undefined function strptime()[edit]

undefined function getUserEditCountSince()[edit]

  • I'm also getting this error but with function getUserEditCountSince(), in 1.18, after having upgraded the database.
    • I found a hack to get past the error; in ApiClickTracking.php comment out this (by placing '//' at the start of each line):
		// $granularity1 = $isLoggedIn ?
			// $this->getUserEditCountSince( $now - $wgClickTrackContribGranularity1 ) : 0;
		// $granularity2 = $isLoggedIn ?
			// $this->getUserEditCountSince( $now - $wgClickTrackContribGranularity2 ) : 0;
		// $granularity3 = $isLoggedIn ?
			// $this->getUserEditCountSince( $now - $wgClickTrackContribGranularity3 ) : 0;

Check out the source of this article to see the spacing.

Then, under it, place this:

 $granularity1 = $granularity2 = $granularity3 = 0;

Note that using this probably breaks some features of the extension...

Me too. I think getUserEditCountSince() is implemented by another extension, Extension:UserDailyContribs. The idea of this very hard-coded trio of measurements is to provide a sense of user "involvement" from edits over time. -- SPage (WMF) (talk) 03:34, 26 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Privacy?[edit]

Hey, where's the debate about this extension? I noticed that the cookie is not cleared after a user logs out. The same issue affects centralauth and mediawiki-core, so don't take it personally ;) But, I see no need to keep the cookie around if it's not gonna get used for anything legitimate.

Just FYI: hopefully we'll be officially deprecating ClickTracking in favor of Extension:EventLogging soon. We're slowly but surely trying to remove dependency on it. Steven Walling (WMF) • talk 23:53, 16 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
