I'm not comfortable with downloading the separate files from the git hub but I will try it. The extension distributor does not send the complete series of files, just the empty directory. Update: Well that was a bust; it inserted a copy of the git hub page into my main page and into the top of the Special:Pages page also I noticed the whitelist.txt was an HTML page that seemed to be a form of some kind. At any rate I'll try it out when its a bit farther along.
Now about scripy--ban.php-- any tips. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
