Topic on Extension talk:ContactPage

The ⧼...⧽ output indicates a missing message matching the name within the guillemets. Creating a page matching the name in the MediaWiki namespace is the typical way to define the message text.

When I used the suggested code in your extension description, with the msg( 'Contact' ) it generates "⧼Contact⧽" in the footer rather than "Contact", any ideas?

Mediawiki version = 1.40

There are multiple other extensions running.

That is a sign that a message named "Contact" was not found. The message system would be looking for a MediaWiki:Contact page on your wiki. If no such page is found then the message system would display the marker that you report seeing in the rendered HTML.

Great, thanks! I assumed Special:Contact was its page. I created MediaWiki:Contact, with the text "Contact", and now it is perfect. Cheers for the extension.
