Forum:Wikia errors

Dear Support,

Two issues:

1) The Hyperlink button on the WYSIWYG wikia editor doesn't seem to be working any more. I noticed it first on 24th July 2012. It has not been working since. I assumed it was a glitch from the updating of wiki versions, but i'm still having problems with it.

Symptoms:

a) If you try and edit an existing hyperlink: if you place the cursor anywhere in the link then click the button both fields are empty.

b) If you highlight the whole link and click the hyperlink button both fiels are empty.

c) If you place the cursor inside the link or highlight the link then right click the link and select the context sensitive menu "Edit Link", both the fields are empty.

2) This evening 23.00 GMT 27/07/2012, I am trying to view my talk page and other users talk pages. When I scroll down just above the page footers that display other notable wikias "Around wikias network" I get a browser Script error which locks up my computer. I have recreated this error on several pages:

http://yakuza.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Yimbocarimbo and

http://yakuza.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Shumote88

I am using Firefox 12.0 on a Windows 8 machine. The error message displayed:

Hope this helps you identify the issue.

Update:

I am now getting it on this page too! and



It doesn't matter if I scroll with the mouse or keyboard, as soon as it gets to the footers

I can see up to where the Category links would be, but it sticks there and won't allow me to scroll further down!

Not having problems on other websites and have not updated any software on my computer in the last hour since I've been having these scrolling problems. Looks like you have some errant scripting on your footers.

 * First of all, please stop using WYSIWYG. It's messing up links you are posting.


 * I'm not getting the errors you describe. I also use Firefox 12.0. -- 00:02, July 28, 2012 (UTC)
