I believe I have resolved my wiki site issues today, but if anyone knows of a way to better solicit emergency support, please let me know of a link I can bookmark 		21:08:00

@freephile:matrix.orgrundgI wish the MediaWiki developer community was more focussed. It is so decentralized.23:05:30
@freephile:matrix.orgrundgMy company (Pegasystems) is interested in hiring MediaWiki talent, but it's very hard to find.23:06:15
@bryandamon:matrix.orgbryandamon

@sen-sai:matrix.orgCharly freephile: You have already hired the best.. What seems to be the problem ? 23:21:56

@freephile:matrix.orgrundgIt's really just a desire and a long-range "plan" meaning we are not actively hiring for a MediaWiki developer. but it was stated to me that finding /me/ was hard.23:25:42
@sen-sai:matrix.orgCharlywell.. you are one of a kind :-)23:26:25
@sen-sai:matrix.orgCharlyI meant that in the most positive way! 23:27:51

@ayahesham:matrix.orgAya changed their profile picture.11:00:54
@cicalese:matrix.orgcicaleseBracket matching in wikitext! This is huge! It is a new feature provided in the CodeMirror extension. Does anybody use it? I wonder if it can coexist with the SyntaxHighlight extension. https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2021-January/094205.html 13:16:17
@revansx:matrix.orgrevansxI've been meaning to checkout CodeMirror, but haven't.. yeah.. that will really be a great help to template developers13:21:23
@freephile:matrix.orgrundgI've deployed codemirror on FamilySearch wikis (running on 1.34) with SyntaxHighlight and it works great.14:58:50
@bryandamon:matrix.orgbryandamonI love CodeMirror ❤️16:17:12

I'm having a problem with rest.php and VE on a new wiki.

  • It was working when it was all anonymous, then
  • I added auth and started getting 401 (auth required)
  • Fixed the auth problem and now I'm getting 404 (not found) from the rest.php no matter what I feed it. rest.php itself is found and responding, it is just telling me it can't handle the params that (used to) work.

It looks like I was a victim of cargo-cult configuration. I had to use

$wgVirtualRestConfig['modules']['parsoid']['forwardCookies'] = true;

before, so I included it this time. Putting it in kept the VEParsoid service-wiring files from being loaded and caused VE to fail.
