Sugestions:

  or
  http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/ro/Main_Page
  I will work on it
  
  
• Add a new member group who have permission to write on Wiki SMF,  and the normal members not.
  
  
  Thanks!

New sugestion it's added

[Draffi]

It must be nice, to share this mediawiki skin with other user from mediawiki/smf....

[Oldiesmann]

Vyored - you will need to make your changes again. Due to something not being set up properly (SleePy's fault ), all of the changes you made yesterday were made to the English version, so I had to undo them. Thanks for offering to help though

As far as who can edit it - the beauty of a wiki is that anyone can edit it. I think it's fine as it is right now, but we will consider changes such as limiting who can edit it if we end up running into trouble in the future. Fortunately, MW is a very powerful script, so there are plenty of ways to help combat abusive edits (protecting pages, blocking individual users from editing things, etc.).

Ok Oldiesmann.


Edit: Bug to button of edit

[nend]

I have also added a little bit of stuff in there, be a bad idea if it was all of sudden cut off from member edits. I like it the way it is.

Hi Oldiesmann, I haven't seen you since LSP. Your working with the SMF project now I can see.

[divecall]

Me too, count me in !

It would be nice if SOMEBODY have the SMF-MEDIAWIKI-Skin, and share this for this public....i need this !

Thank you in advance

I actually coded the SMF Curve Theme for MediaWiki, and as far as I know, it will eventually be publicly released. There are still quite a few changes needing to be done to the coding. In addition to a couple problems that could happen when it would be redistributed to other installations outside of Simple Machines.

[Baloch]

Is it not compatible with SMF 2.0 RC3 ?

[Acans]

The thing is its just a skin, not SMF.

The integration was done by SleePy, however I'm not sure if he would ever release it.

[SleePy]

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SMF_Auth_Integration

We use a heavily modified version of that extension.  I overhauled it to support some basic session and mw options based caches.  As well changed a few things around and tried to clean it up a bit.  It also now supports non database sessions (which was tricky).

I do intend to release it back the community.

[Draffi]

Please, it is possible, to make this "smf_curve" Skin public for the mediawiki-user ?

thank you !

Hey, what happened here?
http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Ro/Pagina_Principala

I am not edited!

[SleePy]

We are still working on translations aspect of the wiki (thats why it hasn't been announced and is in beta testing).  One thing I know right now is that the url won't be changing into other languages at this time.

Thank you for all hard works first... Then i want to ask about permissions ?

SMF Wiki is like normal wikis (which everyone can edit) or just some members (Translators+Mods+SMF Team) only edit ?

[Trekkie101]

Everyone should be able to edit it, for example I just cleaned up the Install docs today.

Ok.
Can i restore the page now?

[Acans]

Everybody can edit it, however till the language problem is sorted out, English only I'm afraid.

[Yigal]

I think it'll be a while before other languages will be sorted..imagine genuinely translating all pages.

[Joshua Dickerson]

It is one of our top priorities.

[NanoSector]

Not being a dick or something, but does someone have a leak of the Curve theme for MediaWiki?

Ya see, I want to have everything look like my forum; even my wiki (which is hidden from the public)

[Kindred]

not yet

[Joshua Dickerson]

LMAO, you're asking the people that made the skin if they have a leak? Uh, yeah... I have a leak. You'll have to wait though since it isn't complete and there are a lot of other things which we'd like to complete.

Is the question that bad.....?

[Joshua Dickerson]

It's like asking Bill Gates if he has a leak of the new Windows.

[Matthew K.]

Groundup - I think he was more asking if it was available to the public yet...or anyone in the general public had it.

Yoshi - I do believe I am one of the only people outside of the team that has the code for the theme; which is simply because I was the one who made it You'll just have to wait until SMF is ready to release it.

[青山 素子]

If you're that desperate to have it, build it yourself. The graphic assets can be easily downloaded. You'll just need to adjust the coding and CSS. If you can't do all that, wait for a proper release.

[Matthew K.]

It was actually quite complicated. It wasn't as easy as you'd assume. I would highly suggest just waiting until it's released...which will happen, and it should be shortly. But, good luck to you if you decide to try.

You..are part of the SMF team?

[Matthew K.]

You don't have to be apart of the team to contribute to SMF, Yoshi

[NanoSector]

Oh yeah forgot that.

[search24sc]

I would also like some more information regarding this.

Its not *that* hard, but require some time spent on it. I recently created a MediaWiki version of Curve for a client, and it turned out not so different from SMF wiki one.

[Matthew K.]

I do believe that's illegal without permission from the SMF Team. Because it uses SMF's images.

Actually, since Bloc made the images in the first place, he retains the rights to use them as he sees fit,

[Matthew K.]

Oh wow, Bloc, I didn't know you made Curve?!

[NanoSector]

Bloc...made...Curve?!

AWESOME!

[Yigal]

He is like... a super graphic designer xD.

[bloc]

That might be but Curve theme has always been the property of Simple Machines after that, to be used as it wishes. My reasoning behind this Wiki theme was: this was a client which used a Curve default theme on his site, using actively SMF and only wanted a Wiki with the Curve "look" to match that, on his own site only. So it didn't feel as anything betraying that relationshio IMHO. Had it been a public theme for Wiki users generally(which could be used on non-SMF sites too) I would not made it.

Oh wow, Bloc, I didn't know you made Curve?!

Yes, I did make the first draft of it..but note that Curve theme have been molded by many into what it is today. Its coding and graphics that was changed and corrected..many of the current team and several that have left, worked hard on that(and still do lol). I am not so good with perfecting things, like the Curve theme needs(and needed), more of a person trying new things and ideas instead. But I am very happy it became of use for SMF and now also used within MediaWiki.

He is like... a super graphic designer xD.

Ehm...thanks lol

My personal hope is that more people hook into SMF and dare to do new and exciting things with themes. Its been somewhat slow past year, lets hope 2011 will change that. I'll certainly try to do my bit of it.

[Arantor]

You signed the CLAs same as the rest of us, presumably, which grants you the right to use your work how you see fit as well as giving the irrevocable right to do the same to SMF.

[bloc]

Yes, I have.

Wow! Very nice. 

[Özgür]

I don't see the main topic about wiki. Can i ask question in here? Can we allowed to add multilangual entrys in wiki? Like Turkish for example ? Or will you make anything like wiki.sm.org/tr/ ?

[Illori]

take a look at http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=411042.0 and subscribe to the wiki editors member group.

[johny28]

I think it'll be a while before other languages.

[Yigal]

I think it'll be a while before other languages.

They're trying their best   There's a lot of content xP

[SleePy]

Its not content.  Its me and the docs team trying to figure out the translate extension and get it working right

[CASMAN]

Docs Team will get it !

[GravuTrad]

An example of curve theme in mediawiki:

For the translate extension, what kind of problem?

Any news on this?

Will it be permitted to use the theme on non-SMF sites?

[Matthew K.]

Once SMF hits 2.0 final, the theme should be able to be released. Although changes are being done to the theme.

[-=[Vyorel]=-]

Add one menu on left, with languages pages.

[Draffi]

Once SMF hits 2.0 final, the theme should be able to be released.

It is now...

something news here?

[Illori]

no, the team is busy with other things and the theme has not finished being polished to be released.
