Extension talk:Page Forms

"Minor edit" and "watch" Buttons in form do not work
My settings:

MediaWiki 1.16.1, Semantic Forms (Version 2.2.1), Semantic Forms Inputs (Version 0.4.1), Semantic MediaWiki (Version 1.6), WikiEditor (Version 0.2.0), Vector (Version 0.2.0). When editing a page with a form the buttons don't show up but some html-code like  minor edits Could there be some incompatibility with another extension? Some "neighbor-wiki" of ours does not have this problem, the do have older versions of Semantic Forms and SMW. Thanks --Eilan Ardanos 14:42, 7 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi - that's bad. Could you try temporarily un-including the WikiEditor and/or Vector extensions, and see if the problem persists? My guess is that it's the interaction with one or both of those that's causing it. Yaron Koren 14:45, 7 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for the quick response. I enabled WikiEditor: same problem. Then I enabled Vector: same problem. Then I enabled both: still same problem. Maybe I should enable all my extensions one by one and see if any other extension is causing it. I will try next week again and report my findings. --Eilan Ardanos 15:00, 7 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay, that's helpful. Though I assume you meant "disabled". :) Here's another question: do you have more than one form on your wiki, and if so, does this problem happen for all of them? Yaron Koren 15:44, 7 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh, sorry, I did mean "disabled". I do have more then one form and the problem appears in all of them. --Eilan Ardanos 11:50, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

Unclear includeonly/noinclude behavior for preload
Hi, I would enjoy the 'onlyinclude free text' tag in a form if it would mean that only the freetext is included in the preload of the free text on another form. But that doesn't happen. It seems that only the 'noinclude' tag in a page prevents parts of the page to be included in a preload. Other tags such as includeonly and onlyinclude (why having these two tags anyway?) don't seem to have any effect.

My favorite would be that the 'onlyinclude free text' feature does the trick, because it is easy then to create preload pages with a form that takes care of the semantic properties of that preload page.

Heads-up regarding autoedit and Abuse Filter
This is just a heads-up regarding Extension:AbuseFilter; it seems that if you have a rule setup that will trigger on an autoedit, and which rule either kills an edit OR prompts a notice, an attempt to use #autoedit will fail with "Error: A MediaWiki extension prevented the modification of the target page." I was testing the autoedit functionality when I discovered this, whereas I have a rule setup to notify users who haven't entered edit summaries. I'm not yet sure how to circumvent this problem since it doesn't appear that SF will allow me to specify an edit summary for autoedits, or since AbuseEdit can't differentiate and allow this type of edit.
