I was wondering if anyone could give me ideas on this question.
What url/name/address do I use to add a Balcklist entry in Mediawiki?
Background: I have a Mediawiki site and one of the extensions that I have installed is called "Popups" which displays a preview of a page when you hover over a link. I want to disable the popups for a few specific pages and heard one possible way was to add those links as "BLACKLISTED" in the index.js file of the extension folder. The section in the file where the "BLACKLISTED_LINKS" go is below.
For example my page url is "https://help.site.com/index.php/mypage" - how would I code that in the list below?
Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks - GJ231
BLACKLISTED_LINKS = [
'.extiw',
'.image',
'.new',
'.internal',
'.external',
'.oo-ui-buttonedElement-button',
'.cancelLink a'
];
I suggest that you set the configuration variable $wgPopupsPageDisabled in LocalSettings.php as described at the extension page. Note the issues with caching after changing that variable.

Anything under the site's DesktopModules folder does not look like it loaded.
How can I get those items like HTML, Journal, SocialGroups, etc to load?
My issue is that on a new page, I can't add an HTML module - that module, and all others from that directory are not one of the available items to add to a page.
Try going to the Extensions page, edit one of the missing modules, and check to see that it has been assigned to the portal in questions.
I'm using HexoJS to create a blog. I was able to generate the static files using hexo generate. Even though there are css files and JS files generated, they are not properly linked to the index.html.
So, I have to open each html page and correct each page links given in href and src attributes one by one. I believe that this is not very practical. Can anyone help ?
The localhost is used for preview the website. When we publish our blog, it should be on a server, then the path will be interpreted correctly, we don't need to change any thing. What we saw on http://localhost:4000 will be same when you published your website.
So, we don't have to worry about the broken paths in the public folder.
Is there a possibility in MediaWiki to create an external link to a
windows network folder like
\\server\folder1 ????
It does not work using syntax of external or internal links ;-(
Any help is appreciated.
You can use $wgUrlProtocols (in LocalSettings.php) do define what url protocols MediaWiki should recognize. Adding file, like this: $wgUrlProtocols[] = 'file://'; You should then be able to link to your network folder, e.g. [file://///server/folder Click here to go to folder] .
For further discussion about how to create that url, and what browsers will actually let you follow it, see What are the ways to make an html link open a folder
This setting will also make your network folder show up on Special:LinkSearch.
$wgUrlProtocols is the array.
To add file:// to $wgUrlProtocols in LocalSettings.php:
array_push($wgUrlProtocols, "file://");
When I reference a .pdf in my webpage, the file doesn't open when I click on the link. I referenced the .pdf with the full path and the file is in the www folder.
When I hover over the link online, I can see that the link is to my .pdf on file but it doesn't open.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks (HTML newbie)
Edit 1 - reference:
Filename
Edit 2:
I tried the local links extension and it still isn't opening. I also tried <a href="http://www.example.com/myfile.pdf"> and I get a 403 Forbidden error.
Modern browsers block links to file:// URLs from pages that aren't themselves on a file:// URL, and in the same directory tree.
This is a security feature. There are workarounds that you can install locally so it works on one specific computer. See this Mozillazine article.
Sorry - I don't have the rep to comment. But it looks like your ref structure could be wrong.
Try something like:
<a href="http://www.example.com/myfile.pdf">
UPDATE: Hmmm?
Have you tried just:
<a href="myfile.pdf">
Also, I found this which (while not directly relevant) has some discussions and links that may assist: How to set height on PDF file when linked to from HTML?
^^ Ignore that - it really is more related to how the pdf opens.
FURTHER:
I am assuming the pdf file name has no spaces in it. I also assume you have a local pdf viewer.
So I had a look at a random website which had a pdf link as an example. When clicked, it opened the pdf in a new tab. I am on chrome.
You may be able to use that to figure out what is wrong.
Here is the page: http://www.staff.uwa.edu.au/procedures/communications/media/uwanews
Looking at the pdf for the first listed file, this was their link:
Issue-10-December-2014 [PDF File, 2.0 MB]
It looks like path should be enough, but you might want to add the target="_blank" to open in a new tab.
Maybe also see this, which shows that users set how a pdf is opened - perhaps the settings on your end need to be set up: How to open link to pdf file in new tab using html
Anyway, I wish you the best. Post your answer when figure it all out.
When we launch a website, we usually see webpage name (menu.php or admin.aspx) but I would like to hide that name and show only virtual path or just website name. I don't want it for the first page because I did that with default.aspx but I want to implement it for the whole website.
Showing www.abcd.com/faq/ instead of www.abcd.com/faq/faq.html
Note: My code is not MVC code and server is Apache.
Use .htaccess to rewrite the URL. Millions of tutorials are out there for that ;)
What you are asking is achieved using (for xampp, wamp, lamp or any other apache powered webserver setup) htaccess rewriterules. The rules take the URL and break it into parts that can be modified or used as variables to feed other pages - whilst still keeping the URL you typed. Neat huh!
Showing www.abcd.com/faq/ instead of www.abcd.com/faq/faq.html
call the file placed into the folder faq simply index.html (not faq.html) and then www.abcd.com/faq/
will display the page without the filename. (Make sure, you have defined index.html as a valid Directory index.)
There are more options with using mod_rewrite etc - but since you seem to use a prety static directory based navigation layout, that would be the easiest way.
