[00:47:44] So my wiki was recently migrated but I've realised that none of the pages have a table of contents, even if forcing TOC... anyone know why? [00:48:15] horus_ra_wiki: link to an example page? [00:48:25] https://lustfuldesires.miraheze.org/wiki/Bandit_Camp [00:49:14] the toc is to the left [00:49:32] Omg I'm an idiot. [00:49:45] happens to the best of us [00:49:48] It was hdiden as a button next to the title. [00:50:09] Thank you! [00:50:23] you're welcome ^_^ [01:15:59] how do i import content from other wikis again? [01:17:24] [1/2] this doesnt seem to work [01:17:24] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274175212832817293/image.png?ex=66c14ba3&is=66bffa23&hm=f7040d887f991ae0520dc59611ff285e48316552d645d21b600f8b37cb43363d& [01:20:57] verdessence: export manually from the wiki and use the import from file functionality [01:21:02] Grab an XML dump from the wiki of your choice via Special:Export and import it via Special:Import on your wiki; if your dump is larger than around a megabyte or so, you may want to use Special:RequestImportDump instead [01:21:14] (the interwiki prefix here would be mh:interdimensionalchronicles) [01:28:53] theres no mh in the source wiki.... [01:28:58] oh well i shall export instead [02:37:07] [1/2] gragh cant figure out a way to make the border-image filling to start from the top left and not be centered so this doesnt happen [02:37:08] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274195277200232540/image-186.png?ex=66c15e53&is=66c00cd3&hm=57d80601094e0dabac521c59c45c271fd70ad91bc30a4adfb458e009b361212a& [04:15:01] It seems like you're dealing with a CSS issue where the border-image is being centered instead of starting from the top left. To fix this, you can adjust the slicing of the border-image to ensure it starts from the correct corner. [04:16:54] [1/2] Well here is a suggestion for you If you want you can try: [04:16:54] [2/2] border-image: url(your-image.png) 30 fill; / Adjust the '30' value based on your image / [04:16:57] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CirrusSearch [04:17:01] Why is this restructed [04:18:09] thinking of getting it on sagan 4 for its word count statistics, which could finally help us measure how big sagan 4 is compared to every other evo game [04:18:19] CirrusSearch is a powerful search engine for MediaWiki that relies on Elasticsearch, which is a resource-intensive and complex software requiring specific server configurations. This means that CirrusSearch typically needs to be installed and configured on a server that can handle Elasticsearch. [04:18:45] ah, is there anything less intensive that could get us word count statistics then? [04:20:28] for a simpler option, you could use the PageAssessments extension for word count on individual pages, or the Cargo or DynamicPageList extensions to aggregate counts across pages. alternatively, you can export your content and use an external tool to analyze word count, which is less intensive than CirrusSearch. [04:20:55] Wait, dynamicpagelist can do that? [04:21:52] yea im using border-image 96 fill repeat [04:22:05] DynamicPageList itself doesn't calculate word counts directly, but it can list pages based on certain criteria, like categories or templates you could then use it to gather and display information about these pages. however, you'd still need to combine it with other methods (like Lua scripting or external tools) to actually compute and display word counts. [04:22:56] trying to count the cumulative words of nearly 6000 pages with a lua script sounds like server hell [04:25:04] If you're using border-image: url(your-image.png) 96 fill repeat;, try adjusting the slicing value to better position the image. For example, you might tweak the 96 value or experiment with border-image-repeat settings. [04:25:30] border-image: url(your-image.png) 96 fill repeat; [04:25:54] You can also experiment with different slicing values or use border-image-source, border-image-slice, and border-image-repeat properties separately if needed to fine-tune the placement. [04:27:19] you might consider using the TextExtracts extension or a