[00:22:31] Props to the person using Miraheze as their shopping list [[kog:Groceries-5-25-23]] [00:22:31] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/kog:Groceries-5-25-23 [00:22:31] [00:24:00] How does this bot work? [00:24:17] In terms of sending a wikilink to a random wiki that's not meta [00:24:29] This server seems to block using an actual URL for some reason [00:28:44] Are you writing the next Great American Novel? [00:32:37] [1/7] So yeah never used popups myself, so I don't want to promise anything, but according to the https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Popups, it does use the PageImages extension to get the image. And just know I found this interesting setting in "additional settings" for the wiki administration [00:32:37] [2/7] ```Overwrite PageImage (WikiSEO) ($wgWikiSeoOverwritePageImage) [00:32:37] [3/7] Enable if WikiSEO should overwrite the iamge set by extension PageImages. [00:32:38] [4/7] Requires: Extensions - pageimages, wikiseo``` (Also yeah that is a direct copy paste, seems to be a "iamge" misspelling there in managewiki xD) [00:32:38] [5/7] And I know that for wikiseo you can use the following parser function to pick the exact image you want for the page(WherePageImages doesn't have a similar option) [00:32:38] [6/7] `{{#seo:|image=imagename here}}` [00:32:38] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/%23seo:Template: [00:32:39] [7/7] So yeah no promises, if that will work, as I don't really have any way to easily test it myself for your usecase, but maybe worth a shot to try? [00:35:13] (Ofc the above requires that WikiSEO extension is enabled, so be sure to check if you have that enabled first) [01:32:24] You need to verify your wiki user with the bot using the `/auth` command before sending links in chat [01:42:25] [1/2] The autolink bot should pick up anything that's between a set of double opening and double closing square brackets, as you've done. [01:42:26] [2/2] Syntax for a non MH link is [[mh:subdomain:pagename]], but it only picks up what you do the first time, it won't find edits [01:42:26] https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/subdomain:pagename [01:42:26] [02:35:02] suddenly getting Internal error [string of numbers] date time: "Fatal exception of type "Error"" when trying to save edits. i was editing just fine not even an hour ago on my wiki. https://supersonicowiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page not sure whats causing it [02:35:24] Y'know, I was just about to post asking about that. Getting the same on my site. [02:37:05] My guess is it was caused by recent extension updates @MediaWiki Engineers ^ [02:37:14] same on my end [02:37:34] Can't edit, can't save, I was able to log out but can't log back in [02:38:07] MacFan4000 also ^ [02:38:52] i actually just reverted a bunch [02:39:16] Just refreshed, looks like the error's gone. Can save/edit. <:SeiranSalute:850876765735878677> [02:39:20] wikis are loading fine for me [02:39:32] can also save now. thank you! [02:43:07] Thanks, MacFan! [08:29:10] MacFan is a man, he does his job lovingly 😄 [17:25:51] <_AR1A#9993> Is there a guide for installing MediaWiki? [17:45:29] self hosting? [17:46:13] mediawiki.org is what you're looking for [17:46:31] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installing_MediaWiki [17:46:35] <_AR1A#9993> Yeah like adding themes to my wiki [17:47:14] That's a different question if you're talking about adding layouts to a wiki hosted by Miraheze [17:57:15] <_AR1A#9993> Yeah [17:57:35] <_AR1A#9993> I meant that I thought I had to install MediaWiki [17:57:40] go to extensions menu, skins tab [17:58:07] no, installing a MediaWiki is making a wiki on your own server, all alone [17:58:20] basically [17:58:36] <_AR1A#9993> Oh [17:58:54] <_AR1A#9993> So how I install skins that aren’t apart of the default selection [17:59:14] ^ [17:59:25] Navigate to Manage Extensions >> Skins, select the ones you want to install, and then save changes/. [17:59:38] <_AR1A#9993> It’s that easy? [17:59:41] <_AR1A#9993> God Damn [17:59:44] yes [17:59:48] After you've done so, you can change defaults and other skin-specific settings via Manage Additional Settings >> Appearance [18:00:02] on Miraheze the majority of features can be switched on/off [18:00:15] <_AR1A#9993> Wait a minute Dark Cosmos isn’t there [18:00:16] <_AR1A#9993> Uh oh [18:00:20] <_AR1A#9993> I think I did something wrong [18:01:18] Unfortunately there's only a handful of skins that are pre-approved and able to be 1-click installed in this way. [18:01:37] <_AR1A#9993> And the rest are unavailable [18:01:39] <_AR1A#9993> Oh that’s ok [18:01:55] Yep, you can submit new ones for review, but it looks like DarkCosmos hasn't been updated since 2020 [18:02:06] <_AR1A#9993> Damn [18:02:27] <_AR1A#9993> I really wanted to make a skin where it was basically a dark version of timeless [18:02:30] <_AR1A#9993> That was closed one I found [18:03:48] <᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼#9051> [1/3] ```ansi [18:03:49] <᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼#9051> [2/3] You guys are all so funny [18:03:49] <᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼#9051> [3/3] ``` [18:03:56] <᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼᲼#9051> <:EpicFaceMH:912930767972225095> [18:04:51] you can modify any skin via CSS tho [18:05:29] <_AR1A#9993> Oh yeah I think I know how to do that [18:05:42] <_AR1A#9993> It’s MediaWiki:Timeless.css right? [18:06:10] yes [18:07:28] <_AR1A#9993> How do we change the background from hues of white to our color of choice? [18:13:41] [1/3] you see, the look of majority of sites is defines by CSS, same w/ wikis [18:13:41] [2/3] you gotta check page's code w/ element inspector (browser tool, right click - "Inspect element") and fin a class or id which is responsible for background [18:13:42] [3/3] a lot of things can be changed this way, and there's plenty of free CSS tutorials onile [18:13:43] but [18:14:01] Cosmos skin lets change colors right in setting, w/o CSS [18:14:13] <_AR1A#9993> [1/2] Wait nevermind I found out how [18:14:13] <_AR1A#9993> [2/2] I’ve actually coded something similar to this [18:14:24] <_AR1A#9993> Cosmos is one of our alts [20:37:15] popups [21:57:27] Hey I still can't get anything from changing the theme of my stuff. [21:57:32] IDK what's going on. [23:04:59] what do you mean by theme, please be more specific
