Re: [Semediawiki-user] Semediawiki-user Digest, Vol 34, Issue 27

[Guoqian J. <gq...@ho...>]

This looks very nice. 

I tried a local installation and found that format=exhibit does not work. 

An inline query give back a tabular rendering.

but when I set 

$srfgFormats[] = 'exhibit';

It does not show anything.

I am using SMW1.4.2 + Halo 1.4.2 and replaced exhibit subfolder with the latest svn download.

Any idea?

Thanks,

-Guoqian
