Thank you for this. I have tried setting my own custom key-value pair (e.g. using $this->getRequest()->setVal( 'reasonConfirm', 1 ); ), but I cannot seem to retrieve it when the page reloads. I've tried both getVal (returns null every time) and getInt (always returns '0') to no avail. Is there a special way to set your own custom variables?
Interestingly, I have also noticed that my return $this-msg() text is no longer displaying at all. When my validation callback is triggered, only the top "There are problems with some of your input." appears. I have checked en.json and can confirm that the message that should be displayed is still present and is properly formatted. -TheSandDoctor -----Original Message----- From: Wikitech-l <[email protected]> On Behalf Of bawolff Sent: October 1, 2019 1:12 PM To: Wikimedia developers <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Wikitech-l] URL parameter fetching (mediawiki) MediaWiki coding conventions is to use the WebRequest object.
