User "Dantman" posted a comment on MediaWiki.r102624. Full URL: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/102624#c25860 Commit summary:
Add a new User::getDisplayName() to return the name that should be displayed in the interface. Add a UserDisplayName hook to allow extensions to give custom display names for users. Add a $wgRealNameInInterface to use the real name of a user as the display name. To start of the first use of the display name functionality tweak SkinTemplate to declare the userdisplayname and use it inside of personal_urls. Comment: Yes, outside of stuff on the page itself. Most queries don't join on page_props, and it's possible in some cases for a page prop to not be present. So using displaytitle on say Special:Allpages requires either an extra join with some potentially complicated circumstances or it'll be inefficient as page_props would have to be repeatedly queried. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
