[00:15:07] I hate Fandom so much [00:17:49] mood [00:40:35] how do i fix a person infobox so that it's in a box [01:19:38] [1/2] Sorry for asking so many questions today. I'm switching to portable infoboxes and now my pop-up extensions broke. Are they non-compatable? [01:19:38] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360786476190662706/image.png?ex=67fc62aa&is=67fb112a&hm=718a80e85fdbd6cf428faec9bad0ede4a47f82601b2777a58136e14ed650a6ef& [01:28:39] [1/2] To confirm the extensions are not broken in general, they work with articles without infoboxes. [01:28:40] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360788747204952294/image.png?ex=67fc64c7&is=67fb1347&hm=fd8cfed8d7aaf4d2bf0c8afcd5cd41cc04b27511028a0278f14d54be6b137dbb& [01:45:59] I posted this on the reddit too, but basically images on templates stopped working after i added the Mass Edit Regex extension. Might only be with PNGs too. How fix [01:49:55] Is there a way i can just revert the whole wiki to a state before i got the extension? because now theres a slight lag to the wiki as well [01:50:05] i mean it could be my imagination [02:03:46] [1/2] My New Wiki [02:03:46] [2/2] https://rachelandtina.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges?hidebots=1&limit=50&days=7&enhanced=1&urlversion=2 [02:31:58] can someone help me with this? I feel like I ruined my wiki [02:35:13] you could just disable the extension if you haven’t already. [02:35:58] this [02:37:38] I already disabled the extension, the images still aren’t back [02:37:47] I also deleted every single page I accidentally imported [02:38:21] Basically what I did was import the page detailing the extension from the media wiki site instead of using the extension manager [02:39:24] [1/2] hi guys! i need a bit of help lol [02:39:24] [2/2] so i was trying to edit the colour themes of the wiki and it ended up horribly. I tried to revert it but it hasnt changed yet. But, the theme only shows up when im logged into my account? does anyone have an explanation, fix or anything that may help? [02:39:37] You might be able to file a request on [[Steward requests]] to restore your wiki to a previous state [02:39:38] [02:40:17] oh wait nevermind its fixed now yess [02:45:24] I filed a request. hoping that will help [02:50:55] It takes a little bit for the cache to update. It's quicker if you put it on your user css page (for example User:NAME\common.css) [02:52:01] ah alright thx for info [04:12:46] [1/3] So I'm working on getting these boxes for the main page subjects, but they're all off to the left side, anyone able to help fix this?

[04:22:34] both, im not fully sure what to do [04:25:54] I tried reading the guides but it didnt make any sense [04:26:26] [1/5] to upload a file [04:26:26] [2/5] - go to Special:Upload on your wiki [04:26:27] [3/5] - choose your file [04:26:27] [4/5] - give a name [04:26:27] [5/5] - click Upload [04:26:57] there's a guide on adding images iirc {{mw:help:images}} [04:26:59] [04:27:19] -# "Rendering a single image" section [04:31:12] I put it in but now its just showing up as a link [04:34:11] can you send a screenshot [04:36:50] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360836101492707600/Screenshot_2025-04-12_213543.png?ex=67fc90e1&is=67fb3f61&hm=2389b86569ff5bf44902baaf2c2252b182394271aa4312b3040b5eb0b434782f& [04:41:09] and what happens when you preview it?

[04:47:21] can you send the link to your file?

