Re: [Wp-mirror-list] Issue getting the default configuration of wp-mirror 0.6 to work

[wp mirror]

Dear Guy,

Thank you for letting me know about the issues with search and display.

1) Search

Regarding the `Violin' example, I am not sure why mediawiki fails to
find and display the definition. The records for `Violin' are indeed
there in simplewiktionary, as you may  confirm with the following SQL
command.

(shell)$ mysql --host=localhost --user=root --password
Enter password:
...
mysql> select * from
simplewiktionary.page,simplewiktionary.revision,simplewiktionary.text
where old_id=rev_id and rev_page=page_id and page_title like
'violin'\G

2) Infobox

Debian packages mediawiki 1.19.  However, to display an infobox, we
would need the mediawiki extention `scribunto' which requires
mediawiki 1.20+.  This is mentioned at the bottom of
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox>.  So we are waiting
for debian to catch up.

But rest assured that the template for the infobox is indeed in the
simplewiki database.  You can see this with the following command

mysql> select * from
simplewiki.page,simplewiki.revision,simplewiki.text where
old_id=rev_id and rev_page=page_id and page_title like
'George_W._Bush'\G

3) Templates and references

Currently many templates and references do not display.  I am not in
every case sure why.  Again I think we are waiting for debian to catch
up with mediawiki.

Sincerely Yours,
Kent
