I'm sorry to tell you that your skin is unreadable in Firefox 21 on ubuntu 12.04: the first letter(s) of each line of each menu is (are ?) out of the frame. It looks as if you're using negative absolute positionning (e.g. "left: -38px;") on the menu ... As for ShortURL, it seems to be working more or less on your test wiki but you seem to have something wrong in the template $wgShortUrlTemplate. For instance: http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/q/index.php/Special:ShortUrl/2 is a ShortURL that redirects correctly to http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/q/index.php/Test Likewise http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/q/index.php/Special:ShortUrl/1 redirects to the Mediawiki:Sidebar it seems, and http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/q/index.php/Special:ShortUrl/3 to http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/q/index.php/Test1 on each of these pages there is a link "Short URL" in the toolbox. That link is messed up though. I would suggest that something might have to be fixed in $wgShortUrlTemplate. The Main page does not seem to have that Short URL link, but I don't know if it's a bug or a feature of this extension (Main Page has its own very short url as http://mizugadro.mydns.jp/q/index.php ) Maybe re-run populateShortUrlTable.php ? Hope it helps, Alexis ps: I'm absolutely not related to ShortURL extension, just trying to help a bit with whatever I know ;-) _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
