Thanks
Thanks for the encouragement! I noticed that about midway adding members to the category, but was hoping someone else would take that particular bull by the horns. I spent the better part of today putting things into categories, and I'm a bit tuckered out. Kol tuv, Egfrank 16:21, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

THANK YOU
Thank you, Yaron, for the great extension Replace Text. I'm new to MediaWiki but am having fun getting up and running. I still don't understand caching or optimizing, and I had just begun to look for bots, knowing that I needed a way to clean up the text in my recipe wiki. I still don't know what a bot is, but along came your extension just in time. I "think" in terms of "search and replace," anyway, so your Replace Text extension filled my need. I have only begun using it and am watching how it seems to work as a cron job, and I still don't know what causes the job to apparently start and then stop and then start again, and how my logging in (or trying to) or logging out (or trying to) affects the background processes. But Replace Text is chugging away right now, and I can find other things to do until it's finished. I see that others seem to think that the replace operations are nearly instantaneous, but I think they're getting that impression simply from the "done" message, while the process actually continues in the background. But it's all good, and, again, I thank you very much for your contribution. _Brian7632416 02:03, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Another big thanks
Have found your semantic googlemaps extension to be easier to use than the traditional non semantic googlemaps. Brilliant stuff. Many thanks from http://www.everyoneshome.org.uk for the great documentation and implimentation of this powerful extension! :)


 * Hi, thanks. Robert Buzink did about half the work, but since he's not doing MediaWiki programming any more, I guess I can take the credit. :) I'm looking forward to seeing your site launched. Yaron Koren 14:08, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

ReplaceText is not replacing :-(
ReplaceText ist the extensions I was looking for. I need a little hint to get it doing its job. Please help me there:.

Problem with Semantic Forms
I keep getting this issue:

Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to Article::__construct must be an instance of Title, null given, called in /homepages/16/d208095195/htdocs/matt/mtpwiki/extensions/SemanticForms/includes/SF_Utils.inc on line 45 and defined in /homepages/16/d208095195/htdocs/matt/mtpwiki/includes/Article.php on line 50

I am trying to set up a form which will use your one-step method of creating a page title, however it doesn't want to work. I'd appreciate any help you can give. You can find me on Wikipedia at w:user:mwilso24 or email me at mwilson@musicaltheatreproductions.ca


 * What version of SF are you using? My guess is that it's a relatively old one, and that upgrading will fix the problem. Yaron Koren 00:09, 2 March 2009 (UTC)


 * SF 1.5.3, I downloaded it today. --Mwilso24 01:02, 2 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Weird. What does your form's "info" tag look like? Yaron Koren 01:19, 2 March 2009 (UTC)


 * The form pulls from two different templates. As I only produce 2 shows per year, there will be no conflict or duplicate file names. I really appreciate your help with this. --Mwilso24 12:46, 2 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Wow, I have no idea. Can you try to duplicate the problem on scratchpad.referata.com? Yaron Koren 17:14, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
