PortlandWiki - Social Profile Extensions & Changes To User Pages

[Dave Myers]

Hey All,

A couple of days ago, while updating some of PortlandWiki's extensions and adding others, some user pages were altered as part of the process. The extension that apparently triggered the changes was Semantic Social Profile:

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Social_Profile

We're still trying to figure out if those changes were good, bad or just ugly. In the meantime, if the extension imposed undesired changes to your user page, you can undo that change. Here's how:

1. Proceed to your user page at PortlandWiki.org.

Example: http://portlandwiki.org/User:WikiMistress

2. Click the "View history" tab in the top, right corner near the search box.

3. Look for this change log:

(cur | prev) 20:19, 30 July 2011 WikiMaster (Talk | contribs | block) (899 bytes) (This page has been changed by Semantic Social Profile extension) (rollback | undo)

Any changes you don't want, please click either the "rollback" or "undo" link.

Although all changes to PortlandWiki user pages happened as a consequence of the extension upgrade, the change log on your user page will blame the WikiMaster, who indeed is absolutely to blame.

Sorry!
