Extension talk:SearchLog

I get the error:
 * Fatal error: Call to a member function getID on a non-object in /home/[red]/includes/SkinTemplate.php on line 311

After installing and running the script on MW 1.7.1 at http://arborwiki.org/city/Special:SearchLog. Not sure if this is an extension bug, or something messed up on my end.
 * Unfortunately it seems that this extension has a bug which is preventing it from working on 1.7.x and earlier. I haven't been able to figure out a solution so far, I'll let you know if I figure it out. --Nad 11:48, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Restricting access to the page
What code would be added to the extension file in order to restrict access to the Special:SearchLog page to bureaucrats only? --Porplemontage 02:02, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I've added a global in the latest version $wgSearchLogGroup which can be set to a group to restrict access --Nad 05:42, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I've set this global in my setup, but Special:SearchLog is still visible to everybody. It should be something like $wgSearchLogGroup = 'bureaucrat'; # restrict viewing to a particular group by setting this, yes?  I can't see anything else that I might be doing incorrectly. --Emufarmers 12:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The global should be set after the include line in yout localsettings, not changing the actual script, but it still should have worked... I'll look in to it. --Nad 20:46, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The global is in the script itself by default, but setting it in LocalSettings.php after the include didn't help either. --Emufarmers 12:19, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Have you been able to find where the problem is with access not being limited by group? I love the extension, but I really need the search data to be private! (And the readout is so nice that I'd rather not give it up.) Emufarmers 12:53, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * "bureaucrat" didn't work for me, only "sysop" worked, if sysop doesn't work for you either, let me know what version mediawiki version you're running so I can check it out in more detail? --Nad 00:25, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I've tried setting it to "sysop" both in the extension file and in LocalSettings.php, and neither works. I'm on 1.10.0.  If it only works for you when it's set as "sysop," then you might want to look at how other extensions handle group access control—every other extension I've used where there's a group access restriction has worked for any group, even a custom one (renameuser, CheckUser, et cetera).  I'm no good with coding, though, so I probably can't help you further.  I can give you a link to my site in private (if you enable wiki emailing here, or whatever) if you think it would help, though.

 * The problem is I don't really know what I can change to try and fix it, all my special page extensions just use a template which is all the normal special page code. I have some other special pages which don't show up at all in some wiki's but do in others and it seems to be independent of the mediawiki version! I'll look into it some more soon and see if I can figure it out. --Nad 21:02, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorting in Search Log
I see that in the "working example" there is possibility of sorting on keywords or usage count. In the extension I've downloaded, however, there is no sorting. It is a build-in feature of MW 1.10 (I'm using 1.8.3) or some other extension I'm not aware of? -- Khitrenovich 10:05, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
 * There are some good Javascript sortable table components, we've been using the one in this example, but will soon be changing to JavascriptToolbox because it also allows filtering like a spreadsheet. --Nad 06:37, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
