I notice that when the MediaWiki API is disabled (with $wgEnableAPI = false), this also disables auto-suggestions in the search box.
Assuming this is intentional... what's the friendliest way to forbid general web access to the API but still allow search suggestions to appear? I considered using the hook 'ApiBeforeMain' to return false unless action=opensearch. Is that the most reliable/friendly solution? This is MediaWiki 1.28.0 with the default search engine, on an Ubuntu 16.04LTS host. Thank you very much, DanB _______________________________________________ Mediawiki-api mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api
