[00:03:49] why is a {{Documentation}} template called for a template rather than the templates /doc directly? [00:03:49] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Documentation [00:03:50] [00:04:51] im looking around on it but i don't quite understand why or how to do it [00:06:13] what are you trying to do? [00:07:03] the documentation template simply transcludes contents from the /doc subpage onto what displays on a template page. it's intended to keep the "instructions" separate from the template itself. [00:07:31] is there any difference in doing that over just calling the /doc subpage itself? [00:10:23] [1/3] i think just some formatting might be the key difference. [00:10:23] [2/3] it's not actually necessary to separate the documentation from the template, especially if it's a simple template. [00:10:23] [3/3] but if including documentation on the template page itself, be sure to wrap it in ` ... /noinclude` tags. [00:11:33] aah ok, ty! and will do [00:13:15] that box like formatting [00:28:47] [1/2] is there something missing? [00:28:48] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215093758367109160/Screenshot_20240306_192818_Chrome.png?ex=65fb7f3f&is=65e90a3f&hm=4e05d899efdf56db271ab247cfaeefeb1d950671d89cd63d94b58eb3d2f140a0& [00:38:15] i suspect so since it shouldn't be displaying `/syntaxhighlight` but it probably won't inhibit using the template if you want. [00:38:33] i'm not able to dig into it atm to try to figure out why [00:38:51] There might be a without a /nowiki [00:39:06] Have a link for me?

[01:32:29] I think Wikipeida uses common.css and a lot of template styles stuff [01:36:04] IDK how Wikipeida does it, maybe in common.css, using TemplateSyles, or in a skin css, but I use a Vector.css thing to do my colums [01:39:44] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_featured_list [01:39:53] I wanna do this [01:43:02] but for FurrNations [01:55:07] https://furrnations.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:FurrNations:Today%27s_featured_article [01:57:15] @tali64 Any idea why darrellx is havng such problems? [01:58:09] A lot of people have issues with main page designs, whether it's trying to fix a flew in their current design or just making one in general [01:59:22] Just wondered if you could help them [02:02:21] it really wants me to use visualeditor to look which I hate with a passion [02:09:02] I wanna the main page look like Wikipedia [02:09:26] but with furry micronational articles and facts [02:10:01] guys [02:10:33] you know how wikipedia main page has a "on this day" page [02:10:36] how do i make one [02:11:10] yeah also I wanna do that [02:11:32] but reflecting any furry mockgov fact or something [02:14:15] nvm i gave up [02:16:51] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215120950840786964/image.png?ex=65fb9892&is=65e92392&hm=22329589018f626cc9d0a22558061fcd3b726082901496dd5cef1433497a2ee9& [02:16:59] I just wanna add this [02:21:36] oh ok [02:41:44] [1/2] finnally [02:41:45] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215127216648618035/image.png?ex=65fb9e68&is=65e92968&hm=87310b275a433a7c21dc2c0af46c4f75082933d5bc0dc64696b474253a23c225& [02:42:42] infobox looks correct [02:45:07] no?

[03:40:38] Hmm not sure [03:50:41] Well you'd need 366 different subpages of the main page (365 normal days + leap day) and then you choose between them based on the day [03:50:51] Maybe Lua has something that can tell the time? [03:51:04] Idk it might be in normal wikitext too [04:27:12] it's cached... you may see something else at this moment [06:20:28] is there a global sandbox wiki like https://gg.wiki.gg? [06:20:45] cuz i'd think it would be a cool idea [06:21:07] (except in the case of Fandom, there was a community test wiki, which was closed years ago due to excessive spam and vandalism) [06:22:06] I think there is: https://publictestwiki.com [06:22:51] ah nice [10:52:14] testwiki? that is an interesting site! [11:07:04] can any of you check this template? i probably missed something: https://miaruniverse.