[Pkg-mediawiki-devel] Bug#392966: mediawiki multisite setup request

[Ivan A. Beveridge]

Package: mediawiki
Severity: wishlist

I'm after installing mediawiki for multiple sites on a single server,
akin to Romain's posting a year ago:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-mediawiki-devel/2005-September/000036.html

>From a quick look it appears that the current software is not yet able
to do this (which is surprising - I can't imagine this is a unique
request) as it requires a changes to the mediawiki php config file
(aside from the database, which is trivial obviously).

Gallery v2 has this functionality built into the software, and the
debian package for wordpress (blog) has this built into the package. On
a "quick skim", the wordpress way seemed a nice solution to the problem
- I don't know whether it is possible to apply this to mediawiki.

Thanks in advance


Ivan
