Thanks! This works for 'Rewrite Friendly URLs'.


@all: Who else is running vbMediaWiki on his server? (Mine: sinnimleben.net/wiki) More exemples would make it easier to debug / see where the problem is and perhaps report bug and solution all together.

O.k. Found another site running vBMediaWiki and this way also the point, breaking the template navbar on my site: vBMediaWiki leads the vB-variable $relpath to "wiki/Article" instead of "../wiki/Article", so {vb:raw relpath} cannot be used in the navbar for wiki pages.

This happens in the function fetch_relpath (class_core.php), since $basepath ist not the forum-base any more, but the wiki-base...

Workaround: Use

<vb:if  condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'mediawiki'">/</vb:if>{vb:raw relpath}

(on your site perhaps ../ or even something else).

Wow bepe, you've made massive progress in such a short time!

Just prepping my install for vb4 upgrade (Waiting for skin developer to finish) and have a couple of questions.

I changed the 'HTML Character Set' to utf-8 and don't appear to be having any ill effects. I use english however, is this only a problem on non-english languages?

Secondly, I've had my username regular expression as ^[A-Z0-9 ]+$ for the past few years, is allowing a space going to cause any problems?

My problem is the navbar doesn't register that your even in wiki nor do the sub menu load.

Hi Shawn

It's self made. I rewrote my posting vbMediaWiki 4.0.2 RC 2 #274 and deleted the old one which was unclear. I think, you have another Problem, but if your modifications also use {vb:raw relpath}, perhaps it helps replacing them with

<vb:if  condition="THIS_SCRIPT ==  'mediawiki'">/</vb:if>{vb:raw  relpath}

... But first deactivate each other Add to see which one causes the problem.

Good Luck!

Hey Bruno,

I have already tried disabling every mod on my site and still cannot find what is causing this problem, its a fresh 4.0.2 install, not upgrade from the 3.x series. I have checked and reverted every template, checked all file uploads, reinstalled product, maybe there is a issue with the suite, ergo; CMS and blogs.

I will try your solution, I need this MOD.

Thanks much.

Quick question: on the database, how many of you are using the new experimental binary option or did you go with the backwards compatible UTF-8?

Also myisam or innob?

[BRotondi]

Hi Shawn

First your wiki must run even without this mod. Can you post or PM a link? I use MediaWiki with

# MySQL table options to use during installation or update
$wgDBTableOptions   = "ENGINE=InnoDB, DEFAULT CHARSET=binary";

(... ngh... where can I see further settings??)

Greetings, Bruno

[ShawnV]

Oh the wiki was fine as stand alone, no link at the moment as I decided to reinstall and changed the engine to MyIsam since my server backup only supports that and not InnoDB. I also went with the binary.
