How do I log in to MediaWiki?

Apps 124 views Markdown
  1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
  2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "MediaWiki is ready". The page refreshes itself.
  3. Click Open app.
  4. Enter the details from the Login and Password rows. The login is Yonetici, which is Turkish for "admin", with a capital Y. There is no setup screen.
  5. Open your name at the top right, go to Preferences and update your email address and password.

Further down the page, the Username row and the Password row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to MediaWiki.

Good to know

  • The interface starts in Turkish and the time zone is Istanbul.
  • Visitors can read pages but can't edit them or create accounts. To change that, edit the $wgGroupPermissions lines in /opt/seturack/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php.
  • The site opens over HTTPS on a free sslip.io address based on your IP. If a certificate can't be issued, it opens over http:// instead. Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.

To use your own domain, see this article.

No server yet? Order a server with MediaWiki installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
