[SchmitzIT] XenForo MediaWiki Bridge 2.0

No permission to download
Overview Reviews (5) History Discussion
OK @SchmitzIT and @Digital Doctor

Here is my config.php:
/*
* Path to XenForo installation. You can use both absolute or relative path
define('MEDIAWIKI_PATH_TO_XENFORO', './forums');
Click to expand...

As stated my Mediawiki installation is in the root.
Yet I see no login link? I did encounter the compression issues but managed to fix them.

Xenforo + Mediawiki + Wordpress = Best of breed x 3.

Before you get too into Mediawiki ... check out Vaultwiki.
It's as Powerful as Mediawiki but integrated into the forums.

I think Vaultwiki is better than Mediawiki. My only criticism of Vaultwiki is that it is "almost as hard" to use as Mediawiki is.

Mediawiki is powerful, but the steep learning curve prevent community-generated documents from being a reality.

I actually purchased VaultWiki but will stick to MediaWiki (prefered MediaWiki and an import would be difficult of existing articles). XenForo is certainly the best forum software currently available.

Many thanks ;)
 
Update: I can now sign in to the forum and then I'll be signed in to the wiki. However, I see no log in/log out links?

I've also had to disable output compression.

Many thanks for all the help :D

Note: Is it possible to redirect users back to the wiki?
 
I just signed up on your forum. When heading to the wiki, I can see the login functionality there. Can you show me the edit you made to the LocalSettings.php?

Thanks.

This is generally the issue:

Plugin enabled (compression problems + no login/logout link)

Existing users? Will they have to be imported?

Can users be redirected back to the wiki after being logged in?

Also, is there are way to integrate forum updates with MediaWiki's Echo? Just a thought.

Many thanks all.

The localsettings look alright.

Can you clarify what you mean with compression problems?

As for the bridge, can you PM me FTP Credentials and temporarily enable me admin access on the forums? I'd like to be able to verify all files are in the correct order, and turn on and off the add-ons to test what's going on.

Thanks.

Just as what other posters have stated. In LocalSettings output compression must be disabled or my wiki won't load.

I'll PM you FTP details.
 
No problem. Sorry, I've just been swamped with work, so I haven't had time to look deeper into your issue

This is a Server Error given to me inside of Xenforo, and betterverse.net/w/ corresponds to my MediaWiki installation - so I figure this is somewhere inside of MediaWiki bridge.

This started happening after updating from 1.1.4 to 1.2.1 ... Any ideas?
 
We tried upgrading to the latest version of MediaWiki yesterday, and the bridge definitely does not work with that.

I'll try and see if @xfrocks can come up with a fix.

It did work for me?

Do you know which files have to be edited to include new Login/out links which are directed to the Forum.

Anyway, I am switching to VaultWiki after long consideration. It would mean an import would be required but the site would look the same (wiki/forums) and it would mean users have a much better experience (heavy integration).

XFRocks also confirmed to me via an Email that he also got it working. What error are you encountering?
 
Hi Schmitz,

Could you provide an example of this? I'm planning to install a wiki but I would like to see how it's integrated with your addon

Thank you
