Hi Valerio!
Thank you for looking into this.
Reviewing these links implies that this requires an extension? So it
cannot be done simply, directly from LocalSettings.php?
Could you provide please a minimal example how to set as
$CUSTOM_VARIABLE = "custom-content";?
Template are generally awesome but won't work here.
The use case here is multiple domain support, an alternative domain name
accessing the same wiki/database, which already works great for me.
What I really want to set is something similar to
{{SERVER}} = //www.example.com
{{SERVERNAME}} = www.example.com
But I only need
{{CUSTOM_APEX_DOMAIN_NAME}} = example.com
The use case in mediawiki markup would then be:
[{{protocoll_handler}}://forums.{{apex_domain_name}} our forums]
(I.e. "relative domain names which support sub domain changes")
This is the multiple domain support snippet which already works for me:
###
if (preg_match("/onion.onion/i", $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'])) {
$wgServer = '
http://www.onion.onion'; $wgCanonicalServer = '
https://www.example.com'; $wgAllowExternalImagesFrom = array( '
http://127.0.0.1/', '
http://www.onion.onion/' );
$wgRenderHashAppend = "www.onion.onion";
$wgCachePrefix = "www.onion.onion";
$wgFileCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache/www.onion.onion";
$wgLocalisationUpdateDirectory = "$IP/cache/www.onion.onion";
$wgCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache/www.onion.onion";
$MY_FQDN = "
http://www.onion.onion"; } else {
$wgServer = '//www.example.com';
$wgCanonicalServer = '
https://www.example.com'; $wgAllowExternalImagesFrom = array( '
http://127.0.0.1/', '
https://www.example.com/' );
$wgRenderHashAppend = "www.example.com";
$wgCachePrefix = "www.example.com";
$wgFileCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache/www.example.com";
$wgLocalisationUpdateDirectory = "$IP/cache/www.example.com";
$wgCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache/www.example.com";
$MY_FQDN = "
https://www.example.com"; }
###
If I had the snippet to add custom magic words to LocalSettings.php,
then kinda what I would add there is this:
if (preg_match("/onion.onion/i", $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'])) {
$CUSTOM_APEX_DOMAIN_NAME = 'onion.onion';
} else {
$CUSTOM_APEX_DOMAIN_NAME = 'example.com';
}
Basically, how would I make $CUSTOM_APEX_DOMAIN_NAME available from
inside the mediawiki?
I've left the lengthy description of my use case out from my original
post for brevity.
Kind regards,
Patrick
