"Bugfixing" Extensions

Extension:Todo_Tasks

Solution for empty Special:Tasklist-Page

The basic issue is that the extension only displays Tasks assgined to the $fullname of a user. So I modified the code in TodoTasks_body.php around line 299 of the original file to:

299. $wgOut->addWikiText(sprintf(wfMsgTL('tasklistbyname'), $fullname));
     

300. /* Show Todo items assigned to full name */
     

301. $wgOut->addWikiText("<dpl> uses=Template:Todo\n notuses=Template:Status Legend\n include={Todo}.dpl\n includematch=/${fullname}/i\n </dpl>");
     

302. /* Show Todo items assgigned to username */
     

303. $wgOut->addWikiText("<dpl> uses=Template:Todo\n notuses=Template:Status Legend\n include={Todo}.dpl\n includematch=/${username}/i\n </dpl>");
     

305. /* Show tasks in progress */
     

306. $wgOut->addWikiText(sprintf(wfMsgTL('tasklistbynameinprogress'), $fullname));
     

307. /* Show in-progress items assigned to full name */
     

308. $wgOut->addWikiText("<dpl> uses=Template:InProgress\n notuses=Template:Status Legend\n include={InProgress}.dpl\n includematch=/${fullname}/i\n </dpl>"); 
     

309. /* Show in-progress items assgigned to username */
     

310. $wgOut->addWikiText("<dpl> uses=Template:InProgress\n notuses=Template:Status Legend\n include={InProgress}.dpl\n includematch=/${username}/i\n </dpl>");
     

I guess that could be handled prettier, if you would change somthing around line 289 ff., where the extension checks for the names.

289.         foreach ($u as $user) {
     

290.             if (!$user) {
     

291.                 $user = $wgUser;
     

292.             }
     

293.             $username = $user->getName();
     

294.             $fullname = $user->getRealName();
     

295.             // FIXME: Notice Undefined offset: 1 in extensions\TodoTasks\SpecialTaskList_body.php on line 306
     

296.             // If GetRealName does not contain one or more spaces.
     

297.             list ($firstname, $lastname) = preg_split('/ /', $fullname);
     

But I am not that deep into PHP.

Solution for redirecting to homepage when displaying projects in Special:TaskListByProject

The problem seems to be a wrong FORM-method call, which is changed as follows:

In the TodoTasks_body.php, you'll find at the end (around line 353 of the original file):

353.         function ValidProjectsForm() {
     

354.                 global $wgOut;
     

356.                 $titleObj = SpecialPage::getTitleFor( "TaskListByProject" );
     

357.                 $kiaction = $titleObj->getLocalUrl();
     

359.                 $validprojects = preg_split('/\s*\*\s*/', getValidProjects(), -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
     

361.                 if( $validprojects ) {
     

362.                         $wgOut->addHTML("<FORM ACTION=\"{$kiaction}\" METHOD=GET><LABEL FOR=project>" .
     

363.                         wfMsgTL('tasklistchooseproj') . "</LABEL>");
     

364.                         $wgOut->addHTML("<select name=project>");
     

366.                         foreach ($validprojects as $vp) {
     

367.                                 $wgOut->addHTML("<option value=\"$vp\">$vp</option>");
     

368.                         }
     

370.                         $wgOut->addHTML("</select><INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE='" . wfMsgTL('tasklistprojdisp') . "'></FORM>");
     

371.                 }
     

372.         }
     

Just change the form method from GET to POST in line 362 (highlighted above) to:

362.                         $wgOut->addHTML("<FORM ACTION=\"{$kiaction}\" METHOD=POST><LABEL FOR=project>" .
