Description Thorsten Staerk 2006-07-09 08:27:18 UTC
Please allow adding '*' to the allowed upload 
files, $wgFileExtensions.

The quality of the mediawiki software urged me to 
switch my homepage www.staerk.de/thorsten to 
mediawiki. Big compliment.
On my homepage, I do not have any users but me, but 
I need to upload my sourcecode files with whatever 
extensions.

My patch allows for adding * to file uploads, it is 
productive on www.staerk.de/thorsten.

Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2006-07-09 14:33:39 UTC
If you need this disable the extension check using the existing 
preferences.
Comment 4 Thorsten Staerk 2006-07-09 15:44:39 UTC
disabling extension check is ignored, see bug 6602
Comment 5 Rob Church 2006-07-09 16:06:11 UTC
Set $wgStrictFileExtensions to false, otherwise MediaWiki will enforce file
extension checking; that warning can't be skipped at runtime, for obvious
security reasons.
