I can see how this could be achieved: share one DB among all wikis (using different prefixes for the MediaWiki tables as usual). But instead of using prefixed SMW tables, use one global set of SMW tables and store interwiki prefixes for all page data (even if local to a certain wiki). This would require all wikis to have one unique interwiki prefix used in all other wikis to address it. A slightly cleaner solution would be to specify an independent DB for SMW, so that the wikis are not even required to share the same MW database. This approach might just work, but there are still quite some internal changes to be done (e.g. SMW currently stores localized names for its special properties in the DB tables to simplify access -- this would be a problem if wikis in multiple languages use the same tables). Also, properties with interwiki prefixes do not work yet (interwiki prefixes only work for [property] pages, but not for properties, I believe). This extension will not happen very soon (we first need to get SMW 1.5 out). But I will keep it in mind for future extensions. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
