Configuration: MediaWiki - 1.17.0beta1, PHP - 5.3.5, MySQL - 5.1.53 I am using SemanticBundle extensions to populate pages with various tables bases on Category and Property conditions. After upgrading to MediaWiki 1.17 beta it still showing as a table, but no borders, no gray background for header row and no checkbox next to header to sort the table. Example of the code: {{#ask: [[Category:Variables]] [[Part of::Table1]] |?Description=Description |?Has Data Type=Type |? HasFormat= Format | format=table | limit=100 | default=nothing found in Category: Variables }} Per advice of Mediawiki Supportdesk (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Lost_wikitable_format_and_sortable_functionality_after_updating_from_1.16_to_1.17) tried to disable extensions in LocalSettings.php one at a time. I found that I can restore “sortable table” feature by disabling following line: require_once( "$IP/extensions/semantic-bundle/SemanticBundleSettings.php" ); I tried to narrow the issue down and one at a time disabled every require_once statements in the SemanticBundleSettings.php – was not able to reproduce the problem. Looks like issue between 1.17 and core of SemanticMediawiki. Same set of semantic extentions were working fine with 1.16. Please, advice.
A lot of the extensions where not compatible yet with MediaWiki 1.17 when the last Semantic Bundle was released. Upgrading them to their latest version should fix the problem. A new release of Semantic Bundle will be made soon after SMW 1.6 has been release, which will probably be in a few weeks.
