Fatal error: Call to undefined function wfmessage() in /home/wikimultiple/wikimultiple/extensions/Cite/Cite_body.php on line 1007

This happens on any page with citations. I am a rank beginner at these things. Could someone explain?

What version of MediaWiki do you use (check Special:Version), and where did you download the Cite extension exactly (what version).

I got the same error. I'm using MW 1.16.2 and tried several snapshots of this extension, always the same error. This error can be fixed by replacing wfmessage() by wfMsg() but other errors appears after that.

wfMessage() cannot be replaced by wfMsg(). wfMessage(), a global function referencing the Message class was introduced in MediaWiki 1.17. We strongly suggest you update to a supported version of MediaWiki or use an older version of Cite.

it would be nice to have somewhere a list of links to "sanctioned" versions of the extension per mediawiki version.

i guess it's enough to have links to specific git commits (just to demonstrate what i mean - something like this), because the gitweb/gerrit thingy already has a "snapshot" link that gets you the tarball ready to eat.

peace.

How does one get an "older" version of cite? I want pre-Rel 19.
