ifUserCan bugfix
-	public function ifUserCan(&$parser, $action, $title, $then, $else = '') { return $title->userCan($action) ? $then : $else; } +	public function ifUserCan(&$parser, $action, $title, $then, $else = '') { $oTitle = Title::newFromText( $title ); return $oTitle->userCan($action) ? $then : $else; } otherwise it will crash as title is simple string

doesn't work in MW 1.13
Fatal error: Call to a member function closeAll on a non-object in /sites/jewage.org/wtest/extensions/SimpleSecurity/SimpleSecurity.php on line 295

The call to closeAll fails because $wgLoadBalancer has been removed from this version of MW. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgLoadBalancer
 * I've done it a simpler way now that intercepts database requests without needing to deal with the load balancer. I'll update it soon, but have to finish the category and namespace permissions first. --Nad 11:58, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

errors with 1.10.1
Notice: Undefined variable: DBtype in /var/wwwdata/applications/mediawiki/extensions/SimpleSecurity/SimpleSecurity.php on line 63 This is just php being pedantic. Warning: preg_replace_callback [function.preg-replace-callback]: Unable to call custom replacement function in /var/wwwdata/applications/mediawiki/extensions/SimpleSecurity/SimpleSecurity.php(416) : eval'd code on line 4 Not too sure what's going on here. Database error A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

SELECT rev_page FROM `revision` WHERE rev_text_id = LIMIT 1

from within function "SimpleSecurity::validateRow". MySQL returned error "1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'LIMIT 1' at line 1 Looks like it's missing something after the rev_text_id = --Rob 20:02, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * MediaWiki: 1.10.1
 * PHP: 5.2.0-8+etch11 (cgi-fcgi)
 * MySQL: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch6-log
 * These bugs are all fixed now I think, plus a couple of others too ;-) --Nad 06:28, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Category-based permissions don't work
I Need to define a category which can only be edited by a particular group. I've done the following in LocalSettings.php:

$wgGroupPermissions['PuedeEditar']['read']=true; $wgPageRestrictions['Category:ProtegidoEscritura']['edit'] = 'PuedeEditar';
 * 1) to create a group
 * 1) only members of 'PuedeEditar' can edit on category 'ProtegidoEscritura'

I've created an user in the group 'PuedeEditar' and other user not in this group and also a page with de category 'ProtegidoEscritura':

The two users can edit the page...

My configuration of Simple Security on LocalSettings is: $wgSecurityUseDBHook=true; $wgSecurityAllowUnreadableLinks=false; $wgSecurityRenderInfo=true;

I use MediaWiki 1.13 and the last version of Simple Security (4.2.2)

¿ Any suggestions ?
 * What does the list of restrictions say in the security info on a page thats not working? --Nad 09:58, 26 August 2008 (UTC)


 * With $wgSecurityRenderInfo = true, there isn't any restrictions info in the page. It seems that the restriction is not being applied. Anyway, when I protect the page using the tab, I can see the restriction information.
 * I've got a new 1.13 running to debug it in, I should be able to have it running soon --Nad 12:54, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
