Work Thread: Wiki Ressurection

[wthww]

You may notice there's a new DokuWiki instance on the wiki.68kmla.org subdomain.... we're working to integrate SSO in a way that doesn't require we edit XenForo or dokuWiki in a meaningful way for longterm maintenance.

This is a technology shift from the old MediaWiki for sure, and we'll be working to migrate items over from the old wiki (including a nice looking template) over the next few months. I'll use this as a work thread for now.

Sorry it's been so long since we worked on this! My next post will be when we have SSO working as expected.

Quick update and request for testing....

Do you all mind trying to login to the new wiki instance? I've configured the wiki to auth against the forum user database. Try clicking the "68kMLA Forums" button on the wiki login page and follow the prompts.

i can log in just fine.

 

[wthww]

Thanks for giving it a shot!

 

[wthww]

Updated navigation config to send forumgoers into the wiki SSO flow. Guests receive the normal public link without SSO flow.

I was also able to log in just fine

Edit: and it seems I have permission to edit all two existant pages

Thanks for testing! I'm hoping for someone like @Apache Thunder to try it since their username has a space and I'm interested in how DokuWiku deals with that (or doesn't).

Setup/configuration work on the wiki continues...

I was able to log in. I was also able to edit the start page. (I did edit it, but just to test that I was able to edit. I set it back to normal.) You should be able to see the old revisions log and see that.

@Froggy814 Still working on the permissions bit . Thanks for testing!

 

[Apache Thunder]

Yo, what you need help testing with? Just point me where.

 

[wthww]

@Apache Thunder try the Wiki link in the header (or here) and see if it lets you login with your MLA account! Since you have a space in your username, I'm not sure how it's going to handle it.

 

[Apache Thunder]

Yeah was able to do that. It would not let me login via the username/password field. Maybe because I hadn't created a account specific to the wiki so used the button you mentioned. My username shows like this. Seems it uses underscore for spaces:

 

[wthww]

@Apache Thunder Perfect! It requires you use the link in the site header or click the "68kMLA Forums" button in the "Login With Other Services" section below the form. We may change it to always try a forums login but we're not quite there yet!

Thank you for testing!

 

[Apache Thunder]

Cool. Glad I could help with that.

Happy to help!
