Extension talk:UserLoginLog/Archive

In case this is not obvious, go to your Special:Log/UserLogin page to query the results logged.

Patch for MediaWiki 1.71+
The call for User::newFromId($user->getID); doesn't seem to exist in 1.71, so the fix is to add a function that creates this data... Add this function to the UserLoginLog.php extension code:

function newFromId( $id ) { $u = new User; $u->mId = $id; $u->mFrom = 'id'; return $u; }

Then change the wfUserLoginLogout fuction to look like this:

function wfUserLoginLogout(&$user) { global $wgUserBeforeLogout; $wgUserBeforeLogout = newFromId($user->getID); return true; }

Logout was not working
I found out, that a logout wouldn't create a log entry im my mediawiki, so i changed the two following functions:

function wfUserLoginLogout(&$user) { global $wgUserPage, $wgUserName; $wgUserPage = $user->getUserPage; $wgUserName = $user->getName; return true; } function wfUserLoginLogoutComplete(&$user) { global $wgUserPage, $wgUserName; $log = new LogPage('userlogin', false); $log->addEntry('logout', $wgUserPage, $wgUserName); return true; }

For me it also seems to be the nicer solution for this problem.

Log in / Log out link
Ordinarily when you "log out", the link at the top right changes to "log in".

When this extension is enabled the link still says "log out", even after you already have logged out.

 * While these patches might have patched earlier versions of MediaWiki, neither of them patches version 1.15.1. Still, by installing the unpatched extension into MediaWiki version 1.15.1 the only two problems I've found seem to be as follows:
 * The login/ logout link isn't properly updated upon logout.
 * Logouts are not logged.


 * I hope someone writes a patch that'll work on version 1.15.1 and up. Seems like it was a good extension, but I don't know php well enough to try it myself.

Upgrade for 1.18?
Hi all! $wgMessageCache has been removed completely in version 1.18.0 so the extension doesn't work from 1.18 onwards.

Does anyone have a fix?

Upgrade worked
So I contacted the developer (Aran) who helped with an update. The new files (UserLoginLog.php and UserLoginLog.i18n.php) can be downloaded here: http://svn.organicdesign.co.nz/listing.php?repname=extensions&path=%2FUserLoginLog%2F

I've tested it on my 1.18.1 installation and it works well.

Thanks Aran!
