Aye, the issue is that not all of the mediawiki markup is actually supported. It would be nice to have actual documentation of the software that is actually in use, rather than of the other software that it purports to emulate....
E.g. I tried to make "Shaloren" redirect to "Shalore", because I foresaw a need for page redirects in the near future, and this was one of the obvious places to use it. So I created
and made sure Mediawiki emulation was marked, and this is the result:
http://te4.org/wiki/shaloren
which says
Code: Select all
Fatal error: Call to a member function token() on a non-object in /var/www/te4.org/htdocs/sites/all/modules/pearwiki_filter/Text/Wiki.php on line 1069
Based on that error message, I attempted to search for help using Google, and found nothing helpful....
Second problem I ran into personally was the lack of proper handling of mediawiki tables -- specifically style elements. Putting
border="1" on the opening line of a table definition only gives a border around the table headers, not around the table elements. Putting
style="..." on individual table lines seems to do nothing at all. You can see examples on pretty much every table in the wiki -- one would be
http://te4.org/wiki/shaloren-racial-tree -- note the lack of boxes around the non-header table elements, which makes it really hard to read the descriptions (to see where one stops and the next begins).