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:CC-BY-SA-4.0 [11:07:13] the images aren't working [11:11:35] images don't work by plugging a url into it, it has to be `[[File:(file name)]]`, so it would be `File:CC_some_rights_reserved.svg` instead of `https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CC_some_rights_reserved.svg` [11:11:35] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/File:(file_name) [11:13:19] besides that, this work best with InstantCommons enabled [11:23:55] Do wiki requests have to be written in English? [11:24:02] Or can they be written in any language? [11:24:26] any language tbh [11:26:36] english would be best recognized but native is best if someone's understanding of english isn't there [11:26:47] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215259348343988294/image.png?ex=65fc1977&is=65e9a477&hm=52ff1c2ceb5ebd25680aa96271791d8fc4585d3ea7bcd71e82f05e8a768d423a& [11:27:10] also, there's a way to hide the name of the page? [11:27:29] For only that page or for all? [11:27:41] that page only [11:28:12] the NoTitle extension can be used for that [11:28:32] Can that be configured to only remove the title on one page? [11:28:39] yes [11:29:00] it's a magic word so yes [11:29:10] enabled [11:29:48] Now you just gotta put the magic word in the page [11:30:19] [1/2] this isn't wrong but a wiki creator is the one who should be making official sounding recommendations about someone's wiki request [11:30:20] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215260239679590411/image.png?ex=65fc1a4b&is=65e9a54b&hm=575993380a7e8ab2ef463e5d0ae5daa28aba7f904c829140b318e7c56c0112aa& [11:31:06] ...and now that I actually check out the link it sort of is wrong because that existing wiki is explicitly marked as being deprecated and basically an archive [11:31:48] what a wild trip, you go to the 'replacement' and it's an anpang link that doesn't resolve [11:32:25] that partially illustrates why I sometimes dislike referring people to existing wikis because they reserve a broad scope with completely janky management practices that are hard to dislodge [11:32:30] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215260788483297321/image.png?ex=65fc1ace&is=65e9a5ce&hm=73da55b4053fa1b6f58d29e7d07d9b2040479be5516c3358babdeab0ec7a9316& [11:32:40] it worked [11:33:10] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215260956624556053/image.png?ex=65fc1af6&is=65e9a5f6&hm=f4e021c4e5bfc4e0d20682dc2645a89a7245e531d201f637e233eb34671c1c9e& [11:33:35] more or less it looks like wikipedia [11:36:33] now add the featured article [11:36:38] the news [11:36:43] the did you know [11:36:57] (the difficult) [11:37:39] might be worth making into a little guide and posting on devwiki tbh, I don't think you're the first person who's tried to wrangle something like that yet it happens from scratch every time [11:37:48] and it's clearly a popular format for people's main pages [11:41:27] yup [11:41:55] [1/2] is there a way to fix the images?

[13:23:52] [1/8] When you just copy and past a Wikipedia Frontpage, you're in for a whole lot of trouble ๐Ÿ˜„ [13:23:52] [2/8] My frontpage uses at least 10 pages, including styles. [13:23:53] [3/8] They are transcluded. [13:23:53] [4/8] A featured article, is just a normal article, of which you make a short description of in a template, with a small image. That get's transcluded in the Featured article box on your Main Page. [13:23:53] [5/8] Even I need to have them in a separate map, just to keep track of what is transcluded from where ๐Ÿ˜„ [13:23:54] [6/8] So if you want to do this each month or week or day, you have to be dedicated to keep doing that. [13:23:54] [7/8] The best thing is, to see what is used on the Main page, what kind of templates are used, and copy them over, and replace the "content" from Wikipedia with your own. [13:23:54] [8/8] I cannot guide you through that step by step, as this would take too much time. It would be better to just keep it simple, and edit the content directly in the different boxes on your main page. [13:28:38] This ^ [13:32:16] it's also the reason why i created my mediawiki that is basic and then recreate them from the groundup [13:33:36] in general wikis could benefit a lot from keeping things to the tech level they can support; at large scale something wikipedia style exists for a reason but yet there is also a reason why that is wikipedia and not something a single wiki should or necessarily even can maintain [13:34:05] [1/8] Can I give you a tip? [13:34:05] [2/8] You are not a Marathon runner. You start slowly with a short distance, and you slowly increase the distance. [13:34:05] [3/8] With a lot of practice, AND dedication, you can become a Marathon runner. [13:34:06] [4/8] The same with making a Wiki. [13:34:06] [5/8] You want a great attractive looking wiki. But you have to learn yourself