Hello. I added Structured Discussion email to GlobalPrefs three days ago. I do not get mails from cawiki about topic posts. I do get them from mediawiki.org, where this preference is local.
Here is hewiki Global Preferences page, where it was added.
I think I understand the problem. With GlobalPreferences, we have a new database table where the preference is stored but the StructuredDiscussions extension has not yet been updated so it still looks at the local preference and hence, it does not see the correct value. This should be fixed.
Relatedly, any other preferences which are added by other extensions will also have the same problem,. I am looking into them and will be filing tickets for them all.
About completely different ticket: If you do this, could you keep for me a list of extensions that use Global Preferences? Please?
@IKhitron I haven't been able to reproduce it myself. Here is what I did:
I got the emails and notifications as expected from the flow board post. Are the steps to reproduce correct?
Emails only. I can't check notifications, because all global preferences except Structured discussions mail were set on my account a month ago.
Looks like this. Maybe something missing, because. I'm continuing not to get emails.
Okay. As a basic check, maybe disable GlobalPreferences for that preference and enable it locally.
And then override it in GlobalPreferences again.
@IKhitron Does this problem still happen? I would close this task if you haven't had the problem since. It could have been a temporary caching issue or something.
I had no chance to check it, because there were no flow edits in my watchlist. When there will, be I'll inform you if it works.
Okay, thanks @IKhitron. Please reopen this task if the feature continues to not work for you.
