Re: Recorder 6 Wiki

Mike Weideli, John van Breda and I would like to make better use of the Wiki for providing up-to-date information about Recorder 6 – see the link on http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/default.aspx?page=4592 . Unfortunately resources are unlikely to be available to bring all the information up-to-date but it should give us an easily accessible repository for anything we can provide. Our policy will be to date stamp things we add so that users will have an idea of how up-to-date it is likely to be.

There is a technical problem with the Wiki and we are looking for someone to help us sort it out. John says it should only be about a days work for someone who knows how to do it. If so, we should be able to pay for the work. Mike has done a temporary fix but we need a permanent solution. Can you help or do you know anyone who can?

The following is the information we have on the problem:

You need to upgrade the MediaWiki instance. You can also set the server to use the older version of PHP, but this should only be considered a short term measure. Here's the Clook kb article explaining why:
