Edit loss when WikiEditor used in forms and wiki has default URL structure
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG REPORT

Description

This is a bit specific, so I don't know how easy it will be to reproduce.
I installed a wiki with both Semantic Forms and WikiEditor enabled.

The main page contains a input box to create a new page using a form and a template:

If I do the following:

  • click to edit the page
  • click on the "Preview" tab in the WikiEditor
  • click publish

Then instead of seeing the edited page, I see a page titled "Add a page through a form", just as if I clicked on the forminput button. And my edits are not saved.

I have found that after enabling short urls the problem disappeared. I'm suspecting semantic for to hijack the POST request from wikieditor request.

I can perhaps help if you can show me a public spot that has the same problems (be it your SMW wiki or someone else's)

Hi,

Thanks for your answer. I managed to reproduce the issue on a freshly installed mediawiki.

After that, the url is what is expected http://wiki.zjyto.net/w/index.php?title=Bug&action=submit but the page content is wrong: (Special page) Start of form

I realised yesterday that the url in my previous comment was not properly setup in DNS. This should be fixed now.

I'm guessing that this has been fixed at some point in the intervening nine years.
