Description Frantik 2009-06-07 22:11:51 UTC When viewing previous versions of pages (&oldid in url), the PHP code new Article(Title::newFromText('foo')); Returns the article you're viewing, not the article 'foo'. I am using this in my Extension:CustomSideBar Comment 1 Tim Starling 2009-06-09 12:54:42 UTC This has always been the case. You can use a zero oldid parameter: $article = new Article( Title::newFromText('foo'), 0 ); Or just avoid using Article.php at all, since it is full of this kind of rubbish.
