Description Thomas Hempel 2006-07-24 04:58:13 UTC

Currently it has a very unusual way of registering itself as a special page,
which often doesn't work. making it use the recommended way specified in
SpecialPage.php makes it work consistently.
It requires changing the area around line 21 of LinkSearch.php to:
 	$wgSpecialPages['Linksearch'] = array ('SpecialPage', 'Linksearch');

Seems to work fine...?

Comment 2 Gunter Schmidt 2007-03-16 13:58:43 UTC

I can confirm this bug. Maybe it is due to the german localization.

Used 1.9 and 1.10 with LinkSearch of today.

Comment 3 Gunter Schmidt 2007-03-17 11:23:19 UTC

The require_once call has to be placed before all other extension calls.

Not an acceptable workaround; extensions MUST NOT interfere with other code in a
negative fashion.

Comment 5 Brion Vibber 2007-05-08 21:22:43 UTC

This will have been fixed a couple weeks ago; several extensions were not
returning correct code from hook, thus aborting other extensions. :)
