Extension talk:ShowRealUsernames/Archive 1

Code doesn't seem to work for me. SRUquery throws an exception:

Detected bug in an extension! Hook SRUquery failed to return a value; should return true to continue hook processing or false to abort.

Backtrace:

 * In general, this type of error message is caused by a change in MediaWiki which took place at or before version 1.14a; the easiest fix is to go to the end of whatever routine it's complaining about in the extension (in this case, SRUquery) and add:  Very common to see this when using many old extensions on any of this year's MediaWiki versions, unfortunately. --Carlb 12:15, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

 * NOTE:  I had this problem with MW1.15.5, I found that PHP>5.3.0 also causes this problem, even if function does return a value.   You need to edit code to remove ampersands, thus:
 * function SRUquery( &$pager, &$query ) {
 * becomes
 * function SRUquery( $pager, $query ) {
 * and
 * function SRUrow( &$item, $row ) {
 * becomes
 * function SRUrow( $item, $row ) {
 * becomes
 * function SRUrow( $item, $row ) {

Something wrong and extension is not working

How can one fix this or how to find the reason? Thanks! --Jostar 09:14, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Restricting who sees the Real Names
I only wanted 'crats to be able to see the Real Names, so I altered the  function to add a check for the user having the showrealname right, as shown below:

Then I added the following to my  after the require_once call:

I hope that this is useful (I know it works on MW 1.15.4) - I was tempted to change the documentation on the main Extension:ShowRealUsernames page, but I'll leave that to someone else! -- Phantom Steve /talk &#124;contribs \ 16:45, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * well looking, works fine, should be added to the extension code --Jostar 22:58, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Internationalizartion issues: description and attempting to view ShowRealUsenames.i18n.php
The main file, ShowRealUsenames.php starts with a comment and then says: I think something similar should be done in the internationalization file ShowRealUsernames.i18n.php. Also, the description shown in Special:Version could be internationalized by using a descriptionmsg instead. I have written a descriptionmsg in English and one in Spanish here: and if the description is translated in the ShowRealUsernames.i18n.php page, in the ShowRealUsernames.php file, instead of: It could then be: However, I have not tested the extension with these changes.
