Extension talk:WhosOnline/Archive 2

Wish: Permit staying invisible
Hi, thanks for this wonderful extension which works smoothly on our closed 1.23.8 Mediawiki. It's inspiring to see the fellow user's interest. But, sometimes, depending on atmospheric pressure ;-), one might want to log in without being seen. I wonder how to make this possible. Perhaps just through a special URL parameter or so?

Bug in MW 1.24 ?
Hi, there seems to be a little bug for the special page. The does work.

[Fri Dec 12 19:34:56 2014] [error] [client 129.194.30.22] PHP Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to Language::viewPrevNext must be an instance of Title, string given, called in /export/data/portails/fmediawiki/extensions/WhosOnline/WhosOnlineSpecialPage.php on line 84 and defined in /export/data/portails/fmediawiki/languages/Language.php on line 4633, referer: http://edutechwiki.unige.ch/fr/Bases_psychop%C3%A9dagogiques_des_technologies_%C3%A9ducatives

 * The Problem is wfViewPrevNext used in getNavigationBar, Deprecated since 1.19 and removed in 1.24. You should replace getNavigationBar in WhosOnlineSpecialPage.php with this:

function getNavigationBar { global $wgContLang,$wgLang;

$query = ''; $offset = $this->mOffset; $limit = $this->mLimit; $link = $wgContLang->specialpage( 'WhosOnline' ); $atend = $this->countUsersOnline < ( $this->mLimit + $this->mOffset ); // show next link $query = wfCgiToArray( '' ); if( is_object( $link ) ) { $title = $link; } else { $title = Title::newFromText( $link ); if( is_null( $title ) ) { return false; }		}

return $wgLang->viewPrevNext(			$title,			$offset,			$limit,			$query,			$atend); } }

May be not perfect but it work. --79.209.109.156 18:48, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes I can confirm too that the solution above works with MW1.24 (example). Thanx again ! Would be nice if someone who has the powers and the know how could merge it into the Git master :) - Daniel K. Schneider (talk) 10:09, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Update: Tried to get this extension working in 1.23 and received the same error-message, but the above modification is a correct solution to get it working in MW 1.23.

New Bug in Mediawiki 1.24
Hi

Did the change listed above to get the Special Page working. But now I get the following error:

Notice: Undefined variable: link in mediawiki/htdocs/extensions/WhosOnline/WhosOnlineSpecialPage.php on line 88


 * It fixed my issues.  Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 20:34, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Show the online time a user is logged on
Hi, I like the extension, but I'm also interested in seeing how long a user is online, so I made a few modifications, giving me the following output:

Who's online View (previous 50 | next 50) (20 | 50 | 100 | 250 | 500)

161.90.43.138 Online for 0 hours 24 minutes 43 seconds Admin [Admin] Online for 0 hours 34 minutes 8 seconds

Are you interested in the code? Maybe it can be implemented as an extra option so that someone can choose whether or not to show the online time.

Update: Modified it so it can be optional with an extra variable $wgWhosOnlineShowTime.


 * Sharing is caring, so it'd be lovely if you could share your modifications. :-) --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 21:18, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
