Description George 2012-12-11 19:13:56 UTC
Is there any possibility to disable the work of this extension at registration fields? It's alomst impossible for new users to find out how they can fill the fields - especially the CAPTCHA. The symbols are in latin, and the users have to print in Georgian. Also, I'm interested who maintains the extension and where can changes be discussed - we have lot's of problems, because users can't find out how to disable it, because it requires 2 mouse clicks, when the checkbox, that we had before, required just 1 click and it was much more user friendly. Regards

Thanks for taking the time to report this!
Could you please elaborate what you mean by "at registriation fields", preferably with exact steps to reproduce (click by click) and an URL where you have these problems? Thanks in advance!

> users can't find out how to disable it,

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:Narayam says: "To disable the Input method tool for your user account: "Preferences" ‎→ "Editing" ‎→ Uncheck option "Enable input method" ‎→ Click "Save" to save your settings."

Best place to discuss is probably the mailing list at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-i18n

Seems like this is covered already by bug 41675, hence marking as a duplicate.
