[01:05:44] how do i make a template appear on every users talk page? i made a template that just includes ({{Enablecomments}}) to enable comments using the comments extension, but i dont want people to have to manually put it on their pages. [01:05:45] [01:05:54] what [01:31:10] It should be finally fixed now [03:20:13] [1/2] is there an extension to get fandom-like discussions? im moving a wiki from fandom to miraheze and no one who uses my wiki has used anything other than fandom before. [03:20:14] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419523657260204094/120FB651-98B4-4A9F-B400-248DAEDC283B.png?ex=68d211ed&is=68d0c06d&hm=ba286e0504b7144658fd76f77212f5ab7add3144cd73a03dd498197487e7ec59& [03:44:30] Not quite, I don't think anything really replicates Discussions [03:47:48] On UT/DR we set up separate forum software and integrated it with MediaWiki but I don't think you would ever be able to set that up on Miraheze [03:50:24] I mean, its a custom extension, some config vars on the mw side, an OAuth, and the rest is on Discourse right? [03:51:01] There's no OAuth [03:51:41] i remember looking at a while back(very cool stuff, respect), I think it could be theoritically possible if you bring your own Discourse(not sure, id need to recheck with an awake brain and probably someone in tech). not that its something you should try to do on miraheze [03:51:54] Yes it's just a MediaWiki and Discourse extension to bridge them [03:53:03] We configure them to communicate entirely locally but it should be configurable for external communication as well [03:53:58] Without code changes, I mean [03:55:01] So yes someone could do it if they host Discourse themselves and Miraheze installs our custom extension [03:56:00] But our extension is made to work for our use cases, some of which may be specific [04:09:15] WikiTide did offer that briefly pre-merger but we never got around to implanting the idea on a larger scale [08:02:18] [1/2] Guys, I still can't log in at all :( [08:02:18] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419594644160774217/image.png?ex=68d25409&is=68d10289&hm=97fbad931667a49a09015ecc62424f43ab8747ae65ec85a6c07b896feae3c1c9& [08:03:20] tried clearing cache and cookies again, or logging in via incognito, nothing works [08:28:59] can you login on meta? [08:29:31] someone once fixed by logging in on meta, logging out and then logging in on the local wiki [08:32:55] Damn, it actually fixed it! [08:33:22] woohoo [08:33:23] Thanks man 🙏 [08:33:30] Have a great day! [09:20:11] [1/3] I think Blue Archive Wiki has beaten its fandom counterpart in SEO. It is on top every time I searched for it in incognito mode for the past 2 weeks. I had not seen such consistency before. [09:20:11] [2/3] This is in spite of both wikis existing in parallel since 2021 and the fandom wiki having more active editors. I think this is the result of having editors experienced in automation: lots of content, lots of readership, but less inviting for others to contribute. [09:20:11] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419614242885210163/image.png?ex=68d2664a&is=68d114ca&hm=dcb1cf5b1f2f9c9463da736f1697e47504db8c17db301f621925b57a160720e3& [09:31:33] Hi guys, why do some png images look correct (transparent background) meanwhile some literally right next to it show the white background? How to fix? Thanks [09:41:06] can you drop a link where this is happening? [09:41:47] https://snagowiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [09:41:49] Our main page [09:43:55] since the wiki itself is white im not sure where the problem is exactly [09:44:17] Is it? [09:44:29] On both my screens the background is grayish [09:44:45] hmm [09:45:01] [1/2] theres a little bg difference between some nav buttons [09:45:02] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419620495577448468/image0.jpg?ex=68d26c1d&is=68d11a9d&hm=58fefac36de1684329ce139495c895fce9cdbcf12128747a5a2f514e5d5a9654& [09:45:07] identity & visions [09:45:16] i see now yeah [09:45:27] im trying to check how templates is coded [09:45:56] gallery [09:46:04] Probably coded pretty badly [09:46:09] I'm not particularly skilled [09:47:07] [1/2] no, it's okay I would only add that images itself act as links, w/ `|link=...` syntax [09:47:07] [2/2] you haven't modified gallery css tho? it uses white bg for images by default [09:48:12] I don't think I have [09:48:19] But in that case why would some of them be fine and others not [09:48:19] hm [09:48:22] Thanks for the help [09:49:33] [1/3] this is what i did on my wiki [09:49:33] [2/3] `.mw-body li.gallerybox div.thumb { [09:49:33] [3/3] background: transparent;` [09:50:23] that I'm not sure, my connection isn't very stable, but i looked into template page they all had backgrounds [09:51:03] Yeah, I'll look into it [09:51:06] Thanks [09:56:23] [1/3] https://snagowiki.miraheze.org/wiki/File:SnagoWiki_Visions.svg [09:56:23] [2/3] https://snagowiki.miraheze.org/wiki/File:SnagoWiki_Identity.svg [09:56:23] [3/3] It's a problem with the images themselves. Visions has a white background. Identity's background is transparent. [09:57:34] No. When I open in Inkscape it doesn't have a background [09:57:44] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419623696045178931/image.png?ex=68d26f18&is=68d11d98&hm=1fabed593b6ab8be4608dcec3b1fe6f4e3980d4a53a9fb36618100630707832d& [09:58:20] Might be something wrong with the document properties though? [09:58:22] I'll check [10:00:29] Yeah you're right. Might have something to do with how MediaWiki handles them. [10:01:33] I've noticed that when opening as original file, there is a white background in the "page" even though it is set as transparent, probably an Inkscape bug [10:01:48] I will try and re-make the files in new page documents with transparent backgrounds and see if that fixes it [10:01:49] Thanks [10:44:30] [1/2] this tallpedia thing is sending welcome messages to literally every single miraheze user [10:44:30] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419635463089684603/image.png?ex=68d27a0d&is=68d1288d&hm=f08a6ce27c2f4a592ef828a84508b6758319de56b75c5585a0c423c367e9f31c& [10:44:57] can someone stop this [10:45:03] kinda annoying [10:45:53] only on first visit or? [10:46:10] I never visited it [10:46:22] and I'm sure none of those people ever visited it either [10:46:47] either their bot is malfunctioning or the admin is using a genius method to draw attention to his wiki but it's really annoying [10:50:08] really weird [10:51:03] i de never visited it and never got an email from it either [10:52:25] [1/2] oh wait I did visit it [10:52:26] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419637457414131742/image.png?ex=68d27be9&is=68d12a69&hm=3e190f649f59a3a2cf097db5604973136e133d2666384d710307a07bc103fa83& [10:52:28] I don't remember doing so tho [11:36:05] [1/2] I've just upgraded Citizen on beta and it seems to be fixed on 1.44 (although the icon is gone as seen in the screenshot), but FYI it isn't on 1.45: (doesn't matter right now though since it's not released yet anyways) [11:36:05] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1419648443567177758/image.png?ex=68d28624&is=68d134a4&hm=35f25db097313aa5bb3aaf373380d18d83bd3fbd02fa7b6f3cfbbcef4eb7527f& [11:41:50] I've also upgraded it on prod now and it's fixed on some wikis, but not on e.g. [11:42:31] On it's fixed, so maybe it's still broken on wikis that didn't modify their sidebar?
