Extension talk:Contributors

It will not work ok when the MW version is 1.8.4
i have already fix this problems!I am --Wanglong 08:23, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

if I add the, the extension works ok,

but when I type the url:

http://localhost/allwiki/index.php/Special:Contributors

the system tell me: Fatal error: Call to undefined method IncludableSpecialPage::gettitlefor in E:\wamp\www\allwiki\extensions\Contributors\Contributors.page.php on line 206

because MW1.8.4 don`t have the method gettitlefor under SpecialPage.php, so i copy the method from the vesion of 1.10.0 to current version of my Mediawki 1.8.4 to the class SpecialPage: static function getTitleFor( $name, $subpage = false ) { $name = self::getLocalNameFor( $name, $subpage ); if ( $name ) { return Title::makeTitle( NS_SPECIAL, $name ); } else { throw new MWException( "Invalid special page name \"$name\"" ); }	}		/**	 * Get the local name for a specified canonical name */	static function getLocalNameFor( $name, $subpage = false ) { global $wgContLang; //		$aliases = $wgContLang->getSpecialPageAliases;// i get off this by pea if ( isset( $aliases[$name][0] ) ) { $name = $aliases[$name][0]; }		if ( $subpage !== false && !is_null( $subpage ) ) { $name = "$name/$subpage"; }		return $name; }

and then the extension can work!i am so happy! hehe !--Wanglong 08:23, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Embedding
When I did a test page for embedding in a page, it was one row and pretty much looks awful. :( --PurplePopple 14:59, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Problem with custom namespaces
I've set up the contributors extension on my site and it works fine. This is a very useful extension.

However, I've got a problem with custom namespaces. Almost all articles on my wiki appear in custom namespaces and I would like to use the "main contributor" link in the toolbox to see the main contributors for these articles.

The problem is that the "main contributors" link appears in the toolbox on articles in the (Main) namespace, but not in the toolboxes in the custom namespaces.

I'm using MW version 1.9.1 with the monobook template.

I tried to set up a link to the special page using MediaWiki:sidebar, but I couldn't get this to work.

For some reason, the contributor extension is placing the "main contributors" link in the tool box only in the (Main) namespace.

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Thanks..
