Preloading {{PAGENAME}} in embedded query forms does not work with MW 1.19
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG REPORT

Description

Author: daniel_5000

Description:
Until MediaWiki 1.18 I was able to preload the {{PAGENAME}} magic word into query forms embedded in normal wiki pages.

In MW 1.19 this functionality seems to be broken - {{PAGENAME}} does not give me the actual page name anymore, but the name of the embedded special page (RunQuery/Form name).

SMW version is 1.7.1. (I tried SMW 1.8 alpha and the last git code for SF, but had the same problem)

Example:

Example with MW 1.18 (working):

Sorry it took me 11 years to respond to this - but the problem seems to have been fixed since then (probably in MediaWiki itself), judging from the current state of that wiki page, which is thankfully still up, and now running MW 1.38.
