Cannot create new page from search
Normally to create a MediaWiki page, you can simply search for the article in your search box. If the page is not found, MediaWiki will prompt you to create the page. However, on my wiki, I am not prompted to create a new page. I can create a new page if I create a link of a word that does not have a page, but I don't get the link to create a new page from searching a page that does not exist. Is there any feature that must be enabled?

"Exception" error
Hello, and thank you again for your beautiful work!

My wiki is working well, but I have a problem when a new user has to set a new password at first access. The password input works, but after that I see a page which says (italian version):

Errore interno [6ed00020e037182f9468e092] 2020-01-16 10:55:53: Errore irreversibile di tipo "Exception"

Is it possible to fix it? (the best thing should be redirecting the user to a news page, like "Your account is ready, welcome and begin navigatioN"...

Why is new group in "Groups you cannot change" list?
I just created a new group (Editors2) to test. My current editors group members lost their ability to edit. I created a task on Maniphest (T5197). Meanwhile, I'm trying to set up a new group to see if it works better. But the group ended up in the column Groups you cannot change.

What do we do? -MeMeGuY

Can someone please give me a very basic and easy to follow guide to creating infoboxes and infobox templates to use on my wiki? Thank you
I mean the subject says it all- I've been trying for hours to figure out how to get an infobox to appear. I would like to create a template for an infobox for cities- so that when I use it for multiple pages, each one about a city, there will be an infobox with facts such as when it was founded, where it is located, who rules it, etc. Everything I have found is written by experts for other advanced users, and extreme absolute beginners like me can't understand a single word. Would somebody know what to do- how to get this result?

From what I've tried, I've received a template loop error, and now all it comes up with is "Template:Infobox" in red, not even "Template:Infobox city" like what I had written. I have a page called Templaet:Infobox city which has some code that looks (for example) like:

and on the page where I want the infobox to appear, I have something (once again, just an example) like:

The examples are just super basic and not actually what I use, but they're to the extent. If someone could please help me understand why the infobox is not appearing, instead saying there's a loop or plain red text, that would be much appreciated.

Side note, if I manage to understand how to get this up and running, having an image in the infobox would be much appreciated. I'm not sure if I'll be able to figure it out on my own, so if you want to explain how that works as well I won't be complaining :)

Thank you very much


 * Welcome to Miraheze! Basically, typing   into a page simply copies ("transcludes") the text of the specified template and inserts it at that point.  You've figured out how to pass parameters.  There is no secret to getting images to appear; the code of the template, after being transcluded with the parameters substituted, simply has to make sense at its new home.  If you are seeing "Template:Infobox" in red, it means that Template:Infobox doesn't exist on your wiki.  Naturally, as your examples suggest that you named it "Infobox city".  This part of the problem I suspect is the result of a simple typo.


 * MediaWiki's help page is here. Wikipedia and other wikis already have "Infobox city", as well as a generic template to build infoboxes for specific uses such as cities.  Our FAQ may help you import their templates.


 * Two general tips: Find a wiki that's already doing what you want to do, and steal the code.  Also, type what you want into the page without using a template, then transfer more and more of it into the template.  But first, solve the naming problem!   11:21 26-Mar-2020

I'm unfortunately back again with more infobox problems :/
Thank you for your message before, but I unfortunately couldn't figure out the problem. I read the wiki, FAQ and revised my Template pages, to no avail.

Firstly, I checked the page I want to infobox to appear on and it said that it was getting templates from both Template:Infobox and Template:Infobox city, even though I only had written in. The Template:Infobox page wasn't needed (or at least I hope not) so whatever I had been messing about in there, I deleted the page, clearing it. I left just Template:Infobox city, but the page where I wanted my infobox continued to say it was pulling templates from the two pages.

It seems like there are two types of templates- the template you have on the "Template:Infobox whatever" page that tells the wiki what parameter goes where, and how to build the infobox, and the template you put on the page where you want the infobox to go. I believe that my problems are with the first kind of template. SO I went to the FAQ to see if there was something about how to use these first kind of infoboxes.

Reading the FAQ I saw you had to import and export templates to get infoboxes to work. In that case, since I don't want a premade infobox template but a custom template to create a custom infobox, I went to Wikipedia and found Template:Infobox, the page I believed had the template to create templates- in specific, the first kind of templates I was talking about, the ones that go on the "Template:Infobox whatever" page. And now I found myself with even MORE problems as I couldn't get the Special:Import page to work.

