Hello Wikia, I am trying to code many things on my wiki, the Spider-Man Wiki and I am have some trouble and see a bug or two. For example, at the Fusion Fall Wiki and Marvel Heroes Wiki. You see how they coded a different icon for their Message Wall at the top right of the wiki? Well, I coded that, and for some reason, you can only see it in Internet Explorer and no other browser. Weird. Bug? Other thing, some things I coded, have been seen, but I have changed but they have showed up, and then I do not see them anymore.

For example, when I coded a message above chat, like the Fusion Fall Wiki does, because here, we would like users to have 10 edits to enter chat and we want them to see that before entering at least. Whenever I code it, and try to change it, it goes away. I also coded a clock on top of the wiki. Why has not that appeared?

Also, in my chat there is a message on top. I wanted to change that, and I did according to the MediaWiki page it is on to change the message. The message won't change. I also changed the button to say "Clear all replies" instead of "Clear chat" I see it change in the preview but it won't show up in  actual chat. Odd right? Why won't it change? Also, I wanted the avatar on the top right to be rounded and colored red. Like the Fusion Fall and Marvel Heroes Wiki. It was that way for a while, but that changed and went away as well.

The hot spot too. The wanted them to be rounded and cut off, once again, like the Fusion Fall and Marvel Heroes wiki have it. I like that. It was like that. I saw it, but it went away. I also had more options for the drop down menu like the Ben 10 Wiki, those went away too. Also the copyright board that the Ben 10 Wiki has, I had it coded and saw it here. Gone too. I also tried to changed the stars from the newly coded sliver to gold stars I uploaded to the wiki. I do not know why some things are showing up and some are not.

The only thing I see wrong is that something is wrong with our code here. I am not an expert on coding, and I even had an expert coder look at what may be wrong. TheWWC, he fixed the chat and made it better, but I can't mod it, such as the message at all.

My only idea is that there is too much coding mixed up on the wiki and the wiki may be only choosing some code to code and some not to, or maybe some stuff just is not coded correctly. Is there too much code all together? Maybe the coding is bugged. I never said coding and code so much in my life.

Anyhow, I wanted to know if anyone can fix this. Not change and REMOVE all the code, more or less get someone to fix this, because none of here can code very well on the Spider-Man Wiki staff. I know it seems lazy of me to just ask some to fix MY mess and I am sorry for that. I just don't know why this is happening. TheWWC suggested that some code may be messed up, and as a result the code under it won't work. I have no idea why any of this is happening. Just asking for someone to debug this code, re-work it or point me to someone that can help this wiki. I know the wiki is not that popular, but I at least want it to look nice for incoming editors.

I mean, we are a wiki about Spider-Man Wiki, someday we'll be up there. But for now this coding problem is bugging me, no pun meant by that. We have been looking for a coder for a long while, and I think I have a great idea of how I want this wiki to look. Problem is, coding is hard. If someone could help us, that would be great.

I already contacted wikia about this, but I need this fixed ASAP. If wikia contacts us, then still thank you to anyone that looked into it, but if any official coder wants to be the Spider-Man Wiki's official coder, come on by.
