Manual talk:$wgEnableScaryTranscluding

I can't get these to work at all. I'm using MediaWiki 1.9.3 with PHP 5.2.1. Whenever I try to include an external template, I get an error message that looks like this:
 * [Template fetch failed for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:User_en?action=render; sorry]

I don't think I'm the only person with this problem. I've googled the phrase "Template fetch failed for" and have found several other wikis with this problem as well. The setup for this feature is so simple and so straightforward -- I can't imagine how I could be doing it wrong. - Big Brother 1984 08:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
