I have tried but I can't find the answer anywhere, so here goes.
In the pdfs I generate for my read-the-docs website the header seems to have a missing field. On the top-right of the header I see:
, Release foobar
I would like to either:
add some text before the comma
remove the comma itself
I understand that the header is generated in the conf.py file and the fix needs to go there:
# -- Project information -----------------------------------------------------
project = 'Documentation'
copyright = '2021, Companyname'
author = 'Me'
release = 'foobar'
What variable can I add here? Any help welcome.
Jim.

I would like to update the Main_Page of our wiki from a script run by cron.
Apart from the page content itself, in pagecontent.old_text, what else do I need to update?
If I only update the "old_text" field, the new content is not displayed. I get the previous content, presumably from a cache somewhere. In LocalSettings.php I have $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_NONE;. So I guess that I need to also update something else in the Mediawiki database?
(In case it matters, this is with Mediawiki 1.31.10 on Debian 10 with Apache and PostgreSQL)
Use maintenance/edit.php, the edit API, Pywikibot etc. Trying to do changes via direct DB manipulation is a rather bad idea.
Updating the timestamp in page.page_touched works to have the wiki show the new content.
This example is using a PostgreSQL database, so it might need some adjustments if used with the more common MySQL DB.
To update the text of a page identified by it's name, it is necessary to join the page, revision and pagecontent tables. This example updates a page named "Drafts":
UPDATE pagecontent
SET old_text = 'New page content'
FROM page, revision
WHERE page.page_title='Drafts'
AND pagecontent.old_id=revision.rev_text_id
AND page.page_latest=revision.rev_id;
And to update the page timestamp so that the wiki shows the new content:
UPDATE "page"
SET page_touched = now()
WHERE page_namespace = '0'
AND page_title = 'Drafts';
An alternative which avoids tinkering with the database directly, is to use an extension like External Data. There are examples here to embed a text file in a page, and here to embed the output of a database query.
I am using python-docx to programmatically insert data into a new document. When opening the new file, I get the following error message.
Word found unreadable content in document_name. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes.
Here is the process that my code is going through to get to this point:
Copy a docx file that we will call our findings templates to a
working folder
Copy another docx file that is our report document to the same working folder
Locate a table in our findings document that we want to include in the report
Fill in some data in the table, and put the now completed table into the report document.
Save the report document as a new file, called generated.docx
What I have figured out so far:
If I don't fill in any information in the table, and just copy it
from the findings templates into the report, I still get the above
error message.
If I insert other data into the report without the
table from the findings templates the document is all good with no
errors.
The source files have no errors, at least Word doesn't complain when opening either the findings document or the report document.
If I let Word correct the errors, all hyperlinks in the document are broken, the text for the link is there along with the link style, but the target is missing, and when looking at the document after hitting alt+F9, you can see { HYPERLINK } indicating the missing target as well.
After quite a bit of googling and finding some similar answers that haven't resolved the issue, I feel like this might be relevant. The tables in the findings document contain a large number of merged cells. It is only one table, not nested tables as I initially thought they were.
Heading is 2 rows deep with 4 merged cells on the left for the finding title and then on the right are two columns with headings and relevant data below. Then the body of the table is a mixture of merged cells per row. Some rows will have all cells merged, others with have 2 cells merged out of 3.
Here is the code I am using to snag the table from the findings document:
for table in findings_templates.tables:
row = table.rows[0]
for cell in row.cells:
if title.lower() in cell.text.lower():
severity = get_severity_from_template(table)
for item in severity_array:
if severity in item[1]:
anchor = item[0]
# snip
# Insert some data into table here
# snip
addTableAfterParagraph(report_document, table, title)
return True
Since the errors occur with our without modification, ill leave out the modification code. Here is the code that inserts the table into the template document:
def addTableAfterParagraph(report_document, table, title):
for para in report_document.paragraphs:
if para.text == title:
p = para._p
p.addnext(table._tbl)
Additionally, I added some print lines for table._tbl.xml and I don't see much of a difference between the source table and the one inserted into the document except for the first line has a few differing xmlns tags.
I'd love some troubleshooting tips, or any suggestions. Let me know if any more information is needed. Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: It's the hyperlinks in the source table that are causing the issue. I'm marking this solved for now and may open another more specific question if I can't figure it out.
I ended up reading data from the source document tables, then creating my own tables programmatically, and inserting that data back in along with performing any transforms, such as creating hyperlinks, styles, etc.
It was painful, but ultimately solved the issue and provides flexibility in the future.
I am new to typo3, and I need help concerning the News extension and the $TCA configuration.
I have made an extension called "Activité" which extends from News. This went pretty well. I created some custom fields and I was able to make my extension "selectable" from the select field already available in the "General" tab.
All I want to do is to hide the default selectable fields already there (in this case, I want to hide "Internal page" and "External page".
It seems so simple, but I want to do this the right way.
You did not write what news extension you use. For old one tt_news you disable by
TCEFORM.tt_news.type.removeItems = 1,2
for new one "news" by
TCEFORM.tx_news_domain_model_news.type.removeItems = 1,2
General syntax is:
TCEFORM.[table_name].[field_name].[action]
For example you can completyl disable not used fields with
TCEFORM.[table_name].[field_name].disabled = 1
You can also set default values to fields with syntax
TCAdefaults.[table_name].[field_name] = value
You should add this typoscript in page propertes. Tab "Resources", field TypoScript Configuration / Page TSConfig.
I downloaded this project:
http://vikku.info/programming/google-maps-v3/draggable-directions/saving-draggable-directions-saving-waypoints-google-directions-google-maps-v3.htm
To se how to save waypoints, I opened, the html, and tryied to save the waypoint, but it don't work, I dont know if i need to do something in SQL or not, I just tryied to make it works, please help me if you had sucess to make it works.
You have to:
create a DB with the name mapdir
create a table with the name mapdir inside this DB, the table should have only 1 field named value with the type text (there is a file mapdir.sql inside the ZIP-file, you may use it to create the table)
inside process.php you must edit line#5 and set the correct values for mysql_connect(servername,username,password)
You also should change process.php,Line#3 to
#$data = $_REQUEST['mapdata'];
....otherwise you later will not be able to load the waypoints when error_reporting is on.
But however, I wouldn't suggest to use this project like it is, there isn't any protection against SQL-injection.
I want to know if there is a way to blank all user_talk pages enmass. Not delete them, just blank them. I don't know how to write bots, so I'm really asking if there is an extension or pre written bot for this. Thank you
You could write a simple SQL to do this, just look into the page table, for my installation the namespace value for User talk: is 3, so I could just delete all pages with namespace=3.
Deleting the row from the database, will leave the page as blank (not created)
I suggest using AWB. You can easy have it build a list based on a names space and then use a simple ReGeX replace such as: Search: (.*)* Replace with: (empty space).
