[03:15:51] [1/2] and uh, may I ask about [[wtphorge:T35]]? [03:15:52] [2/2] My ManageWiki/settings still having tantrums with the settings that was removed out there- [03:15:53]

[14:43:39] I was thinking on an concept of allow backing-up the wiki's image using Google Drive or OneDrive [14:44:03] like, the SREs can create an app for that cloud storage [14:44:29] honestly, the only thing really holding us back is lack of devs [14:44:39] otherwise we'd be on a roll [14:46:53] or we can even make it automated, with the uses of the ExportDump extension for only the bureaucrat [14:47:22] I may be able to volunteer some time, but it’s not immediately clear if my current technical skill set overlaps with WT’s tech stack 🙂 (though I’m sure I can pick up what I need to quickly enough) [14:57:50] That'd be great if so! We're always looking for more folks with an interest in diving in, even if they're not masters of the MediaWiki stack quite yet. [14:58:54] 👍 I’m on a business trip this week but I’ll follow up later this week to figure out what would be a good approach for getting started. [15:22:27] Good morning [15:23:06] I created my own wiki using this artifical wiki [15:23:40] I want to change the theme for it [15:48:47] Theme? You mean skins then. [15:49:09] You can go to your `Special:ManageWiki/settings` for that [15:49:24] Ahhh ok [15:49:48] Oh, the `Design` section btw! [15:50:51] You can also enable additional skins to try out on Special:ManageWiki/extensions, under the skins section [15:51:30] And to get started, Citizen is a bit advanced, but an easy to use skin for me [15:52:07] found it [15:52:28] So do I go back to Special managewiki now??? [15:52:48] Cosmos reminds me of what Wikia uses [15:52:54] or FANDOM [15:54:05] i want to the add the skin sidewide, not just for me only [15:56:46] Then you can just enable the skin, then set it as the wiki's default skin [15:56:56] Special:ManageWiki - settings - styling - first option is the skin setting [15:58:36] @dr.red.archer What skin are you after? I use Citizen but others can be installed [15:58:53] Cosmos [15:59:00] a skin based on FANDOM [15:59:11] Yep, it's actually based on Fandom' Oasis skin, and is pretty faithful to the original [15:59:47] There’s lots of styling options for Cosmos in the same place [16:03:57] I already private messaged the Cosmos creator [16:04:43] I don't think neither any of us will ever see CosmicAlpha anytime soon [16:04:51] like, idk [16:06:41] just recreated something- [16:09:40] I've got to now get back to work now and wash cars [16:14:34] Sounds good, feel free to ask any questions about cosmos here, our community is pretty knowledgeable and happy to help where we can. [16:30:40] I just learned more about Wikibase and how to work with data, so hey, may someone needs that [16:31:36] I'm doing a marvel a one to cover every live action film since the mcu wikia does not [16:31:50] The raimi and webb film.s [16:38:14] I'd have to find info templates fo things [16:46:46] The easiest way to create an infobox was to use an extension, known as the PortableInfobox [16:47:06] You can enable it in `Special:ManageWiki/extensions` [16:48:44] Once you made one yourself and look at the box's code, It basically look just like an styled XML file. [17:05:29] heya hiya [17:06:31] Hello 👋 [17:17:48] I made you bureau and admin btw though I need to fully set the wiki up, and invite my friend to be admin [17:21:39] That's rather kind, but not needed. 🙂 I'm a Steward with WikiTide, which means that I have an equivalent-ish amount of access on all wikis to assist when vandalism or technical issues arise. Happy to provide some guidance as you work through setting up your wiki though. [17:25:23] You may remove yourself on it, I don't got access to remove bureau, that's something Lady Lostris and Kylara would have access to do [17:31:10] on FANDOM same rules when you make someone a bureau you can't remove it unless a wiki rep is contacted [17:31:25] Yep, those are powers I have. Will do so in a bit [17:37:07] Ok [17:45:46] When I'm logged out, still shows the modern theme [17:46:10] Probably I have to go to the cosmos server [18:03:15] Nope, you need to further adjust your managewiki settings. [18:03:17] https://marvelverse.wikitide.org/wiki/Special:ManageWiki/settings#mw-section-styling [18:03:45] At the moment you've set the default mobile skin to cosmos, but the default desktop skin is still vector-2022 [18:04:48] When logged in, it'll use whatever your personal preference is, but when logged out it'll show the default. [18:08:59] It won't let me change the default page [18:09:38] Just tested and it worked for me... do you happen to still be logged out? [18:09:51] Nvm [18:09:53] It worked [18:26:49] Any Steward available to shutdown the SMW for my wiki? [18:30:10] I can handle that in a bit, need to check with the others to