Since the MediaWiki update, the String Functions are not supported anymore!

The MediaWiki extension StringFunctions is not shown anymore in Special:Version#Installed extensions

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions

whereas it was previously, and lots of templates (more than one hundred) use that extension, which is one reason why so many templates, including the {{Math}} template, don't work anymore!

On https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:StringFunctions

This extension is obsolete. All of these functions are now integrated into the ParserFunctions extension, but are only available if an administrator sets $wgPFEnableStringFunctions = true; in LocalSettings.php.

Test: {{#replace:string|search term|replacement term}}

{{#replace: first prime number|prime|composite}} should yield

first composite number

but yields

first composite number

NOT SUPPORTED ANYMORE!

Test: {{#explode:string|delimiter|position}}

{{#explode: zero;one;two;three;four;five;|;|3}} should yield

three

but yields

three

NOT SUPPORTED ANYMORE!
