[01:11:20] [1/2] does anyone if the background (behind the page) is css or implemented by monobook itself?

[03:11:27] [3/5] I know something's gone wrong, but could someone help me identify the cause? [03:11:28] [4/5] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426406816522440786/Screen_Recording_2025-10-10_at_9.57.15_PM.mov?ex=68eb1c5e&is=68e9cade&hm=dfbfbf6ebe6abbc8d9405e8dcc1a85cf8285be0d8a612f9c4001922957db6cd7& [03:11:28] [5/5] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426406817403244644/image.png?ex=68eb1c5e&is=68e9cade&hm=fe5ed1ea99031871820fbcbc785e2d8735ff6d15f9acf331f018446ded17ec27& [03:24:22] ??? [03:24:30] why aren't any channels online [03:33:52] It probably takes a while for the SSL info to be updated. Your wiki works on my end though. [03:34:20] Try a different browser/device and see if it works. Might have been some local cache that's preventing the custom domain from working. [03:34:29] does it show the regular subdomain or the custom domain? [03:34:40] I have a wiki editor who encountered the same problems I did [03:34:54] I initially thought it was just limited to me because of caching and would fix itself later [03:35:03] him having the same problem is why I asked [03:35:07] It redirects to the custom domain, which is working properly [03:35:15] huh, weird [03:36:09] [1/2] just tried on a different browser ๐Ÿ˜ญ [03:36:09] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426413035375038617/image.png?ex=68eb2229&is=68e9d0a9&hm=8384c41ace16692467cee2ffab9f63465ad3dc3fb5210aa4dcc36a16c9b98050& [03:36:21] it redirects from the subdomain to here [03:36:32] may I see how it looks like from your side? [03:37:22] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426413339575062640/image.png?ex=68eb2271&is=68e9d0f1&hm=11eba737ae6caa6b4c4f3c6a615d31f0df89800604a7c66c25539b4317bed313& [03:38:26] wow that's really weird [03:38:33] yeah it might just be cache acting up? [03:38:43] I'll ask my editor if he's still facing the same problem [03:38:54] hopefully it'll clear up if so [03:39:59] If you switch to your phone (being on a different network) it might be fine. [03:42:47] Also, the way you set your paddings will make the wiki a lot less mobile-friendly. Consider using https://dev.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Background to replace your current version of the BackgroundImage gadget because it is pretty outdated at this point. [03:46:04] hmm [03:46:22] I asked this question in the past here and I got recommended the method strinova.org used lol [03:47:18] With that said, I'm personally not happy with the direction Template:Background is going. It basically seeks to recreate Citizen's semi-transparent feel on Vector 2022 (as well as vector and timeless) with the same drawbacks as citizen (blur is resource-intensive and the css is prone to breakages due to skin updates). [03:49:42] [1/2] That was meant to get you started since strinova.org's approach is close to minimal. It also went through several rounds of changes since the beginning of August. [03:49:43] [2/2] https://strinova.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-BackgroundImage.css?action=history [03:50:10] I think it also didn't support site-wide images at the time, but the version on the dev wiki now does. [03:50:46] [1/3] tbh, I was aiming for a (non miraheze) mediawiki page called gbf.wiki of which I take extreme heavy inspiration from for my wiki in general as I've used gbf.wiki for close to 6 years now lol. [03:50:47] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426416714429763594/image.png?ex=68eb2596&is=68e9d416&hm=4e2333b87f314da1e9320ccbf74961abe338baba376466a1ae40e735368f0956& [03:50:47] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426416714798727268/image.png?ex=68eb2596&is=68e9d416&hm=38e0c72f452e07315802c5d18043f13110a2dcd39ac184833ed29656e00fd478& [03:51:07] strinova's method was the best possible solution given to me at the time [03:55:33] [1/2] You could sort of replicate it on vector legacy as well. https://strinova.org/wiki/Michele/gallery?useskin=vector [03:55:33] [2/2] You probably want to remove the transparent background, though. [04:01:34] by transparent background do you mean the translucency? [04:02:31] can you link other images from other wikis to use on different wikis? [04:18:23] the answer is yes i just misspelled something ๐Ÿ’” [05:20:26] Yeah. The original doesn't have it. I do think it looks cool, though it will usually require a lot more effort to work well. [05:38:01] It's strange though because gbf.wiki usesa translucent background on their 2010 vector skin [05:38:24] Although I guess they also use gadgets for everything which got deprecated on miraheze which could be a factor [05:38:24] Lol [05:41:43] Oh I see. It's only trasparent on the bottom of the page. A strange choice. [05:41:57] Gadgets are fine. Do you mean widget? [05:45:12] Yeah my bad [05:46:37] If you stare hard enough you can actually see the background even from the top [05:46:53] The opaqueness of the menus is just pretty high [07:51:19] Hi !! What are the timeframes for the approval of a wiki creation request? [07:55:53] There is an issue at the moment, halting the creation [07:56:06] rn a bit skewed, think of 1-3 days, there's was a bug w/automated reviews and is paused [07:56:06] Tech is notified. [07:57:13] We cannot approve wikis at the moment [07:57:49] Ok, thanks for your answers ๐Ÿ˜‰ [08:07:21] oof rip [08:39:40] Uh, there's some really weird CORS issues happening with my wiki right now for only a few random users, it's just blocking wikitide files for no reason(?) [09:04:11] are these users using vpn by a chance? [09:04:50] Ok, it goes a bit deeper, only his desktop is doing it, it's not CORS, it looks like he's getting rate limited(?) [09:04:51] i have to use vpn constantly now and cloudflare doesn't like it [09:05:21] on page refresh it flashes the miraheze logo with an exclamation mark and it asks for him to run the captcha [09:05:26] yeah, i have problem on laptop and tablet, phone is fine [09:05:51] and constant captchas for me too [09:06:16] He's from Belgium, unsure if that helps [09:06:26] Never ran into any problems like this with Miraheze [09:06:36] is he using vpn or proxy? [09:06:43] no vpn or proxy [09:07:08] :ThinkerMH: [09:07:25] i can only suggest making phorge task [09:29:16] happened to me once, it went away after about a day [14:27:41] Hi, may I ask how can I delete another userโ€™s comment? Someone posted a comment using an inappropriate username on my wiki and I want to delete it but I canโ€™t find out how to. Thanks [14:40:46] Depends which comment extension your using [14:41:29] <_lavendork_> [1/2] Hey can anyone help me figure out this error (bug?) First and last bracket keeps going outside the box. Can't use "
" because then it breaks the template in the visual editor

[14:41:41] 	  Should be commentstream
[14:42:03] 	  why do you need pre here?
