[09:45:12] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/link https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/link [09:45:13] [8/11] |- [09:45:13] [9/11] ! [10/11] etc [09:45:14] [11/11] `|}` [09:46:24] you put this code on a`Template:` page, for example, navbox named "Items" will be on `Template:Items` page [09:46:54] Or Menu [09:47:03] when you finish template, you can you use it on normal pages by typing `{{Items}}` at the bottom [09:47:03] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Items [09:47:21] yeah, how you want/need, I just provided an example [09:48:13] u probably mean i must use `{{template:Menu}}` [09:48:13] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/template:Template:Menu [09:48:21] no [09:48:38] because the PI was written like that [09:48:50] in wiki text either works [09:49:10] `Template:` can be omitted inside `{{...}}` [09:49:10] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:... [09:49:57] so u can use `{{template:Menu}}` or `{{Menu}}` [09:49:57] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/template:Template:Menu [09:50:04] yeah [09:50:08] both works [09:50:22] i have staff [09:50:37] next will be Ingame Brands [09:50:51] Next is tutorials [09:51:29] second method is a bit complicated [09:53:11] what I suggest is very very basic [10:06:09] ok [10:09:17] need it? [10:09:32] wdym [10:10:13] another way of making navbox, involves copying things from Fandom [10:10:56] eh gotta go [10:51:29] I wish have staff on my wiki 😔 [11:24:50] Hi, I'm sorry, but I didn't see your answer last time I asked you a question because I was away. [11:24:51] I'm "Sama93", owner of "eduwiki". I lost ownership of my wiki in the past and found it again, but I've since lost editing rights for special documents like Sidbar. Question how to solve this. [11:28:10] EDUWIKI: what message do you get when trying to edit those pages? [11:29:12] oh, i see what happened: both the sysop/administrator and bureaucrat groups do not have the editinterface right [11:29:21] I'm Korean User. So I translated the message [11:29:22] You do not have permission to edit documents. Check the following reasons: [11:29:22] This document is used in the Wiki's software interface and is protected to prevent cheating. To add or change translations for all Wiki, please join the Media Wiki Localization Project, translatewiki.net . [11:30:01] go to https://eduwiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:ManageWiki/permissions, select either "Administrators" or "Bureaucrats" (whichever you want), go to "Unassigned permissions", tick "editinterface", and click save [11:38:43] thanks you. I solved the problem! [11:41:41] you're welcome ^_^ [13:22:17] Indents after section headings yay or nay? [13:22:52] wdym? [13:23:19] You mean for paragraphs? [13:23:27] Yep [13:33:16] My 8th grade English teacher may say yes but this isn’t a 5 paragraph essay on Romeo and Juliet so [13:40:12] I guess that is not your prefered style lol. [13:42:41] Mediawiki doesn't seem to like the idea either. [13:43:48] It is do-able in a number of ways but that would ususally involve templates as a workaround. [13:49:03] Seems like Under Attack mode block lots of stuffs on MH [14:55:20] it's not really a thing on wikis as far as I've seen [14:55:27] knock yourself out if it's a desired style though :p [15:13:50] Under attack mode shouldn't be on? [15:15:48] It also doesn't block anything, it shows a captcha [15:26:06] Not sure but it seems blocking few stuffs [15:26:34] It's not even turned on at the moment [15:26:52] If you're getting a cloudflare challenge / block page then please dm your ip [15:28:10] dm'ed [17:29:52] Oh bruh, seems like CF messed up lots of things [17:30:04] Even simple page search doesn't work [17:30:25] An error has occurred while searching: We could not complete your search due to a temporary problem. Please try again later. [17:42:24] if i were to have my wikis path changed from /wiki/ to / would there be any consequeces this late on? mainly with SEO etc [17:55:57] Unless it screw up the sitemap, I don't think there are any problems. [17:56:16] And Google Search Console is absolute worst thing to do with SEO. [17:56:44] ^Broke too often, way too slow and they don't care about small sites. [18:05:35] Please don't blame CF on everything [18:05:53] I suggest you turn a VPN on tbh [18:15:19] If you can provide the ray id header though for a 403'd request, I'll raise blocked requests with cloudflare [18:20:35] google SEO has been fine for us, its not perfect but we have good results on google currently [18:20:55] >50% CTR and 1.4 average pos compared to our ex fandom wiki [18:21:18] so SEO matters to me and i just want to be sure i wouldnt be breaking it [18:23:24] 1.4 ??? [18:23:30] Damn [18:23:33] 50%??????? [18:23:34] yup [18:23:43] idk what the hell i did but were doing well [18:23:55] I'm stuck around 7th avg position 😭 [18:24:09] 😭 out here fighting for my life with 1% [18:24:20] okay i need to see mine [18:24:27] its gone down a bit but [18:24:52] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1255589617084665886/Screenshot_20240626_192440_Chrome.png?ex=667dae74&is=667c5cf4&hm=88995bdaa8fbc5758ff6bb77c346aa9428af94f3480f6589414a26f3877e4049& [18:24:59] i dont even have manual SEO on most pages [18:25:02] My ctr is 7.6% 😎 I'm doing so well [18:25:32] mb i got the 50%/1.4 figure from our "phighting wiki" query but still thats really good [18:25:33] daaaaamn [18:25:40] does manual seo actually help [18:25:44] i think it does [18:25:51] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1255589860597698752/Screenshot_20240626_192530_Chrome.png?ex=667daeae&is=667c5d2e&hm=745f5f4ee8df70f7e0316c615ce62ab89653533b6afc8dd4179ba3511dfac3b9& [18:25:54] i cant be arsed when it wont even index half the important pages [18:26:02] the only character i gave manual SEO to completely trumped all otger characters in impressions and CTT [18:26:07] CTR* [18:26:14] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1255589958987812976/16AzJ11.png?ex=667daec5&is=667c5d45&hm=4db82c8e277efc4337b374f3d4d968bf185e8917fe9a58393b74a2dff8727b1b& [18:26:20] like she eclipsed the single mosy popular character within a month [18:26:37] which one [18:26:52] What namespaces should be indexed? 🤔 [18:26:55] Medkit is the most popular other than Scythe, who beats him thanks to SEO [18:27:01] she has manual tags [18:27:09] bc she was new and i felt like boosting her in results [18:31:38] black magic of boost [18:32:15] the trick is i added cowgirl and cowboy to her tags /lh [18:32:20] (shes a cowgirl character) [18:34:36] [1/2] me watching 1.4% go up to 2.8%: wow this is doing numbers [18:34:36] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1255592064067047486/image.png?ex=667db0bb&is=667c5f3b&hm=ce5b41961b733679858022c8deac88477967816f9ca6ddc05f7dbdd03eb5b3a0& [18:45:38] There's a way to fix this? [18:45:41] Lua error in Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration at line 2058: attempt to index a boolean value. [18:47:27] i think it might be time to give up on the wikipedia citation template and just use something simpler like https://dev.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Simple_cite or just use tags normally without a template [18:50:14] How to get more people to edit your wiki [18:52:10] promote the wiki in places where it might gather interest [18:52:38] if it's fan wiki - fandom tags in social media, dedicated reddit, discord servers, etc [18:55:23] [1/2] Bruh [18:55:23] [2/2] You don't need a template for citations [18:55:44] is all ya needing [18:56:06] Are there any servers for promoting wikis [18:56:22] don't think so [18:56:54] What is ur wiki? [18:57:07] that's what I'm saying man, for almost any Wikipedia Lua template there's a simpler old fashioned alternative [18:57:14] less headache [18:57:23] [1/2] https://nvd123.miraheze.org [18:57:23] [2/2] just got it 2 days ago [18:57:36] But what is it [18:58:00] personal/niche wikis are hardest to find editors for [18:58:09] volunteer resources are always scarse [18:58:10] its personal but its not [18:58:16] read main page [18:58:43] so? [18:58:59] That is the most random collection of things to document [18:59:27] all I can say is good luck? [18:59:46] yea thats the point haha [19:00:14] if you start the wiki in such field expect to do at least 70% of the work by yourself [19:00:45] Become a streamer to get those jokes and fictional stuffs [19:01:36] Yeah I do, but any servers or places to put it to get the other 30% [19:02:30] I think for this specifically, you have to cultivate a community for yourself [19:03:08] dude, I dunno, check disboard maybe [19:03:23] I literally hang in 13 servers lol [19:03:28] Also how to syle it make it not bland [19:03:59] CSS [19:04:17] no like where do I click to get there [19:04:23] I have never been wiki admin [19:04:32] and I am doing it myself so i have things I need to learn [19:04:35] MediaWiki.css [19:04:44] moths no lol [19:04:53] Fuvk [19:04:56] lmao [19:05:34] Mediawiki:common.css [19:05:35] easy way - use Cosmos skin as default, it will let you to set up colors and bg image in just settings [19:06:12] [1/2] Yk what [19:06:13] [2/2] Cosmos would be fitting for that [19:06:25] [1/3] if you want to use different skin then it's all CSS [19:06:25] [2/3] - MediaWiki:Common.css is general/main place for the code [19:06:26] [3/3] - there are also skin specific CSS pages, like for Vector it's gonna be MediaWiki:Vector.css [19:07:10] [1/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Help_center [19:07:10] [2/2] this page has helpful stuff [19:07:28] (why is this page so tucked away i could only find it bc i knew it existed and went searching) [19:07:50] thought you linked mediawiki.org tbh [19:08:15] [1/3] I am so tired today [19:08:15] [2/3] I did a lot of editings today on Kinder World [19:08:15] [3/3] And I am melting [19:08:47] take a break [19:08:51] slay [19:08:52] do not melt [19:08:53] I have [19:09:26] [1/2] Idk about the melting part [19:09:26] [2/2] I unfortunately don't have control over the sun yet [19:09:56] [1/2] ive been fucking around making a cosmos theme designer the past couple days to learn js [19:09:56] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1255600956859744296/image.png?ex=667db904&is=667c6784&hm=6f4358d855ef24d506a4879158ee5e7db3610ee14906e88993586bfddbcaa1da& [19:10:09] oh [19:10:18] Aw nice [19:11:18] i know cosmos has a theme designer kinda but its in like a sorta existing state where i cant figure out how to access it and i cant find any mention of it [19:12:56] oh hi OA [19:12:58] You can't access it on Miraheze because it conflicts with ManageWiki.