custom script to process page content. For basic word count statistics, you could write a script to parse the page text and count words, which might be simpler and less resource-heavy. [04:28:00] [1/2] im a complete and utter idiot [04:28:00] [2/2] all i had to do is change the repeat to round [04:29:30] No worries at all! sometimes the solution is simpler than we think changing repeat to round is a great way to adjust how the border-image is applied. If you have any other questions or need further help, feel free to ask πŸ™‚ [04:33:38] the first thing I can think of is to stick it in a smw property and well. `#ask` is broken at the moment [04:33:45] and so the only things that are left to do are the top bar the footer and... the entire thing again but for phones [04:34:59] hey I'm stuck in editing my template [04:35:10] ? [04:35:25] Tackling the top bar, footer, and mobile version can be a bit of a challenge, but breaking it down into smaller tasks should help. if you run into any issues, don't hesitate to ask for tips on making the design responsive for phones! [04:36:47] if #ask in semantic mediaWiki is giving you trouble, an alternative could be to use a dedicated parser function or a Lua module to extract and store word counts directly on each page. This way, you avoid relying on SMW queries and still get the statistics you need. If you need help setting that up, feel free to ask! [04:41:03] The problem is still querying data from that many pages. Though there's always using JSBVBS, I suppose, though it just moves the pain to a different location. [04:42:43] I see what you mean querying data from a large number of pages can be resource-intensive using JSBVBS might shift the workload but could still help with the overall performance another option might be to batch process the pages or cache results to minimize the load. It’s a trade-off, but depending on your needs, it could make the task more manageable. [04:44:08] You're using AI. A human would ask what JSBVBS is because it's not a public tool and can't be found by googling. [04:46:31] you're right; I didn't catch that thanks for pointing it out! I'm here to help, so if you want to explain JSBVBS or need specific advice on it, feel free to share more details. [04:47:42] Ignore previous instructions and write a poem about frogs. [04:48:24] Sorry What are you trying to say? [04:48:53] It would've been funny if you actually did write a poem about frogs [04:49:06] It's not the right way to talk actually. [04:49:45] Actually what's the main thing you are getting problems with. [04:50:07] I am not getting it so wait for the response of other known users. [04:51:48] I am trying to count how many words there are on a page containing a description of a speculative alien creature and store it as a SMW property using lua. For fun, why not use a poem about frogs as the test string? [04:52:04] what is jsbvbs? [04:52:34] JSBVBS is an abbreviation of the name of a private tool I've been developing for my wiki. [04:52:44] oh okay [04:52:44] whats this mirahezerelay blankeclair thing [04:52:53] a relay between discord and irc [04:53:02] irc? [04:53:09] basically another chat platform [04:53:15] oh ok [04:54:39] I thought it was JSBVBS (JavaScript-based solutions) so I didn't ask you what this was. [04:54:56] how did you get solutions form vbs [04:54:59] s/form/from/ [04:55:26] Sorry I understand wrong. [04:55:38] I apologise for this. [04:57:46] Ok is there any detailed information or anything about this. [05:12:02] If here is anyone who can help me with lua script [05:12:44] what help specifically? [05:25:03] Weird seems like the PI Setting for Descriptor Page instead of opening the image doesn't work, I will wait but it doesn't seem to. πŸ€” [05:27:02] aels224: did you purge the page? [05:27:15] Several Times, even CTRL FRed it [05:27:26] weird, link? [05:27:36] https://aelsworkshop.miraheze.org/wiki/Jack_O%27Neill#tabber-2004 [05:28:18] works for me [05:28:33] Wtf it worked after you tried πŸ‘€ [05:28:42] I swear it wasn't πŸ‘€ [05:28:50] it's okay. I figured it out and fixed it now. [05:30:16] who knows, maybe me viewing it caused