This is the **archive** for old and probably outdated stuff of the [[symlink farm]].

==== Disabling Plugins for each Animal individually ====
=== Older Version of the Patch (2007) ===
If you want to allow administrators of individual animal wiki to
enable or disable plugins in their animal of your farm, apply the
following simple patch:

<code diff>
diff -r 6c2002b69126 inc/pluginutils.php
--- a/inc/pluginutils.php	Fri Nov 30 14:43:15 2007 +0100
+++ b/inc/pluginutils.php	Fri Nov 30 15:36:46 2007 +0100
@@ -90,6 +90,6 @@ function &plugin_load($type,$name){
   return $DOKU_PLUGINS[$type][$name];
 }
 
-function plugin_isdisabled($name) { return @file_exists(DOKU_PLUGIN.$name.'/disabled'); }
-function plugin_enable($name) { return @unlink(DOKU_PLUGIN.$name.'/disabled'); }
-function plugin_disable($name) { return @touch(DOKU_PLUGIN.$name.'/disabled'); }
+function plugin_isdisabled($name) { return (@file_exists(DOKU_CONF.$name.'.disabled')); }
+function plugin_enable($name) { return (@unlink(DOKU_CONF.$name.'.disabled')); }
+function plugin_disable($name) { return (@touch(DOKU_CONF.$name.'.disabled')); }
</code>

With that patch applied, plugins can still be disabled in the farmer
wiki by creating an empty file ''conf/<pluginame>.disabled'' inside the farmer 
wiki for each plugin, you want to disable (<pluginame> being the name of the plugin to
disable).
<code bash>
touch dokuwiki-farm/conf/<pluginame>.disabled
</code>

==== For the previous 2008-05-05 version ====

If you are using the **previous version** of DokuWiki aka
//DokuWiki-2008-05-05// you should apply the following patch to a
freshly extracted copy of DokuWiki:

<code diff>
diff --git a/inc/init.php b/inc/init.php
--- a/inc/init.php
+++ b/inc/init.php
@@ -9,6 +9,9 @@

+  @include(fullpath(dirname(__FILE__)).'/preload.php');
 
   // define the include path
   if(!defined('DOKU_INC')) define('DOKU_INC',fullpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/../')
.'/');
</code>

=== Old discussion ===
I am running the latest version of DokuWiki with the "old patch" applied. After a few minor modifications on some plugins, I am pretty happy with the final result except the templates. Some of the templates have menu.php in their directories (see incognitek, for an example). I tried do not link lib and copy it and below to the animal lib. The configuration manager still show the templates on the farmer. If I hardcode my personalized template in local.php, some images are recovered but not full CSS information, and the site seems a mess. It is only a minor point. As a workaround, I have duplicate the incognitek template and modified the second copy.

<del>The [[http://mojito.u-strasbg.fr/farm/.hg/patches/farm0|Mojito]]-Website for the old patch seems to be down at this moment and I was unable to find a cached copy anywhere else. Could anyone provide me with a copy?</del> (Never mind, the website is up again.)

I have install a farm, but in the animal, the mediamanager isn't OK. I don't see the media in my animal, but the media of the farm !!! Somebody have an idea ? 

--- //[[forum_a3@afland.info|Junior76]] 2009/09/23 17:11//

It seems that all media files goes to root farm directory data/media instead of animal#/data/media, no matter in which farm did you uploaded the file or with what user (admin or user). So all media files are shared through all animals. I think this is a bug.

It's exactly the problem. Do you know a solution to this "bug" ????

--- //[[forum_a3@afland.info|Junior76]] 2009/09/29 19:20//

Did you find a solution for that ?

--- //[[benjamin.seclier@univ-nancy2.fr|Benjamin]] 2009/10/21 16:20//

I did some debugging and found a solution. Modify your preload.php to the following:

<code php>
$dir = dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']);
if(is_dir($dir . '/conf'))
	define('DOKU_CONF', $dir . '/conf/');
else
{
	$dir = str_replace('lib/exe', 'conf/', $dir);
	if(is_dir($dir))
		define('DOKU_CONF', $dir);
}
</code>

As of the latest version, 2009-12-02 (Mulled Wine), this is all you need to do.

> That's nice, Tommy, exactly what I needed. Since plugins such as acl need 'conf/' too, I added support for 'lib/plugin.*' too. @Josué,Junior76,Benjamin: Note that you have to set the [[config:savedir]] to your animals data folder, see above. I updated this page accordingly. I also added a new patch for plugin management. --- //[[mail@example.org|Mirko]] 2010/04/01 17:22//
