Eprints Issue!!!
Please help.
As admin if I were to create a new user, is it possible to set auto mail to the new user?
The content of the mail is to basically welcome the new user and provide them with their account username and password.
The flow:
Super admin creates a new user > User receives mail based on the email address entered by super admin> User checks mail > The mail content contains username & password for the user to log into the system.
Maybe it seemed unrelated to MediaWiki, but I see that EPrints has a wiki: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Main_Page
What about Extension:New User Email Notification. It's tagged as "unmaintained" but also as MW1.35+ which presumably didn't happen by itself :-)
The create account page has a create account by email option that does this (you have to be logged in as a different user to do this)
I am trying to set auto mail function when super admin user goes to create user. An auto mail will be send to the new user notifying them that an account has been created for them and the details of the account.
I have created a frontend module with HTML-CSS which is a "call now" sticky button.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="./css/mobile_general_structure.css"></link> <link rel="stylesheet" href="./css/nonmobile_general_structure.css"></link> </head> <body> <div dir="rtl" class="camowb_main_box"> <div class="camowb_phone_box"> <a class="camowb_phone_link" href="https://wa.me/NUMBER"> <img class="camowb_phone_icon" src="./images/whatsapp.svg"></img> <span class="camowb_phone_text">WhatsApp</span> </a> </div> </div> </body> </html>
example.com/call_now).What would be a reasonable way to initiate/boot the module in every MediaWiki webpage?
@Bawolff I will try to explain the core matter again better:
In my website directory example.com I have created a sub directory example.com/my_sub_directory in which I put a file index.html containing a "call now" button which I want to appear to in any webpage of my MediaWiki website.
Hi, not sure if this is the right place to post, but I just found out that U-37's quotes audio are actually u-81's whereas u-81's audio is correct.
Greetings,
In a server on my workplace, we've installed Mediawiki 1.35 running on a NGinx / Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS setup.
We attempted to set up VisualEditor during the install process, but it simply do not open when we click on "edit" (nothing happens, it does not crash also).
As a placeholder, we are using TinyMCE but visual editor is a lot better and we need to set it up.
During our investigations on the cause of the problem, we've noticed that when Parsoid calls the rest.php located on the root folder of the installation, it returns a 404 error. We already checked the Nginx config file and the rest.php location is set there, so this should not happen.
Any help from this forum will be really helpful for us, we are kinda of chasing our own tails.
Hello everybody, i don't understand how this api work. How can i authenticate with token, username and password? I have many tried and I don't know what to do next :(.
$wikiUrl = "http://www.example.de";
$endPoint = "http://www.example.de/api.php";
$createAccount_Token = getCreateAccountToken(); // Step 1
createAccount( $createAccount_Token );
function getCreateAccountToken() {
global $endPoint;
$params1 = [
"action" => "query",
"meta" => "tokens",
"type" => "createaccount",
"format" => "json"
#username, password???? login token with credentials works not -,-
];
$url = $endPoint . "?" . http_build_query( $params1 );
$ch = curl_init( $url );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie.txt" );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookie.txt" );
$output = curl_exec( $ch );
curl_close( $ch );
echo $url;
$result = json_decode( $output, true );
return $result["query"]["tokens"]["createaccounttoken"];
}
function createAccount( $createAccount_Token ) {
global $endPoint, $wikiUrl;
$params2 = [
"action" => "createaccount",
"createtoken" => $createAccount_Token,
"username" => "test",
"password" => "test",
"retype" => "test",
"createreturnurl" => $wikiUrl,
"format" => "json"
];
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $endPoint );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, true );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query( $params2 ) );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie.txt" );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookie.txt" );
$output = curl_exec( $ch );
curl_close( $ch );
echo( $output );
}
PHP output:
json{"createaccount":{"status":"FAIL","message":"Diese Aktion ist auf Benutzer beschr\u00e4nkt, die der Gruppe \u201e[[ Wiki:Administratoren|Administratoren]]\u201c angeh\u00f6ren.","messagecode":"permissiondenied"}}
What it says: "Diese Aktion ist auf Benutzer beschr\u00e4nkt, die der Gruppe Administratoren angeh\u00f6ren"; permission denied.
Hello Everyone I am Trying to install Extension:Scribunto and I got stuck at here
This extension runs on top of an executable. You must have permission to run executables on your host in order for this extension to work.
So I contacted them and they gave me the link to enable it.. But the settings is in the php.ini File which is : To enable exec() function, you need to remove it from the following line in your php.ini file:
disable_functions = "show_source, system, shell_exec, exec"
And I later found out I don't have php.ini file.. They already told me how to create new one.. But the problem is The file is Empty. Where do I get the configurations or where can I download an already made Php.ini....
Secondly ;-I am on shared hosting and my current Php version is 7.4 .. Should i upgrade to version 8.0???????????
I can only answer the last question... don't upgrade to PHP 8 yet - see Compatibility#PHP.
With the other stuff... maybe try out a cheap unmanaged VPS - I'm on Digital Ocean now and things "just work" (like Scribunto) including things that I had difficulty with for years on a shared server.
I don't know whether you should or not :-) Can't do any harm. It'll only cost $5 or whatever to find out.
hello,
a couple of weeks ago all my embeded content on the land wiki alliance stopped working. its just says "this content is blocked, contact site owner to resolve the issue". It used to work fine. Can someone help me solve this?
We are not the site owner of "land wiki alliance". You need to contact "land wiki alliance" for this.

I have neglected to keep a list of which extensions are installed on my mediawiki instance. I run it on Apache on my host and have configured my backups with an old tool called backup-manager, where I specify which databases to backup from my db instance, and which directories on my file system.
Can I backup my extensions directory and then just restore it simply into the right place when doing a restore, in order to re-install all my extensions?
Thanks
Yes, assuming you backed up the other things you need (LocalSettings.php, skins etc) that would be a way to resurrect your extensions.
