I was trying to use this old extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UserLoginLog to log login attempts.  It used $wgMessageCache; therefore it worked fine until we went to a 1.18 wiki.  I tried to modernize it by creating a UserLoginLog.i18n file to keep the messages.

I have $wgExtensionMessagesFiles['userLoginLog'] = dirname( __FILE__ ) . "/UserLoginLog.i18n.php";  at setup.

Looks good this far.

A sample method is:

function wfUserLoginLogSuccess(&$user) {

wfLoadExtensionMessages( 'userLoginLog' );

$log = new LogPage('userlogin',false);

$log->addEntry('success',$user->getUserPage(),wfGetIP());

return true;

}

The statement 'wfLoadExtensionMessages( 'userLoginLog' );' does not seem to do anything because the message in the log is  <userlogin-success>  instead of the message.

wfLoadExtensionMessages hasn't done anything for a while. The needed messages are loaded automatically, as long as the files are registered with $wgExtensionMessagesFiles.

I am not sure how to pass in the message log name or how to make it global now that wgmessageCache is no longer available.  Is there a document on how to use the logging feature in the wiki?

Maybe your i18n file is not properly formatted, or it is cached. Try running 'php maintenance/rebuildLocalisationCache.php' fom the command line. -Niklas