I had copied the link of the Template:Infobox page from Wikipedia, and using Wikipedia's Special:Export page, I exported it as a XML file. From here, I went to my own wiki's Special:Import page, and placed the file in. Once I got it to work by some miracle, and it said it had imported some pages such as modules and stuff, things I didn't really want. But there it was- the Template page. I went there and... nothing at all. It was blank- even in the script editor. I had gone back to the page where the infobox should be to find nothing at all.

I went back to Wikipedia's Template:Infobox page to try and copy some of the syntax (I think that's what it's called?) of what looked like the template into my own Template:Infobox page. And yet, it read it as the second kind of template I was talking about, the template that draws upon the first. It called upon itself and created a template loop.

I'm going to read about Import and Export, and I would like to read about the first kind of template, but I haven't found any information that I can understand yet. It's like reading a dictionary, but all the definitions are made up of words you don't know the definitions of.

I'm also going to search other people's wiki's on Miraheze to try and find instances of infoboxes and see if I can figure out what they've done.

If you see anything I'm doing wrong, or anything I should be doing, please tell me- it'll be extremely appreciated. Thank you!


 * First of all, rules:
 * Post to talk pages by appending to the relevant section, or creating a new section.
 * Do not erase your previous posts to a talk page.
 * Especially do not erase my response. When you call up an edit box and type in new comments, that's what you're doing.
 * Sign and timestamp your post by typing  at the end of your final line.


 * I think the reason it tells you you are calling both Infobox city and Infobox is that the former calls the latter, because the former is built in terms of the latter. Most Infoboxes, if you try to view them as a page rather than transclude them, will show you instructions on their proper usage.  Typically this includes how to code images:  It may be that you have to type the complete   or even   syntax, or it may be that you just type the name of the image file.  This depends on how much of your parameter the template transcludes and how much the template adds on its own.


 * FAQ won't give you information anywhere this detailed on a specific template. Moreover, what we wrote at FAQ only described the case where you want to import complete templates from a wiki such as Wikipedia.  I use templates and would not want to deal with these complications.  Again I suggest that you get a page to appear the way you want it to, and only then think about using templates to automate the process to simplify creation of additional articles.   00:33 28-Mar-2020

Using chosen value from a field as a category for second field
Hey all, been running myself in circles trying to sort this one out, so hopefully someone has an idea or two I haven't thought of. I'm primarily using PageForms and trying to make a second field use the value of the first field as it's category, which I think needs to just be carried over as a string, though my knowledge sort of fizzles out beyond whats readily found on the internet and I might just be speaking gibberish. Anyway, this is a nonfunctional quasi-code snippet that I think represents what I'd -like- to do, but it seems not nearly as simple:

'System' field|System|mandatory|values from category=Systems|existing values only

'Planet' field|Planet|mandatory|values from category=value_chosen_in_System_field|existing values only

I can reference these fields on the following page of course, but not right on the form page itself. And I know the show on select option exists, but that requires adding all trees into the form manually, whereas I'd prefer it be dynamic as new data will be regularly added to all of the categories. I feel like I am overlooking something obvious, as I certainly can't be the first person to want to do this, and I appreciate any guidance!

Where add template?
I feel so clueless.

I just want to compile research, articles & photos to provide for leaders & others to reference as they're figuring out methods to deal with Coronavirus. Was hoping to do in basic format like this:

Main Title

Section Title Citation Summary of research  (& maybe photo in there somewhere)  ~Just text. No additional title needed Explanation of significance -Some little way to signify transition to new topic, by indent, italic or ??

with ability to add more sections.

Where do I make a template like this & will it automatically be inserted whenever I make a new page? I'm sorry to ask so many questions--I'm trying to learn but also get doing research faster. If you can help me figure out, thanks a TRILLION!!


 * I'm catching on some about formatting, but don't know where to make a template file that will appear on all pages.
 * I saw a reference to "local settings" (I think for css) but I am not able to find. Please help?

Update: I better not keep try to use another format to try to keep records in right now. This has turned out to be too high of a learning curve for me, lol!


