Upgrade Notices
The 1.6.5 MediaWiki Upgrade is complete
Check your preferences to see the email options.
The Upgrade did NOT resolve the feed problem and I have opened up an entry below.
Everything else seems to be ok. Check it out and report any problems below.
Check out the New Wiki Page input boxes in the right panel.
Click on the Google logo below and note where it gets the image from and where it navigates to, very cool!

RSS Feeds
The upgrade did not cure the RSS feed problem but it now looks like the problem may be caused by a blank first line in the actual xml feed. This upgrade changed all the code files back to the standard package and only the monobook.php (skin) and the localsettings.php (config file) were changed for our installation.
Factors involved:
- This same package works properly on all of our other wikis (ver 1.45 and ver 1.6.5)
- The problem has not changed between versions
- Can detect nothing in the feed.php that might be causing the problem
I think something in the database may be generating this problem since everything else has changed and all the other wikis work fine. Any ideas????

add button
I typed "Fête de l’Internet" to add http://www.communitywiki.org/odd/FêteInternet/Accueil to the index. The place that used to have a redlink allowing me to start a new page now reads: No page with this exact title exists, <a href=":Fête de l’Internet" class="new">create an article with this title.</a> -- TedErnst | talk 16:50, 9 May 2006 (EDT)
- Looks like the new version doesn't support that syntax... bummer!
- I added the inputbox extension to the wiki and implemented it on the NoGoMatch message. Works just like the old version, just type the page name in the search box, hit the Add button and you will see the inputbox with the page name as the default. Check it out!

I love it! Great work, John! TedErnst | talk 18:39, 9 May 2006 (EDT)
I have the email me on pages changes option turned off and yet I received an email for a change of a page on my watchlist. I don't want this. How do I really turn it off? TedErnst | talk 08:49, 11 May 2006 (EDT)
