I'm not sure why, but wgBetaFeaturesFeatures is incomplete on my local MediaWiki-Vagrant install. In the actual preferences UI, I see the following BetaFeatures: * Hovercards * Compact personal bar * Fixed header * VisualEditor * VisualEditor language tool But wgBetaFeaturesFeatures is only: { popups: null, visualeditor-enable-language: null } That in turn means that these are the only ones looped over in betafeatures.js, which means other features don't have the JavaScript/browser blacklist processing. This bug affects production as well. Side note, you can use: .client-js .mw-ui-feature-requirements-javascript { display: none; } for a simpler way to do the JS-hiding, but that doesn't address the underlying problem.
Change 159538 had a related patch set uploaded by Jforrester: Populate $features even if there aren't any requirements https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/159538
This bug is a consequence of bug 70814, see https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70814#c5 : the fix there correctly populates the wgBetaFeaturesFeatures array. (I make this bug depend of bug 70814, but it is similar to a duplicate.)
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/161629 should have resolved this bug. Is it confirmed?
Ah, sorry. I meant https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/160213.
Change 159538 merged by jenkins-bot: Populate $features even if there aren't any requirements https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/159538
Underlying issue is only fixed by James's patch, but Seb35's patch has already fixed the display for the beta features I tested.
