It uses the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LDAP_Stack LDAP Stack] extension for login management, and the "Short URL" feature is enabled. The wiki uses the SQL database called "feministwiki" and the SQL user of the same name. | ||
The wiki | The default wiki is in English. Parallel wiki installations for different languages are supported via a combination of Apache's URL rewriting, and conditional branches in the <code>LocalSettings.php</code> file of the MediaWiki installation: | ||
* The rewrite rules ensure that, for any supported language <code>xy</code>, URLs beginning with <code>/xy/wiki/...</code> internally resolve to <code>/w/index.php</code> and URLs beginning with <code>/xy/w/...</code> resolve to <code>/w/...</code>. | |||
* The LocalSettings file checks <code>$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']</code> to determine the language code prefix in the requested URL, and configures things accordingly: | |||
** It sets <code>$wgArticlePath</code> to <code>/xy/wiki/$1</code> so that <code>/w/index.php</code> knows that when it's invoked via such a URL, it should serve an article. | |||
** It sets <code>$wgScriptPath</code> to <code>/xy/w</code> so that links to scripts served by MediaWiki are correct for the language. | |||
** It sets the SQL database name to <code>feministwiki_xy</code>. | |||
The domain names feministwiki.de and www.feministwiki.de redirect to <code>https://feministwiki.org/de</code>. For instance, requesting <code>https://feministwiki.de/wiki/Hauptseite</code> will result in an HTTP redirect to <code>https://feministwiki.org/de/wiki/Hauptseite</code>. | |||