how to do that. [13:34:06] [6/8] It needs dedication, practice (in sandboxes) and determination. [13:34:06] [7/8] You will achieve it when you keep at it. Not by everyone telling you what to do next. [13:34:07] [8/8] We can guide you in the bigger picture, but you need to do it yourself, for as the time comes - and it will come - that problems arrive, you know where to look and how to solve them, and how to maintain it, or how to alter it to your liking. [13:34:31] so for featured pages I'd stick to simple transclusions or editing in/updating blurbs [13:35:36] i agreed with Ro, that is how i'm doing at the moment [13:36:27] [1/2] And a real life example is: [13:36:28] [2/2] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/615786602454581249/1213557102531059732 [13:36:32] start with small task, slowly building them until you reach the greater goal [13:36:53] Yep, I built it sinces 2019 [13:37:39] removing `grid-area: content;` seems to fix your footer btw :ThinkerMH: [13:37:39] look at my novels for example, i started writing it since 2008 now, it became much more refined and it just only started since 2016 [13:37:59] is that so? [13:38:02] interesting [13:38:08] i will check that out [13:38:20] nice [13:39:28] bruh it didn't XD [13:42:13] likely cache? [13:42:36] it did but still doesn't change [13:42:45] however, it centered the whole thing [13:42:56] global wiki css can take some time to apply properly as well [13:43:05] indeed [13:43:20] thought, it's not global wiki css since it's vector.css [13:43:44] ah! there it goes [13:44:14] anything that's mediawiki: and skin related I mean as global [13:44:31] whereas if tested in userspace changes are instant [13:45:49] i see [13:48:06] look like there is alot of traffic at the moment [13:48:56] [1/2] alright, i'm pleased: [13:48:56] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215295119478104114/image.png?ex=65fc3ac7&is=65e9c5c7&hm=3c135e4688e93e543ed6f42e1e46304efdc8b5e90ce8dece1dc41f58dd831e29& [13:49:15] there is lot of wasted space though [13:50:16] now i need to figure out how to avoid that kind of bug with the mix-blend-mode in the body... because on my local wiki, it worked but not on the server [13:51:13] [1/2] otherwise, it would look like this: [13:51:13] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215295694403936256/image.png?ex=65fc3b50&is=65e9c650&hm=c3447c40f89a3a2beaf758c2cb3d5b336f73d10916e4e48507b72b5f4a786263& [13:51:23] and that is super annoying [13:53:49] the new content policy is now hot [13:54:16] that's the sort of thing we need a dedicated news feed for tbh [13:57:00] server slow down? [14:02:01] [1/12] hm apparently it was due to that code: ```css [14:02:01] [2/12] .vector-feature-zebra-design-disabled html { [14:02:02] [3/12] background: repeat repeat url(https://grainy-gradients.vercel.app/noise.svg); [14:02:02] [4/12] height: 100%; [14:02:02] [5/12] } [14:02:03] [6/12] ``` [14:02:03] [7/12] but it should have been this: ```css [14:02:03] [8/12] .vector-feature-zebra-design-disabled.client-js.vector-sticky-header-enabled { [14:02:03] [9/12] background: repeat repeat url(https://grainy-gradients.vercel.app/noise.svg); [14:02:04] [10/12] height: 100%; [14:02:04] [11/12] } [14:02:05] [12/12] ``` but it's still invisible... [14:03:53] yup it's slowed down [14:19:47] That is a pretty intersing Vector 2022 there [14:23:26] because it's done with vector 2022 [14:23:37] and i like styling it [14:25:24] Wonder how easy it would be to add a element to use some of the space [14:25:47] agreed thought, i will keep it simple for now [14:26:44] [1/2] there is also this method: [14:26:44] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215304633254285392/image.png?ex=65fc43a3&is=65e9cea3&hm=41dc2294f921b9013bdc290b7eb225096e09105cdbac4c73955174e9f2f0a7c0& [14:26:50] tiny bug though [14:27:30] I prefer it like that [14:29:03] I think it would look nice if the header, main content area and foot was all the same wideness [14:32:16] It's the problem with vector 2022 as that space is reserved for the sidebar. [14:32:40] Why is there a big space on the other side then? [14:32:58] Vector 2022 has the sidebar on both sides [14:33:41] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215306384183267369/image.png?ex=65fc4545&is=65e9d045&hm=e9264e7112c8871b8734751431ed3c09b56c164cf0e954a160686f56ef256a7c& [14:34:05] ew [14:34:08] The tools, admin links and personal.js links are on the right side [14:34:30] EW??

