Forum:Mediawiki Update

I'm looking to bump the Mediawiki version up this weekend to 1.20.3. It should go off without a hitch with little to no down time. *knock on wood* -- Fenyx4 12:32, 5 March 2013 (PST)

Good luck!--Sega381 17:08, 5 March 2013 (PST)

If you can get autocomplete working again on searches, you'll be my hero forever and forever. Dungy 17:57, 5 March 2013 (PST)

Seconded. I miss that feature like crazy. --Terilem 19:07, 5 March 2013 (PST)

Likewise! The search broke when PHP was updated. But the new version of Mediawiki should support the newer version of PHP much, much better. (As in the newer version of Mediawiki actually needs this updated version of PHP. :) ) Sorry it took me a *check calendar* year to get to this. :( -- Fenyx4 07:07, 6 March 2013 (PST)

Hey! Forums are working! As you could probably tell... Cuz... Well... You are reading them.

Other stuff:

1)Youtube Extension

2)ConfirmAccount emails

3)Was anyone using FCKEditor?

Anything else anyone has noticed? -- Fenyx4 20:07, 11 March 2013 (PDT)

I don't think anyone was actually using the FCK editor. It tended to corrupt pages, and really, wiki editing is not that hard. I know NOTHING about programming, and even I figured it out after a day. Dungy (talk) 03:10, 12 March 2013 (PDT)

Minor Version Update[edit]

Sorry if anyone was inconvenienced by the unexpected downtime. I bumped the minor version of all the wikis and updated all the extensions. Problems are unlikely to arise but let me know if you spot anything.

Also I may try to bump the major version of this wiki so it matches the version of the other wikis sometime soon. I will give a bit more heads up before I do that though. -- Fenyx4 05:32, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

And lo these many years later I have finally bumped up the Major Version. I've tried this before in the intervening time but always ran into a bug in the update script. I've finally gotten past it though.

Some of the extensions have changed and I will go through and try to clean all of that up. But let me know if you see any problems. -- Fenyx4 21:51, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
