About this board

Summary by Kghbln

Done.

This extension has been deprecated by Extension:VEForAll (which is based on it). Is it possible to archive it?

Kghbln (talkcontribs)

I'd wait a bit until PageForms supporting the new extension was officially released.

Kghbln (talkcontribs)

Done now.

Meant to be used with MW 1.28 only.

Hi. I'm running

MediaWiki 1.30.0 (830bb58)
PHP 5.6.36 (apache2handler)
MariaDB 5.5.56-MariaDB
ICU 50.1.2
VisualEditor 0.1.0 (61f161a)13:07, 2 October 2017
Page Forms 4.3 (c35e352)12:50, 14 March 2018

and I installed

VEForPageForm 0.1.0 (76ab247)04:06, 2 January 2018

It installed without issue.. there are no errors...

I added the class=form-textarea to form elements of input type=textarea

but no changes were observed from the extension in "edit with form" mode.

It's as if the extension was never installed.

Apparently it is a 1.28.x only extension. However I think Yaron is currently working on a way to make VE integration work with PF.

Revansx (talkcontribs)

Roger that. Thanks for the clarification.

VE for "Free Text" area in a Page Form?

Summary by Kghbln

Yes

Revansx (talkcontribs)

Does this extension make it possible to use VE in the Free Text region of a page form?

ClemFlip (talkcontribs)

Yes! It enable VE in the textarea fields created with the Extension:PageForm

Summary by Kghbln

VEforAll is as bad but obviously this is desired naming

Kghbln (talkcontribs)

When it comes to do "marketing" this extension or to make it findable more easily I would have rather called it "VisualEditorForPageForms". A more consistent naming would have been "VEForPF" but that's not really a nice name. However it should probably include the "s" from the PageForms extension in any way. Just a suggestion in the end.
