Description:
I was understanding that to enable/edit the wiki (my side), that you edit in the LocalSettings.php and was able to get extensions added and skins switched. But then I was looking to get the Visual Editor/Semantic Bundle going and that was requiring Parasoid/Node.js and other stuff that stated it would be best if you were directly online, so thought running on AWS Cloud was the option. (I also attempted Azure & Google Cloud to test)
I was able to make a Wiki page on the cloud but I have no clue where I am supposed to edit/add files like I was in the LocalSettings.php....do they have something separate, do I have to link them somehow (somewhere in localsettings.php? or something else like where it shows The Linux-bitnami-mediawiki page ((I run windows but I was made aware the virtual serer shows linux))??
Sorry for the beginner questions the little experience I have with any code is using LaTex typeset, I am using Visual Studio Code and that isn't much problem, it is what is needed online to connect where that I am all twisted around with. The goal is just a personal wiki for knowledge management but enough customization where I can embed local documents and move stuff around on screen. The hosted wikis that install extensions were less than accommodating when it came to the numerous extensions that I wanted, something as simple as SemanticWiki couldnt but gave me Visual Editor, otherwise I would have been open to that option.
Actual question
If you still add extensions in the C:\Bitnami\mediawiki-1.33.1-0\apps\mediawiki\htdocs\extensions .....and edit the localsettings.php to enable them, what are the changes needed to have it connect to the cloud server?? If it isn't that then where? An example localsettings for AWS would be super helpful if that is the case
Thank you for any help that you can give, I was trying to figure out from the tutorial documentation and youtube channel but I know I am missing something simple on how to put it all together.
