1. Install mediawiki on /wiki/ folder and place the short urls with a different prefix. Just that will allow your visitors to see the content. 2. Make .htaccess redirect (301) ^index.php?title=[^&]*$ to the desired short url. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
