Admin Forum:Wg Variables

Hi. I've got a question relating to the MW 1.19 upgrade: Can we still use the same wg variables as on MW 1.16 wikis?

They currently work on MW1.19 because Wikia has thrown the "use globals" switch but it'll break when that switch is turned off. The correct way to access them is:  .
