[03:14:00] background size cover? [03:28:17] probably [03:41:49] You could lay a linear gradient on top of the image using another element or a pseudo-element. Another option could be using `linear-gradient()` with `mask-image` to make the image fade to being transparent and placing solid color behind the image [03:44:29] [1/2] That's interesting! [03:44:29] [2/2] What would the code look like exactly? [03:57:12] [1/10] The pseudo-element would look like this, but it would be for something like a div that shows the image using background-image [03:57:13] [2/10] ``` [03:57:13] [3/10] #image-div::after { [03:57:13] [4/10] content: ""; [03:57:14] [5/10] display: block; [03:57:14] [6/10] width: 100%; [03:57:14] [7/10] height: 100%; [03:57:14] [8/10] background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, transparent 20%, color 80%); [03:57:15] [9/10] } [03:57:15] [10/10] ``` [03:58:26] And that would need to be put in a css page [04:01:58] If you're looking to do it inline, you could achieve the same with the background-image line on a div that's absolute positioned over the image [04:03:36] Interesting, thank you! [04:06:52] can local admins apply to get the lock feature? [04:07:04] i tired of alt accounts getting created [04:11:40] No. Long answer once I'm back at a keyboard [04:21:04] How do you enter a single line break with VisualEditor? Is "Shift + Enter" disabled? [04:22:50] Why not put the image into the infobox? [05:16:00] [1/4] To expand on previous answer on why lock powers to local admins/crats won't ever be granted: [05:16:01] [2/4] * Local lock through CentralAuth isn't a thing, and would be essentially duplicative of local block [05:16:01] [3/4] * Global lock is a highly-impactful and disruptive permission that has a high possibility for abuse [05:16:01] [4/4] * Granting this capability to local adminstrators would massively increas global volunteer monitoring duties in a way that we can't support. [05:55:19] [1/3] sigh Anyone know why these two look so different despite me using the same source?

[06:08:18] [1/7] These screenshots were taken on the same device. I ended up just doing [06:08:18] [2/7] [06:08:18] [3/7] type=create [06:08:19] [4/7] break=no [06:08:19] [5/7] width=50 [06:08:19] [6/7] /inputbox [06:08:19] [7/7] Even though the original box (the second image) didn't have any of that. Not sure why it's so skinny when it's default width actually... [06:08:53] [1/5] It's just [06:08:53] [2/5] [06:08:53] [3/5] type= create [06:08:54] [4/5] break= no [06:08:54] [5/5] /inputbox [06:09:35] But I guess I'll add a set width so it doesn't ever... change? I dunno. [06:10:00] If it works it works. [06:23:41] you need type=search2 [06:41:40] wait wrong type srry [07:37:34] Hi! I made several months ago a Wiki about my fictional country, San Álvaro, and I was wondering how could I integrate in it the various templates used in the classic Wikipedia such as country template, or municipality, sports team... [07:39:28] Plus, I'm thinking to remake all of the Wiki: is there a way to "delete" all of the edits made and start from scratch? Or request a new wiki and delete the one im currently using? [07:43:58] [1/5] iirc you can ask a steward for reset @ [[SR]] [07:43:58] [2/5] as for templates, we strongly discourage newcomers to copy things from Wikipedia due to how complicated are things over there [07:43:58] [3/5] ideally any wiki admin should understand how wiki pages work, learning to make templates and stuff step by step, such as [[Infoboxes]] [07:43:59] [4/5] but we also have some ready solutions to import at Dev Wiki [07:43:59] [5/5] [[dev:Category:Infobox templates]] [07:43:59]

[1/3] [07:44:00]

[2/3] [07:44:00]

