[04:00:39] so, good evening, i'm setting up a mediawiki install for an organization i'm a part of as a private workspace and am trying to follow the steps https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_rights#Removing_predefined_groups here to remove the predefined groups and it's removing the *rights* but not removing the groups from Special:ListGroupRights [04:19:08] hi chermorg [04:20:16] hi :) [04:22:34] i followed the provided ecample on my wiki, aiming to remove beaurecrat right. it did not get removed, because it still had the renameuser right. i commented out the renameuser extension. then the beauracrat group disappeared from the Special:ListGroupRights list [04:23:19] as i put these lines at the end of localsettings.php, i'm not sure how to accomplish removal of the group without commenting out the renameuser extension. this bit is unclear to me. but at least it works in this manner. [04:23:36] awesome, i can do that for now thanks. [04:23:40] for you, at Special:ListGroupRights, are any rights listed next to the group that you want to remove? [04:25:21] yes, but disabling the extensions associated with those works for now [04:45:49] okay [05:08:58] chermorg: as the page suggests you can do the unsetting in a hook so it will happen after the extension initializes [05:10:55] wgExtensionFunctions is probably not the best for that, maybe SetupAfterCache? [05:13:10] where does the editcount in special:preferences pull its data [05:31:28] updime: user_editcount in the user table [05:32:30] legoktm: that's what i thought, but what if it's incorrect? even after running initEditCount. for example Special:Editcount shows an accurate value but the one in Sp:Pref does not [05:32:58] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:User_table#user_editcount [05:33:03] > This field is not an exactly accurate copy of COUNT(*) FROM revision WHERE rev_user = user_id. However, it should be roughly accurate if the update scripts are consistently run and it's the only place edit count data is available to the software, so it's still used for serious purposes like deciding whether accounts have been autopromoted. [13:13:59] Hello, my site is loading extremely slow...it picked up a little bit when i upgraded to php 7, however i get error messages about losing connection to the database...here is the full error: https://hastebin.com/ajeqoqehor.tex appreciate any help [13:21:47] kevindank: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Profiling and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:How_to_debug [13:31:15] High CPU usage was detected for the application 'helioscountrylaw'(78.7%) on the one instance in your app service plan. CPU Usage went as high as 92.8% on that instance during this time.

[14:38:46] I think I just found a fun bug. User::idFromName() spends 60+ seconds trying being called repeatedly for the same user and not using the cache. Because it causes the value as null and isset() fails on that. [14:38:56] When doing XML imports.
