Forum:I think my Wiki is suffering from the MediaWiki upgrade

Look at Long Sword (weapon) from the Golden Sun Wiki (in monobook, at least). How do I fix these templates so they are adjusted to the right? --Thenewguy34( Other ) 11:17, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * It looks like the wrapper of class "WikiaArticle" is missing. That's why this rule no longer has an effect:


 * You should report this to Special:Contact. The Wikia people will probably want to fix this. For the time being you can fix this yourself by modifying the rule a little bit and adding it to your w:c:GoldenSun:MediaWiki:Wikia.css:


 * EDIT: Oops. I meant w:c:GoldenSun:MediaWiki:Monobook.css of course ;) --

The monobook on Wiki 24 has gone all wrong as well after this upgrade. The background colour has gone completely white, so we have white text on white background: is there something in the mediawiki page that is now deprecated? Thanks!-- Category:Acer4666 12:55, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * I just sent the problem to Special:Contact for the Golden Sun Wiki. As for Wiki 24, I hope your question gets solved. --Thenewguy34( Other ) 13:33, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * For Monobook, use  instead of , and   instead of  , etc. --··· d·day! 13:45, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * http://24.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Monobook.css?action=raw does not load. Apparently a lot of wikis have exactly the same problem after the update. Staff might be aware of the problem, but you should still contact them. --
 * I fixed most of my css problems with an !important but yeah, the upgrade broke a lot of stuff. I'm mostly concerned with how the upgrade seems to have broken a large portion of my personal js--


 * Are you sure the JS even loads? --
 * Yes, I am positive that it loads. The AjaxRC tick box appears and my chat is formatted like IRC as defined by User:Godisme/Chat.css. My fast delete buttons also appear. However, the buttons do nothing, Ajax RC sometimes appears, sometimes doesnt and even when it does appear, its not a guarentee that it will actually do what it is supposed to do. Even when I load js with the console, it isn't working.--


 * Then your problem is probably similar or even the same as Thenewguy34's. Some jQuery selector or another comes back empty because the class or id it relies on, no longer exists. That's only an educated guess though. You should report this to the writers of those scripts! They should be able to tell you more. --


 * Ajax RC code for the Fallout wiki has been updated for MediaWiki 1.19, if anyone wants to use this one in the meantime. --··· d·day! 17:33, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

@Godisme: Can you disable AjaxRC for a while, so I can test it myself? Oh, and you where talking about the Bleach wiki, right? -- --


 * The bulk of my problems take place on w:c:bleach.answers--


 * I've tested AjaxRC for about an hour now on your wiki. I only tested from the console, but that should not make any difference. Everything works fine from the looks of it. It seems however that Wikia's servers fail to respond to the requests for updates rather frequently. That's consistent with the abysmal response times and outright failures I've seen all day long. Does that describe your problem? Or is there another issue? --
 * Thats how it is on Bleach Wiki but on Bleach answers, the tick box does not even appear.--


 * Hm. I just created w:c:bleach.answers:User:Pecoes/wikia.js‎ and it works fine for me. How and where do you load AjaxRC? --
 * Its loaded from my global js--

That could be a Reference Error. You pass CustomRollbacks as a parameter to AjaxRC before actually declaring it. --


 * Can we go back to the "wrapper" discussion for a moment please? I don't see that the WikiaContent div had a wrapper in 1.16? Godisme et al, can you give me the exact class name you think is missing? --daNASCAT 19:39, July 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * That "wrapper" thing was a wild guess of mine and a wrong one at that. It does not look like Thenewguy34's problem had anything to do with the upgrade after all. The same is true for Godisme - albeit in a different way. He had a bunch of unrelated errors in his global.js which caused AjaxRC to fail. I'm still waiting for his confirmation, but it very much looks as if that was the problem... --
