Early problem fixed[]
Copy of message I've just sent to Contact Wikia:
This appeared on the Yugioh Wiki when I clicked "Further results" at the bottom of a table, and I thought it was nothing I should be concerned about. But now I've got it on Familypedia, where we were not getting that problem before:
Permission error Special page
You are not allowed to execute the action you have requested.
Return to Family History and Genealogy Wiki.
The URL says
http://familypedia.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Ask/-5B-5BDeath-20year::1880-5D-5D/-3FFather/-3FMother/-3FAge-20at-20death
I've just got the same result when trying to use Special:Ask in the title of this forum.
I was wanting to find which Familypedia people died in 1880, a rather basic search. Anyone else get the same when trying to find more info in a table? --- Robin Patterson (Talk to me) 06:15, March 15, 2011 (UTC)
- This was a bug that has been fixed. In other news, we're going to try a technical backend change to see if it A) fixes the form issue on this site and B) just improves overall query improvement. The backend change is putting the SMW-related tables on its own database cluster. This should alleviate database memory usage. --daNASCAT (help forum | blog) 21:00, March 15, 2011 (UTC)
Thanks, Tim. My "Contact" message received this reply (12 hours ago):
Changed in the newer versions of SMW, you now need the smwallowaskpage right to use Special:Ask. This has been corrected in the code last week, and will be going live with this week's release (sometime today/tomorrow)

Images[]
This conversation may be of interest now. We used to have images on our tree pages. Maybe we could try again?
Hi, maybe this can help: https://sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Issue/2009

Hi,
I have the category 'Thing', with form field 'Picture', with the semantic property 'ThingHasPicture'. Input type = 'Text', parameters 'uploadable, image preview', semantic property type = 'text'. All configured via Page Schemas.
I changed the Thing template to show the image, as follows (which works):
- [[file:{{{Picture}}}|thumb|{{{Picture}}}]].
Now I want to have an #ask query, and one column showing the image (as thumbnail). So I tried: {{#ask: [[Category:Thing]] | ?Name | ?ThingHasPicture }}
However, this doesn't work. What should I do?
Kind regards,
Jacob Vos

Here, for those of you who don't subscribe to that mailing list, is the latest posting in that conversation:
Hi Jacob
I have just got it working on the SMW Sandbox. It is as I thought, yesterday I was doing it from memory. But you can see it working in the sandbox.
The initial page can be found at
This is then called in a #ask query on this page
I hope that helps.

Code for the image page is :
An image taken in Regensburg in Germany, taken during the Semantic MediaWiki Conference 2018. [[Fichier:Regensburg.jpg|néant|vignette|600x600px|this is a test image]] {{#set: Has country=Germany |Picture=[[Fichier:Regensburg.jpg|néant|vignette|300x300px|this is a test image]] |Has city=Regensburg }} [[Category:Category 20201224]]
Code for that second link is :
{{#ask: [[Category:Category 20201224]] [[Has country::Germany]] |?Has city=City |?Picture=Picture |format=table }}
And it looks like this:
Some of our pages already do that sort of thing. I want us to be able to do it again on tree pages. Charlemagne/tree used to look great, a good example to show Familypedia off. --- Robin Patterson (Talk) 03:42, December 24, 2020 (UTC)
