Created attachment 9092 [details] A fixed version of CategorySuggest. See description. The attached file fixes some basic issues to make CategorySuggest work in 1.16. Some of the hooks took references instead of variables, making it crash. I've also rewritten the database query, "optimizing" it (now uses category table instead of categorylink table, lot less rows and no DISTINCT necessary) and fixing bugs (it now converts category names to utf8 string before running UPPER, this would previously break 1.16 since cat_title is varbinary, which UPPER of course can't handle). This is my first contribution, so do expect errors! And sorry if "critical" is an incorrect classification.
It should be mentioned that the database query fix probably breaks compatibility with 1.11, since the category table wasn't added until 1.13. I guess it would be easy to check the version before choosing which query to use though.
That's not our maintained SVN, so you will have more luck with this contacting the maintainer via http://sourceforge.net/projects/mediawiki/
