It works fine with 1.17.0 but after upgrading to 1.18.1 I got this error: Fatal error: Maximum function nesting level of '500' reached, aborting! in \extensions\DisableSpecialPages\DisableSpecialPages.php on line 216 It's not the whole stack trace because it's redundant: # Time Memory Function Location 1 0.0008 370456 {main}( ) ..\index.php:0 2 0.1432 10861856 MediaWiki->run( ) ..\index.php:57 3 0.1433 10861856 MediaWiki->main( ) ..\Wiki.php:547 4 0.1433 10861904 MediaWiki->performRequest( ) ..\Wiki.php:640 5 0.1434 10862088 Title->isSpecial( ) ..\Wiki.php:155 6 0.1445 10993192 SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias( ) ..\Title.php:4120 7 0.1445 10993472 SpecialPageFactory::getAliasList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:242 8 0.1459 11078072 SpecialPageFactory::getList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:209 9 0.1460 11080304 wfRunHooks( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:185 10 0.1460 11080304 Hooks::run( ) ..\GlobalFunctions.php:3631 11 0.1460 11085184 call_user_func_array ( ) ..\Hooks.php:216 12 0.1460 11085368 efDspHook( ) ..\Hooks.php:216 13 0.1502 11858552 SpecialPage::resolveAlias( ) ..\DisableSpecialPages.php:39 14 0.1502 11858552 SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias( ) ..\SpecialPage.php:89 15 0.1502 11858832 SpecialPageFactory::getAliasList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:242 16 0.1503 11858832 SpecialPageFactory::getList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:209 17 0.1503 11859064 wfRunHooks( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:185 18 0.1503 11859064 Hooks::run( ) ..\GlobalFunctions.php:3631 19 0.1504 11863960 call_user_func_array ( ) ..\Hooks.php:216 20 0.1504 11864144 efDspHook( ) ..\Hooks.php:216 21 0.1505 11866248 SpecialPage::resolveAlias( ) ..\DisableSpecialPages.php:39 22 0.1505 11866248 SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias( ) ..\SpecialPage.php:89 23 0.1505 11866528 SpecialPageFactory::getAliasList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:242 24 0.1505 11866528 SpecialPageFactory::getList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:209 25 0.1506 11866760 wfRunHooks( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:185 26 0.1506 11866760 Hooks::run( ) ..\GlobalFunctions.php:3631 27 0.1506 11871656 call_user_func_array ( ) ..\Hooks.php:216 28 0.1506 11871840 efDspHook( ) ..\Hooks.php:216 29 0.1507 11873944 SpecialPage::resolveAlias( ) ..\DisableSpecialPages.php:39 30 0.1507 11873944 SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias( ) ..\SpecialPage.php:89 31 0.1508 11874224 SpecialPageFactory::getAliasList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:242 32 0.1508 11874224 SpecialPageFactory::getList( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:209 33 0.1508 11874456 wfRunHooks( ) ..\SpecialPageFactory.php:185 34 0.1508 11874456 Hooks::run( ) ..\GlobalFunctions.php:3631
See here the solution I found: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:DisableSpecialPages I found out what's causing the infinite loop: <code>SpecialPage::resolveAlias</code> has been deprecated since 1.18 Instead you should use <code>SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias</code>. Problem is this has the following stack: <pre>SpecialPageFactory::resolveAlias --> SpecialPageFactory::getAliasList --> SpecialPageFactory::getList --> wfRunHooks( 'SpecialPage_initList', array( &self::$mList ) );</pre> So it's pretty obvious what the problem is. I don't see why we need the canonical name, because if you look [[Manual:Special_pages#Disabling_Special:UserLogin_and_Special:UserLogout_pages|here]] it's pretty clear how to disable built-in special pages. I made the following changes in order to make it work with 1.18.2: * removed this function, not needed: <code>efDspMakeTitle()</code> * new version of <code>efDspHook()</code>: <pre> function efDspHook( &$aSpecialPages ) { global $wgDisabledSpecialPages; if ( !empty ( $wgDisabledSpecialPages ) ) { foreach( $wgDisabledSpecialPages as $page ) { if( !efDspWhitelisted( $page ) && isset( $aSpecialPages[$page] ) ) unset( $aSpecialPages[$page] ); } } return true; } </pre>
