I would need some help please.
I have a page in a mediawiki website which lists all the links of a category using its prefix (ex: category AlertDialog).
{{Special:PrefixIndex/AlertDialog}}
This is exactly what I need, the problem is I don't see the underscores in the returned links.
I am trying to nest multiple wikimedia functions to have the desire result. I have tried a couple of things with no luck:
{{#ask: [[AlertDialog:+]] }}
{{localurl:{{Special:PrefixIndex/AlertDialog}}}}
{{DISPLAYTITLE:{{Special:PrefixIndex/AlertDialog}}}}
{{PAGENAMEE:{{Special:PrefixIndex/AlertDialog}}}}
Any (easy) ways I can see those underscores? (I don't have admin access, I try to do it using mediawiki functions/API)
Thank you in advance for your help.

I want to extract the pages mentioned in the infobox and templates of pages.
E.g. From this page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA
I want to extract all of the links in the infobox, like: "Genetics", "Introduction to Genetics" etc.
I want to do it, by using the sql dumps, possibly avoiding to parse the xml of whole pages, and I don't want to do it with APIs.
I could not find a way.
While Pagelinks does include also the links of infoboxes, I cannot find a way to exclude them.
I thought Templatelinks may have that info, but it is not: I could not find the pageids of the corresponding links in infoboxes.
Where is this information stored?
Or which kind of tables should I look at?
I consulted previous questions:
where can I find the infobox templates used in wiki?
and Mediawiki reference:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Templatelinks_table#Schema_summary
but could not find a solution.
That is a sidebar rather than an infobox: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Genetics_sidebar
I don't think there's a way of doing it other than parsing the content of the template to extract the links or using the API: e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=links&titles=Template:Genetics%20sidebar&pllimit=100&plnamespace=0
Something like this should also work but it's not returning any results for me:
SELECT * from pagelinks
where pl_title = 'Genetics_sidebar'
and pl_namespace = 0
and pl_from_namespace = 10

I was thinking about creating different templates for products (not with different features but with different html organization and css) because the standard "pic on the left and data on the right" is not enough for a well-made user-centered ecommerce.
I tried the custom post types but they are blog post and can't access the product data.
in my custom product.conf i added my custom post data
"acceptTypes" : ["store_item", "custom-product-item"]
but obv. it won't work.
maybe if I could access the store_item could be easier to do this, but i can't find on the repo.
anyone has some suggestion?
Unfortunately, although it used to be possible to create custom post type products, that stopped being possible within the last year or so.
If you want to create your own template for products, you need to override the products.list and/or products.item files with your own. By placing them within your /collections folder, it will override the system default ones.
That means you have to write it entirely from scratch. Here are a couple resources that may help (despite being outdated):
http://www.bcarroll.us/developer-platform-tutorials/2014/10/20/products-pages
https://answers.squarespace.com/questions/57343/productsitem-for-adirondack-template.html
Having overridden products.item, if you want to have different templates for different products, you can do something like:
{.equal? item.urlId "myurlid1"}
{#|apply products1.block}
{.or equal? item.urlId "myurlid2"}
{#|apply products2.block}
{.or}
etc.
i was just wondering (since i didn't find anything quick on Google) if its possible (and how do i achieve that) to search directly in an html file, and ignore the tags or not as i please?
explaining a bit further. we wrote a crawler and obviously the crawler gives back the HTML of the page. But if i feel like searching the content of the crawler, do i need 2 separate fields one with html and one without or i can just have one field with html and search ignoring the html tags or not.
thanks in advance.
If i correctly understand you, all you need is to set search indexes without html tags?
We solved that problem this way:
class PostIndex(indexes.SearchIndex, indexes.Indexable):
text = indexes.CharField(model_attr='text', use_template=True, document=True)
and in template (search/indexes/blogs/post_test.html) we just used striptags filter
{{ object.content|striptags }}
After that you need to build_schema and rebuild_index. Now it search correctly without tags.
I'm using Shopp on a Worpress site, and would like to pass two slugs in one shortcode instead of two shortcodes.
Right now, this is how it's displayed:
[catalog-collection slug="holiday-gift-cards"]
[catalog-collection slug="holiday-platters"]
Is there a way to get both of those into one shortcode? I'd like to display them that way so they come in after one another instead of breaking into a different row on top of each other.
I can't find any syntax online of how to do it, so if anyone knows how, any help is appreciated! Thanks.
Since the comment turned out to be an answer, I'll repost here for future reference in case others might have the same question:
If you're going to use Shortcodes for this, the Shopp Shortcode Documentation has a slug called 'tag'. If you apply a tag name of 'holiday' to all of the products you want to combine, you can have a shortcode of just [catalog-collection slug="tag" tag="holiday"]
When I make api query sometimes I have list with few pages. For example
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ask gives a lot of pages, I need website "Ask.com, a web search engine, formerly Ask Jeeves"
can I make query only for some category ("websites")?
How I can check category for each page in response?
Thanks
There is no trivial way to do what you're asking. You could do something like this:
Get the list of pages the disambiguation page list. You could do this by listing the links on that page (action=query&prop=links).
Get the categories of all the pages from the previous step and use that to decide which one is the one you're looking for. This is not that simple, because Ask.com is not directly in Category:Websites, it's in one of its subcategories.
I have list with few pages, for example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ask
The problem is that you're not getting a list of pages, you just are getting an ordinary page which is in the disambiguation pages category. To get the list, you need to get the links in that page.
can I make query only for some category ("websites")?
No, mediawiki does not support that.
How I can check category for each page in response?
Use the links property as a title list generator and get the categories of each page in the response. In your case, that would be http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=Ask&generator=links&prop=categories (don't forget to continue the query).
If you are OK with "full-text search" for "ask",
you can do that like this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=json&action=query&generator=search&gsrsearch=ask%20incategory:%22Online%20companies%22&prop=info
As you can see, "search" text is [ask incategory:"Online companies"]
