  1. Sorry BN realised I cannot download wamp to extract LocalSettings.php.

    • Ron, we already changed that line to true from false and had no problem at all, so we will email it to you. Just rename your current LocalSettings.php to LocalSettings.php.bak then put our file in place ;)

    Many thanks for that. I did not receive your email so I checked the email address and noted I made a mistake in the address! I am used to having to type my email address. I do apologise for the trouble I am putting you to.

    Kind regards

    Thank you for your email. For the sake of others who may benefit from my mistakes and your advice, I thought I should update this thread.

    One of my problems was that I used the wrong text editor when editing the LocalSettings.php file. As you advised, I downloaded the free text editor ‘Notepad++’, which worked fine.

    Using ‘Notepad++’ I was able to edit LocalSettings.php to upload ‘pdf’ and ‘doc’ files to the wiki by adding the two lines of scripts under:

    require_once( “$IP/includes/DefaultSettings.php” ); (UNDER THIS)

    $wgFileExtensions[] = ‘doc’;

    $wgFileExtensions[] = ‘pdf’;
