''{{{1}}}''/div` [07:09:26] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7b1 [07:09:27] [3/4] then when you make Template:Main list, type [07:09:27] [4/4] `{{hatnote|For a more comprehensive list see {{{1}}}{{#if: {{{2|}}}| and {{{2|}}}}}.` [07:09:27] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:hatnote [07:10:58] you can add more visual stuff in `

in attempt to discuss overhaul of categories/tags I proposed to change it to "fan encyclopedia" [13:42:25] that would be cool [13:42:43] and a new purpose being book wiki, or something similar [13:47:34] Literature/Writing [13:48:05] Oki tyy [13:54:26] [1/3] Greetings, I have a very technical question; I'm working on a wiki for a TTRPG I'm participating in developing. It's very math heavy and I wrote a program that we use to automate some of that math by making virtual tabletop macros, and this program uses a custom domain specific programming language that it uses to generate macros. I'm working on documenting the program on the wiki [13:54:26] [2/3] as a useful tool for players and I think having the ability to add syntax highlighting to code examples for that custom language would aid in readability. [13:54:26] [3/3] Is there any way I could accomplish that? The program is a web application so I already have some javascript code that can take a snippet of code in that language and output a highlighted version, if that's useful to have. [13:58:59] If this isn't the right place to ask, I would be happy to take my inquirty to the correct place if you can point it out to me. [13:59:31] ` /syntaxhighlight` [14:00:57] But it won't work as it's a language he made right ? [14:01:32] Ah... Hadn't read it thoroughly I see [14:04:52] But if you have js that can handle the highlighting, you can just use it as standard web js [14:05:07] In the Mediawiki:Common.js [14:05:09] I think [14:11:30] MediaWiki:Common.js [14:12:38] as a very very crude solution, you can make a div w/ monotype font and apply colors via template :ThinkerMH: [14:15:46] You could also consider doing some sort of lua module that process the coloration [14:16:33] Lua is handled via pages w/ Module: prefix and invok function [14:17:18] Being able to reuse my existing javascript would probably be idea given having to rewrite the parser would be nontrivial and I'd have to mirror any future changes in both vresions. The current version of the script I have basically does already just make a monospace div and apply colors via span elements and css classes. [14:19:02] Wikitext allows div and span tags, right? I'll probably try this solution then. [14:20:14] If it does apply it with classes just reuse the classes within a template [14:29:05] [1/4] yeah, but a template will make easier, for example Template:Clr has this code: [14:29:05] [2/4] `{{{2}}}/span` [14:29:05] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:%7b1 [14:29:06] [3/4] so on normal page you type: [14:29:06] [4/4] `{{clr|red|}}` [14:29:06] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:clr [14:35:53] same can be done w/ classes, if you intend to use JS [14:41:21] Ah, interesting. Thanks for the info. I'll look into that. [14:42:47] also custom CSS is implemented on MediaWiki:Common.css [15:23:03] I found a way to fix my Infobox problem. I've tweaked the Skin settings under extensions and disabled "Europa Infobox" for the Cosmic skin. Making the null edit to pages now restores the old broken ones! [15:28:03] hmm [15:28:31] before that null edits dis nothing? [15:28:39] Yes [15:28:45] interesting [15:29:03] Cosmic skin is kinda wack. There [15:29:33] I never used that setting really [15:29:41] 's no way to adjust some colors so if your link color is bright neon for a dark themed sight it disappears onto white [15:29:54] I don't think it's enabled by default so I haven't encountered that other wikis [15:30:59] Maybe enabling portable infoboxes helped too in some regard but I didn't see any change until after I unchecked Europa [15:31:47] using dark mode? [15:32:29] [1/2] but considering that other skins don't offer color settings at all, Cosmos is pretty progressive [15:32:30] [2/2] needs only small amount of CSS tweaking, while other skins, well [15:33:05] My page is set up with custom BGs and colors for a dark mode but is still the default light mode for any client. As far as I remember there's no forcing dark mode other than these theme options [15:33:41] dark mode extension is not good tbh [15:33:45] I didn't consider this but other skins can be quite drab yea [15:34:05] but funny thing, if you make your wiki dark as is, dark mode will make it light [15:34:37] problem is that the way extension handle color switch is poor [15:34:41] We call that "Lazy dark mode" [15:35:02] and thus requires more CSS tweaks [15:35:59] Everyone go to #offtopic and raise your hand if you don't know how to do CSS [15:36:44] I learned it by myself, just w/ free online tutorials, by looking at other wikis and poking element inspector [15:37:16] it's not as hard as people imagine [15:37:30] Really isn't [15:49:14] everyone in off topic who raises their hands, raise w3schools [15:53:40] or , in my case [16:00:07] whatever works [16:49:24] Like, about 80% of the wiki creators doesn't even know how to program something with css, that's why the support channel is full of css request which no one can help, and therefore, are empty. [16:49:31] 😅 [16:49:38] good afternoon, btw. [16:49:47] I learned CSS by trial and error as a IA [16:50:34] Main thing I learned: don't test on production [16:51:19] I read a book at the library about coding then went home, tried it, and looked up whatever I wanted to learn after that [16:53:56] amen [16:54:20] Oh way more than that [16:54:48] [1/2] "Why is Vector broken?" [16:54:48] [2/2] "Nova did something" [16:55:45] idk if broken is accurate, however trying to theme both legacy and 2022 of vector at the same time is a pain [16:56:01] And also, there are many functions that Wikipedia has, but we're waiting in Miraheze to be also added, but nothing