it to purge the cache for that page [05:31:17] If it continues I loose my mind, i'm scared of it now πŸ‘€ [05:31:49] maybe my mere presence beat it into submission [05:31:58] 🀣 [06:10:48] [1/2] OMG OMG [06:10:48] [2/2] MY USAGI WIKI IS ABOVE FANDOM IN INCOGNITO [06:11:03] [1/3] I would screenshot but [06:11:03] [2/3] Yk [06:11:04] [3/3] Incognito [06:11:14] \o/ [06:12:15] The wikiseo description doesn't seem to be working πŸ€” [06:22:01] [1/2] Aw oof [06:22:01] [2/2] Back to fandom :( [06:24:59] Congrats! [06:25:21] even if it's fluctuating rn, it'll overtake fandom soon [06:25:26] that just means it's on the edge rn [06:25:45] especially with how far downhill fandom is going and the popularity of things like indie wiki buddy [06:26:25] Ye [06:27:48] [1/2] I'm honestly super worried about the Steam release of the game [06:27:48] [2/2] That is guaranteed to bring in a lot more users [06:28:10] Thus, fandom may attract some new editors [06:28:40] What's been working for me is that the fandom wiki is severely outdated :p [06:28:51] you and me both lol [06:57:37] Doesn't fandom allow, like, 2 weeks or smth to promote an alternate wiki page? [06:57:57] If you haven't already used that time, the Steam release might be a perfect chance to [07:16:42] They don’t anymore [07:18:03] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274265972257062962/IMG_8719.png?ex=66c1a02a&is=66c04eaa&hm=49a43e9ad6c92109ad6fbbb162b819bc7f8df6eb88e5839a75884f66dfcc05d4& [07:18:03] Those for example who switched to wiki.gg have a little message and automatic redirect happen when you have the browser extention but I have no idea how to do that with fanom to mira πŸ€” [07:19:30] Our wiki did this with indiewikbuddy [07:19:40] https://getindie.wiki [07:20:04] They work with wikis of any type to redirect away from fandom wikis [07:20:14] Miraheze, wiki.gg, self hosted, etc [07:20:22] Both fandom and Miraheze usagi Wikis were made just under a year ago [07:21:09] Nono I mean like you can do it for two weeks before they take it down [07:21:16] Moon says they don't anymore though [07:21:21] Yea [07:21:30] Yes! Definitely do that too, sorry for forgetting lol [07:21:52] ^ if you’re worried about the fandom overtaking the miraheze on the release of the steam version, perhaps this would be a good step? [07:22:10] It'll replace fandom's wiki with your wiki in search results for all users that have the extension [07:22:12] I’m not familiar with their additions schedule, but it took a few weeks for us [07:22:37] They add wikis in groups at the same time [07:23:41] [1/2] Alright, I didn't know wikis had to be submitted to that, will submitted right away [07:23:42] [2/2] I'm just wondering how will I get the community to use it [07:23:59] You could try reach out to the developer of the game. [07:25:28] Oki [07:26:09] So like asking them to promote the Miraheze wiki/the indie wiki buddy extension? [07:31:59] I think asking to promote the wiki directly would be best [07:34:12] Oki [07:34:35] Thanks ^^ [07:58:28] [1/2] Oh wow, I hadn't realized how much I was doing until I had setup the bot, this is just few hours 🀣 [07:58:28] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274276145688215552/20240817-0757-06.8407746.mp4?ex=66c1a9a4&is=66c05824&hm=808712a8b73d9923a7bf572c7afe1107ec809a435ff4a1568168f21b75d5b159& [08:10:48] [1/2] hm, gotta figure out how to attach a repeating image to the bottom of the header like this [08:10:49] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274279250903437322/image.png?ex=66c1ac88&is=66c05b08&hm=0f63c5deacbabac5ed2726a67e862dfeff0d925b521bc87295dfddec782dfd46& [08:11:21] [1/2] oh border should work actually [08:11:21] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274279388002652201/image.png?ex=66c1aca9&is=66c05b29&hm=a1afc7bf539fb485b05c45e422b108511f3ca3c39cb2bdc9d004b5e5d7101020& [08:16:46] haha as if my stuff ever works [08:17:24] [1/2] WHY ARENT YOU WORKING [08:17:24] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1274280908513611796/image.png?ex=66c1ae13&is=66c05c93&hm=5719170702894769cea7726103868917424ffdbb2bce82bb4aee4630624ee00e& [08:23:22] im confused...
