$wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['move'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['edit'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['createpage'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['createtalk'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['upload'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['reupload'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['reupload-shared'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['minoredit'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['userrights'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop' ]['noratelimit'] = true;

Builtin extensions

Server requirements

An installed wiki comes with preinstalled extensions that you can enable. However, some of these do not work on shared hosting, e.g.

• Visual editor requires a node.js server

Others require a change in server configuration, e.g.

• SyntaxHighlight requires shell access. To enable this on Infomaniak, enable it (but evaluate the risks, if a portal is hacked the others will be too).

open the Manager (manager.infomaniak.com)
go to Hosting
click on the hosting/domain name concerned
under Sites, click on the domain name of the site concerned
click onA dvanced parameters
click on the PHP Tab
put exect, shell_exec, etc. on.

Syntaxhighlight

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight

In Linux, set execute permissions for the pygmentize binary. You can use an FTP client or the following shell command to do so:

chmod a+x /path/to/extensions/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi/pygments/pygmentize

wfLoadExtension( 'SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi' );
