Extension talk:Data Transfer

I have attempted to install the Data Transfer Extension, but when trying to go to the View XML page I get the following error: "Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach in C:\mediawiki\extensions\DataTransfer\specials\DT_ViewXML.php on line 189". This error is printed 7 times. The page looks fine below the errors. Is there an easy fix? Jascraig 12:17, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for the bug report. I think I know the problem - you have some pages that don't belong to any category, and Data Transfer wasn't expecting those. There's an easy fix, which I'll add to the next version of the extension. Yaron Koren 14:28, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Yaron, Thanks, that fixed the problem. Now I'm having problems when I click Submit on the View XML page, instead of getting the XML I expect, I'm redirected back to my Wiki Main Page.  I am going to try and diagnose this locally, but if you have any ideas what could be causing this I would appreciate the information.  Thanks for the quick response.

About dt_xml_* messages
I'm a translater in translatewiki.net. dt_xml_* software messages such as dt_xml_namespace are used in xml outputs as names of elements or attributes. They are, however, translatable. When you export xml files in some wiki, they can't be imported in different language wikis because of lacking portability of xml outputs. Is this intentional? --fryed-peach 15:01, 16 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, Data Transfer was never meant to help with transferring pages from one wiki to another, since Special:Export and Special:Import already handle that; it's meant only for transferring data with non-wiki systems; so the tags can say anything. Yaron Koren 16:19, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
