Hi I know this is the wrong forum...but i never get any response from the mediawiki forum.
I installed OpenLDAP and added the records via the ldif file. Everything seems to be working fine except when i used the #get_ldap_data call, nothing displays. I'm beginning to wonder if it has to do with MagicWords and the use of {{ }}? Because the same happened with RecordAdmin...installation went fine except displaying the data. I've enabled html. Not sure what else to do. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
