Issues
[edit]email field
[edit]wpEmail sometimes doesn't appear in munged ul ?
BUG: username and e-mail fields don't pick up the oversize height: 30px sizing. I think this is because in the original table, they don't have type=text; this may be because in wgHtml5 mode, the HTML::input() method drops default attributes like 'input="text"'!
FIXED: mention the specific ids for username and e-mail.
userbuckets cookie
[edit]Firefox with Firebug messes up cookies. Reassigns cookie each time. After clicking [Create account] on first page display, the second page display request header includes:
- Cookie
- userbuckets=%7B%22PEF%22%3A%5B%22experimental_1%22%2C1%5D%7D; userbuckets=%7B%22PEF%22%3A%5B%22experimental_1%22%2C1%5D%2C%22ACUX%22%3A%5B%22control%22%2C1%5D%7D;
Note: two userbuckets! Happens on cube as well as localhost.
Testing issues
[edit]The experiment only takes place for anonymous users.
But if you log out and then reload, sometimes you won't see the e-mail field and will see a "Real name" field. This seems to be some interaction with the cookie wiki_session; or possibly the other cookies wikiUserName, wikiUserID, or wikiLoggedOut=timestamp
