Little snippets of configuration to add to LocalSettings.php...

To add any of them:

  • sudo vim /var/www/wiki/LocalSettings.php

Uploadable File Types

search for $wgFileExtensions

If you don't find it, you can add it.

on my wiki, it looks like:

#########################################
# Uploadable File Types
#########################################
$wgFileExtensions = array( 'png', 'gif', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'pdf', 'epub', 'ino', 'c', 'cpp', 'h', 'zip', 'gz', 'mp3', 'txt' );

You likely don't want ino, c, cpp, h

Open external links in new window

#########################################
# Open external links in new window.
#########################################

$wgExternalLinkTarget = '_blank';

InterWiki Links

#########################################
# InterWiki configuration
#########################################

// To grant sysops permissions to edit interwiki data
$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['interwiki'] = true;

// To create a new user group that may edit interwiki data
// (bureaucrats can add users to this group)
# $wgGroupPermissions['developer']['interwiki'] = true; // delete the comment indicator # as appropriate

See InterWiki Linking for a little bit more detail