[15:20:44] [1/3] Oh gasp! [15:20:45] [2/3] I have to replace```
    ``` with ```
    ``` [15:20:45] [3/3] Manually, as I have substituted all these articles ๐Ÿ˜„ [15:20:56] hehe [15:21:10] anyway, another video that demonstrate it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niBGf6702_0 [15:22:02] [1/2] That means all these articles ๐Ÿ˜ญ [15:22:03] [2/2] https://jwmeeting.miraheze.org/wiki/Scandinavia#Map [15:22:14] aw XD [15:22:43] Then I'd rather change the skin ๐Ÿ˜› [15:22:50] hahaha [15:23:05] It's several 100 pages [15:23:10] oof [15:23:15] Or a Robot has to do it for me [15:23:29] Anyone with a robot present? [15:24:33] https://tenor.com/view/i-am-robot-dancing-funny-gif-14355392 [15:24:47] joke aside, no idea [15:25:11] there's pywiki bot? [15:25:23] or auto wiki browser, which isn't not a robot [15:30:42] I've never done that before. So how do I go about that? [15:32:18] the thing w/ AWB is that you'll have manually confirm every edit still [15:32:48] like you can set up replace function, then filter needed pages [15:33:06] but you kinda preview and confirm every edit [15:33:17] pywikibot just goes, but I never used it [15:36:20] Maybe you could use some automated browser like puppeteer? [15:39:59] AWB would work perfectly for that string of text as it has an autosave function, if there's anything specific around that string you could use as well, I would recommend it. [15:43:28] I still have to manually input all the pages in there do I? [15:43:35] Maybe, yes [15:43:42] I mean, the names of the pages [15:43:53] You can generate it in AWB yourself [15:44:17] But if it can't get it right, You may have to put it in a text file then use it to add to the page list [15:44:34] Source > Special Pages > All pages will give you the entire wiki. [15:44:45] unless there's a specific category or template you can transclude from [15:45:01] Hmm, yeah [15:45:33] Category:Kingdom Hall in .... [15:45:34] [1/4] You have Advanced settings which allows for line breaks, so if say thats the start of a section you could have [15:45:34] [2/4] ==Header== [15:45:34] [3/4] [15:45:35] [4/4] so it'll specifically target that string [15:54:22] [1/2] It will collide with the other skins. [15:54:22] [2/2] Hmmm [15:54:28] https://jwmeeting.miraheze.org/wiki/Trysil_Kingdom_Hall?useskin=metrolook [15:55:22] https://jwmeeting.miraheze.org/wiki/Trysil_Kingdom_Hall?useskin=monobook [15:55:49] okay, someone walks in asking about wikipedia templates give them the good ole [15:55:52] [[wikipedia]] [15:55:52] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/wikipedia [15:55:53] [15:56:31] g r e a t [15:57:06] getting the content policy and conservator up now [15:59:00] https://jwmeeting.miraheze.org/wiki/Trysil_Kingdom_Hall?useskin=timeless This looks okay [16:03:11] Do you guys dig it too?

[16:06:45] interesting. but for me Citizen is my wife now lol [16:06:57] Whahaha [16:07:55] [1/2] Problem with citizen is, that the Geo location is so far up, it's not evenvisible ๐Ÿ˜„ [16:07:55] [2/2] https://jwmeeting.miraheze.org/wiki/Trysil_Kingdom_Hall?useskin=citizen [16:08:00] lol [16:08:16] it's hard to make it compatable for every skins [16:09:07] the sidebar need some fixes lol XD [16:09:23] Another problem is that the Maps, goes Over the menu ๐Ÿ˜„ [16:09:42] that's why I either use only a skin as a default, or extensively modified using CSS [16:09:45] [1/2] unforeseen bug: [16:09:45] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215330557265842206/image.png?ex=65fc5bc8&is=65e9e6c8&hm=ea5e41cf7ad8f43140410ff8dadcc63fc9841cb6b810dd96dfda978da2f45010& [16:09:59] Yeah, just wrote that above [16:10:00] lmaoberg [16:10:04] I think I would recommend capitalising โ€œTrysilโ€, once in the first paragraph and once at the end [16:10:07] i just noticed XD [16:10:21] lol [16:10:30] talk about my own wc request tho, I still like to hear what is the final decision for it whiles I'm on my night [16:10:58] That's not the way you do it on an Encyclopaedia [16:11:00] @rodejong you should check the video i suggested for the dropdown menu, try using inspector and edit it [16:11:36] especially if you want to keep the sidebar tiddy [16:11:50] Isnt Trysil a place name? [16:11:59] I watched it. And apart from the funny accent, he is quite clear, but still talking as if he was talking in hieroglyphs [16:12:05] Yes, In Norway [16:12:30] Then why shouldnโ€™t it me capitalised? [16:12:58] Using capitals is seen as SHOUTING. [16:13:12] same [16:13:31] I meant like โ€œTrysil, Norwayโ€ rather than โ€œtrysil, Norwayโ€ [16:13:36] I was drilled by the Wikipedia folks to never use capitals!

