Forum:Interwiki template link

Whenever I use  I get a Template fetch failed error.

Anyway to get around this? (Instead of manually adding the template on every Wiki). p.s. While I'm here anyway, whats the .css code you need to change the color of the bottom bar whenever you are editing? The one with the Summary bar and Save page / Preview. -- Light Daxter |  Talk  23:15, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Still gives me the error, and I'd like to use the subst: code bit. -- Light Daxter |  Talk  13:43, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

Any help please ;-; -- Light Daxter |  Talk  12:24, March 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * You need to give more info. What wiki are you trying to use this template on? Also, templates tend not to work across wikis, if that's what you're trying to do. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 5:34 AM PST 3 Apr 2010

I won't be using this for a specific wiki, that code up there is meant to be put in MyPreferences (under Signature). -- Light Daxter |  Talk  10:37, April 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * What you're trying to do is unfortunately impossible at the moment. There is a javascript workaround of sorts - you can make an button in your edit bar that creates all the code in your sig followed by five tildes, which produces just the time stamp, e.g. . Javascript example (courtesy of the great Grunny):

mwCustomEditButtons[mwCustomEditButtons.length] = { "imageFile": "http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/central/images/d/d1/Button_mysignature.png?1", "speedTip": "Alt sig", "tagOpen": "Example ", "tagClose": "", "sampleText": ""};
 * As for the bar at the bottom of the edit page, the selector is "#edit_enhancements_toolbar". Or you can use ".accent", but that will change other stuff around the wiki as well. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  11:07, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Wow, it works (both the javascript code as the .css code). Really great guys! Light Daxter |  Talk   Light Daxter  |  Talk  15:21, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Wait, scratch that. My signature code works fine, but of course I'd want to include the time and all, so I include five tildes, but it instantly reverts to the time in the global.js page I use. Is there anyway to get around this? And is there also a way to force it insert this piece of code  instead of using the subst: parameter on the global.js page? -- Light Daxter |  Talk  15:34, April 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh sorry - you need to add stuff at the start and at the end so that templates etc. don't just subst themselves. See User:The 888th Avatar/global.js for an example. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  22:48, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
