Forum thread: iframe is NOT transparent in IE 6, cannot pass allowTransparency attribute ]]> http://www.wikidot.org/forum/t-205982#post-696110 Sounds Great... http://www.wikidot.org/forum/t-205982/some-news#post-696110 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 11:18:39 +0000 Zasurus 428248 I have over the past few weeks created my first wiki on wikidot.com (I had used wowwiki.com but never edited/updated a wiki) so have gotten use to how it works and what I can and can't do with it. Recently it occurred to me that if we used a wiki for our documentation for code changes (in our in-house system) this would be MUCH more versatile than loads of word documents…
So when I started digging to find a free wiki we could install in the security of our own system and found you have already opened the source to wikidot.com and are about(ish) to open it again from the current branch and everything I have come to understand on wikidot.com I was so please. There will be no relearning the changes and anything I learn from my wiki on wikidot.com could be applied straight to using our local copy and all of our documentation.
Thanks for all the hard work and keep it up! I can’t wait until you manager to release the new version!

Regards,

Zas

Forum thread: Some News ]]> http://www.wikidot.org/forum/t-214770#post-686078 Robots="noindex" on not found pages http://www.wikidot.org/forum/t-214770/robots-noindex-on-not-found-pages#post-686078 Thu, 28 Jan 2010 12:38:21 +0000 Leandro Arndt 431350 I've suggested this on Wikidot.com forum (http://community.wikidot.com/forum/t-214639/seo:canonical-page-and-noindex-on-lacking-pages):

Wikidot already supports some tags needed for SEO (Search Engine Optimization), but it lacks 2 features that are a "must" for SEO.

(…)

Robots tag = "noindex"

Secondly, Wikidot could use the code bellow on non-existing pages, so that the search engines won't index pages with that default text:

> + The page does not (yet) exist.
>
> The page blablabla you want to access does not exist.
>
> * create page

This is not only duplicated content, but also hides our real contents behind these "keywords": "page", "exist", "create"… This is specially true on newly created wikis, not fully populated yet.

The code needed on these pages is:

[[code type="HTML"]]
<head>
…
<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />
…
</head>
[[/code]]

The same could be done to admin:manage (anyone wants it to appear on Google?).

Doing a quick search on Wikidot.org source files, I think I've found a way of implementing it. Maybe the solution for the robots=noindex on not found pages might be like the following (code starts on line 50 of http://github.com/gabrys/wikidot/blob/master/templates/layouts/WikiLayout.tpl):

 <? php // [...] Line 50: <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/> <meta http-equiv="content-language" content="{$site->getLanguage()}"/> // *************** NEW CODE START *************** {if $pageNotExists} <meta name="robots" content="noindex" /> {/if} // **************** NEW CODE END **************** <script type="text/javascript" src="/common--javascript/WIKIDOT.js"></script> // and so on... ?>

In my opinion it seems to be an easy solution for that problem of duplicated content and unwanted search keywords.

To access the database via webmin you have to login with the username and password it is run by.
In my case i had to login with:

user: root
pass: myrootpassword

I hope this helps someone - it did help me.
So i was neither a postgres-database problem nor a wikidot one.
It seems so simple but it took me some time to see "the big picture" ;)

I also did not write down the database password which i need to reset.
After to many attempts to login i get locked out:

*Error - Access denied for 192.168.178.101*

So i need to reset to password for the Database. How to?

Thanks again in advance!

edit: little postgres howto use

change to postgresuser

 su postgres

invoke "postgres command line":

 psql

list databases

 \l

quit psql command line

 \q

Still need to figure out how to reset the password…

php -v still says cli.

This should always say cli, because this is the binary you call from commandline (cli). This however should say cgi-fcgi:

php-cgi -v
php5-cgi -v

I have just set up a site recently, thanks to the help of Gabrys! :)

I would like to set my site as private though and has come in a little problem. I have set my page as private, and set it to show the page auth:login if user is unauthorized. So far so good.

However, I can't log in once the site is set as private! I currently have two admin accounts and both are members of my site. But when whenever I try logging in, it will say:

Error
Oooops!
This Site is private and accessible only to its members.

Good thing when I was trying that, I was using the accounts from two different computers at the same time. When this happened, one of the accounts was still logged in, and I was able to set it to be public again.

Is this a bug of some sort? It seems that to actually log in, user should already have access to the site first as a member and should be logged in first. But thats a recursive loop…………??!!??

Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks,
Alex

But executing php -v still says cli.

So I actually went ahead and installed php5-cgi again. And once thats done, reboot, run make again, and it is running! I can get to my page!

So php5-cgi was somehow missing since the beginning. It is either not installed, or not properly installed when installing all the packages together (I reinstalled everything from scratch 3 times before I started asking for help here). Which is weird.

Thank you very much for all your help Gabrys! :)

Under servers you should see "PostgreSQL Database Server".

Select that and then your Wikidot database. Open the "site" table and then "View Data". Find your site that you set private, edit the record and change the private field to "f" (for false). Save the changes and you should be able to get back in.

Once you're up and running again, you should create a system:join page that consists of this code:

 [[note]] Please change this page according to your policy (configure first using [[[admin:manage|Site Manager]]]) and remove this note. [[/note]] + Who can join? You can write here who can become a member of this site. + Join! So you want to become a member of this site? Tell us why and apply now! [[module MembershipApply]] Or, if you already know a "secret password", go for it! [[module MembershipByPassword]]

This is based on an older revision of WDOS (rev 393), so things might have changed in newer versions. Webmin is a great tool for remotely managing small changes in the wikdidot database. Hope this helps.

"bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php5-cgi"

execute that command with "-v" and check if it says cgi or cli. (You should have php5-cgi installed before).

Or just wikidot_ini.conf.orig? If only the latter, you need to run

bin/configure.php

Once you have both *.ini files in conf/wikidot, go to your Wikidot root directory and run this as root:

lighttpd -D -f conf/lighttpd/single_wiki.conf

This is what Wikidot calls in order to run Lighttpd. Additionally here's the -D flag, that makes Lighttpd not go to background. If errors don't show on the consele, they should be logged to tmp/lighttpd/error.log (in Wikidot root directory).

Put here any errors on console or logged to file.

port 8080 is not being listed. So I guess wikidot is not binding to lighttpd properly. What should be configured so that it would bind to lighttpd? Thanks.

  1. netstat -natp | grep lighttpd

This should return at least two lines, one for default :80 lighttpd server, second for lighttpd run from wikidotctl. If you have indeed two different ports listed (for example :80 and :8080) try http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in your browser to see what Lighttpd has to say :-).

Yes, I did use that to start wikidot, and it did give me a message stating that wikidot has started, without any errors. So I assume everything has been installed correctly.

Do I need to make any manual configurations or changes to other files in order to get this to work? For example, the ones mentioned in the previous posts, or any other files that you can think of?

/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
/wikidot/conf/lighttpd/wikidot_ini.conf
/wikidot/conf/lighttpd/single_wiki.conf
/wikidot/conf/lighttpd/wikidot_ini.conf.orig

I did modify /wikidot/conf/wikidot.ini to not use wikidot as username and password though.

Thanks,

I want to setup a Wikidot site from home and I have encounter a trouble.

I am using Ubuntu Server 9.10 and it is running on Virtualbox. I followed the guide at http://www.wikidot.org/installation-guide , and even though I have encountered different issues before, everything is set up right now.

However, when I enter the link at the end of 'make', I get "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage". I also tried using Firefox (which is recommended for wikidot) and I am still unable to load the page.

I have tried loading the page from another computer on the same network, using the IP of this ubuntu machine; as well as using the local host IP directly from the ubuntu machine. Both of which have similar results.

When loading the IP without specifying port 8080 (ie. using the default port 80), I do get the default page from lightpd, so I know lighttpd is working.

Would someone be able to enlighten me in the right direction if they haev encountered this? Or if anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Alex

Sometimes web sites (mainly social-oriented ones) allow you to paste a code block directly into other pages in order to increase your site functionality or embed some content from the original site.

Sorry, no match for the embedded content.

For the list of supported services please see the page: Embedding code from other services.

Please note that if the code contains <script type="text/javascript"… i.e. just JavaScript, the content will not be fully rendered when you click preview while editing the page. It should be there however when you view the page afterwards.
[[iframe]] element

Using the iframe element one can embed content of any other web page. The syntax is

[[iframe http://www.google.com] height (0) width (0)]

and it translates into HTML tags <iframe src="url-source" attributes></iframe>. The allowed attributes are: frameborder (0 or 1 allowed), align (left, right, top, bottom, middle), height (number of pixels or %), width (number of pixels or %), scrolling (yes or no), class, style

List pages in mediawiki doesn't exist, not by default. There is the dynamic list pages extension but no wiki farm has it enabled because it's heavy and slows down everyone. And all farms running mediawiki has the default 3 columns category pages, which are really bad for many scenarios, specially when categories are categorized and categories listing over 1000 pages.

I think that there is a missconception of considering a wiki anything that has an edit this page button.

http://moinmo.in/WikiEngineComparison
http://mojomojo.org/documentation

Lots of "this wiki has this, that wiki lacks that".

there is one thing that I find it curious, all wiki engines support some features that add functionality to wikis, such as count pages or list all categories. Netcipia runs xwiki, which calls such things "mini-applications". Other wiki engines call them macros, sometimes scripts, or like mediawiki, extensions. Wikidot itself refers to them as "modules" for instance.

I'm testing wikispot, they support tags like wikidot but their implementation is reverse. In wikidot you tag pages and list pages by tag, in wikispot you link a page to some kind of master page, which can act as hub for all pages that link to it. Damn, sycamore lacks html tags, which I really depend on… Sycamore has a different concept, there are no inline styling like mediawiki or mediawiki template definitions, they use css classes instead.

i tried

git pull git://github.com/gabrys/wikidot.git

You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
want to merge with, and 'branch.master.merge' in
your configuration file does not tell me either. Please
name which branch you want to merge on the command line and
try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
See git-pull(1) for details on the refspec.

If you often merge with the same branch, you may want to
configure the following variables in your configuration
file:

branch.master.remote = <nickname>
branch.master.merge = <remote-ref>
remote.<nickname>.url = <url>
remote.<nickname>.fetch = <refspec>

See git-config(1) for details.

I've personally been writing open source since 1991, and I believe that any software that is not open source will eventually die. This has been my experience, without exception, on every project I've ever worked. 100%.

Piotr has been doing an amazing, fantastic job on Wikidot.org and we now need to merge this experience back into Wikidot.com so that there is no risk of a permanent branch, which would be a serious problem.

I appreciate your patience with this. We will, and this is a formal promise, continue to invest in an open source Wikidot product that is as close as possible to the codebase used on Wikidot.com.

Thanks
