File could not be saved error

[edit]

Hello, I'm a MyWikis user and I saw Special:<managenamespaces> come up in my special pages. I had a namespace added before and I was going to add another myself, but all I get is "The file could not be saved. Check if your syntax is correct." I get the same error even if I don't edit anything in the file as it currently exists and try to save. My json file looks like:

[
    {
        "id": 3000,
        "name": "Sandbox",
        "content": false
    }
]

Please advise. Thanks, Penguinaut 22 (talk) 00:03, 2 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

In my opinion, the extension should directly commit the changes to localsettings.php, because if a wiki is moved without the extension, all the namespaces added via this extension will cease to function until the extension is re-installed - This is particularly problematic with archiving. ManageWiki already does that (Though it is way too specific to Miraheze, due in part to the strange dependency to CreateWiki, for it to be helpful in a wiki environment) and I do not see why this extension should behave any differently from my point of view.
