If we can continue that trend we are on the right track. || '''Badges''' || {{attachment:LogoDiscussion/hcbadge2.gif}} || {{attachment:LogoDiscussion/hcbadge3.gif}} || == T-shirt == Help out with our [[T-Shirt]] project.

I added the following section to my `~/wiki/wikiconfig.py` configuration file {{{ # Page Credits --------------------------------------------- # Feel free to add other credits, but PLEASE do NOT change or remove # the following links - you help us by keeping them "as is": page_credits = [ 'MoinMoin Powered', 'Python Powered', # Optional credits: # if you think it can be maybe misunderstood as applying to content or topic of your wiki, # feel free to remove this one: 'GPL licensed', 'Hosted by HCoop', 'Registered with gandi.net', # if you don't need/want to check the html output, feel free to remove this one: # 'Valid HTML 4.01', ] }}} You can see the results in the footers in [[http://wiki.sabmagfaq.org/|SabMagWiki]]. AFAICT, you can change this for everyone in the file `/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/MoinMoin/config/multiconfig.py`. In the `page_credits` variable add: {{{ 'Hosted by HCoop', }}} /!\ Beware the commas needed at the end of each credit. --[[pi3832|Mike Freeman]] ---- CategoryNeedsWork
