Hi Maxsem,
I have an issue on Mediawiki with MobileFrontend installed.
I have set wgMFAnonymousEditing= true;
But when I edit any article on the wiki page with mobile version of the skin, I am not able to save it. It says - "Error, edit not saved." However if I am logged in, there are no errors.
But on the desktop version of the site, there are no errors.
Can you please help me?
Thanks, Deepak
Hey Deepack this variable is not really maintained and may have bugs in it (see documentation which reads: * Whether or not anonymous (not logged in) users should be able to edit. * Note this is highly experimental and comes without any warranty and may introduce bugs * until anonymous editing experience is addressed in this extension. Anonymous editing * on mobile is still a big unknown. See bug 53069.
It sounds like it is misbehaving an there is a bug here that needs fixing. If someone is willing to help get this fixed for 3rd party users I'm more than willing to merge the code! :)
Jon

So registered users have any additional privilege? Particularly, skipcaptcha maybe?

This could be possible - it might be blindly assuming an anonymous user can edit the page, but actually the page is protected so only registered users can edit it.
Are you able to open up Chrome developer tools and paste the API response that is received just before the error?
