Notice: Undefined index: page_creation_notif[edit]

Hi, At ~24.11.2013 nischayn22@gmail.com has provided a fix for error message below when new user was created after this extension was installed: “Notice: Undefined index: page_creation_notif in /home/wiki/htdocs/mediawiki-1.21.2/extensions/PageCreationNotif/PageCreationNotif.hooks.php on line 56”

It works now perfectly, thanks

br, RL

Select category[edit]

Hi, would it be possible to change this extension so that categories can be selected for which page creation is notified?

I think this is an interesting addition to the standard watchlist and semantic watchlist, but in my case I would be interested in creation of certain categories only.

Thanks! --AdSvS (talk) 10:28, 13 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi, definitely it should be possible. But this extension was created for TI and I am now longer working on this extension. --Nischayn22 (talk) 10:37, 13 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

UTF8[edit]

In my german wiki installation I get problem with special chars like "ä". Changing the file includes/PageCreationNotifEmailer.php to

   array( 'contentType' => 'text/html; charset=UTF8' ) 

solves this for me. --C holtermann (talk) 12:09, 27 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Alternatives to this extension?[edit]

As this extension doesn't show much development in the recent past: Are there alternative extensions to provide the functionality? --C holtermann (talk) 12:10, 27 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sending to wrong email address[edit]

I get emails sent to Username@hostname instead of usernames email address. It seems to be fixed by changing

   new MailAddress( $user ), 

to

   MailAddress::newFromUser( $user ),

in includes/PageCreationNotifEmailer.php. --C holtermann (talk) 12:24, 27 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