happens. [16:56:16] waiting? [16:56:26] wdym [16:56:38] Someone on Mira said: CSS is like violence, if it does not work, use more. [16:57:02] miraheze is running 1.41 with 1.42 in beta testing [I think]. anything additional is likely an addon such as a skin, extension, or gadget. you'll just have to locate it. [16:57:13] For example, I'm still waiting for the 'Phonos' function to be installed in here, bc I need my text template to play an audio on my pages 😅 [16:57:18] yes, if you want to force something and its not cooperating just use `!important` [16:57:38] go to managewiki, enable timedmediaplayer [16:57:56] that's an extension, I believe there's a task for it already [16:58:03] [1/18] Ah yes, [16:58:03] [2/18] ```css [16:58:03] [3/18] body, html { [16:58:03] [4/18] margin: 0; [16:58:04] [5/18] padding: 0; [16:58:04] [6/18] width: 100%; [16:58:04] [7/18] height: 100%; [16:58:05] [8/18] overflow: hidden; [16:58:05] [9/18] display: flex; [16:58:05] [10/18] justify-content: center; [16:58:06] [11/18] align-items: center; [16:58:06] [12/18] } [16:58:07] [13/18] * { [16:58:07] [14/18] object-fit: fill !important; [16:58:08] [15/18] width: 100% !important; [16:58:08] [16/18] height: 100% !important; [16:58:09] [17/18] } [16:58:09] [18/18] ``` [16:58:10] correct me if I'm wrong [16:58:34] already enabled it long ago, but it's to show audio player on the pages, but what i'm asking is more complex. [16:58:46] [1/2] do you mean https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Phonos [16:58:46] [2/2] because that's 1.42 only and master is not backwards compatible to 1.41 [16:58:54] for the time being one can tweak player into a small button [16:59:12] Yeah it’s on Mirabeta [16:59:33] If anyone wants to test extensions on beta 1.42 [16:59:37] Tell me? [17:00:12] I have rights on beta to make accounts just DM me a username and an email to send the password [17:01:33] Speaking of email, there is a very odd bug with sending email on MH. [17:01:49] Hm? [17:02:27] I got my secondary inbox and my @f2esports.net inbox that I use. For some reason that inbox never gets anything from MH so I used my secondary [17:03:17] There is this file describing the process of the installation, but it seems that it's still on the way (last time checked many months ago)... https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T11704 [17:08:48] what's the difference between the media player vs an inline link to file? [17:10:10] [1/2] The player looks like this... [17:10:10] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1241800077782290523/image.png?ex=664b83f2&is=664a3272&hm=305d026c307574b3829c4613cff237885d56b2c922fd0f01b1ec7fe49bb56307& [17:10:49] [1/2] ...while the text looks like this: [17:10:49] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1241800241414672584/image.png?ex=664b8419&is=664a3299&hm=677019d90478ca7efe2091cfb1dd87527a894a14f445e63ac4a5a106af2945a2& [17:11:17] and that's what I want to recreate. [17:12:41] ok bothered by the size of player I see [17:15:39] [1/2] you can try this [17:15:39] [2/2] [17:15:53] it just doesn't work in example because I use different thing now [17:16:01] and there's JS script for it [17:16:10] which break the old thing [17:16:16] yep. most of the titles or pronunciations is on french or other languages, and I need that to help visitors to hear or understand how they pronounce. [17:16:16] but otherwise it should work [17:16:54] but again, Phonos is for 1.42, and right now Miraheze is on 1.41 [17:17:28] We may be able to load it onto beta if anyone wants to test [17:17:45] @rhinosf1 do you know how loading extensions onto only beta work? [17:17:55] I actually wanted this extension too but don't have time for that rn [17:18:35] [1/2] For example, I have made this template to include the pronuncation, IPA and sound, but bc the sound is not yet implemented, I have to hide the code for the sound. [17:18:35] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1241802194630737980/image.png?ex=664b85ea&is=664a346a&hm=0582dadf3fae9d251632e63b7951d4794040c16b49a17c2e594911ca3eab718e& [17:19:24] [1/2] please check the link I posted [17:19:25] [2/2] it turns big player into a small square "button", just need an icon file for it and styling [17:20:25] I will do. Thank you. [17:22:00] anyways, many of us should accord for one day to help installing that. There is no way we are missing important and vital functions in Miraheze. [17:22:29] I wouldn't say it's important tbh [17:22:35] I just offered you an alternative [17:22:46] it's new too, so we kinda lived w/o it [17:24:22] I will try it out. thank you. [17:34:35] CA already approved per ticket, however is unsure how to install [17:58:45] Look at how we did parser migration originally [17:58:53] Which task [17:59:23] Prepare for parsoid [17:59:57] https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config/commit/8bb4727100bca904e3a22e0d0734a6fb00a53a42 [18:00:48] There's a realm option [18:01:02] Might work same as wi->version [18:01:08] That’s actually simple [18:01:32] I mean setting it to = 1.41 would also work [18:01:40] Since it’s the version that’s the issue [18:18:59] can somebody help with https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1241738754834567189? [18:22:37] [1/2] also is there a way to change these icons? [18:22:37] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1241818309666668726/Snimka_zaslona_2024-05-19_202229.png?ex=664b94ec&is=664a436c&hm=f0b9104953e56832b5a43d7deac728340aa464b6ef9d416157afb1167f7fb12e& [18:23:01] They can be unset yeah [18:24:05] I want to change them to special pngs [18:24:58] while keeping Hosted by Miraheze and Powered by MediaWiki?

[18:25:28] local settings? [18:25:46] You can open a phorge ticket, add the configuration and PixDeVl project tags and I’ll see bout doing it later or in a few days [18:25:53] needs a phorge task then yeah [18:26:05] ok, how do I open it? [18:26:14] I think I did it once for the domain [18:26:26] settings task button on [[Phorge]] [18:26:26] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Phorge [18:26:27]
