Thread:Extension talk:ExternalLinks/User rights, open basedir and

Hi Subfader,

first thanks for this great extension!

However, I encountered some issues:
 * It seems the default setting for $wgELuserRight is not 'edit'. If I don't set $wgELuserRight at all even sysop can't see the special page (neither anons nor other user groups). If I set $wgELuserRight to 'edit' in LocalSettings it works fine.
 * I enabled the link checker (by setting $wgELvalidationMode to cURL). If I run a link check the results are returned but I get dozens of the following warnings:
 * Warning: curl_setopt [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when safe_mode is enabled or an open_basedir is set in /var/www/web1388/html/mediawiki_test/mediawiki/extensions/ExternalLinks/SpecialExternalLinks.php on line 462


 * safe_mode is off. Do you know how I can fix this?


 * What does $wgELtoolboxLink do? I set $wgELvalidationMode to cURL and the checkbox to check links appears. It seems I don't need $wgELtoolboxLink to see the checkbox.

Thanks.
