[00:25:47] huh? [00:53:13] the page is not there. [00:53:35] https://fanon.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Bedrockiumball [00:58:36] Whole wiki seems to be down for me [00:58:53] Cannot Access database [00:59:10] unknown database polcomwiki [00:59:13] :ThinkerMH: [00:59:21] is db131 online? [01:00:21] Seems to be on grafana [01:01:17] @agentisai what do you make of this? Or is it working for you [01:05:29] Yeah, `polcomwiki` was deleted and that brought down a lot of ball wikis [01:05:37] Mentions of it have to be removed in ManageWiki settings [01:05:47] that is not ballin [01:05:52] What's that? [01:06:17] where would they even be referenced? [01:08:07] It was a 'commons' wiki that's as linked to a bunch of ball wikis and served as the central image repo [01:08:39] It would've been mentioned in a setting in Special:ManageWiki/settings -> Media -> Shared Repository or something like that [01:11:16] huh. More ya know [01:26:41] I removed everything and added a warning for the users to not edit it at the moment. I am keeping the text in a notepad. [01:30:24] @agentisai have a min [01:56:15] Images are back [01:56:23] thank you!! [01:57:20] # WOOOOOOOOO [01:57:24] W Paladox [01:57:46] Yay, nice job! [02:18:37] for the record the cause of the outage was another SSD failure, but should all be fixed now [02:44:59] yay images! [04:34:54] Thank you!! [04:41:58] uuuh I don't like this feature w/ channels ... like I already muted what doesn't interest me, but then it hides what I read ... [06:33:22] anyone awake an up for a couple of newbie questions? [07:27:57] I'm off for today, but it looks like you've already got the right idea and are making use of the Support forum -- our volunteers are spread all over the world, so getting help asynchronously is a great option esp. if you have several or more complicated questions. 🙂 [08:24:59] [1/2] Am I limited as a new user or something to that effect? Other than pasting text into a frame to create a basic text page, I keep geting errors. Error on links, cannot upload an image for my headshot. Im sorry if I sound frustrated...I've just been trying for hours thinking I must be doing something wrong. But it seems I am missing perhaps an understanding of my limitations at [08:25:00] [2/2] this time. [08:26:43] please check the support thread you have created, we tried to reply [08:27:25] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1196703462973513819 [10:13:42] I have asked a question in your thread. Please respond there. [11:13:50] any wikis here that have buttons that redirect to certain pages? i wanna learn from them [11:20:16] search game wikis, usually have lots of buttons [11:31:02] buttons are usually span or div elements w/ some CSS, complicity can range [11:31:56] [1/2] like [11:31:56] [2/2] `'''Click here!'''/span` [12:30:22] [1/2] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1194753759411183767 Still not working for me. [12:30:23] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1196793570150060133/image.png?ex=65b8ebde&is=65a676de&hm=8065e39a3ce1e6c4de4abfeba7b68373f79792d5d8b4e2ad24fbce458d9ec966& [12:30:44] Has been an issue for a while now [13:01:21] [1/2] So, I was editing my wiki, but when I went to preview, it threw up an error page "Sorry, this site is experiencing technical difficulties" and the reason it gives for the error is not being able to connect to database db142. [13:01:21] [2/2] Anyone else experiencing this? [13:01:57] Specifically, it said that the connection had been refused. [13:06:13] Try again then [13:06:33] I have been, it's still the same page. [13:06:59] @Site Reliability Engineers looks like db142 is down [13:07:38] it's back up [13:08:10] Cool [13:08:22] Yep. Just tried it again and it loaded. Y'all are quick! [13:09:21] Nah just got experience breaking server unions [14:52:06] hello, how do i contact? i've got an issue with my wiki [15:00:54] what kind of issue? [15:01:11] this is like main support channel, we might help if we can [15:01:57] if it's something beyond our capabilities then we'll ping some higher up volunteers or direct to contact stewards privately [15:15:52] so basically im not sure if this is a local issue [15:15:53] but [15:16:11] for me and my friend, an image broke on our wiki, literally only that image, we dont know how [15:16:14] all the other images are working [15:16:25] https://tbf.