[3/3] [07:44:19] I edit on Wikipedia regularly tho [07:44:43] I have been making the various templates by hand [07:44:57] I wanted to integrate them just to save time [07:45:37] well, if you know what are you doing (namely, Lua modules), you can import templates from Wikipedia, see section at Infoboxes guide [07:46:17] Alright, thanks! [09:08:59] is there a place i can find all the image files i've uploaded to my wiki? [09:09:30] Special:AllFiles or Special:NewFiles [09:09:46] also Special:ListFiles [09:10:29] my bad AllFiles doesn't exist [09:10:50] danke [09:36:29] How do I add date to my signature? 🤔 [09:37:43] And if it's possible to do without adding timestamp, that'd be great :) [09:41:50] the `` does it automatically [09:44:03] Ah so, 4 adds date? :o [09:44:10] I was doing `~~~` ;o [09:48:34] i knew only 4 ones lol [09:50:27] 🧐 [09:50:47] Maybe I did 4, but weird, when I did it, it only added the name, now when I did it again, it added time and date [10:13:27] I'm thinking of updating my video tutorial for making PI infoboxes. My previous one was just a "narrating along as I make a PI and use it on a page". Are there specific things that are frequently asked/frequently misunderstood regarding infoboxes that would be good to include/point out/emphasize? [12:32:56] [1/4] Does anyone know if there's a way to have to images horizontal together in a portable infobox? Using this code didn't seem to work. ``` [12:32:57] [2/4] /image [12:32:57] [3/4] /image [12:32:57] [4/4] /group``` [12:34:27] it won't work [12:34:54] i forgot again, is it navigation or format tag [12:35:07] inside which you can do normal wikitext/html [12:35:17] w/ template syntax [12:35:41] so you can position two images + caption inside that tag [12:36:01] Probably format. [12:36:05] ill try that next. [12:38:35] I've done that before I just don't have examples lol [12:39:12] probably should to make PI versions of normal infoboxes on dev [13:43:15] [1/2] We haven't uploaded infobox images yet. [13:43:15] [2/2] Also, I'm using a dummy page while I experiment with things, it's not a real page. [13:52:55] was about to edit my new wiki request because I forgot to add the two names of cancelled video games on the topic until the AI created my wiki already, lol [13:53:56] great success! [14:36:52] hi [15:01:57] Not a meaningful divergence from stated scope, you're good. [15:08:53] [1/2] hey why are infoboxes correctly render in only light mode? [15:08:53] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1379839330729726154/image.png?ex=6841b304&is=68406184&hm=028404faa74708e1f3233a9418a4e36417a531c1b569b8ebcb41813173750310& [15:09:17] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1379839433104162856/image.png?ex=6841b31d&is=6840619d&hm=4c256c063a2f75b5af7493f82437507ddf2c3978b5d6934851df89c165a65fb7& [15:09:55] srry its a bit messy in terms of formatting [15:12:36] no one has a clue? [15:15:33] replies are not likely to be immediate on things like this [15:15:59] it looks to me some of the styling was hardcoded and it either needs to be redesigned to fit with dark mode, in which case I will pull up a guide for that, or not hardcoded [15:16:22] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:PetraMagna/Dark_mode [15:19:01] thanks [15:28:03] @raidarr i tried [15:30:07] that is not much for me to work with [15:30:36] if you have gone through the guide and have not had successful results, I would propose you make a #support and cover with some detail what you have tried [15:34:08] How long should it take to hear back from the stewards in an email? [15:34:27] varies by who is available [15:34:33] if it came in now I would see it rather quickly [15:34:51] but then some give or take depending on complexity [15:35:15] i fixed it [15:35:18] thanks [15:35:22] excellent [15:35:46] I think our email was sent weeks ago, with no reply [15:36:08] then it fell between the cracks and may need to be resent, apologies [15:36:15] i added a css part to my template that worked [15:36:20] 'thanks again [15:36:54] Can i have the email again? Just to make sure it goes to the right one? [15:37:04] stewards@miraheze.org [15:37:15] Thank you [15:37:17] if you message me with the email that sent or the title I can also see if it got forgotten or never delivered [15:37:38] Lemme @meaningfulusername [15:39:01] I think they’re the ones who sent it [15:50:12] Error 503 Backend fetch failed via cp37 [15:50:59] nevermind its fixed [16:16:32] To my knowledge I've responded to all Steward emails received, so