It has been a while since I did that modification but I believe I found out how to do it here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_styles#Rounded_corners_in_Mozilla

Hope that helps.

Question about Myblog

I have just installed my blog but am having trouble, which I think all comes from when clicking the 'my blog' link not displaying correctly. Instead of getting what I see on this site when testing I get 

   User:Dkendall
   <subpagetitle>
   < User:Dkendall
       * User:Dkendall/Special:ListSubPages

I've gone through the install process several times but haven't corrected the issue.

And when I click on 'Most recent Blogs' I get the following error. 

   Invalid non-numeric limit passed to limitResult()
   Backtrace:
   #0 /home/chempet1/public_html/wiki/includes/Database.php(1238): Database->limitResult('SELECT page_na...', '0,10', false)
   #1 /home/chempet1/public_html/wiki/extensions/SpecialPagesAllBlogs.php(50): Database->select('page', Array, Array, 'listallblogs', Array)
   #2 /home/chempet1/public_html/wiki/includes/SpecialPage.php(464): SpecialListAllBlogs->execute()

Thanks - Darren Ps. I tried to get to the IRC server irc.chekmate.org, but the server appears to be offline.

I have installed Myblog on my mediawiki server, but I am getting an error. I have the "Most Recent Blogs" link working, but when I click on the "my blog" link, it gives me an HTTP 500 error. The link that it can't resolve is: http://localhost/intranet/wiki/index.php/Special:ListSubPages/User:WikiSysop Thanks for the help,

Sorry, I just returned from the UK. Error 500 means there is an error executing the page. If you can review your web server error log and report what the error message is, then I would be able to help tell you what the problem is.

Here is the only thing that even looks like an error from the apache error log

[Mon Nov 27 09:53:54 2006] [info] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 10022)An invalid argument was supplied.  : core_output_filter: writing data to the network [Mon Nov 27 09:53:54 2006] [info] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 10022)An invalid argument was supplied.  : core_output_filter: writing data to the network

MyBlog links

Ok, for some reason, the links provided on the blog posts are not working correctly...

  • Discussion
  • 'Users' blog
  • User profile link
  • Blog post title

They all seem to take me to the main page instead of their proper destination... The only one that does work as intended, is the 'Blog entry.....' link...

I have noticed looking at the addresses shown in my browser, that the addresses do not apear to be correct...

eg.

So the links are missing the '?title=' (I dont yet have 'clean' titles)

I looked in the code, to try to fix this, and I found this code in the 'SpecialPageSubPages.php file: 

$wgOut->addHTML("<table width=100%><tr><td align=left><font size=4><a href=\"$wgScript/User:". $row->page_title ."\">$date1</a></font><br>Posted By: <a href=\"$wgScript/User:$user1\">$user1</a></td><td valign=top align=right><a href=\"$wgScript/User_talk:". $row->page_title ."\">Discussion</a><br><a href=\"$wgScript/Special:ListSubPages/User:$user1\">$user1's Blog</a><td></tr></table>");

I attempted modifying it to something like this: 

$wgOut->addHTML("<table width=100%><tr><td align=left><font size=4><a href=\"/index.php?title=User:". $row->page_title ."\">$date1</a></font><br>Posted By: <a href=\"/index.php?title=User:$user1\">$user1</a></td><td valign=top align=right><a href=\"/index.php?title=User_talk:". $row->page_title ."\">Discussion</a><br><a href=\"/index.php?title=Special:ListSubPages/User:$user1\">$user1's Blog</a><td></tr></table>");

I also attempted just placing '?title=' in front of the original code, and leaving in '$wgScript/' But nothing has worked for me...in fact, even with those changes, the links did not change at all?

Can you help? Tell me what to edit so I can make those links work properly

Cheers

Update:

I now have 'clean' titles...but have yet to get these links working properly...please help?

So the current difference is causing the link to not direct correctly: index.php/

How can I fix this please? --HTPCnz 21:45, 3 April 2008 (MDT)
