compare.js
User:Quarenon/compare.js - Can you fix this so it ignores comments in the template, on the page? This happens otherwise. 16:34, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Hellup
Zeg, jij bent hier een beetje de template-expert (schijnt "sjabloon" of zoiets te zijn, wat een belachelijk woord), nietwaar? Kun je me misschien helpen met een (hopelijk simpele) code voor mijn sig? Ik wil de 'My Gallery' onder 'Talk' krijgen. 'elp me plawks. 07:27, August 14, 2012 (UTC)

Template:Statbox
If you're going to convert my Statbox template to CSS, that's nice, however don't change the margins or any values I have set. The template doesn't look like it did before. Please don't change the numbers I've spent hours trying to get right... 06:05, August 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * I see how your css is far more efficient but the new margins really bugs me as I had it perfect. Please refer to my revision and work off of that. I don't have time to tinker with your CSS, but I have corrected just a few things for  which is...   08:39, August 15, 2012 (UTC)

Hi Joeytje50,

I was wondering if you could help me get used to editing on the wiki, I have set up a photobucket account and added some pictures to it, but I'm not sure how to add them to the wiki or set as my profile picture. There only seems to be an option to upload from my photo gallery instead of an external hosting site.

Many thanks

Your Chat Logger
Hello,

I'm the moderator at Creepypasta that you talked to the other day.

I followed the instructions and have loaded the bot's wikia.js with your code provided on the community page.

http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/User:RobotofMadness/wikia.js

None of the scripts are running on our wikia. If you could, would you help us out on how to run it properly?

Thank you ^_^

Embedding javascript onto wiki pages
Hi Joey,

I am an admin on a different wiki and Ronan directed me to you with my questions about embedding code onto wiki pages. I'm a programmer and have the javascript part figured out, but what I can't understand is how to convince a specific wikia page to use my code.

Researching online tells me that it has something to do with MediaWiki, which I've been messing with, but I'm having a lot of trouble. I tried following instructions that I found online, including a bunch of documentation on wikia pages for users with similar questions, but I'm obviously missing a few key steps somewhere. This is what I've attempted:


 * Made a MediaWiki page with the javascript and HTML on it and tried to display that on another page using verbatim tags, but it seems that only the HTML part worked. My dropdown menu list initializations aren't getting data from my arrays, the button onclick isn't linked to any functions, etc...


 * Edited MediaWiki:Common.js with the javascript and added a document.getElementById check for the breeding calculator id on the page. If it does, set that node's innerHTML to the HTML portion of the breeding calculator and perform the required onload function steps, etc.


 * For whatever reason the element declaration wouldn't stick if I did a &lt;div id = "elementname" ... etc. on the page within the verbatim tags, so I tried leaving the javascript in MediaWiki:Common.js and then editing the MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator.js page to just include the div id call. Then I went back to the page I want to display it and did a verbatim tag on that MediaWiki page and did not get the results I wanted.

I've been searching online for pretty much the whole day and run out of things to try. =/ Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Oh, and P.S., the cake is a lie.

Thank you for the response!

I've posted the same questions for Ryan - I'm hoping to get your perspective as well. You mentioned onload event stuff and I'm getting some behavior that I do not understand, so I was wondering if it had anything to do with load order etc.

I managed to get the script to load onto the desired page:

http://dragon-story.wikia.com/wiki/Breeding_Calculator

The code is living on this page:

http://dragon-story.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator.js

I've been playing with it trying to get it to work right, and I've run into several problems.

1) Severe variable scoping problems, but when I looked more closely at the changes that you made to the code and modified my code accordingly, the scope issues were resolved. I don't understand why the dragon_names array has to be a non-global variable inside the setMenuOptions function, whereas the other stuff can live all the way at the bottom out in the ether. All I know is that if I don't put it where you put it, setMenuOptions won't be able to find it and considers it undefined. Is it a race condition issue, in which case I should think about moving my other global variables to account for slow computers, or is it something else obvious that I'm just missing?

2) setMenuOptions did not want to recognize the form elements that were appended after the DSBreedingCalculator element by the javascript. (Couldn't find any additional info in my error log either. Just nothing happened.) Anyway, I attempted to work around this by creating a new MediaWiki page hosting the desired elements, then use the verbatim tag after the DSBreedingCalculator element on the other page. This seems to have allowed the js to find the elements.

3) Obviously I don't want these verbatim elements to show up until all the onload stuff has been handled, so I tried stuff like style="visibility:hidden"; and disabled for the button, but I must be doing something wrong because I can see all the elements. I tried type="hidden" for the form but nothing seemed to happen either. You can find those elements here:

http://dragon-story.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator

4) This one is more of an "I need to play with this later because I'm out of time now", but I figured I'd get opinions to check if I have the right idea. Now that the script is working for the most part, I can tell that inserting those brackets for the auto wikia links into the innerHTML will not work. So I'm guessing that I will have to replace that by using a href="my wikia page path to dragon" + dragon name for the link bit and img src = "my wikia page path to image" + image name for the image bit.

Argh, ok. I seem to have some browser caching issues, or something. I've tried using Ctrl + F5 and Ctrl + Shift + R (Firefox) and the page seems to reload, and I even went to Tools -> Options and deleted cache there, but it seems like anything on my MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator page (the one with the form) isn't being reloaded. I can see an old version of it in the Page Source on the wiki page where I want to display the breeding calculator.

I had copied Ryan's example to the MediaWiki:Wikia.js page and entered this:

$(document).ready(function {   if ( wgTitle == 'Breeding Calculator' )   {     importScript('MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator.js');   } });

This is what is in the MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator page (sans the periods, which are there to let you see invisible stuff)

http://dragon-story.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:BreedingCalculator

 





This is what is in the page source on the visible wiki page, after I've attempted all sorts of cache clearing:

http://dragon-story.wikia.com/wiki/Breeding_Calculator

  

I even had an issue where my button disappeared from view suddenly (it must've been from when I tried setting button to invisible / disabled, and it finally went through like half an hour later, after I'd deleted that... Then I reverted the edit and posted the exact same change that vanished the button and the button was magically there.

So, something wrong with the way I'm clearing my cache? Stuff isn't updating right.

Sylvandyr (talk) 19:10, August 19, 2012 (UTC)

The fix that Ryan suggested for the caching issue worked. Just wanted to thank you for helping me off my feet. You've both been awesome :)

RE:Animations
I know I'm not Fswe1, but I thought I'd reply anyway... He didn't use the Orb of Oculus, the animation is from a cutscene, so he can't change the camera angle. 15:22, August 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * ^That. But, what I don't get; we have animations larger (in terms of dimensional size) than that, yet their file size is smaller. Is my quality too good or something? 15:49, August 19, 2012 (UTC)

Image request...
The Spade article could definitely benefit from an image of the spade's digging animation. Also, if you have time, could you please take a replacement image for File:Customs officer uniform.png? Thanks, and have a nice day. 21:35, August 20, 2012 (UTC)