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Tower_battlefield.png this one stopped displaying for no reason [15:16:41] when i open it's static.miraheze link, it displays This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document you requested. [15:20:23] also while we're at it could i have a tutorial on how to change the heading font 🙏🙏i hate it [15:42:37] re: image, that's something for SRE (sysadmins) to check [15:45:10] [1/3] re: changing font - CSS [15:45:10] [2/3] you first need to find the font you like, I advice to use something free from Google Fonts, which can be easily imported to wiki's CSS w/o messing around w/ font files, it must be done on `MediaWiki:Common.css` page [15:45:10] [3/3] then you need to modify styling of the wiki, the code and implementation might depend on skin your wiki is using [15:50:05] oh ok tysm, i dont know how the code would look like tho [15:50:10] im using the default skin [15:51:53] i mean [15:51:55] implementation [16:04:48] [1/7] In MediaWiki:Common.css on your wiki it would be this to add, if its part of the already installed fonts on MediaWiki. If it's one you install yourself, I'm not 100% if there are extra steps involved. [16:04:48] [2/7] .firstHeading, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { [16:04:49] [3/7] font-family: ; [16:04:49] [4/7] } [16:04:49] [5/7] h3, h4, h5, h6 { [16:04:50] [6/7] font-family: ; [16:04:50] [7/7] } [16:05:06] [1/3] somehting like this [16:05:06] [2/3] `h1, h2, h3, h4, h5 { font-family: `name of the font` !important; }` [16:05:07] [3/3] but you need to add the font to ther wiki first [16:05:11] i did add it [16:05:20] im using vector 2022 the font i added is open sans [16:05:22] from google [16:05:41] then use the code Plat listed [16:05:46] ok, tysm [16:05:48] by the way [16:06:02] the image cant even delete itself, its bugged, is there any way it could be deleted by some admin? [16:06:08] i cant reupload it, nor can i delete it [16:06:51] [1/2] is there a way to make this untoggleable so the page is always wide? [16:06:51] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1196848046156304494/image.png?ex=65b91e9a&is=65a6a99a&hm=035d73ba121589439a73c56819d6c7ef87be2e76e69e9c6f474c4f9a8a9c6c97& [16:07:05] what skin that [16:07:05] ? [16:07:23] skin the wiki uses? [16:08:23] [1/2] what shall we do w/ these again? rhinos, anyone? [16:08:24] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1196848430849474651/2024-01-16_19_07_40.png?ex=65b91ef6&is=65a6a9f6&hm=7726804eddd556aee04e03c64055a06dc10d38d0b8ff124328793a1bd0860306& [16:08:29] yes [16:08:46] THE DEFAULT ONE i GUESS? [16:09:36] could you reupload it or delete it or something? cant really do anything with it now, its the game logo and cant even reupload/delete it [16:11:38] [1/3] we are having issues w/ file server due to old hardware, and currently preparing to migrate the system to new one [16:11:38] [2/3] further commentary or actions regarding this file can be done only by Miraheze, which seem to be offline rn [16:11:39] [3/3] in the meantime I suggest to upload a new file w/ different name [16:11:53] oh ok, tysm [16:11:58] *Miraheze tech team [16:12:27] No, we must preform the holy wiki ritual to awaken sentience in Miraheze herself [16:12:48] hiding button won't help as by default for every new visitor the width is small, you'll have fix the width in skin's CSS [16:13:16] so can we just make that the default width then? [16:13:40] yes, but I'm not sure how atm, I haven't worked w/ Vector 2022 that much [16:13:48] so uh sorry to annoy again but i get this when i reupload the image (i changed both the file name on my pc and the file name on miraheze) An unknown error occurred in storage backend "miraheze-swift"., is that also a hardware issue or? [16:14:05] most likely [16:14:08] sigh [16:14:29] shall we ping? [16:14:36] no point [16:14:47] They already know about the issue [16:15:32] nah I got this [16:15:42] I have some people who know CSS in my project [16:15:57] I was refering to purpyfind's file problem [16:16:04] 💀 [16:16:05] sorry [16:16:36] No worries [16:18:21] regarding the font change, i did this @import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=ital,wght@0,200;0,300;0,400;0,600;0,700;0,900;1,200;1,300;1,400;1,600;1,700;1,900 &display=swap'); [16:18:22] .firstHeading, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { [16:18:22] font-family: 'Open Sans'; [16:18:23] } [16:18:23] , would it be correct? i didnt put Open Sans in font-family in <> brackets cuz it gave me an error but idk if thats my problem or not [16:18:37] sorry im new to miraheze so i dont know alot [16:18:59] this is just general web coding stuff, no worries [16:20:38] did you marked all weigths options? [16:20:43] on google [16:21:18] hold on [16:21:30] `@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Open+Sans:ital,wght@0,300..800;1,300..800&display=swap')` [16:21:45] this should be enough, at least that what google gave me rn [16:22:00] I'm not sure you need the ' [16:22:16] i did it because it errored with <> [16:22:24] btw thanks groom [16:22:42] that's something new lol [16:22:49] The was just to illustrate what you needed to edit [16:23:02] OH [16:23:06] damn ok [16:23:08] thanks [16:23:10] didnt know mb [16:23:19] It's o [16:24:28] the 2fa banner now takes half of channels sidebar, and I can't just hide it lol [16:24:37] Lol [16:24:43] Uh [16:24:44] Sorry? [16:28:16] i hate adding phone number to accounts [16:28:40] I forgot you need phone for 2FA [16:29:08] Does the Auth code app alone not work? [16:29:40] so another problem (sorry lmao), it simply doesnt put the font on the heading. i tried doing ctrl+shift+r