This page used the Structured Discussions extension to give structured discussions. It has since been converted to wikitext, so the content and history here are only an approximation of what was actually displayed at the time these comments were made.
I'm using this script to transfer pages. It works great for pages that already exist on both wikis, but when it tries to transfer a page to the destination wiki that doesn't exist it crashes with the message, "ERROR: An error occurred for uri https://server/wiki2/api.php". The bot account is able to create new pages. Is this a constraint of the transfer.py script? Revansx (talk) 20:14, 11 September 2020 (UTC) Reply
- Is it because they are "New" pages on the source wiki? If so, how can I overcome this? Revansx (talk) 20:29, 11 September 2020 (UTC) Reply
