Extension talk:Form

Oki why dont extensions work with ipbwiki..
I have tried all the forms in here ,semantic too, trying to get them to work with ipbwiki and none seem to work with it as ipb+wiki integration changes core files during installing. BUT when i run it with a pure wiki it runs great. To bad.

Why not Semantic Forms?
Hi Evan,

It's great to see another form extension on MediaWiki platform - it means there is a need for regular, non-wiki users to contribute.

I wonder why you chose to create new extension and not using Semantic Forms, for example?

I use it quite successfully for my Tech Presentations project and would be happy to share my experience with you.

Work only on MW >= 1.11
Due to wfLoadExtensionMessages defined only since 1.11. --Hugoyar 11:57, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Error in MW 1.13.1
I got this error: Messages file for extensions Form is not defined

Apparently fixed by changing Line 38 in SpeicalForm.body.php to: wfLoadExtensionMessages( 'SpecialForm' );

Problem in mediawiki 1.13
I'm trying to install this extention into my mediawiki and can't seem to get it to work.

I added the line into the LocalSettings.php file, checked special pages it appears as Special:Form

I created a page MediaWiki:Sample-form and a template Template:Sample

I then tried navigating to the page Special:Form/Sample and am recieving an "Internal error" message.

I can't quite figure out why this is. I recive the same error if i try to view Special:Form

Any Ideas why i would get this error?


 * NM I'm an Idoit for not understanding the previous post. after I enabled te $wgExtentionMessage line it told me to it directed me to the same fix as above.
