Summary: Set $wgDisableHardRedirects = false; on wikimediafoundation.org Product: Wikimedia Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Keywords: shell Severity: trivial Priority: Normal Component: Site requests AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: b...@mzmcbride.com According to http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/CommonSettings.php.txt $wgDisableHardRedirects is set to "true" for all Wikimedia wikis. This setting prevents redirects to Special pages, among other things. For example, http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Comments doesn't redirect properly currently. This global setting in Wikimedia's configuration file is contrary to the default setting for a MediaWiki install. On a fishbowl wiki like wikimediafoundation.org, it shouldn't be an issue to set $wgDisableHardRedirects = false;. It probably wouldn't be an issue to do it for all private/fishbowl wikis, but that's not as much of a concern (to me, at least). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