[04:52:39] The problem is the all-capitals extension [04:52:46] Switch it over to .webp instead of .WEBP [04:53:12] (Pretty much every file and page name is case sensitive) [04:54:23] thank you [04:54:31] you are a life saver [04:54:44] Glad to help, now back to bed rest for me. [05:04:54] [1/2] Hey, so I was editing CSS pages to try and fix a centering issue, and now text and infoboxes run off the side of the page, how do I fix this?? [05:04:54] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360843165061349446/image.png?ex=67fc9775&is=67fb45f5&hm=d9e2b65183716958cc87f3b3f314686ac9840e5a969c56ce1c3a0ba2b8c26b49& [07:49:31] import request said it completed again, but still doesn't appear to have imported anything. i did check a couple that got posted to #global-wiki-feed, but they just point to non-existent pages with no page history. Special:AllPages still shows the same as before, not sure if i should open a phorge task for it or not [07:52:58] How did you people get the wiki reviewer role? Is it like invite only non public role? [08:03:28] It’s not a discord role itself, it’s to designate members of the on wiki [[Meta:Wiki Reviewers]] [08:03:28] [08:03:32] Son of a [08:03:36] [[WR]] [08:03:37] [08:22:16] I think maybe the question was how do you become a WR? [08:22:37] Well that’s included in that page under appointment [08:22:50] TLDR: election or appointment by stewards [08:22:56] I was just going to write that 😄 [08:23:36] :wikipetan: [08:23:38] But yeah to become a WR the most important is to demonstrate that you understand the Content Policy, have good judgment (usually answering some practice requests) and are able to work in a team [08:34:37] I see, thanks for the explanation! [08:36:18] Ah, it was wiki creators before. I did see that page, but got confused as the name changed recently [08:37:27] Eh not that recent [08:37:49] recent enough since I last opened meta.miraheze [08:48:16] Can anyone (who is allowed to edit it) fix the malformed header over at [[IRC/Group#Cloaks]]? `== Obtaining a Cloak ==` is in the same line as the content below, not rendering it as a header. [08:48:17] [08:55:22] Oop [08:55:48] Fixed [08:56:09] Thanks! [10:09:17] I've undid everything I can possibly think of, and the images are still not loading. The steward wasn't able to help. Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening? I'm willing to make the wiki temporarily public if that would help. [10:13:28] which templates? [10:13:47] Every template. [10:14:00] man [10:14:44] link the wiki at least, maybe it's cache issue [10:14:59] https://antverse.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [10:15:34] it's private? [10:15:43] idk then [10:15:55] only members can see files [10:16:11] I've just made the wiki public, so people can help [10:16:18] https://antverse.miraheze.org/wiki/Meracay_Fairburn Heres a page thats supposed to have an image [10:17:41] I see images [10:17:54] refresh the page, I purged the cache [10:17:55] Do you see them on the infobox or on the bottom of the page? [10:18:07] Still nothing [10:18:18] at the bottom, infobox issues is know that's why I've asked which templates [10:19:06] Template:Character, Template:Nation are the ones i know [10:19:21] they are infoboxes and you are using gallery inside them [10:19:25] yeah [10:20:29] [1/2] infobox is a type of template, usually perceived as separate thing so "all templates" really meant nothing to me, I needed more specifics [10:20:29] [2/2] the issue is known but idk if someone has made report of it [10:20:51] All infoboxes, basically [10:21:06] Sorry for being so confused about this whole thing, I'm very new to this [10:22:01] it's ok [10:22:16] Eclair you heard about portable infobox issue? [10:22:32] is there a global issue with portable infobox? [10:22:50] yeah, you are not first reporting gallery problem [10:24:17] [1/2] yup, on pizza tower wiki too [10:24:18] [2/2] [10:24:35] man i really don't like going tru phorge feed [10:24:38] Everything's fine for me on that wiki [10:25:04] you several rats in infobox? [10:25:19] Wait it just changed [10:25:30] so it sounds like a cache issue [10:26:24] [1/2] On one tab it looks like this [10:26:24] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360924073701408868/image.png?ex=67fce2cf&is=67fb914f&hm=c2bcad08aa3de612622ab1b6d3f5c4bf5a702ae6285cd611905a4279d96889ab& [10:26:41] [1/2] Different tab it looks like this [10:26:41] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360924143889027162/image.png?ex=67fce2e0&is=67fb9160&hm=99b26e3af4e2e6471f5c63d466a633efc57c4b08ec9a3ec0d6fb0a15d83b8472& [10:31:10] Currently the infobox extension somehow broke [10:31:29] Not just you, everyone who use the extension have the same issue [10:31:37] Okay thanks [10:34:41] oh?

