Default setting seems doesn't work for me.

    This plugins seems very good for integrate mediawiki and wordpress.
    But at default setting(url as ‘https://en.wikipedia.org’), I tried as shown in sample : [wiki]WordPress[/wiki]
    And there’s just an error message on tooltip: “sorry, but we were not able to find this page”

    Plus, I tried debugging codes and has some suggestion:
    On class.wp-wiki-tooltip.php, source code like this –const WIKI_API_PATH = '/w/api.php';
    But, api path is not always in directory “/w/”, but depended on setting of server.
    For support of arbitrary mediawiki, needs some change on setting page.(e.g. variable ‘url of wiki’ to ‘api path of wiki’)

    Please update to the new version 1.1.0! I refactored the AJAX call of getting the content from the Wiki into the tooltip. Does it help?

    Additionally, thanks for the hints. I will review the constants within the next version!

    Updated to 1.1.0 and tried again, but it still doesn’t work..

    I suspected that there’s some problem in generating full api query path.

    I’m first at web setting and my server has many restrictions. So my server setting is not default. (filepath, permission, charset, network port, etc.) And it may arise some bugs based on dependancy of server setting.
    Can I see debug mesaage or other other methods?

    I just published a new version (1.2.0) with a redesign of how the requests to the Wiki API are done. Now, a WordPress internal function is used (wp_remote_get) instead of a raw file_get_contents PHP call…

    Please update and let me know, if it works now!

    Thanks for Update. Now it works on wikipedia!

    In other mediawiki sites, still some error occurs.(e.g. wiki.archlinux.org) It seems that compatibility problem exists between wikipedia and other mediawiki in ‘WIKI_API_PATH’ and api parameters(noimages, mobileformat…etc) But anyway, now I can use wikipedia as a help tooltip.

    Once again, thank you very much for plugin development and answers.

    Nice to hear! I will see how to add some options for other Wikis within the next version…
