Extension talk:TalkHere

Is this extension being used anywhere? Or has anyone tried it out yet? --198.70.22.217 14:25, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

I couldn;t get it go. I installed the extension into the extension folders and added the require_once line but that seems to break as the wiki now is just a blank page (syntax error maybe) with no error message or anything UPDATE - seems to have been a permission problem. Changed permissions and fixed.

MW 1.9.3
On MW 1.9.3 this extension work good. Thanks to author!!! Here is russian translation: $messages['talkhere-title']= '$1'; $messages['talkhere-headtext']= ''; $messages['talkhere-foottext']= 'Вы можете оставить свои комментиии к этой статье в нижней части страницы. Администратоы этого сайта не несут ответственность за содержание комментариев к статьям расположенным на сайте.'; $messages['talkhere-talkpage']= 'Страница Обсуждение'; $messages['talkhere-notalk']= '\'\'(Комментарии пока отсутствуют)\'\''; $messages['talkhere-addcomment']= 'Добавьте Ваш комментарий';

$messages['talkhere-beforeinput']= 'Добавьте Ваш комментарий ниже.'; $messages['talkhere-afterinput']= ''; $messages['talkhere-afterform']= '';

$messages['talkhere-loading']= 'Загрузка модуля редактирования...'; $messages['talkhere-collapse']= 'Скрыть модуль редактирования';

Suggestion
You could add option to hide the discussions and to reply too. Is it in your TODO list? Show date and time and a field to add email will be great too Lleoliveirabr 18:09, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
 * hm... a bit of javascript to hide the discussion would be pretty easy i guess. Maybe I'll add it.
 * The problem with the more advanced requests is that TalkHere currently doesn't generate the discussion output itself, nor does it generate the edit for: it simply recycles the existing functionality for article display and edit page. It's not easy to hook in there to change things around without having to rewrite all.
 * reply-to links are only possible per-section, and even then, they are a bit tricky (they would basically be section-edit links, but not quite, i guess). Input-fields are even harder to implement (the editpage code is not very felxible), and there would also have to be a way to assign some type of template to be used to generate the wikitext to add to the talk page. Because, again, all this basically does is inline the talk page into the article page. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 19:16, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Great extension, small suggestion
This was just what I was looking for, thanks for making it.

Would it be possible to add a magic word just like to control its usage on a page by page level?

I know I can already choose which namespace it's enabled in, I have it enabled on NS_USER, but some might want to control on what pages it's used, so a magic word, for example __NOTALKERE__ would be a nice addition. ILTK 18:49, 4 June 2007 (UTC)


 * The idea isn't bad... but I havn't fiddeled with magic words like that before, so i don't really know how tricky it would be. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 11:18, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Missing Permissions
Great extension! There's a minor bug(?) though: The editor will show up even if the user lacks permission to edit the (talk) page, thus suggesting he can type away - this might be a significant annoyance... -- FND 09:01, 16 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Sounds like a bug :) I'll try to look into it when i have time. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 11:19, 4 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Fixed in r23996 - it was a bug in Title->userCan('edit'). This should be included in MediaWiki 1.11 I think. -- All the best, Nickj 09:14, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Edit (Section) Links
Would it be possible to add EditSection links to TalkHere areas? That way it would be easy to respond to existing discussions. Alternatively (or additionally), an Edit link for the talk page (e.g. next to the regular link to the talk page) would help. -- FND 19:15, 18 June 2007 (UTC)


 * the trouble is that i'm simply inlining a normally rendered talk page. I don't have control over how the edit links are created. The edit links would work (they are actually there, just hidden using CSS), but they would be confusing to non-wiki-folx, because after editing, you would not return to the article, but to the talk page. finding your way back isn't obvious.
 * An edit link to the talk page would be possible, but would suffer from the same problem. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 11:15, 4 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I've updated the main page accordingly - thanks for the info! -- FND 11:52, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Do extra namespaces work?
I have a couple extra namespaces defined, do I need to define constants for those somewhere?

For example I have a namespace called Forum added to $wgExtraNamespaces array, but if I try something like:

$wgTalkHereNamespaces = array( NS_USER, NS_FORUM );

TalkHere doesn't show up on pages in the Forum namespace.

 * If you want to use constants, you have to define them, yes. Otherwise, just use the namespace number directly. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 11:12, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Examples / Screenshots
It would be nice, if there are some sample sites to see the extension in action... --89.217.13.71 13:29, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
