Just tested in 1.37.1. No error message but no page created either. Pity because this functionality is useful.

It is indeed no longer working starting with 1.35.x or even earlier. Indeed it will be great to get a working version again.
Reported at GitHub. Not sure if it will get any attention though.
There is also https://github.com/Universal-Omega/AutoCreatePage, the repo the extension's page currently links to.
Both forks appear to work for 1.37.x, at least they claim to.