multiple times but it doesnt work, its the same code that i provided except with groom's import line [16:30:14] I'll be ok w/ Leg thank you lol [16:34:02] [1/4] .firstHeading { [16:34:02] [2/4] font-family: !important; [16:34:02] [3/4] } [16:34:02] [4/4] try doing that seperate instead. [16:35:13] It might take a little bit of time to show, but can show up quicker on an Incognito tab [16:36:10] oh ok sure [16:36:44] warning: use of !important appears, its nothing too serious right? [16:36:53] Thats fine [16:37:01] ok [16:37:04] holy shucks it finally worked [16:37:06] tysm dude [16:37:22] btw one last question, how would i change the width of the font? like the version, cuz the regular open sans is a lil bit too skinny [16:38:38] AND ONE MORE LAST QAUESTION I PROMISE, can i have the same tutorial to make regular text that same font, like just the regular text please i'd be grateful [16:41:11] [1/8] Just remember with CSS you can always undo whatever you've done, it'll just take some time for it to show. [16:41:11] [2/8] font-weight:bold; [16:41:12] [3/8] font-size:20px; [16:41:12] [4/8] within the parameter. [16:41:12] [5/8] For your second question, I believe it should be something like: [16:41:12] [6/8] #bodyContent { [16:41:13] [7/8] font-family: ; [16:41:13] [8/8] } [16:41:44] As well as any other actions you want to throw in there, should it not appear you can try adding !important again [16:52:25] [1/2] File uploads are turned off rn because of the issue with the server. [16:52:25] [2/2] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/407504500136607745/1196518162846453891 [16:53:33] the swift issue was fixed yesterday, uploads should be working fne [16:57:02] ok plat tysm, you and groom are the best people ever :D [16:57:19] btw thanks jph2, i figured it out (I dont know how to reply) [17:01:13] setting 2fa loged me out of mobile app :moonch: [17:05:34] Miraheze has a mobile app now? [17:05:58] discord I meant [17:06:55] On the way [17:34:31] Hello. I'm Rob, and new here. I'm a recent grad school student and wanting to create a wiki page to represent my artwork. Hope I can learn a bit from you all. It seems to not be as straight forward as I thought it would be. [17:38:09] people replied to your previous messages, please check your support thread [18:29:16] Ey y'all, how do you change the link/domain name? [18:29:47] Cuz I realized that I named my wiki (Series)Wiki which means that it probably won't show up if it's searched [18:30:28] I think you need to make a task on [[Phabricator]] [18:30:28] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Phabricator [18:30:28]

[18:30:54] You can change your wiki's sitename via Special:ManageWiki; as for subdomains, you need to create a Phabricator task as pixlDeV stated [18:41:03] Ah ok! [19:07:59] [1/2] Ok so like, I can change the site name but if I wanna change the link I have to make a task on Phabirciator? [19:07:59] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1196893626639319050/Screenshot_20240116-130649.png?ex=65b9490d&is=65a6d40d&hm=c4a28d16726291c48261019e5e99435376af47985594dc08dfc1ac3c52ab4b87& [19:08:03] Just wanting to confirm [19:08:18] Yes [19:08:22] Ah ok! [19:08:29] I'll do that as soon as I can [19:08:53] I'm trying to fix up stuff on it before I finish it up by uploading images [19:22:59] The sidebar at meta needs changing [19:23:19] I think there was smt kn CN or AN bout it [19:23:35] It says Community noticeboard, but now it is called Community Portal [19:24:17] but for Stewards' Noticeboard -> Steward requests [19:24:22] This is a different thing [19:50:41] Fixed, we should also consider retiring the similarly-named Meta Community portal. [19:50:53] heh [19:50:55] It's had vanishingly-little use over the years [19:51:10] I fought to restore it in 2023 \:P [19:51:23] during that time, there were a lot of pan-Meta discussions happening all over the place [19:54:20] I got the text for Bedrockiumball on the notepad on my computer. so that page can be saved. [19:55:15] So we have Community Portal, on Meta, and Meta Community Portal, on Meta? [19:58:08] Yep [19:58:19] For the reasons Agent mentioned above [21:15:36] how large can a file be before importing it to a wiki stops working? [21:17:04] Up to ~2 MB with Special:Import; RequestImportDump has a hard limit of 500MB before a Phabricator task has to be made [21:18:05] cause I'm trying to implement template pages which have a file size of like 759 kb to 825 kb and I keep getting a 504 timeout error [21:19:04] hm [21:19:17] it might just be a me issue tho [21:37:11] Known issue for Special:Import, though the new infrastructure will make a big difference in this once we move over. [21:38:11] [1/3] One thing you might see is that you get incrementally more out of the file each time before timeout. [21:38:11] [2/3] So, if you're really diligent, you might be able to forcibly upload it a little bit at a time, over and over again. [21:38:12] [3/3] The much easier option is just requesting an import dump though. 😄 [21:39:04]