definitely need to find where it fell through the cracks (or possibly into spam filter) [16:22:02] that's a good thought, nothing in there now that I check but still [16:55:31] I didn’t send it so you’ll have to wait for the admin (pinged) to respond [17:01:45] @reception123 sorry for this, but i think you should check the ticket 😅 (13769) (and help with importing images) [17:20:34] Thanks for the reply, I'll have a look [17:40:07] [1/3] The navigation bar for cosmos on mobile is different from my wiki compared to another and things such as the notification and messages take you it separate page rather than a dropdown [17:40:07] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1379877391114965022/IMG_5710.png?ex=6841d676&is=684084f6&hm=7cd7f97d931810e13ca87b81074e9aebb9f0150f2f9918de8ff6b53862e38a22& [17:40:08] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1379877391413022821/IMG_5709.png?ex=6841d676&is=684084f6&hm=af36108b9a3d265b7d5df2080d6e1e3c0dfebd113a8c3b6e7c6dc38c69404e52& [17:40:18] Does anybody know why this is the case? [17:41:13] You also have to long press the profile button on mobile otherwise it won’t work [17:44:24] avatar is provided by another extension iirc [17:47:52] What about the differences in how the navigation buttons works? [17:49:06] [1/2] that i don't know, i can only guess something in css might be too much? [17:49:07] [2/2] also is mobile frontend extension involved? [17:51:52] Mobile frontend seems to have been the cause [17:52:06] 👍 [17:54:33] all my homies hate mobile frontend [18:47:49] I was just having a headache trying to figure out why css randomly stopped loading (on desktop) until I realized it was all mobile frontend’s doing [18:51:39] [1/2] Why is this random image on the background of the Timeless skin? [18:51:40] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1379895395240644750/image.png?ex=6841e73b&is=684095bb&hm=75705daf04d8f2cdad69f01a43a4be997a34536def098714c417c96bc5713310& [18:52:50] it's default bg image of timeless yeah [19:20:04] @raidarr @notaracham Hi, I sent the first email nine days ago and the follow-up five days ago. The subject line is "Content Policy." It wasn't sent from the email linked to my Miraheze profile; could that be the issue? [19:22:12] generally no if it was not related to your account specifically [19:23:07] I'm not seeing that though, might need to resend, and ensure it heads to stewards@miraheze.org [19:26:20] That was the address I used, although I tried forwarding the email to the address again just now. [19:29:51] Yeah, it's absolutely not making it through, can you double check that the address is correct and ends in .org? [19:30:10] That last bit often trips folks up. [19:30:50] I'll try sending a new email, which is probably for the best, as I just realized I accidentally signed the second one with my real name. [19:31:08] perhaps cc it to raidarr@miraheze.org just for good measure maybe [19:32:31] you wouldn't happen to be using outlook, would you? have had friends who have issues like that with outlook [19:33:39] I am not using Outlook. [19:34:15] Okay, just sent the email and CC'd Raidarr. [19:34:46] hopefully the email goblins do not eat it on the way [19:41:18] @raidarr Is the email in your inbox? Same subject line as before. [20:01:03] aha, it did land [20:01:10] @notaracham for you? [21:31:09] :3 [21:39:33] Nope [21:41:15] [1/2] Is this not it? [21:41:15] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1379938076008382544/Screenshot_2025-06-04_at_5.40.56_PM.png?ex=68420efb&is=6840bd7b&hm=d5993dc11eb4986b642c4ca0815a426b9e245ce0a3ac62dfebebb0f9639c5f5b& [21:44:57] It should be I think? [21:54:39] That's what I get when hovering over the addresses I sent it to. [22:10:37] Raidarr has successfully received a copy and can forward relevant details [22:12:49] Thanks for bearing w/ the hiccups, emails getting so filtered that they don't even hit inbox or spam is an absolute rarity since we switched to google's nonprofit plan [23:44:27] what's really weird is how I got it because the email system is the same [23:45:00] thank the email goddesses
