Steps to reproduce: User 1 steps 1. Logged in user navigates to the Wikimedia main page. 2. Click on the 'My preferences' link. 3. Select the checkboxes under 'E-mail confirmation:'.(E-mail me when a page on my watchlist is changed (disabled) / E-mail me also for minor edits of pages) 4. Add a page to watchlist. User 2 steps 4. Perform a minor edit on a watchlisted page of User 1. 5. Select 'This is a minor edit' check box. 6. Click on the 'Save page' button. Actual results: Email notification has not received. Expected results: Email notification needs to receive. URL : http://prototype.wikimedia.org/rc-en/index.php/Main_Page Version : 1.17alpha (r80667)
Should probably remove the display of disabled options, but I think the minor edit notifications are also disabled.
Per bug 19468 the options *are* removed when actually disabled... The "(disabled)" text here is not due to features being disabled, but rather because someone physically added that text to the labels in July 2009: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/rc-en/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Tog-enotifusertalkpages&action=history http://prototype.wikimedia.org/rc-en/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Tog-enotifwatchlistpages&action=history In a quick test, I can confirm that I'm not receiving notification emails when I have another account edit either my user talk page or a watched page, regardless of major/minor. Based on what should be the running code, if the config options are in fact disabled, they won't show up in prefs; they may be breaking for some other reason. Someone needs to check the config files and see that things are actually set right there -- the settings don't seem to be visible yet as the production ones are, cf bug 27154. Changed bug summary and product/component to reflect this appears to be a prototype-specific config issue.
I just got a email for my account creation, So the email part does work.
The prototype server is being decommissioned hence any issue with it will disappear whenever the shutdown button is pressed.
