Extension talk:Username Blacklist

blacklist email domain names

I need to create a blacklist of e-mail domain names, from which users can't login. Any Chance you would want to do that?

This does not work when I try to install it on this wiki. When I edit MediaWiki:Usernameblacklist, I get this error. Any help? --72.64.9.127 17:05, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

regex - accountname length

prevent accounts with more than eight characters

• .{9,}

prevent accounts with less than 8 characters

• ^[.]{0,7}$

both seem not to work. Tobias Conradi 16:19, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Global Meta blacklist?

Has anyone considered adding a Meta page (m:Username blacklist for instance?) to take care of cross-wiki bad usernames? Kylu 21:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Not working

When I install this, I get the following error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_REQUIRE_ONCE in C:\wamp\www\mediawiki-1.12.0\LocalSettings.php on line 154 Dagoth Ur, Mad God 12:12, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Depreciated

Now that titleblacklist has <newaccountonly>, is this extension depreciated?  — Mike.lifeguard | ^@meta 18:03, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Error: Call to undefined function wfLoadExtensionMessages()

Try to get Extension working on Mediawiki 1.7 (Debian). Get the following error:

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function wfLoadExtensionMessages() in [Path] UsernameBlacklist.php on line 45.

Could this be because of $wgExtensionMessagesFiles is introduced in Version 1.11.0 ? Extension is mentioned to work with 1.5+, so can you tell me if there is a way around this or is this not possible? Perhaps you could think of other possible errors on my side (?), but other extensions work fine. Best regards and thanks for your work!

Backward compatibility was probably broken at some point. Upgrade MediaWiki. —Emufarmers^(T|C) 05:18, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Ampersand

Hi, the ampersand should be removed from a parameter in 3 function headers, or the latest version of PHP will cause an error in hooks.php. Cheers, Guido den Broeder (talk) 00:21, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
