Difference from Replace Text?
How is this different from Extension:Replace Text? --Jamesmontalvo3 (talk) 03:54, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
 * If you set  this extension will continue to work. The Replace Text extension will however cease operations. --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 10:21, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Fatal error: Call to undefined method getTitle
Hello. I seem to have run into an issue. Firstly, here is my Mediawiki info:

MediaWiki 	1.22.0 PHP 	5.3.13 (cgi-fcgi) MySQL 	5.5.32-log

I tried to install the latest version of the extension ( https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-MassEditRegex ) Upon uploading the new Local Settings, the pages on my wiki do not render and I get this instead: Fatal error: Call to undefined method StrappingTemplate::getTitle in /hermes/waloraweb082/b2665/moo.iamshikiracom/Crea_wiki/wiki/extensions/MassEditRegex/MassEditRegex.class.php on line 549

I know that recently some new changes were committed right? Switching out the $wgtitle with the getTitle method. Am I missing something in my skin that produces this error?

MW 1.23.0
After updating to MediaWIki 1.23.0, an error occurs:

 * r6 does not works with 1.23.0. It looks like old r5 and r4 do. I guess the "REL1_23" were generated by software without human test. --Zoglun (talk) 22:04, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

This breaks the toolbox+ other stuff on Mediawiki 1.24
It breaks most of the Vector skin in 1.24. Replace text appears to do the same thing as this one but without these issues.

Hint on Search wanted
Using the the extension, I would like to add a category to all *.jpg files in the file namespace.

Does someone have a hint for me, how to make the search work?

Thank you for your attention --&#91;&#91;User:Bmrberlin&#124; Bernd M.&#93;&#93; (talk) 06:57, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

Editing Error
Hello,

We're getting the following error whenever we try to edit any pages:

Edit failed:
 * (Pagename) does not exist

This happens regardless of what is entered for the search/replace text. The extension was installed months ago on version 8.0.2 and worked perfectly with no errors; we've only noticed the error recently, and we see it on both 8.0.2 and 8.1.0. For reference, we're running MediaWiki version 1.26.3.

Any help that you may be able to offer is much appreciated. Thank you! -- 24 June 2016


 * Ops, this sounds bad. So what changed in the meantime. Probably you did an upgrade from MW 1.xx to MW 1.26? Since the extension was working before, what was the change? --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 06:30, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
