Forum:Feature requests

This page contains an alphabetical list of feature requests. Below you see the reaction of one of the developers of the wikia team. Timbo(Talk)



C

 * Collapsible galleries
 * The option to let galleries expand/collapse (only show first row when collapsed). -- Light Daxter -  Talk  18:31, July 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * That is a brilliant idea! ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 18:43, July 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Already possible from what I've seen here - requires some CSS and JS. Collapsible tables are the same way - it's not really a feature, just something done with a few tweaks. --daNASCAT (Help Forum) (blog) 21:14, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * That requires a template and isn't really optimal though. -- Light Daxter -  Talk  21:24, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

G

 * Global contributions page
 * I think it'd be nice to let people see their contributions from all over Wikia on one special page, as well as keeping separate contributions pages on each wiki. --† DustKateb  (Talk to Me!)† 14:41, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * The code for this pretty much available, but the usage of the tool is restricted due to it apparently being resource heavy. Joey (talk) 05:50, July 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * GoogleAccount login support
 * GoogleAccounts are very popular, it is also a type of OpenID.

L

 * Alternate Logo for Monobook
 * You really can't make good logos that work for both Monaco and Monobook. It would be nice if you could upload a different logo for Monobook. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 9:56 PM PST 23 Jul 2010
 * Since you can use css to fill it in I don't think this would be very likely to come in soon. Joey (talk) 05:49, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

O

 * OpenID login support
 * I know that Facebook being used for logging in has already been added, but what about a way to sign in with numerous other types of accounts? (Like in the log in window, it would say Log in with your Wikia account then OR: Log in with OpenID and have many options for logging in that way. http://openid.net/ --† DustKateb  (Talk to Me!)† 04:32, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * OpenID is a lot more privacy friendly than Facebook and multiple social sites including google supports it -- 05:10, July 23, 2010 (UTC)

S

 * Sitenotice support in answers skin:
 * Currently MediaWiki:Sitenotice doesn't work in the answers skin and according to a Special:Contact reply, there are no near term plans to support it. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 3:29 PM PST 22 Jul 2010
 * That's a feature not a bug. Use  in MediaWiki:Common.css to get it back. Joey (talk) 22:51, July 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Funny how they couldn't tell me that in my Special:Contact reply and instead gave me some BS answer. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 10:13 AM PST 23 Jul 2010
 * Search in other languages:
 * When I type in 'SAP' in Wikia Search, I only see search results for the English Language. Is it possible to add search for different languages? Timbo 19:53, February 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Interesting.
 * I was thinking of asking for this yesterday but rejected my own idea shortly after.
 * I also think there should be a language checkbox on the global search page, but i dont know if Wikia tech can do this easy. — TulipVorlax 00:13, February 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Statistics: wikia provides statistics (special pages > statistics or wikia statistics; this functionality is rather limited; tried to set up Google Analytics, but wikia doesn't allow to use scripts on pages; the request is to either improve the wikia statistics or allow scripts on pages. --Timbo 14:32, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * It would be good if Wikia could provide graphs on activity, articles made per month etc. ☆ The   Solar   Dragon  ☆ 11:01, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * To use Google Analytics, you need to have Wikia install mediawikiwiki:Extension:Google Analytics Integration -- 18:34, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just wish I could see what country or part of the world visitors were from and what screen resolution they're using. That would help with so many site layout discussions. Duskey ( talk ) 19:05, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
