A possible work around in our case is to re-call the array in the main body of the page, which then makes it available.

Wiki Issues

Task Description Priority Assignment
Gateway timeouts E.g. upload two files at the same time, 1 and 2, gives a gatway timeout. Script for load testing added here: OER:TODO/Gateway High
Ensure that ppt and notebook files can be uploaded The .ppt and .notebook files here [1] fail to upload to the wiki. It may be a settings issue. High
Rename print options in sidebar menu "Print" Given that OCG is working poorly, could we change the order of the links, and the text for pdf link? E.g. add experimental after pdf?
  • Print/export
    • Create a book
    • Download ready-made PDF
    • Download ZIM
    • Printable version
    • Download as PDF (experimental)
    • Download as Plain text

Then

  1. On the "Rendering" page for PDF, after the sentence: "This page should automatically refresh every few seconds. If this does not work, please press your browser's refresh button." could we add (in big writing): "Note that PDF export is highly experimental, and for many pages may not give usable output."
  2. "Download ready-made pdf" should point to a page OER:PDF where we explain the situation, and link to a ready-made PDF.
  3. The "Download ZIM" should link e.g. to OER:ZIM, where we explain, and link to the ZIM.
High
mwoffline script should load MediaWiki:Offline.css High
In the ZIM and for parsoid: Section numbers (with page, e.g. 1.2.3, 1.2.4, etc.) are not preserved... Example: [2] High
In the ZIM, the semantic markup for lesson objective and success critieria is visible, i.e. [[intent: .... ]] shows. High
Parsoid output shows numerical IP address E.g. http://oer.educ.cam.ac.uk:8000/oer/OERGS%2FG1, shows numerical IP address. Low
For User:Bjoern Special:Preferences has a different skin from the main namespace Low

Solved

printonly class Why does this not work? User:Bjoern/noprint, MediaWiki:Vector.css. Solution: See MediaWiki:Vector.css, MediaWiki:Print.css, and (waiting for ZIM integration) MediaWiki:Offline.css

Collection of issues

Paroid output does have blue background


Bugs for ZIM

Zim reader on OS X has no keyboard shortcuts for forward/back.

Parsoid output does not deal with arrays defined in templates. Example: User:Bjoern/arrayinclusion . From https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T87157:
