[03:17:27] that seems to be either a different translation extenstion or an older version, sorry i have not used this one. [03:57:24] any1? [04:29:12] [1/2] I think the class `.pi-title` [04:29:13] [2/2] then `text-align: center;` [05:23:07] what abt headers [05:45:25] pi-header, I guess [05:45:40] look up the classes w/ element inspector [08:52:12] hello [08:52:21] does this service offer galleries? [09:07:58] @theoneandonlylegroom [09:40:36] why tag me ......... [09:41:46] [1/3] wdym by galleries? [09:41:46] [2/3] the `` tag is available on all MediaWiki instances [09:41:46] [3/3] but the slider mode (four big images w/ heavy captions) is Fandom exclusive [09:42:18] i see. any example of gallery? [09:42:42] how many pictures can i put in them [09:43:01] can i put 256 pics in one page gallery? [09:43:26] [[mw:Help:Images#Rendering a gallery of images]] [09:43:26] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images#Rendering_a_gallery_of_images [09:43:27]

[09:43:47] excellent. thank you [09:43:55] are tooltips maybe supported [09:44:04] on hover [09:44:42] depends [09:45:06] on what [09:47:25] [1/3] there is basic tooltip, like very basic, from HTML [09:47:25] [2/3] I believe in case of wiki galleries `|alt=` provides it (I'm on mobile so can't check) [09:47:26] [3/3] if we talk about fancy looking tooltips, it's more complicated and most likely will require CSS, JS and template coding [09:52:46] there's also [[Extension:SimpleTooltip]] but it's outdated/unmaintained and kinda looks poor [09:52:46] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Extension:SimpleTooltip [09:52:48]

[09:53:01] ah fuck [09:53:31] [[mw:Extension:SimpleTooltip]] [09:53:31] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SimpleTooltip [09:53:32]

[09:55:26] and there's is also [[mw:Extension:Popups]] which creates previews of pages as tooltips [09:55:26] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Popups [09:55:27]

[10:00:58] @theoneandonlylegroom is there a way to see who is owner off certain wiki [10:01:07] so one can contact him to implement [10:01:23] there's no such thing as "owner" of the wiki, just admins [10:01:35] ok. admin of certain wiki [10:01:57] like creator of it [10:03:18] go to Special:ListUsers page and in group drop-down check Bureaucrat and/or Administrator [10:04:07] I'd like to thank you for all your answers. You very very helpful. [10:04:15] np [13:51:22] i wish i knew how to do smth like this with images in infoboxes [14:10:58] [1/2] if you use portable infobox, instead of `` it would be [14:10:58] [2/2] `[[File:{{{flag}}}|100px|left]] [[File:{{{coat}}}|70px|right]]/navigation` [14:10:58] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bflag https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bcoat%7d%7d%7dhttps://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bflag%7d%7d%7d https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bcoat%7d%7d%7d [14:14:14] do i insert that into a regular page or into the infobox's source code [14:16:10] [1/2] ofc infobox source [14:16:11] [2/2] > instead of `` [14:18:08] so i did it and this.. is not what i wanted to happen [14:18:13] this is the template btw https://thedualhorizon.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:World_infobox [14:19:00] I put the "flag" and "coat of arms" because I wanted it to say "flag" below the image of the flag like in that screenshot of the russia wikipedia article [14:19:59] yeah, but you provided the `flag` and `coat` values? [14:20:06] you need to give them filenames [14:20:45] Only flag (see here https://thedualhorizon.miraheze.org/wiki/Coria) [14:21:31] and the code obviously shouldn't be appearing if there's no flag or coat of arms [14:22:30] well of course because I didn't know that you don't have image for coat [14:23:25] if you want one or another to be optional, you gotta wrap them in `{{#if` function [14:23:33] okay [14:24:19] `{{#if: {{{coat|}}}|[[File:{{{coat|}}}|`...`]]}}` [14:24:19] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/%23if:Template:_%7b%7b%7bcoat https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bcoathttps://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:%7b%7b%7bcoat [14:25:23] wait like this? [14:27:09] no ... [14:27:21] please look carefully [14:28:14] also maybe you won't need `left` and `right` [14:28:18] im really confused why are there two coats and what am i supposed to put in place of the three dots [14:28:54] [1/2] `#if` is a parser function [14:28:55] [2/2] think of this like low level programming [14:29:12] the first part is what the function should look at [14:29:27] in this case `{{{coat|}}}` parameter [14:29:27] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bcoat [14:29:54] then you tell the function what should it do if parameter is provided [14:30:27] in this case, it would add the `File:` construction w/ filename you listed in parameter on normal page [14:32:04] [1/3] im gonna be honest [14:32:04] [2/3] i have no knowledge on how programming works [14:32:04] [3/3] i just want my wiki to look nice [14:32:06] if you didn't provide coat filename, nothing will be added [14:32:11] i did [14:32:18] wait hold on [14:32:34] and I'm explaining you how this works ... so you understand what are you doing [14:32:57] and then you can do this w/ as little errors as possible [14:33:21] this is what i got.. im really sorry if im causing any stress [14:33:40] please look carefully at the code [14:33:49] you wrote it differently [14:33:51] like [14:34:07] just copy the coat code and replace coat w/ flag [14:34:08] i wrote it as `{{#if:{{{flag|}}}|[[File:{{{flag|}}}|]}}` [14:34:08] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/%23if:Template:%7b%7b%7bflag [14:34:13] thats what i did [14:34:29] the screenshot begs to differ [14:34:37] please refresh the page then [14:34:48] still the same [14:35:52] wait nvm [14:35:57] i think i missed a ] at the end [14:36:25] yeah i did [14:36:50] this is what i get now [14:38:36] Is there anything going on with importing XML files right now? [14:38:49] Noticing mine is stuck on pending for a day now [14:53:34] [1/2] you left stray `|` which breaks the function [14:53:34] [2/2] I've added `100px` after it so it works now [14:55:47] [1/3] for your consideration [14:55:47] [2/3] [[mw:Help:Templates]] [14:55:47] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates [14:55:47] [3/3] [[mw:Extension:ParserFunctions]] [14:55:47] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ParserFunctions [14:55:48]

[1/2] [14:55:48]

[2/2] [14:55:51] tech staff is a little stretched atm. they prioritize tasks based on importance/number of users affected. as for import requests, they will get handled as time allows and in order of requests. [14:55:54] Ah [14:57:03] i see, the flag/coat of arms should be centered in the absence of one or the other though [14:57:19] as seen here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achaemenid_Empire [14:57:30] I'd advise to modify CSS [14:57:55] but otherwise wrap the thing in a centered block [14:58:02] atm I can't help [14:58:11] omw home [14:59:58] did that and it worked [15:00:37] but one last thing I'd like is a text beneath the flag saying flag [15:00:51] but it'd be better if it was custom [15:01:05] like you decide whether it says flag or something else [15:04:36] Random quick question [15:04:47] Is there a way to export all images you uploaded in a mediawiki at once [15:04:56] Into a zip file or something along those lines [15:12:05] @theoneandonlylegroom who can install tooltip if no admin is present [15:12:09] i cant right? [15:13:13] please don't tag me specifically, I'm not the only volunteer here and anyone might be busy w/ irl stuff [15:13:54] depends on what tooltip you decided to use, from what I listed earlier [15:14:07] simple tooltip [15:14:14] from github [15:31:29] how do i edit a page's background? i tried doing anything with the skins page but i dont think it actually changes anything. i cant just or anything like that because this isnt HTML im used to [15:33:35] [1/3] All the style can be done with CSS language. [15:33:36] [2/3] You can test the styling on your browser console. [15:33:36] [3/3] On the console click on the box and is highlighted on the browser and the text of the code is written on the window [15:33:50] ohhh mizahere is CSS? thank you! [15:34:44] The background has a CSS class. Something like class= body [15:34:57] But i don't remember the name [15:48:37] am i just stupid or does it not work with < > [15:50:51] <> is for HTML tags [15:50:56] Let me check something [15:51:05] oohhhhh [15:54:15] [1/7] This is an example [15:54:15] [2/7] ```body { [15:54:15] [3/7] margin: 0; [15:54:16] [4/7] background: #000; [15:54:16] [5/7] color: #E8E8F0; [15:54:16] [6/7] font-family: "Trebuchet MS", "Helvetica", sans-serif; [15:54:17] [7/7] }``` [15:54:41] Body is the CSS class, and margin, background, color are CSS atributes [15:54:51] ooooooooooooooooohhhhhh [15:55:07] You can test this on a live version if you "inspect" your page with the browser "inspect element" [15:55:25] The "inspect element" is not saved, but works as a live test [15:55:54] i only know how to code in html so im kind of confused, where do i put the code? since i cant put it on top of the page's textfile [15:56:01] deffinetly going to go and learn css after this [15:56:11] it sounds interesting [15:56:54] [1/2] In Mediawiki:Common.css [15:56:54] [2/2] Or Mediawiki:Skinname.css [15:57:10] ohhh thats what those are for [15:57:14] thank you again!!! [15:57:40] https://www.w3schools.com/css/ [16:00:27] [1/2] The syntax is like `body{margin:o;background:#000;}` [16:00:27] [2/2] But people use different line to make it clearer [16:01:32] im really sorry, im new to mizahere, where is the Mediawiki:Common.css? do i have to put this in a link? [16:01:44] i thought i knew at first [16:01:58] [[Mediawiki:Common.css]] [16:01:58] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Mediawiki:Common.css [16:01:59]

[16:02:25] By default your page is empty. You need to click on "create" or edit [16:04:16] You can look at the page of meta to see how it looks [16:04:28] wait is it wikiname.miraheze.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css [16:04:31] And use w3schools or other pages to look for tutorials [16:04:33] probably is [16:04:44] Yes. Is that [16:05:01] biggest thanks to you man [16:14:44] yes, only admin can enable it [16:16:28] [1/2] insert a parameter instead of caption, like `...|100px|{{{flagcaption}}}]]` [16:16:28] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bflagcaption [16:16:29] [2/2] if you want it to say "Flag" by default, then `{{{flagcaption|Flag}}}` [16:16:29] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7bflagcaption [16:17:18] so if you haven't provided `flagcaption =`, infobox will put just "Flag" [16:17:36] that's what i was looking for, thanks [16:19:06] [1/3] you can, but it depends on platform [16:19:07] [2/3] on Miraheze you can request a file dump [16:19:07] [3/3] Fandom doesn't give file dumps so you'll have to use a third party program, like scrapper script [16:19:39] Gotcha ty [16:23:54] so i inserted that into the infobox source code but there's no caption showing up.. https://thedualhorizon.miraheze.org/wiki/Coria [16:24:00] unless it's like serverside cache [16:24:33] but i dont think it is bc i went to edit source to see if it showed up and it didnt [16:26:50] I see now [16:27:19] there seems to be some bug when saving an edit as for recent, I get it too [16:33:11] ah wait, my bad [16:33:30] caption appear in `thumb` mode, needs to be done differently [16:48:27] added it as separate thing, outisde of `File:` [16:49:09] if you gonna add coat, then more stuff has to be coded [16:59:50] i've managed to edit the backmost part of the page but i cant seem to figure out if .mv-page-container is the frontmost part of the page or not, because it doesnt change color [17:00:16] anybody know whats the name of the frontmost part of the page? [17:00:35] which skin? [17:00:55] wait it depends on the skin i've picked? [17:01:21] yes, skins might differ in some parts [17:01:41]
