[Phpwiki-talk] Can't delete pages: "someone has edited the page"

[Oliver B. <OB...@de...>]

Hi All,

using PHPWiki 1.3.3 I can't remove pages. I get the message

"Someone has edited the page! Since you started the deletion process,
someone has saved a new version of HomePage. Please check to make sure
you still want to permanently remove the page from the database."

What goes wrong / what can I do?

TIA,

Oliver

[Carsten K. <car...@us...>]

Hello all,

After a long personal hiatus I'm visiting PhpWiki again. I don't have 
as much time these days to devote to PhpWiki but I'll still be 
"checking in" once in a while.

Since I last looked so much great new stuff has been added to explore, 
I don't know where to begin!!!

Thanks
:)

Ups - I read it the wrong way :-) As already pointed out by Lawrence,
then you need WantedPages...

It sounds like you're looking for the OrphanedPages plugin.
You should already have a page called OrphanedPages which
uses the plugin, if not, then here's the source for the
page:

OrphanedPages are those pages which don't have any links to them.

[Phpwiki-talk] Unwritten pages?

[Breki T. <br...@ho...>]

Hi all.

Sorry if this is implemented in 1.3.3 allready, but I've been running 1.2
for what seems to be all my life. I've just updated to 1.3.3 and haven't
quite gotten used to it after I got it working (PHP was giving me a hassle
:-) )

I'm wondering if there is any way of adding a page on the Wiki that includes
links to all pages that have been linked to but not created?

You see, what I've done is that I've got a frame on the right hand side of
the Wiki that shows 25 random pictures (a new every 30 seconds). Each page
links to a page on the Wiki and includes a variety of links that become
interconnected after one starts browsing through the page. Because of this,
I have no central place to work from and often find a bunch of unwritten
links on a page that I haven't seen for some time.

Having a central place that includes a list of those pages, preferably with
a field stating how many pages now link to this unwritten page, would be
VERY helpful, and I'm sure that many other Wiki administrators would
appreciate a feature such as this one.

That's about all. :-)

Thanks!
Breki.

[Phpwiki-talk] business relationship

[MR G. E. <god...@ma...>]

Hello,
I am Godwin Emeifile, Bank Manager of Zeinth Bank of
Nigeria, Lagos 
Branch. I have urgent and very confidential
proposition 
for you. On June 6th, 1997, an American Oil,
Corporation/Contractor
with the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, Mr.
Robert Noel 
made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve
calender month, value at 
US $23,250.00
(Twenty-three Million, Two hundred and fifty Thousand
US Dollars only) in my branch.

Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his 
forwarding address but got no apply. After a month, we
sent a reminder 
and finally we discovered from his contract employers,
the Nigeria 
National Petroleum Corporation that Mr. Robert Noel
died from an 
automobile crash. On further investigation, I found
out that he died without 
making a 
“WILL”, and all attempt to trace his next of kin was
fruitless. 
]I therefore made further investigation and discovered
that Mr. Robert 
Noel did not declare any kin or regulations in all his
official documents, 
including his Bank Deposit paper work in my bank. This
sum of
 US $23,250,000.00

Only is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is
being rolled 
over the principal sum at the end of each year. No one
will 
ever come forward to claim it.

According to Nigeria Law, at the expiration of 5
(five) years, 
the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigeria
Government 
if nobody applies to claim the fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a
Foreigner 
to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Robert Noel so
that the fruits
of this old man’s labour will not get into the hands
of some corrupt 
government officials. 
This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately
your full
names and address so that the Attorney will prepare
the necessary 
documents and affidavits, which will put you in place
as the next 
of kin. We shall employ the Service of two attorney
for drafting
and notarization of the’ will ‘and to obtain the
necessary documents and 
letter of 
probate / administration in your favour for the
transfer for the .A Bank Account
in any part of world which you will provide will then
facilitate the 
transfer of this 
money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. the money
will be paid 
into your account for us to share in the ratio of
60%for me and 40%for 
you 

There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this
transaction will be 
done by the attorney and my position as the Branch
Manager guarantees 
the successful execution of this transaction.
If you are interested, please reply immediately via
the private address 
below.
upon your respond, i shall then provide you with more
details and relevant documents that will help you
understand the transaction. please observe utmost
confidentially, and be rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us
because i shall require your assistance to invest my
share in your country. 
Awaiting your urgent reply via my private email
address: 
thanks and regards.
Godwin Emeifile.

