Adding the code at the end of the extension code cause the site to crash.

Thanks very much - I'll give that a go.
However, I'm not very literate with
coding: It says to just insert the following code in the extension:
$parser->disableCache();
I assume that I should just add it to the end of the main extension php
file? Also, could there be any downsides to disabling caching for an
extension?
Also, I tried to use the {{NUMBEROFEDITS}} and {{NUMBEROFPAGES}} variables
instead, and neither of them changed even after a new page was created and I
returned to create a new page. Shouldn't these values have at least changed
after the creation of new page, caching or not?

Hi
I'm using the CreateBox extenstion:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CreateBox
I want the title of each new page created via this extension to
consist of
'User/xxxx', where the user substitutes 'User' for their own
username, and
'xxxx' is anything unique. I've tried using the following code for the
default field text:
User/{{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}}
http://www.chainsofreason.org/wiki/Create_a_new_chain
I used this variable to save the user having to add something
unique, given
that the timestamp includes seconds and therefore should never be
the same
on each use. However, the timestamp does not actually change after
the user
returns to the same page to create another new page - presumably
something
to do with caching.
Can anyone think of any other way of automatically something after
'Username/' that will always be unique - it doesn't matter what it is.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Derrick
