Topic on Extension talk:HitCounters

Hi Everyone,

We recently updated to Mediawiki 1.36. I'm testing some of our installed skins under it.

Most skins are causing this warning to be printed on the top of each page. But it looks like this may be a HitCounter issue:

Deprecated: Use of SkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec hook (used in HitCounters\Hooks::onSkinTemplateOutputPageBeforeExec) was deprecated in MediaWiki 1.35. [Called from MediaWiki\HookContainer\HookContainer::run in /var/www/html/w/includes/HookContainer/HookContainer.php at line 137] in /var/www/html/w/includes/debug/MWDebug.php on line 376

I have no idea why we are running debug code on a production server. I guess that's a separate issue for the Mediawiki folks.

My apologies if this is not a HitCounter issue.

Our mediawiki information can be found here.

WikiForMen,

I'm still not seeing the changes on the GitHub mirror. da6e220 is an older commit:

Updating extension HitCounters
Entering /var/www/html/w/extensions/HitCounters
REL1_36 branch found
HEAD is now at da6e220 build: Updating browserslist to 4.16.6

Would you happen to know when your changes are going to land in the GitHub mirror?

Thanks again.

Thanks WikiForMen.

We use the REL1_36 branch from the HitCounter GitHub. Is the change available in REL1_36?

Thanks in advance.

It is REL1_35+! ;-) --WikiForMen (talk) 06:42, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks WikiForMen,

It looks like there's a Phabricator issue tracking skins and extensions using deprecated interfaces. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T282897.

Thanks again.
