Extension talk:SpecialNamespaces

Extension:Simple_namespaces
For mw version 1.11.0 I ran into trouble that this version checks the return value of hooks and function wfNamespaces didn't return true. changed that locally and would put it into the source as well.

added: return true; (line 276)

cheers, kloshi.

Is the Extension:Simple namespaces relevant (or even usable) on versions of MediaWiki 1.6 or newer? Couldn't edit language/Languages.php. S3Indiana 19:54, 10 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes. It's languages/Language.php --66.102.74.160 17:48, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Hrm. I'm running 1.7.1, and in my languages/Language.php, I can't find anything remotely similar to that code block. The only two instances of "load" are two comments:

"	 * overload this." and "// Preload base classes to work around APC/PHP5 bug"

Did something change? I was able to add the table successfully, however.

I'm trying to change all my "Talk:" pages to "Comments:" and "User_talk:" to "Wall:". I'm assuming this is how I should go about it? --132.162.208.253 17:07, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

ERROR: The namespaces table is empty, or something else went wrong.
When I use the Special:Namespaces, it answers: "The namespaces table is empty, or something else went wrong." That's right, the namespace_names table is entry, but why? Shall I fill it using the mysql console (Sorry about my english)? PiPi


 * PS:It is not a trouble, it is the first open screen when you created the namespace_names table (if wasn't it) and you are not a superuser. PiPi 22. April 2007.

OK, I inserted a test record in namespace_names. I open Special:Namespaces, and the test record is there. But I can't manipulate it, and I can't creating new namespace. What's the matter? PiPi 21. April 2007.


 * Wow, I was a simple user, and not superuser! PiPi 21. April 2007.

Ok, this is my last check-in :) I do'nt know why (I'm not a software developer), but the function call "discard;" in 128. and 181. lines of code was given an error (call to undefined function). I changed this two lines to "$this->discard;" and it works! Did somebody try this extension ever? PiPi 21. April 2007.


 * The two should be interchangeable... and yes, this extension is in use on Unciklopédia and others. --66.102.80.239 00:27, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Not a restricted page
Is there any way to make this page a restricted page that can only be utilized by sysops or above? Right now, it's a special page that anyone can see? Thanks.
