the action seems to be case insensitive

This is not a real bug. But I found it quite confusing:

You always get the name of an action displayed as a link, although it is not installed.

• I guess this is simply because action macro does not check against installed actions.

Example

• Edit

  • (this is [[Action(Edit)]] (you get an error if you click)

• edit

  • (this is [[Action(edit)]]

• I suggest to display something that marks an action as illegal or not existant. It is not neccessary for the user to click on a non-existant action. So maybe Moin should either render this not as a link or link to an action-error page? -- ThiloPfennig 2006-09-13 08:26:35

  How about simply using the correct action name? Actions are case sensitive, not case insensitive.

  • You are certainly right Thomas, I did find that out, but I can imagine ppl that are not as smart as me will have trouble... I would give this a low priority also. Just wanted to mention. -- ThiloPfennig 2006-09-14 09:51:40

    • Note: At the moment lowercase written actions file names are generally not shown at the More Action list. This functionality is needed too -- ReimarBauer 2006-09-14 10:24:11

  Maybe the error is that you get a confusing message if you click on a non-existent action instead on a page that explains things and lets you go further.
