NOCACHE extension

 * I want something simple - extension that creates an extra magicword __NOCACHE__
 * Any page containing the nocache magicword IS never cached by the file caching/mem cache
 * I'm using file caching and DynamicPageList2 - The dynamic lists created by DPL2 are cached and not very dynamic
 * I'm using 1.8.2 on PHP5 and the newest edition of Dpagelist2

$wgExtensionFunctions[] = 'noCache';

function noCache { global $wgHooks, $wgParser; $wgHooks['ParserBeforeStrip'][]= 'disableCache';

}

function disableCache(&$article, &$text, &$strip_state) { $counter = 0; $text = preg_replace( '#__NOCACHE__#', '', $text , -1 , $counter ); if( $counter > 0 ) { $article->mTitle->invalidateCache; } } AzaToth 22:00, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

I'll give this a go :)


 * Thanks, AzaToth! --80686 14:04, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Extension:SelectCategory
Are you planning to release a new version of the SelectCategory extension?

There are some user-contributed bug fixes on the extension page, its talk page and in the bugtracker, and it would be nice if I wouldn't need to maintain my private fork ;-) --Cboltz 22:49, 16 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi! I have actually a much further developed version on my PC, but not all things I have started are functional yet, so I didn't release it. Now as you mention it I should also have a look at the bugtracker to check the contributions... I wasn't aware of that, will have to find out to put a mail address in there so I get notified by Bugzilla. --Manuel Schneider(bla) (+/-) 06:16, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Extension:SelectCategory (2)
Hi,

I wanted to notice you a customization of your extension done here (in the navbox above the "Publier" button).

Changes are :
 * PHP changes to create a ul/li tree and a categorybar (hidden in this site but works fine) managing non-existent categories.
 * Javascript functions to show/hide parts of the tree
 * Some CSS ajustments

Theses changes permit to create a dynamic tree like CategoryTree in order to have as many categories as you want in this tree whit a reasonnable height.

There is some changes to do in order to make it a "standard" extension but it probably may be a good start for an evolution of the extension or to create another one.

If you are interrested about this, you can contact the system admin of this wiki or directly me here.

 * Hi, right now I just see the standard syntax in the article source code and no SelectCategory extension. Have you checked the latest version from SVN? It uses a jQuery Treeview... --Manuel Schneider(bla) (+/-) 19:23, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
 * No, it is not latest version (who is quite new). It is based on version 0.7dev.
 * You should not see . It is strange.
 * You can see a video demo here (who is for kids and for user help but you can see the function running at about 0:50).
 * But perhaps the new 0.8 version is better than what I've done, as I did not try it.
 * Anyway, if you want to have a look on the modified files, you can ask system admin of this wiki.

Extension:SelectCategory - patches in the bugtracker
It looks like you are more responsive here than in the bugtracker ;-) so I'd like to point out two patches from me that you should apply to the SelectCategory extension:
 * $wgSelectCategoryRoot ignored on Special:Upload - bug 24911
 * make $wgSelectCategoryMaxLevel working - bug 27795
 * BTW: when done, you should add $wgSelectCategoryMaxLevel to the documentation ;-)

I'm using both patches in a wiki I maintain - the first one already since 2010-11-08 (0.7dev / SVN r66255), the second since some minutes ;-) after updating to 0.8.

Please also check the other bugreports against SelectCategory - some of them did not see any action since months...
