Extension:RecentPages/ru



The RecentPages extension adds a list of recently added pages to the current page. It can also do random pages. If used in conjunction with CustomNavBlocks can be used to add a side-panel of recent additions to the wiki. The  option will pull back recent pages from all the namespaces specified in $wgContentNamespaces. Pages that are redirects will be excluded.

Note that the only options you have for the random pages are mainspace and all content namespaces. There are technical reasons for that having to do with how RandomPage is set up. Basically, it defaults to the content namespaces, and there's probably some way to override that, but I got tired of fooling with it. A makeshift solution is just to pull everything and then filter it, but that gets pretty expensive if you're dealing with a small subset of the content pages, and it doesn't work at all if it's not a subset of the content pages (e.g. the User space is generally not a content namespace). However, mainspace is usually a pretty big subset of the content namespaces, so I left that as an option.

$wgRecentPagesDefaultMinimumLength
Minimum page length of a randomly-selected article

$wgRecentPagesDefaultLimit
Default number of articles to pull back

$wgRecentPagesMaxAttempts
Maximum number of attempts to get a unique random article

$wgRecentPagesDisableOtherNamespaces
Due to a glitch, leave this set to true; it has something to do with selecting random pages. It's probably some feature that doesn't work yet.

$wgRecentPagesDefaultSort
Shall we sort by default?

FAQ

 * How do I control the order in which pages in the new pages feed show up? I want to move one of them up/down in the sequence, either to draw attention to it, or deflect attention from it, or whatever.
 * There probably should be an easier way to do this, but currently all you can do is, to bring something to the top, delete the page and the undelete it. If you want to bury something, you have to create a bunch of new articles. Ideally, there would be some very intuitive and easy-to-use GUI that would just let you drag and drop the items where you want them in the list. This being MediaWiki, you know it's not going to be that easy. If this feature is implemented, it'll probably be done by, say, a MediaWiki: page that lets you add an offset changing the position of pages in the list.


 * But then it'll be necessary to figure out, should it be done by page title or page ID? If the former, then there will be problems if the page is moved, unless it's programmed to look at the page move log to see where it was moved to. If the latter, then there will be problems if the page is deleted and undeleted, because then it'll have a new title.


 * There are a couple ways to implement this; one would be to use the (similarly to BedellPenDragon); another would be to create a whole new table to store the info of what should be excluded or included.


 * Sometimes new pages are spammy or otherwise not up to quality standards. How do I make it so that it skips the first few newest pages?
 * It would be easy to add a parameter to make it do this, but I haven't done it yet.

Проблемы и их решение

 * No pages are showing up
 * Is $wgRecentPagesDefaultMinimumLength set so high that it's excluding all the pages?


 * It doesn't work when I use
 * This is a glitch; work around it by leaving out the namespace. It defaults to main.
