2013-07-11 Thread Beebe, Mary J
I am using the Vector skin. I have an extension very similar to whatlinkshere. It needs to take the current page as the parameter just like whatlinkshere. I would like to add it to the toolbox, but actually I do not care where it is in the navigation but the toolbox seems the most logical.

[Wikitech-l] Logging messages

2012-02-10 Thread Beebe, Mary J
I was trying to use this old extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UserLoginLog to log login attempts. It used $wgMessageCache; therefore it worked fine until we went to a 1.18 wiki. I tried to modernize it by creating a UserLoginLog.i18n file to keep the messages. I have