[17:48:58] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215355525319893072/image.png?ex=65fc7309&is=65e9fe09&hm=217e7cdedaa5712acac3093698ce0e067ee2c1b6fdde48a051085ac1968f1f03& [17:49:52] that explain why i couldn't see any grainy stuff [18:01:02] refused is a way to put it [18:06:54] [1/7] solved the problem: instead of a direct link, i used this way ```css [18:06:55] [2/7] html { [18:06:55] [3/7] background: url("data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg viewBox='0 0 250 250' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%3E%3Cfilter id='noiseFilter'%3E%3CfeTurbulence type='fractalNoise' baseFrequency='0.65' numOctaves='3' stitchTiles='stitch'/%3E%3C/filter%3E%3Crect width='100%25' height='100%25' filter='url(%23noiseFilter)'/%3E%3C/svg%3E"); [18:06:55] [4/7] background-repeat: repeat; [18:06:55] [5/7] background-size: 200px, 200px; [18:06:56] [6/7] height: auto; [18:06:56] [7/7] }``` [18:08:12] perfect, it worked: https://miaruniverse.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [19:03:33] i did a few fixes now, the background is much softer! [19:03:54] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215374383464456302/image.png?ex=65fc8499&is=65ea0f99&hm=40d6ee58ae9a357a1528a1eb7c7bac0e03b0a5c04f297f53c7e24df87f3efa28& [19:04:07] i like it alot so far! [19:11:23] now that i fixed a bunch of problem, here the spoiler alerts boxes example: https://miaruniverse.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Spoiler [19:59:35] [1/3] can someone please help me make a tag#timeline thingy [19:59:35] [2/3] I've been trying to edit the one I have but I don't know how [19:59:35] [3/3] it's important for my wiki [20:00:19] If so pls ping me [20:34:09] Do you have the Timeline extension enabled? [20:35:55] [1/2] I'm not sure, how can I check? [20:35:55] [2/2] I have a timeline that someone made for me a while ago but I don't know how to add to it [20:47:41] On Special:version or Special:ManageWiki/extension [20:51:03] I have easy timeline enabled [20:58:32] You should provide a link [21:00:42] here or should i make a support thing [21:01:21] Better to do it in a Support thread ๐Ÿ‘ [21:05:09] ok thanks [21:20:22] done [21:22:36] Is it better to encode SVGs in base64 when using background-image? It's always been easier but idk if doing it the other way is better [21:29:44] In the future, itโ€™s not a big deal either way as this is also generally a support channel. But works either way. [21:30:15] ok thanks [21:41:34] Ah right, i forgot it does have a potential security breach with it. [21:41:45] Gotta convert it [21:47:01] [1/3] I haven't made a wiki from the ground-up in a long while. I'm missing some essential module (or extension?) that applies CSS for infoboxes and message boxes and stuff like that. I remember a long time ago (back in 2017), when creating a wiki I had to add a module that was VERY large, but it made everything work, like having an outline for infoboxes, having the infobox or any text on [21:47:01] [2/3] the left/centre/middle etc, change background colors for things and whatnot. [21:47:02] [3/3] Does anyone know what I'm talking about? ๐Ÿ˜… [21:49:15] [[mw:Extension:TemplateStyles]]? [21:49:15] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TemplateStyles [21:49:16] TemplateStyles sounds like what you're describing [21:49:16] [21:49:50] but "single large module" doesn't ring a bell [21:49:59] you sure you wasn't using Common.css? [21:54:22] done [22:01:12] hi guys, just wondering how quickly domain name requests are answered to atm? [22:01:32] you mean SSL? [22:01:41] yeah, basically getting a custom domain set up [22:02:18] ive got the domain and SSL purchased and all and i see theres a form to fill in once ive set up the dns [22:03:03] or well, im using namecheap, normally the SSL just gets set up so im not sure which option to say [22:05:03] you using the wiki page or phab form [22:05:27] okay, do i just need a cname record for mw-lb.miraheze.org ? do i need anything else dns wise? [22:06:41] Common.css