Product Version MediaWiki <http://www.mediawiki.org/> 1.17.0 PHP
<http://www.php.net/> 5.2.17 (apache2handler) MySQL
<http://www.mysql.com/> 5.1.56
Reading the release notes for 1.16 (using 1.17.0 currently).
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Release_notes/1.16
I read that....
# Rewrote Special:Upload to allow easier extension.
However, 1.16 / 1.17 breaks the extension I am interested in, namely
"ImportFreeImages" (via FLICKR API).
Documentation suggests that the ImportFreeImages extension is no longer
maintained, viz
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ImportFreeImages
The browse function works well.... on upload I get the following:
****
Upload warning
Invalid URL: $1

Version info:
******
* @ingroup Extensions
* @version 2.0
* @author Bryan Tong Minh <bryan.xxxxinh(a)gmail.com>
* @author Travis Derouin <xxxxxs(a)wikihow.com>
*****
Options? Fix "ImportFreeImages"? Or find an alternative that works with
1.17 (and higher)? I thought I had found such a version in SVN, but it
was just copy.
Any other thoughts?
Cheers!