[10:36:25] parser cache? [10:36:34] ah i see [10:36:36] _now_ it's broken [10:36:38] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360926651667447899/T7dwW04.png?ex=67fce536&is=67fb93b6&hm=66975bb329458454cc2f82d9b46ce5bf6018b92af14d4753bf89ac4a9ade45c3& [10:37:01] thanks for the reproduction ^^; [10:37:08] specifically galleries, oki [10:40:53] [1/2] that nails down... something [10:40:53] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1360927718723817666/2025-04-13_20-40.png?ex=67fce634&is=67fb94b4&hm=c233ad0e49579b5bc902e434a26fd87d0b2082a48c25de22429f97db0dbfc406& [10:46:35] bisect BAD 😡 bisect GOOD :blue_in_love: [10:46:45] it feels like that xD [10:47:01] caaaaaaaaaaa [10:47:06] you bothed your namespace migration [10:49:42] wait no [10:49:47] sorry, it was not a botch [10:53:34] oh wait, you _did_ botch it after all [10:54:47] bumping this, sorry if it's a common question. [10:55:06] https://github.com/Universal-Omega/PortableInfobox/pull/154 [10:55:21] link to wiki? [10:56:34] [1/2] https://equestripedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges?hidebots=1&limit=50&days=7&enhanced=1&urlversion=2 [10:56:34] [2/2] So far I only replaced one infobox with PI as to not bork the site. [11:00:58] is that ONE line the entire issue [11:01:04] yes. [11:01:15] (/lh, i'm not mad lol) [11:01:19] wow [11:01:21] incredible [11:01:27] computer touching can be hard at times [11:02:03] honestly, i'm glad that this was a relatively painless debugging session [11:02:33] given the broad change that the single commit did, i could've gone anywhere [11:13:00] Computers do exactly what they are told [11:13:07] yeeeep [11:13:09] There's no, my operator is an idiot, let me fix that [11:13:10] Yet [11:13:26] and if there is, we get llm jailbreaking [11:13:35] Maybe when we get a computer backed with a self aware AI that does the opposite of the operators instructions [11:13:41] And predicts everything wrong [11:13:58] ahaha [11:26:29] try setting $wgPortableInfoboxUseHeadings to false [11:44:02] Maybe there’s a setting somewhere. [11:49:12] Oh, it turns out the filter got disabled for some reason. [11:56:04] Thank you, that worked! [11:56:33] is the infobox thing fixed now? i still cant see them on my wiki [11:57:20] not yet [11:57:43] patch already exist but needs approval from higher up [11:58:08] alr [12:19:50] yaw [12:20:08] you can append ?action=info and scroll all the way down to see if the image you placed appears [12:21:50] Is it possible to extend processing time on my wiki? [12:22:47] I mean processing file after upload [12:23:08] Seems like 40MB file is ran out of processing time while 30MB is fine [12:34:50] awesome it works, exactly what i was looking for :D [13:05:16] Why is CirrusSearch restricted? Does it involve technical intervention? [13:08:06] <_arawynn> it uses quite a bit of server ressources and the servers aren't/weren't able to handle all the wikis using it [13:21:14] {{SR/RC}} [13:21:21] [13:37:35] It's a mix of resourcing and technical. We're working to solve the server resources and the technical has been fixed iirc. [13:38:02] Use [[SR/RC]] but in the medium term the target is to be able to restrict it. [13:38:03] [14:38:33] Did you guys figure out why infobox galleries broke? [14:43:34] yeah, pull request is made but still yet to be merged [14:43:52] Any ETA? [14:44:12] not really tbh [14:44:27] basically stuck on waiting for the maintainer of portableinfobox to merge it [14:44:43] RIP [14:45:13] anyone getting really slow loading? [14:45:27] even syntax highlight won't load [14:45:34] or css occasionally [14:48:09] or discussion tools [14:49:23] Nope, seems to work fine for me [14:56:34] Wait, doesn't Cosmic maintain that now? [14:56:45] yeah he does lol [14:56:55] in his personal capacity though, so i can't go in and merge it myself [14:56:59] Off to DMs to bug him about it I go then :kek: [14:57:11] i'll go UwU him for no reason whatsoever [14:57:14] (He is very much used to this) [14:57:22] UwU: sent [14:58:30] I've done my part :salute3d: [15:27:43] [1/2] last thing I'm having trouble with and can't seem to figure out.

