Add image on mediawiki

Question

I run my own mediawiki, with file uploads disabled, but I want to put an image in there. How do I do it? I've tried:

[[File:image_filename.png]]

But wherever I put image_filename.png, it doesn't seem to be right. Which folder should the image go in? I can put it there via FTP, I just need to know where the bloody thing goes.

Thanks.

Answer 1

If you want it from FTP upload it in the main folder and for the image type

<img src="image_name.jpg>

Answer 2

Add the following lines to your LocalSettings.php file:

$wgGroupPermissions['user']['upload'] = false;

$wgGroupPermissions['uploadaccess']['upload'] = true;

Then REMOVE the following line from LocalSettings.php:

$wgEnableUploads = false;

Then add your admin account to the uploadaccess group. I have done this to my own MediaWiki page.