was the one I was thinking about! But I'll toss in TemplateStyles too for good measure, thanks! ๐Ÿ˜„ [22:09:32] [1/2] Besides the TemplateStyles extension, you can check the `templatename/styles.css` subpage to make sure its content type is sanitized css. [22:09:33] [2/2] Also, you can edit a page with the template, scroll down and click the "Templates used on this page" arrow. Any redlinks in the list are templates or modules you need to create or import. [22:09:38] TS is neat as portions of CSS load only if template is used on the page, thus pretty much removing some load from Common.css [22:10:54] okay put in the domain/ssl request, hope i did it right LOL [22:11:01] oh [22:11:02] >[b92facf3ef1adb11280b4eec] 2024-03-07 22:10:45: Fatal exception of type "ArgumentCountError" [22:11:59] @pixldev tried to use the wiki page and it error'd out, should i just put it on phabricator? [22:12:24] Heh MacFan4000 the Meta:Patrollers/Chart page is outdated as heck [22:12:42] not totally but a lot of it's been unlogged [22:12:47] and then see the SRE Chart.... [22:13:26] oh yea @bluemoon0332 has the fix for RSSL not been pushed to prod yet? [22:19:10] BrandonWM: I just updated it to at least reflect the current admins and patrollers [22:22:11] Nope [22:22:43] womp womp [22:22:54] RSSL is overrated anyways [22:22:58] Phorge FTW! [22:23:04] how should i request for the domain name then? [22:24:29] Until we upgrade it, feel free to use this other form: https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org//maniphest/task/edit/form/14/ [22:24:42] it is the one we used to use back when RSSL didn't exist [22:25:30] If you need a tutorial on Phorge, we have one at [[Phorge]] [22:25:30] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Phorge [22:25:31] [22:25:43] [1/2] okay, thank you! i just want to confirm that this is the only dns setup i need to do? [22:25:44] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215425176125308938/image.png?ex=65fcb3e7&is=65ea3ee7&hm=963d3dd1e00e3f06672f55a7cd8ca9fcc52da0a31c4a5a3818f5e9a6017218b2& [22:26:01] yeah, if you want the wiki at the www subdomain [22:26:13] how do i make it at https://phighting.wiki ? [22:26:15] just @ ? [22:26:25] are you using Cloudflare? [22:26:28] namecheap [22:27:03] Hmmm, if you have nothing else on that domain, you could point the nameservers at us [22:27:13] ohh okay, yeah i can do that, the domain will only be used for this [22:27:31] [1/2] remove cname and add both nameservers here i assume? [22:27:31] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215425625691783199/image.png?ex=65fcb452&is=65ea3f52&hm=1f4818bdaf46dec00a1b1398e30ce5544eb2c306559e02562d19bbc68ad4d8a0& [22:27:37] yeah [22:28:09] point the domain at both ns1.miraheze.org and ns2.miraheze.org [22:28:34] seems it wants the IP or something [22:29:26] wait nevermind found it [22:29:42] [1/2] think that should be it? [22:29:42] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1215426176831455293/image.png?ex=65fcb4d6&is=65ea3fd6&hm=b33cfc1acae9030868f7bf53a12aafcafdbfbd3c24232f8282a8d9ecc50fda9f& [22:29:53] perfect [22:30:03] okay awesome, ill submit the request, thanks for the help! [22:31:01] if anyone needs [22:35:41] RequestSSL is now updated [22:38:20] once again just want to reiterate how great miraheze has been to our wiki, something about just having a true wiki like this has inspired tons of new contributors to help out and its just been really awesome [22:38:25] theres also far less vandals...for now. LOL [22:55:31] hey, can a meta admin move [[User:Blad/Personal Guide from Moving from Fandom/old/sandbox]] over [[User:Blad/Personal Guide from Moving from Fandom]]? i messed up the title [22:55:31] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Blad/Personal_Guide_from_Moving_from_Fandom/old/sandbox https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Blad/Personal_Guide_from_Moving_from_Fandom [22:55:32] [1/2] [22:55:33] [2/2] [22:58:04] thank you macfan4k [22:58:08] @zeusdeegoose done [22:58:12] No problem