[16:09:27] I've somehow managed to get it to work in the editing preview but not on the page itself [16:09:32] Which is just bizarre [16:18:52] [1/5] First worked just fine, second one I'm having trouble with.

[16:21:05] It should be [16:45:52] <2bhank> whats a good place to start with learning lua for wiki shit? [16:46:17] <2bhank> almost all my issues have been with lua, and its not something im super familiar with [16:48:10] !wiki verify [16:48:11] There are no verifications set up for this channel. [16:48:27] oh wait i already am verified [16:48:35] lmao [17:00:57] if you mean issues after importing Wikipedia templates - many things can be done w/o Lua in more "traditional wiki ways", Wikipedia just relies on it a lot due its size and complexity [17:02:49] <2bhank> i see. would i just have to like. make my own templates then? or is there a way to easily edit these templates [17:03:32] <2bhank> i guess i mean would editing these templates be more work than just starting from scratch [17:03:36] you can take simpler templates from other wikis but you still gotta learn how templates work, gonna be difficult to maintain a wiki w/o thag [17:04:03] <2bhank> yeahh i see, ill try look into that then [17:04:09] I mostly do them from scratch [17:04:28] there's [[dev:]] wiki which has some templates ready to import [17:04:29] [17:04:50] <2bhank> ive imported templates from other wikis but i pressumed importing from places like wikipedia would be like. a safe bet [17:04:52] [1/2] [[mw:Help:Templates]] [17:04:52] [2/2] [[Infoboxes]] [17:04:53] [1/2] [17:04:53] [2/2] [17:05:11] <2bhank> but i hadnt considered how wikipedias scale could play a part [17:05:12] Wikipedia import is sadly a very common beginner mistake [17:05:42] I believe our Import page has a war ning about it even [17:06:35] <2bhank> yeah im quiite new to this stuff lmao [17:07:11] [1/2] but testing around [17:07:11] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361024934997921882/Screenshot_2025-04-13_at_23-03-23_Creating_Test_-_Systems_General.png?ex=67fd40bf&is=67fbef3f&hm=e7046566d230dbbf368c8267a0d8004e836ae84a38633fe5904ea1e6c2b2ce3c& [17:07:27] <2bhank> i should probably properly learn some of this stuff instead of Bruteforcing my brain into it but ill figure it out [17:07:29] but is there a way to add texture like we can find in windows 9x?

[17:23:51] This is driving me mad [17:24:54] i added shadow and border colours but it still looks kinda off idk whats wrong with my styling [17:25:47] i think that can be done in editor iirc but templates can be edited only once during creation sadly [17:26:13] I've managed to get the arrows on there at least [17:26:19] But they don't function at all like they should [17:27:39] [1/2] this is what I meant [17:27:39] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361030083065676048/IMG_20250413_202720.jpg?ex=67fd458a&is=67fbf40a&hm=f13cebed81cdad52439e0355d4b9513e8826822a2a4824d98084ac3f6dfabf5d& [17:28:53] [1/2] i have similar [17:28:53] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361030393968590908/Screenshot_2025-04-13_at_23-28-18_Creating_Test_-_Systems_General.png?ex=67fd45d4&is=67fbf454&hm=1d0167291f7da1e1fdd979b5d5a90113b5604d8baa5b2dd2600650a39fc518b8& [17:29:13] so the button doesnt work or something?

