Impossible to create pages after upgrade to mediawiki 1.18.2

Good afternoon, I am experiencing problems with new page creation in my mediawiki installation, I upgraded from 1.16 to 1.18.2. When I click on "create new page", I am redirected to the "edit" section of the current page - for example, if I am in the "test" category and I wish to add a new page under this category, when I click to "Create new", it's shown the box in which I can edit the "test" category. Have you got a fix for it?

Thank you in advance,

Lorenzo

There's no "Create new" link in the place you describe in default MediaWiki.

What extensions are you using? Did they get updated with the rest of MediaWiki? Do you have any special code in your wiki to make these links happen? (Including a link to your wiki, if possible, would also be helpful)

Do you use a custom skin? If so, do you think it adds such a link?

Well, that is quiet the right behavior of MW, isn't it If you are on a page that has no content accually (like that category page) you will be invited to add content to it by clicking on "create...". For creating a new page IN a category just enter the name of the page in the search line, click on "create a page with name xyz"( or whatever it shows in your language), create the page and add a Category:myCategory tag add the end.

That is the correct behaviour, but that is not what the original poster is describing.
