If you are trying to append a page from a newer version of Media Wiki the current code will not work. You will need to update line 149 of the php file from
if (!$h->fetch($page."?action=render"))
to
if (!$h->fetch($page."&action=render"))
After you make the update the plugin will work correctly.
]]>I guess this issue has to do with the right configuration of your MediaWiki deployment, using absolute URLs for your images instead of the default, which is relative URLs.
I was digging inside my wiki settings and I couldn’t figure out how to change the output URL associated to images and other media resources. Besides, I assume that in many cases, when appending a wiki page, you don’t have admin permissions of the wiki at stake.
So, I guess this is some kind of feature request: It would be really nice to have a parser URL-bullet-proof function to assure that, whatever kind of URL configuration of the incoming wiki, images render ok.
]]>This plugin has a lot of potential.
Though I would find it more practical if we could get content from Wikipedia by inserting shortcodes in this HTML area.
Does anybody have a clue how to get this?
Thanks!
How can I limit the characters it scrapes from wiki? Basically, I would like it to only show the first paragraph.
