are supposed to interact with the core mediawiki software. -- Regards, Jean-Marc -- . ___ . @@ // \\ "De Chelonian Mobile" .
