[01:05:08] wait WhatLinksHere has a backlinks option this will be easy [01:31:09] hello, i'm new to miraheze but not to html in general and was wondering if there was any resources that can help me learn and understand how setting up css style sheets in miraheze goes cause i've tried looking up some online and i've been met with a brick wall [01:42:09] Any CSS code you put on the [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] page on your wiki will apply to all pages on your wiki [01:42:10] [01:42:41] You can also do MediaWiki:Citizen.css for the citizen skin only, Timeless.css for the timeless skin etc [01:42:44] thats the main way [01:43:05] is there any way to make a custom css sheet thats not on Common and add it to a page of your choice? [01:43:16] For a specific article! [01:43:25] yeah [01:43:49] getting a bit outside of my zone but i think [[mw:Extension:TemplateStyles]] may be your best bet [01:43:56] [01:49:06] how exactly would i make a template then cause trying to append smth.css doesn't seem to let me create a css file [02:13:00] You can change the page's content model to sanitized CSS at Special:ChangeContentModel [02:23:33] can you explain this to an idiot like me, what does that mean [02:25:02] to special.. what? [02:30:15] [1/2] iirc if you make a .css subpage in the template namespace (a subpage of a page starting with `Template:`), it automatically sets the page's type to be sanitized CSS, which is necessary for TemplateStyles to work. If you want to use some other page to store CSS, you'll need to change its type from one for wikitext to one for CSS, and you can do that at t [02:30:16] [2/2] he special page named Special:ChangeContentModel [02:31:12] ohhhh [02:31:22] i assumed it was Templates/name.css [02:31:53] Yeah that would be a page named Templates in the main namespace [02:32:52] and then to load the template all i would do is ? [02:34:49] Not quite. For example, if the css is in the page `Template:Sandbox/name.css`, it should be `` [02:35:31] so the templatestyle applies to everything on the page then correct? [02:36:56] In general, yes [02:38:55] Sometimes you need to be aware that it puts everything under `.mw-parser-output` though [02:42:05] [1/3] so to make sure i got everything correct [02:42:05] [2/3] By making a template style using .../Templates:name.css [02:42:06] [3/3] inside a page i use and i wrap everything inside the templatestyles brackets and that should do what i need it to do. Am i missing or getting smth wrong [02:43:05] [1/2] The styles would be located in a page like this: `Template:Sandbox/name.css` [02:43:06] [2/2] Nothing should come before `Template:` [02:43:26] the.../ was just a placeholder for the page [02:47:20] [1/5] Ah ok. In that case you'd do this: [02:47:20] [2/5] Make the page `.../name.css` [02:47:21] [3/5] Change its content model to sanitized CSS by going to the special page Special:ChangeContentModel and using the menu there [02:47:21] [4/5] Put your styles in the page [02:47:21] [5/5] Use `` on the page. It doesn't wrap anything. [02:49:15] oh so in src you put the link to the page or just like where its at in the Templates like if its in Templates:Test/name.css you would put in .../Test/name.css [02:49:49] So what namespace is this css page going in? [02:50:12] none as of rn. its just Templates:Test.css [02:51:23] Is that the entire name of the css page you have now? [02:51:49] on the page in the title it has MediaWiki:Templates:Test.css [02:56:32] Looks like you made the page in the MediaWiki namespace [02:56:59] is that a bad thing? [03:00:01] I think that's fine, though I've only used pages in main and template namespaces for templatestyles before [03:00:47] First you should move the page from `MediaWiki:Templates:Test.css` to `MediaWiki:Test.css` since `Templates:` here serves no purpose [03:02:04] Then try doing what I explained here, except the usage would instead be `` [03:06:37] i got an issues saying that it must be a content model of Sanitized Css but i already did change it through the Special stuff [03:07:07] ok maybe that doesn't work [03:09:31] You could put the css in a subpage of the page it's meant for [03:10:12] Probably should've asked earlier but could you send a link to your