[02:35:31] Hello. I'm hosting a mediawiki using vector, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how to change "@menu-background-color" from the vector file using css in Common.css [02:35:45] I can't find the id or class or anything for it in the source [02:36:04] You don't need to change that variable, exactly. [02:36:22] Do you have a link to your wiki? [02:37:13] Carmela: http://puzzlewiki.azurewebsites.net/wiki/Puzzles_Wiki [02:37:16] PM spamming, I think. [02:37:34] neochronomo: What do you want to change? [02:37:51] Carmela: the top area has 2 things that can be changed: the top color and the bottom color (which is a gradient) [02:38:05] Carmela: I don't know what to use in Common.css to refer to those [02:38:32] in the actual file in the vector folder i found it to be "@menu-background-color", but in css.... ? [02:39:15] neochronomo: Do you just want the puzzle background at the top? [02:40:02] Carmela: I was actually gonna have 2 colors, a light brown, and the bottom a darker brown gradient [02:40:21] #mw-page-base { styling goes here } [02:40:26] Carmela: i managed it by changing the actual vector file, but obviously that's not something you want to do cause of upgrading and such [02:40:27] For example: [02:40:37] #mw-page-base { background: inherit !important; } [02:40:51] That would make the whole background the puzzle background. [02:40:58] neochronomo: Quite. [02:41:11] Carmela: hmmm, I'll give that a try and see if I like it [02:41:12] If you right-click the browser window and select inspect element... [02:41:19] You can see the
[02:41:25] Carmela: yeah, I did that, but I couldn't find the specific elements [02:41:28] That's controlling the upper part of the window. [02:41:35] Carmela: interesting [02:41:45] So just click that div. [02:41:57] And then you'll see the styling in a window pane in your browesr. [02:41:59] browser [02:48:09] Carmela: I didn't think I'd like that but it actually looks good to me :) [02:48:40] :-) [02:54:41] Carmela: How come this won't change the background color behind the normal content? "#mw-body { background-color: #fbe7b5 !important; }" [02:55:05] Carmela: when I change it in the F12 editor it works, but it won't work in Common.css [09:24:20] is there some easy way to add whitespace to template definitions, without fubarring stuff [09:48:08] How can i integrate Bugzilla with my mediawiki site like it's done on this page. The "Tracked in Bugzilla" boxes on the right side. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Test_reports [09:52:20] Dahliz91: it's not integrated. It's just a template with a link and a status that's manually updated. [09:55:34] Dahliz91: you have to add bugzilla: interwiki prefix and to create a template (copy over its source from mw.org) [09:55:59] valhallasw`cloud: But how do I get something like that on my site. [09:56:29] Svetlana: Thx [09:57:50] https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?no_redirect=1&quicksearch=mediawiki [09:57:58] see above please [09:57:58] DARN IT INTERNET CAN YOU PLEASE WORK [09:57:58] :'-( [09:58:26] Svetlana: You mean copy this? http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Tracked [09:59:01] yes [10:00:22] Svetlana: :-) [10:02:31] Tuju: yes? [10:03:32] Nemo_bis: i'm having problem with image uploads, trying to figure out why it crashes my app. [10:03:42] i guess my application is using kipiplugins. [10:03:59] Too bad, I thought you were going to fix my bug included among those ;) [10:04:02] kipipluings support mediawiki, but i'm not sure why it crashes when i try to upload. [10:04:09] Nemo_bis: heh heh :) [10:04:28] Nemo_bis: but i'm waiting a visitor here so need to go. later.... [10:04:34] we have some recent uploads from kii [10:04:36] kipi [10:04:38] byebye [11:02:45] https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2014-August/043238.html is interesting question, maybe you know :) he/she wants to dispose of old pages so that they don't show in Special:MostLinkedPages or (if i get it right) Special:WhatLinksHere. the content should be still readable by other users (for historical purpose) [11:05:11] basile: do you have ideas how to make LST and Translate work together? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual_talk:Configuration_settings#Ideas_for_making_translatable [11:08:21] Svetlana: would be fun to test adding a namespace with negative ID [11:08:38] (probably things would explode) [11:08:45] Svetlana: the pollution of WhatLinksHere etc may be an issue, yes. It could be alleviated if there were an option to mark some namespaces as to not track links, categories, etc. That would also help (if needed) extensions like LQT [11:08:58] Nemo_bis: *maybe* doing the same thing as with templates works [11:09:45] Nemo_bis: but LST and templates is a mess, so it would help if you provide more specifically what you want to do (it's not clear to me from that page) [11:19:11] valhallasw`cloud: what's the same thing as with templates? [11:21:41] valhallasw`cloud: what I want to do is {{#lst:Manual:$wgReadOnly/en|summary}} , see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/manual:$wgReadOnly/en?action=edit [11:26:06] * Nemo_bis wants to block https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Project:Sandbox&diff=prev&oldid=1111896 for edit warring on sandbox [11:31:04] Nemo_bis: yeah, that's not possible [11:31:19]
tags can only be in the wikitext of the page you're #lst'ing [11:31:38] !bug 21339 [11:31:38] https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=21339 [11:31:58] Nemo_bis: ^ I brought wikisource down trying to fix it :-p [11:33:08] andre__: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21339 <-- how did that URL get in there? [11:33:18] valhallasw`cloud: that's not what I'm talking about [11:33:37] Nemo_bis: ? [11:33:49] which URL in what? [11:33:56] andre__: in the URL field on that bug [11:34:05] sorry, that wasn't really clear :-p [11:34:10] click "history", let's see [11:34:40] nothing listed, hence it was put there by the reporter when creating the ticket. I guess. [11:35:15] oh, that might actually be, as the reporter is reporting stuff on beverages [11:36:18] andre__: I was afraid there was a spambot or something like that, but I guess it's nothing then :-) [11:36:26] valhallasw`cloud: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension%3ALabeled_Section_Transclusion&diff=1111900&oldid=1084718 [11:37:14] (I know of 21339 of course, but this one was not documented) [11:37:38] Nemo_bis: err. Oh, it's somewhat different because the
tag /is/ in the wikitext now [11:37:50] Yep [11:37:52] Nemo_bis: but the templates get scrubbed before LST does it's job, I suppose [11:37:57] Looks so [11:38:05] Templates or parameters? Let's try [11:41:12] omgsocrazy [11:43:39] valhallasw`cloud: this didn't trick it :( https://www.mediawiki.org/?action=edit&oldid=1111905 [11:44:18] I found a solution to my earlier problem. If I put at start of lines, I can suppress end-of-line newlines [11:44:28] And therefore I can make rather more readable templates [11:44:34] kim_bruning: whitespace in template is supposed to be a solved problem of CS [11:44:48] AFAIK User:Patrick has discovered all that a human can do [11:44:55] (or non-human, for that matter) [11:46:01] Although the help pages' syntax is so crazy that the parser refuses to serve them in sensible time :) https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Newlines_and_spaces [11:46:24] Nemo_bis, yay CS, welcome to mediawiki ;-) [11:47:28] from your link: Spaces, tabs and newlines are preserved: at the start and end of the expanded wikitext of a template [11:48:31] so to fix that...