 * You might look at my recommendations to someone else in Sec. 5 above.


 * The coding that might help you is a Wikitable:


 * Get the code to work first. Then transfer it to a template to mass-produce it!   22:34 11-Apr-2020

Lost ability to post comments and create pages on Terrible TV Shows Wiki
I was a autoconfirmed user on the wiki but for some reason, I lost the rights. I talked to an admin and he made me as a confirmed user but the problem still hasn't been resolved. How can I become a autoconfirmed user again? I have no issues on Crappy Games Wiki or Awful Movies Wiki where I am a autoconfirmed user. On Rotten Websites Wiki, I'm not an autoconfirmed user but I can still make edits and post comments.

'''Can someone solve my problem? Why are you answering the questions posted after me without answering mine?'''

I can't log in
User:OishiLover75: I'm having trouble logging in. Technical problems are not restored. What should I do? Why don't the instructions above work for me.

Only the Edit Source option is available when trying to update my sandbox plus previous issue still not solved.
I want to update my sandbox on Awful Movies Wiki but it's only letting me edit the source only and not edit the page itself. That's very inconvenient for me because it's much faster to edit as the page should be displayed unless I'm uploading videos.

And I still haven't gotten a reply with the previous issue that I posted last week that I'm having on Terrible TV Shows Wiki. Can someone please let me know what's going on and why Miraheze is becoming worse to use with each passing day?

This is getting ridiculous. Once again, the users who posted after me are getting help from the staff but I get ignored. Can you at least post something so I know what the reason is?

Difficulties to use math extension
I have tried to active the math extension on my wiki but it does not seem to work. Latex formula on the main page seem to work properly, see for instance this page. But the same content cannot display correctly on my page here. Many thanks in advance.

Gamebm (talk) 03:46, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * It appears to be working correctly on both pages for me. It may have been that the extension needed a little bit of time before it started completely working on your Wiki. Elaeagnifolia (talk) 06:24, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

How to use templates, infoboxes, etc?
Hello, I am fairly new to Wiki editing beyond simple formatting and edits on the English Wikipedia, and have no experience with any sort of code or the like. I want to use Infoboxes on my wiki, but can't seem to find a coherent tutorial that describes how to do so. The wording of the only tutorial I found suggested that a package of standard MediaWiki templates should be installed on all Miraheze wikis by default, however, I can't seem to find any of those, or figure out how to use them. Any help would be appreciated! Greyboxing (talk) 05:26, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * The FAQ has a section regarding infoboxes that you can look over and see if it helps. Alternatively, I've also seen this infobox template recommended as it's a simplified version designed to work across Wikis with less nested dependencies and Lua modules imported to work. Since you mentioned you're fairly new to Wiki editing, I'd also recommend checking out the MediaWiki Help pages, and specifically since you're getting involved with infobox templates, then the page regarding templates might also be useful. Elaeagnifolia (talk) 06:16, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much! I'll look into all of these. Greyboxing (talk) 07:27, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Issues with popups and MediaViewer
A few days ago I noticed some issues occurring on my wiki, namely Popups, MediaViewer and Beta features in my preferences. For some reason my popups have just stopped worked even though they are turned on in the 'Styling' tab of 'Manage this wiki's additional settings.' The MediaViewer says 'Sorry, the file cannot be displayed. There seems to be a technical issue' etc. etc. And the Beta features tab in my preferences is empty. Can anyone shed some light as to why this may have happened? I use the popups extensively and so not having them any more is a little frustrating and my MediaWiever is just hit and miss. I am wondering if it has anything to do with not being able to display really large images (some are 2000+ x 4000+) in size. 13:15, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * There is definitely something odd going on. Although popups (Page Previews) is installed and checked in ManageWiki it does not show up as an option to enable/disable in the Appearance tab in Preferences. I have double-checked and it has also done the same on my other wiki too. MediaViewer is having a hissy fit and most of my image don't work in it any more. Is there a bug somewhere or have some technically minded staff made some changes somewhere that are affecting certain extensions? 23:47, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Skin set in Special:ManageWiki is only showing up to me and not visitors of the wiki
In my Wiki "Eld's Meta Universe Wiki", I changed the default skin in the Specials:ManageWiki page's styling tab. This updates the look of the wiki but only for me, visitors of the wiki get the default skin. This has been tested in Firefox, Chrome and Vivaldi browsers. The skin also doesn't show for me if I'm logged off. I have checked the skin in personal preferences and it's set to the same as the skin in Specials:ManageWiki without ability to change any setting there.

