Description

Hi – I have two issues that need consideration:

Uniwiki “Layouts” extension

As the documentation suggests, this only works with Extension:Uniwiki_Generic_Edit_Page: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Uniwiki_Layouts installed.
And to my best knowledge, we tried this extension (when we tried to upgrade to a newer MW version), but it didn’t work, and it is currently disabled. I think we should just disable the “Layouts” extension too, in LocalSettings.php:

#require_once(”$IP/extensions/uniwiki/Layouts/Layouts.php”);

It creates an annoying step when a user creates a page – you have to click on “No Layout” to create a new page.

Add a Tag

On the Commons wiki, for some reason, the “Add a Tag” now only works on a new page after one tag has been created (i.e. a [[Category: aCategory]] exists). After that it works fine…

But on my site (running 1.13), it works fine on a new page. It immediately asks if your want to tag the new page. This is what we want on the Commons.

I am wondering what extensions might be interfering with this? Do you have an idea what is causing the conflict? Or can I get a full list of the extensions that we are currently using on the Commons wiki so I can try to comment out each to see if its absence “fixes” the problem?

Upload Permissions

One more issue that I noticed. I think users have lost permission to write to the upload folder. When Uploading files, I get Internal Error – The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver.
