How to make Short URL

---

Use the ShortURL builder: https://shorturls.redwerks.org/

In my case: Apache Config:

• This configuration is meant to go the same block as whatever VirtualHost or other directive you have your wiki's DocumentRoot, ServerName, etc... already defined in.
• In other words, add this to both apache conf files:
  • /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
  • /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-le-ssl.conf

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wiki/index.php [L]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?wiki/images/thumb/[0-9a-f]/[0-9a-f][0-9a-f]/([^/]+)/([0-9]+)px-.*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wiki/thumb.php?f=$1&width=$2 [L,QSA,B]

RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?wiki/images/thumb/archive/[0-9a-f]/[0-9a-f][0-9a-f]/([^/]+)/([0-9]+)px-.*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/wiki/thumb.php?f=$1&width=$2&archived=1 [L,QSA,B]

LocalSettings.php. There should be a small block already in there that is similar to this, replace that with these settings to setup the MediaWiki side of the Short URL config.

## The URL base path to the directory containing the wiki;
## defaults for all runtime URL paths are based off of this.
## For more information on customizing the URLs please see:
## http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL
$wgScriptPath = "/wiki";
$wgScriptExtension = ".php";
$wgArticlePath = "{$wgScriptPath}/$1";

## To enable image uploads, make sure the 'images' directory
## is writable, then set this to true:
$wgEnableUploads  = true;
$wgGenerateThumbnailOnParse = false;
