 |

hi,
this is not really a gentoo issue, maybe somebody knows a hint anyway.
i set up mediawiki and want to have shorter url's.
the manuals i found 1, 2 refer to a little bit different situation, because i have url's of the form "http://wiki.xx.vu/index.php/Main_Page" but they talk about url's of the form "http://wiki.xx.vu/index.php?title=Main_Page". maybe this was the case in earlier versions of mediawiki. i use version 1.10.0.
who knows what i have to modify in my vhosts configuration and LocalSettings.php?
thanks in advance and kind regards

"http://wiki.xx.vu/index.php/Main_Page" is essentially a bit of a php hack that has the same effect as "http://wiki.xx.vu/index.php?title=Main_Page" but looks a bit nicer. I've never used mediawiki but there is a good chance that both will result in giving you the same page. (just try it)
You never actually asked a question though (or I just didn't pick up on it) but if your asking if this will work:
| Code: | Options FollowSymLinks
# enable the rewriter
RewriteEngine on
# anything else is to be treated as an article title
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /index.php?title=$1 [PT,L,QSA] |
The answer is yes  |