My wiki is disorganized
NOTICE '''THIS REQUEST HAS BEEN CANCELED. I ACTUALLY FOUND A NEW WAY TO DEAL WITH IT. THANKS! DONT DELETE ANY NAMESPACES THOUGH'''

This is going to be quite a long explanation. Hope you have a basic understanding of how NationStates works. So basically, in NationStates, I used to RP my own nation, the Crazybloxian Empire.

The wiki articles I wrote about it were very disorganized as I didn’t know how to do the categories right, I realized I had been writing articles in the wrong format, I realized I had been writing pages that weren’t encyclopedia style in mainspace, ones that should have been in other namespaces, and I also wrote this alone.

If you do your research, NationStates is divided into many groups called "regions". I moved to another region called the Commonwealth of Liberty, and now I intend to use my wiki to publish so-called "factbooks", but the old wiki is very disorganized, and using Special:Nuke hasn’t worked out for me, since most of the pages are a year old. I have done too much work importing the templates, and it’s a headache.

Additionally NationStates allows you to publish something called "dispatches" but they are very rudimentary and on every dispatch I made, I made sort of like a menu/type thing with links to go between dispatches, but they do not implement, so changing "menus" for HUNDREDS of "dispatches" can be very labor-intensive.

However on this MediaWiki software I can just make the "menu" a template and whenever I need to add a new link, just change the template.

Could I request mass deletion of ALL articles? Do not delete anything in the File, Storefront namespace, but DO delete everything in all other namespaces that I didn’t exempt. DO completely delete the Law, Executive Order and News namespaces (including talk namespaces), as they are clearly not needed.

The reason I am unable to do this myself is due to the fact that IRL I have time constraints, it’s not like I can spend 10 hours trying to delete stuff and organize my wiki. Thank you. Please respond to me, but do not do anything to my wiki yet until I have confirmed and gave you the greenlight to do so.

Thank you soo much. Also you should read the Wikipedia article about NationStates to actually get an understanding of the site. Bye!

Have a good day, wash your hands,

Sincerely, •• Fair0002 • Bureaucrat and Administrator of Crazybloxian Empire Wiki 03:53, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

Help with regex
Hi, I need to change the old markup used for images in my wiki because it's very outdated and not mobile-friendly. There's a ton of pages to edit and of course I need to automate it, too bad the only tool available is the MassEditRegex extension and I just can't wrap my head around the regex syntax; I used it multiple times for simple edits, but that's it.

Melanie Martinez Wikia
Since the anonymous cannot request wikis directly at the Request vault they must be done over here instead. For eight (or was it seven?) years singer Melanie Martinez’s wiki has been hosted by Fandom. That’s right eight or seven years. Here’s a page pulled from the wiki after the 2016 revamp, for example: 1.

Almost every page there at the bottom has a Comment Rule Box. If the site has gotten transferred to this hosting tree said rules will be above at the open box. If possible I think the wiki has reached its time to be moved from Fandom.

Unlike most of the 3K+ wikis a chock full are currently dormant from this hosting service that one will have the gates open to IP contributing and commenting. The rule box from the old wiki will be still placed above but simplified in its new home.

Good night,

Upload own media wiki using FTP?
Hi

I've set up my own wiki using media wiki on a local host server and was looking to transfer as is to the Miraheze domain as a sub-domain for the time being whilst I free up my domain (unfortunately currently have website hosting with go daddy and they are really not very user friendly when it comes to hosting wikis, and also it is not for profit so paying for something that isn't meeting my needs is not my idea of a good use of money).

Can I just upload it with an FTP account on file zilla as is? I have a template page, an admin account with an associated email account and most importantly, I have MP3 uploads enabled as an extension and on my local settings file (crucial for my project). I also want to enable use of tables and I understand visual editor can make that easier which is great. If not, what can I do to help the process along?

Also, if I want to transfer my wiki from a subdomain to my custom domain once I can transfer my registration to a provider which is less of a pain in the ass do I just put in a request for a transfer or do I have to start it all up again?
