Research Computing Configuration (view source)
Revision as of 13:31, 17 September 2020
, 13:31, 17 September 2020→Setting up for advanced template(s) import
Then I copied over Module:Documentation/styles.css from mediawiki.org, commenting out the background image in line 168. And everything seems to work fine...
I got the following templates from mediawiki (via [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Export mediawiki's Special:Export] to get dependencies):
*Template:Colored box
*Template:Navbox
*Template:Help box
*Template:Side box
*Template:Note
Note that this overwrote Template:Tl, Template:TNT, and others that I resolved issues with previously.
Now a new set of issues has emerged. These include JsonConfig problems (again), and template loops (which I think are coming from Module:Template translation), and missing dependencies (e.g, Template:Mbox and Module:Color contrast). Moreover, most of the templates render the if and other conditional logic statements, rather then executing them.
In mediawiki/installs
wget https://extdist.wmflabs.org/dist/extensions/ParserFunctions-REL1_34-4de6f30.tar.gz
tar -xzf ParserFunctions-REL1_34-4de6f30.tar.gz -C /var/lib/mediawiki/extensions
Add to LocalSettings.php
wfLoadExtension( 'ParserFunctions' );
$wgPFEnableStringFunctions = true;
To do the front page, I copied the source of [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Main_page&action=edit Template:Main page] from mediawiki to a page (called Test to start), and created [Template:Main page/styles.css] using [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Main_page/styles.css&action=edit mediawiki's code]. Then I rejigged the contents of the page! Old instructions[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:R1j08xhjgrtkpj6q] suggest using [[Special:ExpandTemplate]] on mediawiki's wiki, with the input text <nowiki>{{:MediaWiki}}</nowiki>. But this isn't necessary as the template doesn't need expanding in its current (at the time of writing) incarnation. Naturally, the page works well on MobileFrontend.
