Extension talk:WhoIsWatchingTabbed

Some issues
Once entering a &acion=watch page your in a vicious circle and can't get out of the watching pages. So where ever you link &action=watch.. there should also be a normal page link given. You can combine that with some stats (X) numbers:

&action=watching
I'm not too sure if it's a good idea to display the real names of the users (maybe make it optional). I would prefer it this way:

Subfader is watching X pages

'''&action=watching&user_name
namespace seems redicilous

Help:Formatting is watched by X pages

Please link to the user page from there ;)

URL
Another thing is the URL: Go to Main Page > click watching > click a user > URL is Main_Page&action=watching&user_name=...

Is there no way I can link to the pages I'm watching? Esp. not internally? E.g. Check my watchlist

Great extension idea at all, just needs some tweaks if you want to use it for all users and not just sysops etc wher it might be ok as it is :) --Subfader 19:00, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

The tab
I would prefer if it simplifies and merges with the existing tab: [ watch (3) ] but that might be a problem with the linking since the whole tab is linked and not the text. --Subfader 19:00, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Issues on different Namespaces
I recieved errors on pages with different namespaces "Warning: constant [function.constant]: Couldn't find constant NS_DISKUSSION in <...>\WhoIsWatchingTabbed.php on line 279"

Problem with Who is Watching Statistics page
This extension is exactly what we have been looking for, but I have come across a problem. On the Who is Watching Statistics page, when I select any number other than 10 in the drop down box, I'm taken to a page titled Post. Thus, I am unable to view more than the top 10 results in either category. We are running MediaWiki 1.13.3. Any ideas? Molliewog 21:44, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Problem with Page Titles with Colons and Spaces
We were getting this error: A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

(SQL query hidden)

from within function "Database::select". MySQL returned error "1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 1 (10.107.144.90)" Discovered it was a problem with page titles that have a colon with a space following. For example, "FSWiki: Languages" causes the problem but "FamilySearch Wiki:Known Issues" didn't.  So in the file WhoIsWatchingTabbed.php I changed to which appears two times in the code.  It appears to work on all pages but we are unsure of the ramifications of the code change? Stinger 11:06, 30 March 2009 (MST)
