fatal error getID
I installed the extension but when I use it I get
 * Fatal error: Call to a member function getID on a non-object in /home/kickmysi/public_html/techwiki/includes/SkinTemplate.php on line 408


 * To be able to give any advice I need more info such as your EmailArticle configuration settings and MediaWiki version. --Nad 21:21, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I have installed it successfully on MW 1.10.0 without problems. My file structure was:


 * --Zven 21:25, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Media Wiki Version MediaWiki: 1.10.0 include ("$IP/extensions/EmailArticle/EmailArticle.php"); $wgEmailArticleGroup = "**"; $wgEmailArticleContactsCat = ""; $wgEmailArticleCss = "EmailArticle.css"; $wgEmailArticleAllowRemoteAddr = ""; $wgEmailArticleAllowAllUsers = "false"; $wgEmailArticleToolboxLink = "Send to email"; $wgEmailArticleActionLink = "email"; $wgPhpMailerClass = "";

blank page, no email
I installed extension as well according to all of the instructions outlined and the extension will not send email. It goes to a blank page when I hit submit. Any suggestions email me at drclinks@gmail.com. -Mike
 * Is the normal mediawiki mail functionality is working such as password confirmation or watchlist changes? --Nad 00:29, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
 * peblusto says: this would be a perfect extension ... if i could get it working!  but we also get a blank page when clicking send, and there's no outgoing email, yet other email works from the wiki, including "e-mail user". i also note that this extension only permits building a page send form for users who have confirmed their email address (doh!) otherwise it displays "...permission denied" at the bottom of the form. here's my localsettings.php lines:

any clues? has anyone seen this "blank page, no email send" problem and resolved it? thanx peblusto 20:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * There seems to be a bug preventing the pseudo-groups ("*" and "user") from working. I'll try and fix that soon, but in the mean time, you can set the group to "" to allow anyone, or a real group. --Nad 22:13, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

ea_autherror
I installed according to instructions, including the phpmailer class. I get an  when trying to send an email with empty string as $wgEmailArticleGroup. Also, how can I add aditional groups to the system to send email only to those people? Manually added groups work for the permissions but not as recipient. Also, the Article title is empty in the form and email ("" article sent from Elixir Wiki) - Oliver


 * I found some minor bugs which should fix those problems, try the new 1.0.3 version --Nad 07:54, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

User and * Groups
Hi - this extension doesn't work for me unless I set $wgEmailArticleGroup to ' ' ; - when I try 'user' or even '*' it says permission denied, though I am logged in as a bureaucrat and sysop. Gary Kirk 14:37, 24 August 2007 (UTC)


 * The "user" and "*" groups are virtual groups and aren't allowed as special-page permissions. The "user" group is allowed to be used for selecting recipients though and will send the article to all registered users. --Nad 11:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

MySQL errors in 1.11
Having upgraded to MW 1.11 I tried this extension (which worked fine in 1.10).

I went to: http://mywiki.local/index.php?title=Special:EmailArticle&ea_title=Main%20Page (and other articles as well) and each time was greated with these two error messages:

Warning: mysql_fetch_row: supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/mywiki/extensions/EmailArticle/EmailArticle.php on line 120 Warning: mysql_fetch_row: supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/mywiki/extensions/EmailArticle/EmailArticle.php on line 159

I echo'd out the select statements that were being sent and saw that it was as follows:

SELECT cl_from FROM `categorylinks` WHERE cl_to = 'Contacts' ORDER BY cl_sortkey SELECT page_id FROM `page` WHERE page_title REGEXP('\.css$') ORDER BY page_title

My PHP version hasn't changed (5.2.0-8), neither has MySQL (5.0.41).

Email sending still works, however.


 * I'm about to do the upgrade to 1.11 on mine too so I'll be able to look in to that soon. --Nad 21:49, 12 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Working fine in MW1.11 now ;-) --Nad 12:14, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Suggestions
Can this extension be given the option of stripping out the [edit] links that appear in the emails? Unfortunately this makes the extension a little useless for our environment.


 * You can add to the text message part of the form, or you could remove them from the CSS you use --Nad 21:47, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
