Mailgun
Hi, I'm having a problem with Extension:Mailgun. When I run, it's not pulling in a   to the   directory. Any thoughts on how to deal with this situation? Thanks. LibertyAlerts (talk) 01:09, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Okey. So, you need to extract the extension to  and then,  . It works for me here, so can you check if you have composer installed locally in your machine, and is allowed to pull ? I will submit a change to upgrade the same to V2.0 soon, as its available here though ( https://packagist.org/packages/mailgun/mailgun-php )01tonythomas (talk) 04:45, 7 April 2016 (UTC)

This is the result I'm getting: LibertyAlerts (talk) 23:56, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
 * looks like you are getting the composer pulling in the correct Mailgun version perfectly ? The mailgun code will be pulled to  01tonythomas (talk) 03:59, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Actually's it's here.

So what do I do then? I tried recursively copying the contents of that folder into  but it's now failing silently. What about the  in  ; is that the same as the API Base URL, e.g.  ? Thanks. LibertyAlerts (talk) 10:17, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Few things you need to know is that  should happen after you have downloaded the Mailgun extension to  . Please dont worry about anything in   as they are external dependencies pulled by composer ( even mailgun-php is ).   should be   in your case. Welcome.01tonythomas (talk) 13:42, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Part of the problem is that when it fails, it fails silently (no error message). LibertyAlerts (talk) 14:28, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Fails silently == the  fails silently ?
 * No, I mean when the email doesn't send. It gives a message saying that the email was sent, but it doesn't actually send. What I ended up doing was disabling the Mailgun extension and using $wgSMTP to get email working on my wiki. Thanks, LibertyAlerts (talk) 12:29, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Hmm, thats strange. Did you check the Mailgun logs, to see if the email actually came out of your server, and hit the API ? 01tonythomas (talk) 17:25, 16 April 2016 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you. It was fun, and sadly Andre had to run over it again as we do not have a specific `mentor` field yet in our bug tracker, and GCI wants it. 01tonythomas (talk) 08:35, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

Seeking help in beginning with MediaWiki extensions
Hi Tony, Actually, I aspire to be selected as an Outreachy intern in this round. I just wanted some help in beginning with MediaWiki extensions, can you help me with some beginner issues so that I can get familiar with this area of MediaWiki? That would be a really great help. Thanks :) --MaroonPixel (talk) 14:24, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Sure. What kind of help do you want ? First step would be to of course figure out some *easy* bugs to work on (assuming you have a working local wiki). 01tonythomas (talk) 14:33, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
