Bug #: 34326
Summary: SemanticForms: Partial forms and nested templates.
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: SemanticForms
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
I have a form with nested templates:
> {{{info}}}
> {{{for template|Cache}}}
> ...Cache fields...
> {{{field|Locations|holds template}}}
> {{{end template}}}
> {{{for template|Cache/Location|multiple|embed in field=Cache[Locations]}}}
> ...Location fields...
> {{{end template}}}
Everything works good. Page code looks as expected:
> {{Cache
> |...Cache fields...
> |Locations={{Cache/Location|...}}{{Cache/Location|...}}...
> }}
I have an additional *partial* form:
> {{{info|partial form}}}
> {{{for template|Cache}}}
> <!-- No Cache fields, just next one. -->
> {{{field|Locations|holds template}}}
> {{{end template}}}
> {{{for template|Cache/Location}}}
> ...Location fields...
> {{{end template}}}
After editing a page with this partial form, all the Location templates *moved*
*out* of Cache, while Locations field receives strange value:
> {{Cache
> |...Cache fields...
> |Locations=@replace_Cache___Locations@
> }}
> {{Cache/Location|...}}{{Cache/Location|...}}...
That's obviously a big. Partial form should not move nested templates out of
main template.
However, there is a workaround: removing "partial form" specifier from partial
form definition. Such a "non-partial" form produces correct result, but I am a
bit afraid -- formally it is declared as partial form, so it does not have to
save non-used fields of main template, does it?
