Extension talk:AmazonPlus

Using templates
Is the syntax blablabla correct ? It doesn't seem to work in my templates... Thanks ! --Alagache 04:31, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Fixed in 0.4.0. -- Skiz zerz  21:25, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Seems to be an issue in 0.5.2. See example on my wiki. --Short Circuit 05:15, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

Fix
I fixed it, at least as far as MediaWiki 1.16 is concerned. (The relevant changes for earlier versions of MediaWiki can be induced from Manual:Tag extensions.  Find the efAmazonPlusRender function in AmazonPlus.php. Change the function declaration from:

to

Now find the lines:

Replace them with:

That seems to be working for me. --Short Circuit 21:06, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Fatal error Line 27 php
I just installed this extension, and got an error message. Fatal error: Call to undefined function wfinigetbool in /home/debatrix/public_html/extensions/AmazonPlus/AmazonPlus.php on line 27 Has anyone seen this, how do I fix it? --Jake4d 01:50, 6 June 2009 (UTC) (using v1.14)
 * I think I see what I need to do, here, but I cannot find the php.ini file, and I don't know how to allow Mediawiki to use the "ini_set function" can anyone help? --Jake4d 02:18, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, you need to be running mediawiki version 1.12 or later. The 1.11 on the extension page was a typo and has now been fixed :) -- Skiz zerz  16:06, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I am running 1.14 and still can't get it to work. Does it only work with 1.12? --Jake4d 23:35, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Are you installing it according to the instructions listed on the extension page? Note that this is a part of mediawiki, so accessing the AmazonPlus.php file directly in your browser won't work, you need to use the &lt;amazon&gt; tag in the wiki itself to use the extension. -- Skiz zerz  00:00, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I am installing it by the instructions, but when I "include" it in my localsettings.php I get a fatel error on the wiki, so I have been unable to try using the tag. --Jake4d 01:52, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Try re-downloading the files for 1.14 then, since there is something messed up with your wiki. -- Skiz zerz  13:51, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I will try again tonight. --Jake4d 00:22, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Issue fixed in 0.5.2 -- Skiz zerz  17:27, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Can't Connect to Amazon Webservices
I've tried everything I can think of - SimpleXML installed, AWS keys are right, but still get: Error: Could not retrieve data from Amazon!

No idea what the issue is, perhaps amazon changed their URL for retrieval?
 * That is likely, Amazon likes to change things up every now and again. I'll look into this issue, but I cannot guarantee a speedy reply. -- Skiz zerz  04:11, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I've found this can happen if you're using Adblock. It depends on which filter set you use, of course. --Short Circuit 04:45, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I am also having this problem, and I'm not using Adblock

Internal and External links
I've noticed that I can't put any type of link within the tags. If I do a link like, Google, it just shows the html to the link, and if I try to link to a page on the wiki itself, like User:Smile Lee it shows nothing. Is there a way to fix it? Smile Lee 01:58, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