Going a little beyond that, I would like the ability to have the uploaded 
files assigned to the page they were uploaded to - something like attaching 
a file to a page and having the page list all the files that are attached 
to it. On a phpwiki that I am working on, we need the ability to assign 
ZIP/PDF files to the page which get updated every week or so (upload new 
copy, delete old copy, update wiki with new information)...

http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/UploadPlugin

This is a magnificent solution. The admins for my server
approved this as secure from their perspective. There was another
upload script at the phpwiki site that was not. I tried them both
and settled on the Plugin version.

[Phpwiki-talk] accents/umlauts in file names

[Oliver B. <li...@gm...>]

Hello All,

there are some files with non-ascii-characters converted to hex 
codes, especially some buttons in the Spanish and German MacOSX 
theme. I think that's not a good idea since one can't upload them via 
FTP.

The PGSRC are also affected, but IMHO it's a good idea to ZIP this 
stuff, anyhow.

[Phpwiki-talk] USE_PATH_INFO and FullTtextSearch

[Oliver B. <li...@gm...>]

Hello all,

first of all many thanks to all people involved in PhpWiki 
development! I like the idea to _simply_ collect information at home 
and in my office, and maybe it's useful for our school, too.

Trying PhpWiki 1.3.3 I found that paths are not allowed after the URL 
to the PHP script. It results in "Internal Server Error" and my ISP 
had no solution ("maybe a bug in PHP in CGI mode"). I guess that this 
could be a configuration problem, but I have no clue about this. Any 
hint what to tell him?

But with parameters separated by "?" no search function is available. 
I have been reading about the InternetExplorerGetMethodBug, but it 
doesn't work in Opera 6 nor Mozilla 1.1. Is this confirmed or is 
there any chance I can resolve the problem by setting some 
parameters?

Or do I need a mod_rewrite rule? I had a short look at this but gave 
up after a while. What should be the right parameter for the search 
command?

TIA,

Oliver

Correct this solution will be harder to impliment.  Not only does it 
require the backend support for each DB, but there is also the need for 
administrative plugins (plugins that check permissions) to add people to 
groups and to create groups.

You're correct Jeff.  For each page that is a-r, g+r, and not owned by 
the viewer only one group page would need to be accessed (unless we 
allow groups to belong to groups, **shudder**).  So most pages will not 
require the rendering of a group page.

The 1+N problem comes into fruition in situations where we want to get 
all of the groups to which the user belongs.  The example Reini put 
forward was if we want to limit searches to only pages the user can view.

After some thought there is no reason we can't abstract this and do both 
(with a config option and WikiGroup::getGroup) with a group object that 
would be called within WikiRequest or WikiUser.  Since the #2 is going 
to be FAR easier to impliment and #1 requires some other work done, #2 
will be the proto-type.  I'll have a mock up in the near future.

OK, there was a problem with the last patch - this one is better. The
new patch also takes care of InterWiki links. I hope someone can use
this.

[Phpwiki-talk] Keeping icon together with link

[Martin G. <gim...@gi...>]

Hi,

I like the idea about putting small icons in front of links to make it
easy to identify the type, but there's one thing that has bothered me
about this from the start: the icon is often separated from the link,
especially when the link is a long raw URL.

The following patch should take care of that. It inserts a span tag
around the icon and the first word in the link and uses the
white-space attribute to make the two stick together.

The 'style' => 'white-space: nowrap' should probably be moved into the
stylesheet, but this demonstrates the idea:

I'd leave it where it is, I think.  It's the WikiDB's job to tell you
the owner and protection mode (which it already does via meta-data).

That seems fine.  Except that requiredAuthority is a method
of WikiRequest which already knows the $page, I think....

#1 requires an SQL backend as well as modifications to WikiDB (or
a separate interface to the SQL db).

There are speed issues with #2, but I don't think they're as bad
as Joby says.  Each page belongs to only one group, so
for a given access we only have to check for membership in a single
group --- not all groups...
