Forum:Common.js

I just noticed that MediaWiki:Common.js has no effect on any of the codes. Anyone else notice? Anyone feel like doing anything to get it back? Me? I don't really mind about it. Bermuda  Contact Me!  22:55, June 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * I believe Moncho came up with a fix for that in his css/js blog.--

 * The import for Common.css? Hmm.... This just happened today. Common.js has always been working fine.


 * We seem to be experiencing the same problem. Anything I do tonight to MediaWiki:Common.js seems to be of no effect to the Oasis skin (functions okay for the Monobook skin). I even tried importing MediaWiki:Common.js into MediaWiki:Wikia.js with the following, to no effect:

 // Importing MediaWiki:Common.js

importScriptURI('http://admintools.wikia.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.js'    + '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

// END Importing MediaWiki:Common.js
 * Any ideas? Thanks! — Spike Toronto  12:51AM EDT, June 7, 2011

 * Another thing I noticed is that logged-in users don't see anything. The opposite seems to be for logged-out users; they see the stuffs. Hmm...
 * Make sure you have no syntax errors. Some syntax errors, like extra or missing brackets, will cause some browsers to completely discard a file. Furthermore,  can cause cascading failure if a function at the beginning of a file is throws an error.

I sent this to Special:Contact yesterday. They seem to be working on it. ^.^ Hopefully fixed soon enough and that they too are seeing this problem, not just some people... Bermuda  Contact Me!  18:59, June 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the update Bermuda. Thanks also for your input Monchoman45. — Spike Toronto  6:38PM EDT, June 7, 2011


 *  UPDATE : I added the template at the top of this page to ask that a Wikia Staffer update us on the progress/status of this issue. Thanks! — Spike <font color="#000000" face="Garamond" size="3">Toronto  12:24AM EDT, June 10, 2011


 * Any updates from Wikia Staff about how this is progressing? Thanks! — <font color="#DC143C" face="Garamond" size="3">Spike <font color="#000000" face="Garamond" size="3">Toronto  2:38AM EDT, June 13, 2011

In general testing, we're not seeing any problems with Common.js loading of Oasis at all. Do you have specific examples (as in wikis) where its not? Have you checked your code to make sure it has no errors? One of the biggest reasons to use Special:Contact (ON YOUR WIKI) to report this, is that it gives us the 2 most important pieces of information we need WHAT WIKI, and WHAT BROWSER ARE YOU USING. --Uberfuzzy 07:51, June 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * But, if everything had been working perfectly, and nothing had changed on one’s wiki — no MediaWiki files had been changed; no personal "<tt>.css</tt>" and "<tt>.js</tt>" files had been altered; <tt>global.js</tt> remains unchanged; same browser; etc.; — and the “event” is occurring across wikis, then ceteris paribus (all things remaining unchanged), it stands to reason that it’s a Wikia-wide issue. Hence, why we came to the forum. In any event, on our wiki, it seems to be affecting anyone and everyone using the Oasis skin. I do not know if there is any difference depending on one’s browser.

 * P.S. If one reads a little higher on this page, one can see that Bermuda already used Special:Contact on his wiki to enquire about the issue. He was told that the problem went beyond his wiki (his report is above). He has also written again as follow-up. Still nothing.