I got the templates to work but now my issue is getting every page that has an infobox to update. I have been editing and saving every single page and its quite a pain for me since my wiki has 300 pages [17:49:49] fearing that i might be able to help [17:50:50] I've been trying to get chatgpt to generate an answer for the past two hours now lol [17:51:14] Would be great if I knew the first thing about JS [17:51:28] I can do CSS fairly well, but JS just confuses the hell out of me [17:52:42] I normally get cosmic to deal with this sort of stuff, but he has like a million things better to do lol [17:54:31] i would suggest a code review [17:57:03] I just need someone who is vaguely competent at js to take a look tbh [18:29:32] I take it the problem with images displaying is still around because my info box combined with a gallery still isn't working even though it was for two years [18:31:13] [1/2] The infobox with gallery tag bug happen recently, and a patch already exist. [18:31:13] [2/2] Just wait for someone to approve the patch [18:32:26] https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T13512 [18:36:27] how long does it take css changes to appear typically [18:37:10] Instantly if you purge the cache [18:38:34] [1/3] First look for purge button on any pages [18:38:34] [2/3] And second press Ctrl + Shift + R while in web browser [18:38:35] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361047933067198624/megSxmB.png?ex=67fd562a&is=67fc04aa&hm=c4779c6e6a4d8fe7f92a7ce9c9da46e6c1258146413224c3fdd6e93f8eeb8751& [18:38:35] i see instructions to reset my browser's cache, how do i purge the wiki cache [18:39:13] oh neat [18:52:11] how do i get columns to work? Back on fandom I had ```` and etc functional [18:54:02] fandoomtags or something like that extension, but I suggest to replace them w/ flexboxes, because things get messed on mobile [19:11:45] DummyFandomMainpageTags I think they're called [19:11:58] but yes as Legroom says, better to avoid that because it will fuck up on mobile [19:12:26] (alternatively someone could be a gem and update the extension to use flexbox which would probably fix the issue for everyone), but heh [19:12:33] I am not that gem [19:16:14] how do i revert changes to a settings page [19:19:57] i accidentally fucked up the theme of a wiki [19:19:58] @cynosurethetank Watch your language. [19:20:09] apologies bot [19:20:54] [1/2] greetings all. please bare with me [19:20:54] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361058585446055956/image.png?ex=67fd6016&is=67fc0e96&hm=90de3fab6a8248ef70799d425526002d7eafbe6a2df5182d7899bb7751366c4b& [19:21:51] Was this a CSS change (where you modified script) or a settings change? [19:22:20] settings change [19:22:42] That's less easy to fix, but should show up under Recent Changes, specifically the managewiki log [19:23:09] That should at least let you know what you changed [19:23:41] ah [19:23:42] dang [19:44:01] in Common.css, where do I put ``background-color: #;``? Because right now, putting it in 'body' is doing nothing. [19:47:16] is it because that thing only works in fandomdesktop? [19:53:13] I messaged a friend and he now has three web developers around his kitchen table all trying to figure out what the actual hell it’s doing lmao [19:55:58] hay hay [19:57:06] hi hi [19:57:23] 😂 [19:57:43] how hard is it for a noob-9000 like me to start a wiki [19:58:58] Starting a wiki at the basest levrl isn’t hard. It takes work, and time, and a lot of the techy stuff can be really weird and difficult at the start. But remember every wiki project, including Wikipedia, started from the same place. Plus, this server exists for any question [19:59:10] no, it's much older than desktop and probably was never optimized for mobile [19:59:24] Anyone can make a wiki, but it isn’t a walk in the park all the time [19:59:35] fandom wikis are all forced on custom mobile skin after all [20:00:05] noob-8999 here. could someone point me to how I set up licensing options for my uploaded files? [20:03:53] [1/3] licences on file pages are usually temples w/ corresponding text [20:03:53] [2/3] on Special:Upload you can define licenses dropdown (which automatically slap that license template) via MediaWiki: Licenses [20:03:54] [3/3] `*Template