[14:42:26] 	  are you trying to add a JSON file?
[14:42:29] 	 <_lavendork_> I don't. I tried to use it to see if it fixes the bracket error, but it doesn't
[14:43:07] 	 hi?
[14:43:24] 	 <_lavendork_, replying to ccxtwf> Yes, though I'm new to this and been using chatgpt for certain things. It worked to get the infobox, but I'm tryna get it to work in visual editor
[14:44:04] 	  On closer look, I can see you're trying to add [[mw:Extension:TemplateData]] information.
[14:44:05] 	  
[14:46:03] 	 <_lavendork_, replying to Wiki-Bot#2998> ah... I did not enable this. checking now, sorry
[14:46:23] 	  [1/9] Normally I'd put TemplateData definition on the template itself. For example:
[14:46:23] 	  [2/9] ```
[14:46:24] 	  [3/9] 
SOME TEMPLATE WIKICODE/div [14:46:24] [4/9] [14:46:24] [5/9] { [14:46:25] [6/9] the rest of the json [14:46:25] [7/9] } [14:46:25] [8/9] /templatedata [14:46:26] [9/9] ``` [14:46:45] So I wouldn't put TemplateData definition on a subpage anyway [14:48:05] ??? [14:48:36] Specifically, you're having a problem here because this current page is not registering what you're writing as JSON. JSON pages are automatically registered as such if you have `.json` at the end of the title. Otherwise, you needed to [change the content model to JSON](). [14:48:38] <_lavendork_, replying to ccxtwf> I think chatgpt gave me outdated info then lol [14:49:29] <_lavendork_, replying to ccxtwf> this makes sense. thanks [14:49:55] <_lavendork_> and yeah I'd much rather go the simpler route of putting it on the actual template page [14:59:31] <_lavendork_> It's still doing it. Could it be the skin breaking things somehow? [14:59:38] <_lavendork_> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426585041227485215/Screenshot_from_2025-10-11_10-59-15.png?ex=68ebc25a&is=68ea70da&hm=e99cf75fa2f97b956bed13cbb321fdc4a5707b1ce362ebb9ac357a7c800f55e8& [15:03:17] [1/20] I forgot something, you should be enclosing `` in ``, like so: [15:03:18] [2/20] ``` [15:03:18] [3/20]
SOME TEMPLATE WIKICODE/div [15:03:18] [4/20] [15:03:19] [5/20] SOME TEXT THAT DOCUMENTS YOUR TEMPLATE (OPTIONAL) [15:03:19] [6/20] [15:03:19] [7/20] { [15:03:19] [8/20] your TemplateData definition [15:03:20] [9/20] } [15:03:20] [10/20] /templatedata [15:03:20] [11/20] /noinclude [15:03:21] [12/20] ``` [15:03:21] [13/20] Some people definitely prefer to just put the documentation on a subpage, and transclude the documentation subpage on the actual template page, like so: [15:03:22] [14/20] ``` [15:03:22] [15/20]
SOME TEMPLATE WIKICODE/div [15:03:23] [16/20] [15:03:23] [17/20] [15:03:24] [18/20] {{Template page/doc}} [15:03:24] [19/20] /noinclude [15:03:25] [20/20] ``` [15:03:50] Check Special:Version to see if TemplateData is listed [15:03:55] yall question, how do i prove i am who i say, what proof do i need, asking cus my 2 factor locked me out on my pc. [15:04:11] and trying to send an email to tech support [15:04:20] what proof do i need? [15:08:59] <_lavendork_, replying to ccxtwf> Well now I'm getting an error code when I attempt to save it [15:09:29] <_lavendork_> I wish I could hop on stream rq but my internet speed is not good today [15:09:34] that's normal, TemplateData is very particular with the format of the JSON [15:10:21] you could make a thread on #support and link the page [15:10:26] ask your question, there's just another help discussion going on [15:10:39] or was [15:11:21] no need to drop a lone greeting to start conversation or asking [16:39:32] [1/3] Trying to properly set up this one infobox, but the width I think is slightly off, cuz this is how they look on wikipedia vs my wiki [16:39:32] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426610178534670436/image.png?ex=68ebd9c3&is=68ea8843&hm=fa80a7843f403f79c1390cb56c4554da90211978227053b0bf6abb4e499a4d7d& [16:39:32] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1426610179125940244/image.png?ex=68ebd9c3&is=68ea8843&hm=138ee7399409a7cb2e81a0a4f1402252972fa677b83eeb9a64ce564fc2a321df& [18:02:52] [1/3] Not looking at the template, but I think they use a {{nowrap}} on Wikipedia. [18:02:52] [2/3] ```{{nowrap|Succeeded by}}``` [18:02:53] [3/3] This makes sure that the word "by" doesn't get moved to the next line. [18:02:53] [18:23:12] Thanks ๐Ÿ™ [23:16:33] How would I add this into the template?
