FCKEditor breaks Interwiki links

[david basulto]

When using ​InterWiki links, FCKEditor translates them to regular wiki links, breaking its functionability.

IE:

[w:Barcelona] gets translated to a link to ​http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcelona when using InterWiki capabilities.

FCKEditor converts that syntax into:

[[W:Barcelona|w:Barcelona]]

converting it into a regular Wiki link to page W:Barcelona

I use 2 wiki for 2 languages and make use of interwiki links: fr:Main-Page and nl:Main-Page When I read a page with interwiki link, the source contains the link and it works well. But when I edit the page with FCKeditor the link disappears from de textarea and if I save the link is irremediably lost is ther a pragmatic solution to avoid this ? I use MediaWiki: 1.11.0 and fck/mw-extension (0.7.4) 2007 (07-02-2007)

I'm setting this ticket as DUP of #1883 because we have more information about this issue in that ticket.

[Evan Prodromou]

This is not a dupe of 1883! This is about interwiki links, which are rendered in the page as regular <a> links. That's different from interlanguage links, which are rendered outside the main text of the page (in a special menu on the left-hand sidebar, in the default skin).

For example, on the Vinismo article about Italian wine, ​http://vinismo.com/en/Italy , there's an interwiki link to the Wikipedia article on Italian wine. It looks like "​Italian wine". It renders in the text of the article.

There's also an interlanguage link to the French Vinismo article about Italian wine at ​http://vinismo.com/fr/Italie . The code looks like "[[fr:Italie]]", and it renders on the left sidebar. Different MW skins put interlanguage links in different pages, but they almost always end up outside the main flow of text.

So: there are two different problems here; it's probably a bad idea to try to combine them.

[Wojciech Olchawa]

Sorry Evan. I misunderstood the reporter. I'm reopening this ticket.

Thanks for help.

I'm using a recent mediawiki+fckeeditor integration and what I see is that the editor rewrites my interwiki links. Suppose I have [[foo:bar]] mapped to ​http://foo.com/bar. The editor will take foo.bar? wikitext and rewrite it to

the actual expanded URL ​foo:bar. This is workable, but a pain when I need to modify the mapping from foo:bar to ​http://foo2.com/bar]

I suspect this is an error in the integration and no fckeditor per se, but I don't know.

[Eric Bloch]

Gasp. The editor ate some of my formatting. Let me try again.

#2030 has been marked as DUP

[Eric Bloch]

Fwiw, the description is #2030 describes a similar but slightly different rewriting, if that makes a difference.

[Wojciech Olchawa]

Confirmed using IE and FF2 at MW 1.12 and SVN version of FCKeditor

[Wiktor Walc]

Fixed with [1852].

[Eric Bloch]

I just took last nights fckeditor build and plopped it into my mediawiki and I'm still seeing the issue I reported in #2030

[[foo:bar]] is being re-written as ​foo:bar

[Eric Bloch]

Ach I forget to do the write formatting here agin.

[[foo:bar]]

is being rewritten as

[http://foo/bar  foo:bar]

[Wiktor Walc]

Fixed bug with overwriting interwiki link description (introduced with [1859]): [1930].

EricBloch: I can't reproduce this issue in our Sandbox: ​http://mediawiki.fckeditor.net/index.php/1543 (remember to clear your browsers cache).

[Wiktor Walc]

Marking as fixed because the original issue has been fixed, please create another ticket to report issue with [[foo:bar]] if you still are able to repoduce it (I can't).
