Description Nick Tarleton 2005-09-04 03:23:22 UTC

If you type a nonexistent category page in the search box and hit Enter, you see
"You can or put up a request for it" (without the "create this article" link),
and at the bottom it'll say the search page you're looking at is in that
category. I suppose SpecialSearch.php is missing a colon somewhere.

search [[en:Special:Allmessages]] for MediaWiki:Nogomatch

It seams that the colon should be added also in CVS and or HEAD. Else image and
category pages would break other wiki's / projects.

Comment 3 Niklas Laxström 2005-10-07 17:19:37 UTC

It's in the code as far as i know

>>>

includes/SpecialSearch.php:  $wgOut->addWikiText( wfMsg('nogomatch', ":$term" ) );
extensions/LuceneSearch.php: $wgOut->addWikiText( wfMsg('nogomatch', ":" .
$t->getPrefixedText() ) );

Restored bug from flood attack.

Comment 6 Rob Church 2007-01-15 14:38:07 UTC

This would have been resolved when the whole "nogomatch" mess was cleaned up and
"noexactmatch" was introduced.
