LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_AS_PORTLET
Hello,

I have install this very interresting extension on my Wiki. And I wanted to use the value "LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_AS_PORTLET" for "$wgLanguageSelectorLocation" but it doesn't run. I use a Skin based on Monbook. Only values LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_AT_TOP_OF_TEXT and LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_IN_TOOLBOX can run on my Wiki. I don't know if I have to change some values on LanguageSelector.php?

 * The other options only work with MediaWiki 1.10 and newer. You can add support for this by hacking the SkinTemplate.php file: near the end of the outputPage function, before // execute template, add this:

// original version by hansm if( !wfRunHooks( 'SkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec', array( &$this, &$tpl ) ) ) { wfDebug( __METHOD__ . ': Hook SkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec broke outputPage execution!' ); }
 * well, just this would probably do:

wfRunHooks( 'SkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec', array( $this, $tpl );
 * No guarantee, though. Perhaps just wait a few days for MW 1.10 to come out officially. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 21:04, 6 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your quick help, now I can use this attribute on my Wiki v1.8.3. Sébastien 07:07, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Bug with LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_INTO_TITLE
LANGUAGE_SELECTOR_INTO_TITLE does not work with MediaWiki 1.10alpha (r19865). It just displays the raw HTML data instead of the box itself. The source code of the page contains things like: &lt;span id=&quot;languageselector-box-1&quot; class=&quot;languageselector &quot; style=&quot;&quot;&gt; instead of Please look into the page source in order to see the difference. ;-) I couldn't find out what is going wrong in the extensions. :-( Arnomane 18:06, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Same problem happens with 1.11alpha (r22507) too (SVN checkout from today). So I guess it is not an incompatibility in an older MediaWiki version but a bug in the extension. Arnomane 14:18, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

MediaWiki: 1.11alpha
Extension is broken, at least since r23511.

Invalid NULL return from broken hook wfLanguageSelectorSkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec

LanguageSelector.php, line 215: -       return; +       return true;

fixs this.
