Hello,
I would like to creat sites like tibia.mynewwiki.net anothergame.mynewwiki.net etc. for the game wikis. How to do that ?
Another this is if there is a easy way to import old wiki on MediaWiki Script like this: tibia-wiki.net ?

If you use VaultWiki 3, see: https://www.vaultwiki.org/manual/Vau...rter#MediaWiki
If you use VaultWiki 4, there is not a MediaWiki importer yet. We are still working on it.

Thanks, how about the first part of my question ?
You cannot have different parts of the wiki on different sub-domains. You can have the entire wiki on one sub-domain.
If you want to have multiple wikis on different sub-domains, they would need to be separate installs on separate forums, and you would need a new license for each one. It is not currently possible to install multiple copies of VaultWiki on the same forum.
To have multiple games in the same wiki, you can try Namespacing in VaultWiki 3:
mynewwiki.net/wiki/Tibia:Page
mynewwiki.net/wiki/AnotherGame:Page
You can do the same with Prefixes in VaultWiki 4, but if you store the pages in different Areas you can have something like this instead (no Prefixes):
wiki.mynewwiki.net/tibia/Page
wiki.mynewwiki.net/anothergame/Page

Not great. This was one of the reasons that I wanted to buy the script.
Custom URLs, including choosing domains from an admin-specified list, will be supported in a future release of VaultWiki 4, but currently it is only possible to use custom URLs that are imported from VaultWiki 3. VaultWiki 3 had custom namespace URLs and page URLs could be customized using plugins.
VaultWiki 3 also had a feature called the Domain Manager, which was mainly for putting the wiki on its own sub-domain, and this could be tweaked to put individual parts of the wiki on different sub-domains. However, this feature was vastly underused and at the time it was released, vBulletin would break if it was on more than 1 sub-domain. Thus, the feature was removed when VaultWiki 4 started development.
I think I originally missed that you were using VaultWiki 3. Under VaultWiki 3, you can do what you want with sub-domains. See: https://www.vaultwiki.org/books/Docu...Domain-Manager
However, you need to set all the path settings and cookie settings correctly yourself. It is really an advanced tool. Also as I mention above, most versions of vBulletin will break if you use sub-domains that are different from the main forum. I am not sure if VaultWiki 3 was updated appropriately when vBulletin finally fixed this issue, and even so I doubt the Domain Manager was considered. I would recommend also changing your settings (using the manager's tools) so that AJAX features are disabled on sub-domains.
Also keep in mind that if you upgrade to VaultWiki 4, VaultWiki 4 does not have the same support for Domain Management, and that current versions of the VaultWiki 3 importer will probably lose the desired path information on imported articles.

It's being tested privately by some users who signed up for the test. We expect to have it ready by RC 5.

MediaWiki import is included in RC 4. However, I would not call it stable just yet. Unless you want to have us do the import for you (which is currently free for MediaWiki imports - just submit a Ticket Support service), I would only recommend using it at this time if you have some knowledge of PHP in case you encounter a bug.