name|Option text` [20:11:55] I'll look more into it tomorrow. My head is spinning lol [20:13:48] I'll look more into it tomorrow. My head is spinning lol >> my head is already spinning by being here lolz [20:14:34] Totally A-technical when it comes on coding and fixing [20:15:23] Working on a Magic strategy wiki. Presumably each page would have an image of the card the page is for. I presume this would fall under copyrighted fair use [20:17:58] MTG? [20:18:04] yup [20:18:08] Dooooope [20:18:10] Magic is fun [20:18:28] The folks over at https://mtg.wiki may have good advice on that [20:18:59] [1/2] this is what they're using [20:18:59] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361073202306224138/image.png?ex=67fd6db2&is=67fc1c32&hm=421fde93339c38b511fb509bb1a4aa604fc6fd628d278350ee08d528b2c76aff& [20:19:27] Pretty simple template [20:19:50] I forget the syntax to integrate those in the moment [20:20:45] think it was posted a bit earlier [20:26:05] My plan is to start a Wiki for the GameBoy Studio, an gamemaker engine who's being used to build GB/GBC games [20:26:19] since they havent a wiki for the games [20:26:32] oooh nice [20:26:54] Only thing: i have 0 exp [20:27:09] but yeah I'll come back to all this tomorrow. hard to plan 700+ pages when I can't even make 1 [20:27:42] SAMe haha [20:30:56] you'll learn, everyone start at 0 exp [20:31:11] gotta take steps [20:32:25] same thing goes to templates [20:34:24] please don't ping if you aren't replying to me directly [20:41:38] sorry [21:00:32] Hello [21:00:33] :) [21:05:57] no ETA to solve the non displaying files problem? [21:15:59] I believe @blankeclair found root cause, we're just waiting for upstream review and patch [22:02:49] [1/2] um guys [22:02:50] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361099334422368366/image.png?ex=67fd8609&is=67fc3489&hm=64672f5529f8bec77950e703d1411fa1431093eeb143c4637ceb5f1ee7b2aa74& [22:03:07] @nibblypup @paladox @tali64 can one of you help me [22:03:15] im confused on how to enable [22:03:16] previews [22:03:22] i sent an image of an example from wikipedia [22:03:39] im trying to figure out how to make it where it shows a preview of the citation or page when someone hovers over it [22:04:02] I think this is a gadget of some sort - I can't recall the name off the top of my head [22:04:21] [1/2] i enabled this [22:04:21] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361099720109326527/image.png?ex=67fd8665&is=67fc34e5&hm=9a0266e0d984b05623189a84dc76a721273de4f01754567305455732cd9fdaf4& [22:04:24] but it didnt change anything [22:05:05] [1/2] what do i do here [22:05:05] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361099902129541170/image.png?ex=67fd8690&is=67fc3510&hm=0562a5a4bae494be988ddbf99a4a70b67f9bb5e783a023596db5b73cc11cd6f2& [22:06:11] You have reference previews set as a beta setting; that means it's not enabled by default for most users [22:07:49] for anyone who had problems with #announcements it seems to be fixed [22:07:55] no clue why a response wasn't posted lmfao [22:12:22] [1/2] i changed it to this but it still doesnt work @tali64 [22:12:22] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361101736831614976/image.png?ex=67fd8846&is=67fc36c6&hm=a5ad115688fa812467ee9e5b339bf4e3a52c64911b627dd310b7cf8337caa54b& [22:17:59] don't you need to null edit/purge a page so preview shows for it? I think previews get cached or something. Maybe worth seeing if previews appear for links to a page that you edited [22:32:57] What reason would there be for dynamic categories not working? I followed the instructions to the dot. PageImages is enabled, I have a copy and pasted js code page at ``MediaWiki:Gadget-dynamiccategories.js``, I have the one line of js it told me to put in ``MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition:`` [22:33:02] What am I missing here [22:33:22] My lists in category pages haven't changed at all, not even any indication of trying to load images [22:40:48] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1361108891684831424/image.png?ex=67fd8eef&is=67fc3d6f&hm=e20588cd4066ea3d47b35df3aa0d6ce5186e8197ce6793125683a64f7d52e6e9& [22:46:29] I've added that license to my disclaimer page, so I'm unsure anything needs to be added to the images themselves
