Hi guys!

I upgrade mediawiki 1.17 to 1.20.5 and all articles and pictures works fine, but editors don't work. I tried to upgrade and install last versions of: - FCKEditor - CKEditor - VisualEditor - Wysiwyg Any work. Sometimes don't editor doesn't work and other I can't see my wiki.

I can't see any error in logs files. What could be the problem? Any idea ?

Thanks

These editors are not supported anymore. What you could try is WikiEditor, but it is not a real WYSIWYG editor....

Hi,

I install last version of wikieditor and works fine, but i need write in wiki format. With the others editors (FCKEditor, CKEditor...) I can write and then itself change automaticaly to wiki text format.

Can I find any editor that can do it?

I will finish more quickly to edit articles.

Thanks.

Currently there is a gap. WYSIWYG extension is unfortunately not picked up by someone. you can get it to work by spending 2 days of trying some patches, or by installing an older MW. I think it is dying at the moment for the following reason:

A new (very cool) editor VE is in development. The disadvantage is that it is not ready yet, and you need to install parsoid. So you need install (apt-get) rights on your server. They promised a solution for that in a couple of month (from july 2013) but i think the team is somewhat overloaded at the moment, so it might be a bit optimistic. My guess is also that it will be pushed forward, as they have mainly wikipedia in mind.

I would go for VE if possible, else install mw 1.17. and use Extension:WYSIWYG
