I need help. I just joined and created an account. But it won’t let me log in and I know I put it in the way I created. What do I do?

Where did you join? on your own mediawiki installation? Or here on mediawiki.org? On another wikimedia project? Can you go to "Special:RequestNewPassword"? (have it email you a link to change your password)

I can't edit Common.css though I have the interface admin rights. What's wrong?

Are you getting any error messages when you try?

I have no edit tab and it says: "Du bist aus dem folgenden Grund nicht berechtigt, diese Seite bearbeiten:

Du hast keine Berechtigung, diese JavaScript-Seite zu bearbeiten, da sie alle Besucher betreffen könnte."

"You have a permission to edit this Side: You have no permission to edit this JavaScript-Side, cause it ca affect all users."

"no permission" not "a permission"

Check on your wiki's Special:ListGroupRights whether the interface-admin group has the editsitejs user right. If it does, double-check on your wiki's Special:UserRights whether your account is actually an interface admin.

I've have both. Can there be anything missing on Server outside Mediawiki?

Dinoguy1000 (talkcontribs)

Are there any other editors on your wiki who are interface administrators? If so, are they able to edit your wiki's MediaWiki:Common.js?

For that matter, what happens if you try to edit your wiki's MediaWiki:Common.css?

2A02:6D40:37A7:3801:79C9:2FF8:2C65:E0AE (talkcontribs)

no. i'm the only one. Mediawiki:Common.css is exact the page i want to edit

Dinoguy1000 (talkcontribs)

Oh, sorry about that, I somehow got mixed up about which page you've been trying to work on.

In that case, you should check to make sure that the interface-admin group has the editsitecss right.

Hello, so I have recently started a new wiki, and I want to be on my new wiki an admin. How do I make myself an admin?

Thank you!

How did you exactly started a new wiki? The installer automatically gives admin permissions to the user that's created during install

Plastacikec (talkcontribs)

Oh okay, I made a wiki on Cloudron hosting

Ciencia Al Poder (talkcontribs)

Run the Manual:createAndPromote.php maintenance script from a shell command to create a user, or make this user a sysop.

If you don't know how to get shell access, ask your hosting.

Ok thanks :)
