To enable image upload you need to adjust your ''LocalSettings.php'':
 +
 
 +
 
 +
<syntaxhighlight lang="php">
 +
## To enable image uploads, make sure the 'images' directory
 +
## is writable, then set this to true:
 +
$wgEnableUploads = true;
 +
$wgUseImageMagick = false;
 +
$wgImageMagickConvertCommand = "/usr/bin/convert";
 +
#$wgImageMagickTempDir="{$wgUploadDirectory}/temp";
 +
 
 +
 
 +
## If you want to use image uploads under safe mode,
 +
## create the directories images/archive, images/thumb and
 +
## images/temp, and make them all writable. Then uncomment
 +
## this, if it's not already uncommented:
 +
#$wgHashedUploadDirectory = false;
 +
#$wgTmpDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/temp";
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
 
 +
You just have to:
 +
* '''Enable uploads'''
 +
* '''Not''' use ImageMagick
 +
 
 +

On previous version of MediaWiki I was able to use ''image magick''. However it seems it doesn't work anymore on OVH shared hosting... :( Instead I now rely on PHP scripts.

Installation

Global CSS

Edit page: MediaWiki:Common.css

See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ


Clear cache

Sometimes you need to clear the cache to see the changes ; especially the UI changes (favicon, CSS, logo, ...)

Use the &action=purge command.


ex: http://www.daxiongmao.eu/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=purge



Special content

Favicon

Adjust your localSettings.php

## FAVICON in PNG 
$wgFavicon = "$wgScriptPath/favicon.ico";


Sidebar

Just edit MediaWiki:Sidebar

Source: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual_talk:Interface/Sidebar


Ex: http://www.daxiongmao.eu/wiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar



Copyright note

To adjust the text edit MediaWiki:Copyright


To configure the copyrights, adjust your LocalSettings.php

Source: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgRightsText

$wgRightsPage = ""; # Set to the title of a wiki page that describes your license/copyright
$wgRightsUrl = "http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/";
$wgRightsText = "Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike";
$wgRightsIcon = "$wgScript/wiki/skins/common/images/creative_commons.png";



Image

Image upload configuration

To enable image upload you need to adjust your LocalSettings.php:


## To enable image uploads, make sure the 'images' directory
## is writable, then set this to true:
$wgEnableUploads = true;
$wgUseImageMagick = false;
$wgImageMagickConvertCommand = "/usr/bin/convert";
#$wgImageMagickTempDir="{$wgUploadDirectory}/temp";


## If you want to use image uploads under safe mode,
## create the directories images/archive, images/thumb and
## images/temp, and make them all writable. Then uncomment
## this, if it's not already uncommented:
#$wgHashedUploadDirectory = false;
#$wgTmpDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/temp";


You just have to:

  • Enable uploads
  • Not use ImageMagick


On previous version of MediaWiki I was able to use image magick. However it seems it doesn't work anymore on OVH shared hosting... :( Instead I now rely on PHP scripts.


Insert images

Great tutorial: How to insert images into a wiki article ? See: http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/mediawiki/adding-content-mediawiki/insert-images-wiki
