Extension talk:Lexicon

Hi,

Thanks for the wondeful extension I have successfully installed it in my mediawiki 1.15.1 and I am able to confirm that from 'Versions' in wiki special pages But, I do not see any words underlined eventhough I created template page for namespace 'term' and explained the term and definition fields in the way required. Could you please tell me more what should I do to use it properly?

Thank you

Hello, and thanks for trying out the extension!

Have you created the additional database table? If not you can run the included sql file "Lexicon.sql"

mysql -u root -p {MediaWiki database name} < Lexicon.sql

The database user must be able to create tables and triggers.

After this run this command on the database:

UPDATE `Lexicon_cache` SET `term` = 'reload' WHERE `id` =0;

Please see the startup instructions for further detail.

Google Code Shutting Down

Hello, As you are likely aware, Google is shutting down their Google Code service in January of 2016. This extension appears to house its code with Google Code and is at risk to creating broken links and confusion of users in the near future.

I’m helping to let folks know about this coming update and provide some helpful links to make this migration easy. I hope you’ll take a moment and migrate your extension to a new hosting solution.

For extensions that have a compatible license, you can request developer access to the MediaWiki source repositories for extensions and get a new repository created for you. Alternatively, you may also export your code to other popular repositories such as Github and Bitbucket. Google has provided tools to help with this migration.
