Extension is empty :(

 * Dunno if it's a boy or girl but it's here now. ;) --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 14:31, 15 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I go to inspect ;) --StasR (talk) 23:07, 15 June 2015 (UTC)

Update from 1.24
Will this extension use old data statistic? Or it was removed from database by maintenance script?

BTW: Download link is broken.


 * If I am not mistaken the old core tables are still preserved when upgrading to 1.25 so the data should still be there. This is the zip for MW 1.25.x at the moment. Cheers --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 11:59, 17 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks. It's work, but with Extension:DynamicPageList (third-party) and popularity sorting give this:


 * SELECT page_namespace,page_title FROM `wiki_page` INNER JOIN `wiki_categorylinks` AS c1 ON ((page_id = c1.cl_from) AND (c1.cl_to='Category')) WHERE page_is_redirect = '0' ORDER BY page_counter DESC LIMIT 10


 * 1054 Unknown column 'page_counter' in 'order clause' (localhost)


 * --UksusoFF (talk) 14:08, 17 June 2015 (UTC)


 * I get


 * The DPL extension (version 2.3.0) produced a SQL statement which lead to a Database error. The reason may be an internal error of DPL or an error which you made, especially when using DPL options like titleregexp. Query text is:  Error message is: Unknown column 'page_counter' in 'order clause' (localhost)


 * with DPL, so I think DPL is now incompatible with this extension and needs to be updated. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 16:17, 17 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Ouch, i'm talking about: Extension:DynamicPageList_(Wikimedia) --UksusoFF (talk) 18:03, 17 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Has anyone had any problems with Extension:DynamicPageList (Wikimedia)? --PhotographerTom (talk) 16:41, 18 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, see the line you replied to. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 07:07, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

Undefined method WikiPage::getCount

 * Looks like the AbuseFilter extension is incompatible too I'm afraid. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 18:48, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

A database query error has occurred.
→ Filed as 

Hmm ..., I am a bit puzzled. I upgraded from 1.22.15 to 1.25.1. In a second step I added the HitCounters extension. From the error message I get I come to believe that the former "hit_counter" table was removed at the first step:

A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.

Query: SELECT page_counter AS hits FROM `hit_counter` WHERE page_id = '1' Function: HitCounters\HitCounters::getCount Error: 1146 Table 'myWiki.hit_counter' doesn't exist (localhost)

 * After running "update.php" via the Extension:MaintenanceShell extension this error message vanishes and all the previous hits for pages show up. So I now figured out that core used "hitcounter" and this extension creates "hit_counter" and somehow moves the content over to keep on running. So this issue is invalid. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 16:13, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

HitCounters does not create a table if installed via web updater
→ Filed as 

Actually a follow up to the previous post. I tried to add this extension via the web updated since it is a shared hosing environment however when running the update script no table is created. So I naturally get the same error message as before.

functionality has changed
In core, the  magic word showed the total views for the entire wiki. This extension shows the number of views for the current page. Is that by design? --Ike @ WikiWorks 18:07, 28 June 2015 (UTC)


 * I agree that this should be changed back. Something like  which takes the behaviour you described in your post could be a nice enhancement though. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 18:52, 2 July 2015 (UTC) Ping Paladox: Could this be done somehow?
