| Parser function to display results of the list | 1 | 01:31, 1 August 2011 |
I am unable to delete the watchlist group I created after it got hosed up. It got hosed by me deleting a page that contained properties I was watching. Restoring the page didn't fix it. Internal server error on Semantic Watchlist page. I had to stop watching the group in order to see the Watchlist page again.
Is this normal behavior?
It's probably normal in the sense that this is happening for everyone, but it definitely ought to get fixed :) Right now the extension is still very much in beta stage and it needs a pile of polishing and more testing to become stable. Unfortunately I myself do not have any time I can spend on this right now.
We thought having a parser function such as #swl might come in handy, so that the results of the watch list can be shown somewhere else. {{#swl: ...}} could show the results of the current user in an portal or the user page together with other data collected without having the switch to the watch list itself.
A parser function that displays changes for the current users seems odd, because parser functions are usually placed in pages, which are usually cached, ie can't display "current" stuff. Could have some smart integration with pages in the User NS though, or you could have a special page for this kind of stuff. Lot's of possibilities, all which can be implemented using the API modules SWL provides. For this you'd need action=semanticwatchlist.