wiki? [03:10:53] is it alright if i dm it to you [03:11:00] sure [05:11:05] Is anyone else having a problem with Chrome not loading various icons on Miraheze wikis? (icons like external link, icon next to username in Vector legacy, etc) [05:22:34] [1/3] has anyone ever attempted to modify the previews extension with css before? i'm trying to figure out why there's a missing space above the preview box that stops my border from showing up but nothing seems to stick out when i inspect element it [05:22:35] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1417017732377083974/image.png?ex=68c8f41a&is=68c7a29a&hm=e4e7d4cb0a18aa5c37b06073f90fff6dbb62878225e44c16d2e9620d615d94ea& [05:22:35] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1417017732762828810/image.png?ex=68c8f41a&is=68c7a29a&hm=abf78f5c4225d259c19224f9895061de0ed9b3a87a66182004bcc9d5ddd4fde8& [05:52:23] you removed the triangle arrow thingy? [06:36:57] ? [06:43:12] i can't see, no desktop, but doesn't pop-up has a little triangle by a hovered over link, by default? [09:10:19] how do i check when i switched my wiki's license? [09:15:29] Check the ManageWiki log [09:28:32] how do i add a @font-face to my wiki's css again [09:48:16] swag thanks! [09:49:07] [1/2] got it [09:49:08] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1417084812937924678/image.png?ex=68c93293&is=68c7e113&hm=04471bdf7c8a38b58683168df5bf81ef8d3f50b00c5a2216aae5977187088786& [12:52:43] <90gq29> is there any way to see changes instantly from css editing? [12:53:05] <90gq29> it pmo having to wait and refresh the page for 10 mins [12:53:49] <90gq29> inspect element is instant but its not really useful for seeing if i fucked up the css [12:54:36] ?debug=2 [12:57:18] Yeah just add ?debug=2 to the end of the URL and refresh browser cache [12:58:30] is there a way to add wiki discussions + the wiki chat function from fandom onto miraheze? [12:58:37] like extensions [13:08:44] Your best bet is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DPLforum [13:09:06] But it's not as cool as Fandom's Discussions unfortunately [13:14:59] [1/2] as in these forums? [13:14:59] [2/2] https://community.fandom.com/f [13:15:35] Yeah, DPLForum is not as polished as that [13:15:42] It's wikitext-based [13:16:00] [1/2] You can see it in action here: [13:16:00] [2/2] https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Forum:Index [13:20:01] Test your CSS on a user page first. User/common.css loads almost instantly. [13:20:29] <90gq29, replying to bitbyte10> goat [13:20:40] <90gq29, replying to ccxtwf> the debug=2 seemed to work [13:20:41] ?debug=2 sometimes fails to update if you've been editing MediaWiki:Common.css too many times [13:20:46] <90gq29> oh [13:20:47] <90gq29> hm [13:20:54] <90gq29> very well then [13:21:06] Hasn't failed me yet [13:21:47] The browser's inspector tools are usually a lot better when it comes to debugging, though. [13:21:52] Lucky you, it has failed me 50% of the time I went to check my JS & CSS changes [13:22:07] Do you refresh browser cache? [13:23:30] Pretty sure it was still serving old JS & CSS even if I refresh my cache [13:23:40] js sometimes, css it seems to work mostly [13:23:43] Peculiar [13:23:55] but yeah 100% use user pages [13:24:06] 😨 [13:24:15] I've been taking it as a message not to live code on prod [13:29:08] [1/2] No way to make the top text say "Skibidi Toilet Wiki" instead of just the domain [13:29:09] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1417140180636401744/image.png?ex=68c96624&is=68c814a4&hm=a5786c0a2529b2630d5a5a284c3ca4705c1b9e43634ce7968ce43a1f9ec2b6c7& [13:53:17] how do i make it so template pages by default are protected [14:11:50] [1/2] this is fandom's own thing, it's not even tied to mediawiki [14:11:50] [2/2] so either dplforum or scuffed solution w/ custom namespace and discussiontools [14:14:39] [1/2] it will take, i believe [14:14:39] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1417151632457601034/IMG_20250915_181406.jpg?ex=68c970ce&is=68c81f4e&hm=3e1e17bf834e0e52a8194472700c563da359898655d726714801ae5619d62005& [14:15:37] go to namespace settings and make Template namespace to be edited by an admin permission, something like that [15:02:49] No. That's decided by Google.
