i have a little problem, my problem is the Sidebar, atm its not a side bar, its under the content, but i want the sidebar on the right side, like the forum, how can i do that?

[DaffyDuck]

I take it that this mod has been orphaned / abandoned, seeing as how the manual and screenshot links go to a server that is no longer operational?

[iamacyborg]

Daffy, it's working perfectly for me on the latest version of vB 4 and Mediawiki.
The manual will automatically be installed on your site when you install the mod, so it's no problem.
You can see it working here: http://www.hellgateforums.com/wiki

Even if it's working currently, without an active developer it'd be a bit dangerous to install it, given that you might be put in a situation of having to decide between site security and a working wiki.

Anyone got instruction on how to install this i dont have any wiki on my site yet

[nima6]

Im installing this mod on my forums and will report the result.

here is a working link to the manual: http://wamp-forum.com/wiki/skins/vbmediawiki/

[nima6]

Oh boy, i love this mod. Im just getting started with it but its absolutely amazing if you have already have an active wiki

If you dont have a wiki, whats the hold up?

[ndahiya]

I upgraded to Mediawiki 1.17 and vbulletin 4.1.5 - integration still works.

See post 300 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=300 ) and also post 301 for some discussion on style integration.


separately, for those having issues (previously) with uploading images / thumbnails, it had something to do with a imagemagick bug. this is the workaround i use in LocalSettings.php - seems to work fine.

# $wgUseImageMagick = true;
# $wgImageMagickConvertCommand = "/usr/bin/convert";
$wgCustomConvertCommand = "/usr/bin/convert -resize %wx%h %s %d";

Dont know what iam doing wrong, but my useraccounts/access isnt ported to the media wiki.
it just states "you are not logged in" but no matter how often a login is tryed.. in the board success in the wiki still not logged in.

Awesome mod, too bad it isn't supported. I'd certainly pay for it.

Anyways, anyone know which template to modify to add an image to the sidebar. It doesn't look like monobook.php is the correct one. Thanks
