Import Mediawiki-Installation to Xenforo

[pegasus]

I believe that is the only directory. Yes it can be renamed and/or hidden outside your document root. There is a configuration setting in the importer where you define the source directory.

If no, then a fake guest with the source username gets credit.

Is it possible to merge these fake users with existing xf-users after the import ?

[hollosch]

We also have a additional blog-namespace, is this a problem ?

Are there Vaultwiki-options/alternatives for these MW-extensions:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AJAXPoll (to create polls=
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite (important)
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:InputBox (to creat formulars, etc)

[pegasus]

Extension:AJAXPoll is not imported. VaultWiki currently has no polling system, although one is planned: https://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/3674/
Poll data from VaultWiki 3 was kept in the background to wait for the new system.

Extension:Cite is supported using VaultWiki's FOOTNOTE and REFLIST tags. I believe the import process should convert these.

Extension:InputBox is not supported at this time. For basic forms, you should use HTML to create forms as VaultWiki templates inside an area that only admins can edit (to prevent other users from making HTML). For AJAX forms that don't submit anything, but convert user inputs, etc are not currently supported.

Hi,
is it normal when editing a section that no editor is displayed ?

[hollosch]

Is it possible when creating a new page, that the user can choose from a set of templates?

How can i change the colour of "existing Links" ?

By design, VaultWiki disables WYSIWYG/RTE mode when editing a section of a page.

This eliminates problems caused by converting partial tags to HTML and back -- a common problem many editors create when using WYSIWYG mode without considering that markup between two sections should be kept separate from each other. If markup between sections is not kept separate, it leads to rendering problems and loss of ability to edit some sections. To prevent rendering issues in section-editing mode and to assist cleanup with the aforementioned issues, you can only use the standard BB-Code editor in that mode.

An unfortunate side effect of this is that XenForo does not show the button toolbar when RTE mode is disabled. This is one of the only disappointments I have with XenForo compared to vBulletin. IMO it should still be possible to have a button to insert the raw BB-Code, even if it won't be rendered to HTML in the editor window.

There are plenty of "Wiki" related style properties. For wiki links, Style Properties > Wiki BB-Codes > Wiki Links.

Thanks, it seems there is a bug with that property in our XenForo version. XenForo has more qualified a:link, a:visited rules that are overriding the property. It should be fixed in the next release.

Is there a special page like "wanted pages" @mediawiki?

[pegasus]

Yes: https://www.vaultwiki.org/pages/Special:WantedPages
Although looking at that list, I'm not sure if links are being counted correctly.
