Hi, all, I'm trying to create a new kind of special page; if you have any
php that you'd be happy to share with a struggling neophyte to help me learn
the ropes please contact me! What I'm actually trying to do is create a new
user type (teacher) who will have a special page that lists all his/her
students, who will also be users...
If there's anyone doing something similar, let's talk.
Cheers,
andrea

Apparently this is what I'm referring to - I just set the title via
editing Mediawiki:MySpecialPage - thankyou!

Are you refering to SpecialPage::getDescription()? (Which, by default,
calls wfMsg() with the lowercase version of the page name. So if your
special page is called SomeSpecialPageIWrote, you would want to look
at [[MediaWiki:somespecialpageiwrote]].)

Yeah I'm aware that special pages are php (I
made one that's working
beautifully).
I'm just trying to figure out a way to give a new special page a title
without hard-coding it in PHP. I'm pretty sure there is a way to do it
(I looked through my old custom-made special page, and there isn't a
title in there - yet it still has the right title when I browse to
it).
I recollect it being something like this, but not quite like this:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Pagetitle
That appears to be for the HTML <title> tags. I assume you're talking
about the title at the top of the page.
Maybe I'm losing it :).
That's entirely possible. However, this is not an
authoritative source
in the areas of mental stability. ;)
