Brigde SMF & MediaWiki

[Snakehit]

Hi,

I've written a bridge between SMF & MediaWiki.

All information can be found here

Will this support special characters?

And support strange usernames with Caps letters and spaces just to name some examples

Hello,
I just wrote this up;
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=197196.msg1254317#new
And i've just realised it should be here! damn!

I tried 2 diff bridges, one being yours. But it didn't work!
I get:
Notice: Undefined variable: result in /wiki/includes/Title.php on line 1112

solutions?

It will support everything that is supported by SMF when you register your username. The caps will be taken over.

I've just looked up into my database and I have this kind of nicknames

my nickname
my.nickname
My.Nickname
my_nickname
my-nickname
[my]nickname
mynicKname!
MYNICKNAME

What the script does is very simple, it takes your memberName from $smf_user_info and add it to the mw_users database.

You've downloaded the zipfile and installed every file in the zip? There aren't modifications on Title.php so i'm not quite sure what the problem can be.

Did you do some changes?

[Jungle-Cat]

Oh...
Am I suppose to add those files to their relevant file or copy and replace?
Becayse I copied and replaced...

[Snakehit]

Add and replace those files yes...

[Jungle-Cat]

I've made no changes.
I've coped all files and replaced, added the LocalSettigns stuff to the bottom of LocalSettigns.php

I get the error still...

[Snakehit]

Can you give me the link to your mediawikiwebsite and FTP access? Send me with PM, i'll take a closer look at it.

By the way: Are you still using other bridges? And when you get the error, directly after loading or when you edit some stuff...

Works fine so far

BTW, isn't there some template/skin/theme you can use, because it looks kind of hard configuring everything there...

Nice ;-) , good to hear that.

What do you mean with config your skin? I can add a skin to the package, but I don't see the point because the skin doesn't have any code included with this package.

You have the Userlogin.php file where everything for login/logout is added.

[Paracelsus]

I meant something that could be more SMF-like, I mean, not to have to customize all the pages from the beginning - if some templates could exist, you would just have to make some changes. When I see it for the first time, I just remember Joomla templates and how easy it is to choose a different template... same as SMF.

But oh well, that's just my lazyness talking...

Congrats for the good job.

[Snakehit]

Yes, but I have some questions for you too.

Is your wiki also so slow :s, I have already been searching for 3 days to get my wiki speed much faster. I think it's because the caching but when I enable it doesn't makes any difference.

[Paracelsus]

I don't know if it's slow or not... I have no tools in the server to speed it up, so I really can't make any comparison... I'm thinking to install it on another server to my "official" forum, which probably has some of those things mentioned in Wiki installation to speed it up, but that may take a while...

Does this work with short URLS enabled?

I got error messages saying SMF_Auth cannot be found.

[Snakehit]

You have this path?
// require the Auth_SMF.php
require_once './extensions/Auth_SMF.php';

$wgAuth = new Auth_SMF();

NVM, whoops I forgot to upload the API. Thanks

[Snakehit]

Good work. Does it works?

[Flying Drupalist]

Yes, thanks!