confirm if there's any other special requirements to avoid breaking things. [18:30:42] This is for lhmnwikitide, yes? [18:32:02] Yes, and I understand the risks. [18:37:28] the only thing it mentioned when disable that was every db tables for SMW will be permanently deleted. [18:40:53] Yep, just checking with the SRE team first to ensure there's nothing unique to our setup that could cause problems. [18:43:59] Do I go on wiki manage to add a logo [18:44:15] y e s [18:44:20] Okl [18:45:10] btw, it must be an direct URL to the logo file itself, not just the file name or "File:`filename`" [18:45:50] Yep, this is the setting you'll want to change under styling: [18:47:43] why don't I see the LocalSettings variable there? [18:49:03] ? [18:49:41] I have the marvel font [18:50:07] Oh, there were some recent ManageWiki changes, which is also why the 'manage your wiki's settings' navigation stuff is missing. Will be looking into that later today when I have free time [18:50:52] I'm gonna get my friend to sign up and be a admin on marvelverse wiki [18:51:02] actually I didn't talk about that, but hey [18:51:58] and yet, no one have got to my ManageWiki/settings... [18:53:05] today at almost 2AM of the second day to NNN. [18:55:50] Apologies for the delay on this, we've got a very limited SRE team at present and are working as quickly as we can while juggling RL responsibilities. That one's unfortunately outside my skillset but we have absolutely not forgotten about it. [18:56:36] I see, but I just want to have some of the search configs changed [18:56:59] well, I guess we will wait, again, lol [18:58:37] shutting down my laptop right now ig, good night to myselg [19:01:02] I added the logo on my wiki [19:01:08] I hope it shkws [19:10:25] [1/2] You don't have the URL quite right, you'll need this one: [19:10:25] [2/2] `https://static.wikiforge.net/marvelversewikitide/e/e6/Marvelverse_Logo.png` [19:11:25] Oh [19:21:08] Done [19:22:32] Do I upload a file of the favicon [19:32:29] I uploaded the favicon file I want [19:32:39] What do I add on the favicon tab managewiki settings [19:34:20] The easiest way to get the static address is to go to the file you uploaded, and then right-click on either the name link, or on larger images, the 'view original image' link. [19:34:46] ^this thing, then click 'copy link address' [19:34:56] Ok [19:35:02] There [19:35:17] That'll get you the static URL, which you can then paste into the favicon text box on the style page [19:35:35] Done [19:36:33] So do I have to find a template on MediaWiki for actors and characters and films? [19:36:46] I'm gonna create a page called Tobey Maguire [19:40:29] As a test [19:46:57] I'm the only admin and bureau, is anyone a marvel fan [19:50:32] im gonna wanna add colors on roles like others wikias do [19:50:48] [1/2] bureaucrats will have red [19:50:48] [2/2] admins green [20:32:08] I think the create account is disabled [20:35:17] Does it say create account button signed off [20:35:49] Looks like it doesn't [20:37:48] They can create an account at https://meta.wikitide.org/wiki/Special:CreateAccount [20:39:13] The create account button permissions is tied to the * group, which corresponds to all users. It looks like you deleted it on your wiki in an attempt to prevent IP editing [20:40:20] For future reference, it's better to just remove the edit permission from * and add it to Users instead [20:41:48] I undone it [20:42:50] I'm gonna have to find help making templates from someone [20:46:45] And probably help to add colors on users who are staffs [20:51:12] [1/7] Add these to one of your global CSS files with Username replaced with the usernames of the users (replace spaces with underscores) and the hex code replaced with the color you want [20:51:12] [2/7] ```css [20:51:12] [3/7] a[href$=":Username"], [20:51:13] [4/7] a[href$="/Username"] { [20:51:13] [5/7] color: #FF00FF !important; [20:51:13] [6/7] } [20:51:14] [7/7] ``` [20:51:22] Ok [20:51:34] What should the page name be [20:51:51] MediaWiki:Common.css if you want it to apply to all skins [20:52:10] MediWiki:Cosmos.css applies to only cosmos and so on [20:52:47] It won't let me edit [20:53:30] You'll need to enable two factor authentication (under preferences) first [20:53:34] Oh [20:56:00] Done [20:57:21] Still locked [21:05:15] Like this? [21:05:43] remove the CSS label on top, it's not a valid css keyword [21:05:46] Ok [21:06:06] Done [21:06:15] Anything on !important [21:07:01] Important just means it overrides other styles, so if the links are meant to show a non-default color, they will still show this color if they link to your user [21:08:40] https://marvelverse.wikitide.org/wiki/User:CrimsonArcher/MediaWiki:Common.css [21:10:47] The code works, global css changes just take some time to apply [21:10:53] Oh [21:31:33] https://marvelverse.wikitide.org/wiki/Tobey_Maguire
