--- Comment #1 from Matthias Mullie <[email protected]> 2012-11-29 13:59:57 UTC --- It looks like this is default Special:Log behavior; it only supports searches for existing users & this behavior is not limited to AFTv5. Judging from the comment added in the code, it appears to be intended (legal reasons not to disclose too much info per IP?) Below excerpt of the code in Special:Log: /* Fetch userid at first, if known, provides awesome query plan afterwards */ $userid = User::idFromName( $name ); if( !$userid ) { /* It should be nicer to abort query at all, but for now it won't pass anywhere behind the optimizer */ $this->mConds[] = "NULL"; } else { .. the case where user exists, which does add the clause to the query .. } -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
