http://asgardshonor.trubox.com is the wiki I'm working on at the moment. This is a wiki devoted to a MUD, Asgard's Honor.

Due to a typo, the above link has been fixed

I'm working on several extensions, including one to hook MediaWiki into a database using the DB name space. To get a database value, one would do DB:table:row/column. However, for the moment, I'm satisfied by using DB:topic/key which returns a value and is good for most purposes that my mud-wiki needs, for the moment.

I'm having problems with localurl -- it doesn't work right. When I do

[{{SERVER}}:{{localurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}/{{{1}}}|action=edit}}] 

I get some weird results, such as the end of the link gets chopped at {{{1} and localurl never gets translated. Help is appreciated.

Even here I have trouble. I've copied from the pi template, and that doesn't work either.

Extensions

  • /Auto_Login_via_REMOTE_USER extension. Use the Web server's authentication to create and authenticate Wiki users.
  • /Advanced Go patch. This is a patch applied to SearchEngine.php to improve it's intelligence when the user hits Go. There are some optimizations, plus the admin may specify an array of namespaces that are searched by Go if the article is not in the Main namespace.
