Error
Using the most recent release I receive the below error. Reverting back to the March 13 2.0 version does not cause this error. I am using the following versions:


 * MediaWiki: 1.6.2
 * PHP: 5.1.2 (apache2handler)
 * MySQL: 5.0.19-nt

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 "". 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 'AND page_is_redirect = 0 ORDER BY r.rev_timestamp DESC LIMIT 0,1' at line 1 (localhost)". Retrieved from "http://localhost/wiki/Forum:Index"

Could this be a bug with the NT version of mysql?

 * Unless you're explicitly setting the namespace to 0 (the main space), there should be no difference in behavior between 2.0 and 2.01, and even then the only difference is that 0 is allowed as an explicit setting. I can't think why that would cause a syntax error in the SQL query.  Are you certain that this is the only change you made? --Algorithm 19:40, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Specifying a non existant namespace causes this error. An error message should be output in this case. -- Xypron 10:24, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Error due to LIMIT
With MySQL - 3.23.58 the following line causes an error: $iCount = 0xFFFFFFFF; // maximum integer value Please, change it to       $iCount = 0x7FFFFFFF; // maximum integer value
 * fixed -- Xypron 10:18, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Error for numeric namespace
When a numeric namespace is specified a SQL error occurs. namespace = 0 if ( is_null($iNamespace) ) has to be changed to if ( !$iNamespace ) -- Xypron 17:34, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Error with medawiki 1.8.2
With

PHP 5.0.4 and Mediawiki 1.8.2.

I have this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function getMaxIncludeSize on a non-object in /var/www/html/includes/Parser.php on line 2716

When I insert the following tags in a page

namespace=Forum category=Name of forum title=Name of forum shownamespace=false addlasteditor=true

Any Suggestions ?


 * The extension was working as recently as MediaWiki 1.8-alpha, but is breaking on more recent versions including MW 1.9


 * See http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8395


 * Commenting out the few lines "if(...getMaxIncludeSize...) return" in includes/Parser.php would indeed allow the extension to work, but that's a kludge of a solution. --Carlb 21:50, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

tCustomTitle
I get this alot with my 1.9: Notice: Undefined variable: tCustomTitle in /usr/local/yR/enterwiki/meta.enterwiki.net/extensions/DPLForum.php on line 263 Notice: Undefined variable: tCustomTitle in /usr/local/yR/enterwiki/meta.enterwiki.net/extensions/DPLForum.php on line 386 I'm trying to hack around a fix for it, but just so you know, you might want to fix whatever weirdness is causing this... &#8465;ilver&#167;&#8465;ide 08:44, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Inputbox prefix variable
This whole extension seems to hinge on the 'prefix=' variable of the inputbox extension - which, oddly enough, doesn't exist. Any idea what's up with that? How can you add the 'prefix' variable to Inputbox? &#8465;ilver&#167;&#8465;ide 08:44, 6 January 2007 (UTC)


 * That's done by another extension, actionCreate (User:Algorithm/actionCreate) --Carlb 02:17, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Blank page
When attempting to add DPLForum to my web site, I get a blank page staring back at me upon hitting "save page". Not even an error. *Sigh* I am running MediaWiki 1.9.3. One of the troubles I am running into, is finding a more centralized and complete documentation of DPLForum. From what I can gather I have to bounce back and forth from here and wikia's "Help:Forums" page in order to understand how to set it up as well as make a few assumptions. DPLForum seems somewhat straight forward but given that I am getting a big-ol' blank page I figure I left out something terribly important. Myotus 22:04, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
