mediawiki updated on test.springrts.com

Post by Tobi »

On http://test.springrts.com/wiki I've updated mediawiki to 1.19.1, since our current version, MW 1.16.0, is no longer supported.

Major change is the editor: the WYSIWYG plugin we had installed in MW 1.16 does not exist for MW 1.19, so it has been removed. We don't go back to the crappy editor we had before that though, as MW 1.19 includes the editor used also by wikipedia et. al., so I've restyled that one a bit to fit better into the Spring site.

Please test (database is a copy of this site as of a week ago), and let us know any bugs you stumble upon, so we know whether this is good enough to deploy to the main site.

PS: Also we updated phpbb to 3.0.10 (from 3.0.6) a week ago, not many changes there as far as I have seen.

the search results link to normal wiki.

i could not get the ref-tag to work. (for foot notes)
wikipedia says they do not show in preview but after saving they just showed as text still. (more likely doing it wrong than bug)

Thanks for testing!

Looks like this isn't configured in the site itself, but rather in some google control panel. Not that important though, as long as the search on the real site keeps pointing to the real site :-)

Same for me and I copied the example from the help :-)
So might be something misconfigured after all, will take a look at that.

Another point: inline help in the editor is light gray on white, aka unreadable.

Something seems to have changed the font size when using <span class="warning">

also the 'categories' box at the end of the page has lost the spacing between links, c.f. http://springrts.com/wiki/Units-UnitDefs#Examples
