Bugs
Chathacks isn't working well. It always says "You have connected from another browser" whenever I try to use it. Please fix it ASAP. Thanks. u&#592;&#653;o&#633; 21:44, April 11, 2013 (UTC)

Whenever I don't want to be pinged, I try clearing out the ping list. And then I get pinged with every message. DarkBowser100 20:54, May 3, 2013 (UTC)

Chathacks Suggestions and help
*Please reply to the following via my talk page.I had a few suggestions for chathacks. --Superdadsuper (talk) 00:01, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) Is it possible for you to create a variable for the chat mod stars and staff symbols? What I am saying by this is, I think you should make it to where the chat uses the symbol next to their name with the wikis mod symbol instead of the default one. #Also Multi PM does not work for me using this feature.Thanks

Hey moncjo I don't really know how to use thes but I was nt the one that made you ban me. My computer is really vulnerable, and my Facebook has already been hacked. Feel free not to believe me but it wasn't me that wrote that message or whatever it --Sowhatsyournameagain? (talk) 18:12, December 22, 2012 (UTC)was that caused you to ban me.

Chat hacks, chatmod icon
Hi, I've seen that the chat hacks place a chat mod icon next to the username of the chat mods of that chat. But they don't seem to appear on my Wiki's chat (KnB Wiki), it's an empty file. Is there a way to upload the file? 18:38, December 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * That was fixed in this revision a month ago. It's possible your cache hasn't been updated since, I would clear it and see if the problem persists.

Chat Features for APW
Hey, I am the founder of Anything Pirates Wiki, and I was wondering if you could help me out with a couple things.

1.Get a chatmod icon, a gold coin with a black m on it, i can make the pic.

2. Put on chat hacks and etc.

3. Help me enabled the emoticons, the coding i got from the website is in the page, but it came up as links.

Thanks for your time! Please respond soon with an answer!

 * I'm not familiar with the standard way of accomplishing that. You can ask an admin at the Call of Duty wiki, they've changed their mod icons and also can help with number 2 (which you'll probably need for this anyway).
 * You'll want to copy the code from MediaWiki:Chat-welcome-message to the page with the same name on your wiki. You don't have to copy their actual welcome message, just the stuff after the . Then copy everything from MediaWiki:Chat.js/load.js to the same page on your wiki. With that, you can put chat stuff in MediaWiki:Chat.js and it'll load for everyone. I suggest copying CoD wiki's options.js. You can either put that directly into MediaWiki:Chat.js, or put it in MediaWiki:Chat.js/options.js and just put   in MediaWiki:Chat.js. That'll let you use chat hacks, and a bunch of other things you might want.
 * The code you got was HTML. MediaWiki:Emoticons doesn't work that way, it just needs the url of the image (for example, for the first one on the page, you want just  instead of  ). If you replace all of those, they should work normally.

Coding
Hello, I am an Administrator from the Fairy Tail Wiki and I was wondering if you could possibly lend me some assistance? Is there any sort of CSS or JS coding that I could use to hide the "Discussion about XXX" section that appears at the bottom of articles when you enable the new forum feature. My wiki is considering using the feature, but we don't want to if we have to have those at the bottom of the page.


 * CSS


 * 1) . Do note, however, that using that wiki-wide could be a ToU violation. As far as I know hiding read more is not (or at least it wasn't the last time staff said anything about it, which was a very long time ago), and this is essentially the same thing, but for forums. So basically, if you're allowed to, that's how you would do it, but I have no idea whether or not you're allowed to.


 * Thanks so much!!! For now, for the sake of getting what I want, I'll just assume it isn't a ToU violation. >_>


 * To clarify, staff have said this code is not permitted to be used wiki wide. See 1 and 2.

Parse Error in ChatHacks.js
I just tried your ChatHacks for the first time. Except I haven't. There's a parse error that prevents the code from loading:

"Error: JavaScript parse error: Parse error: Unexpected token; token 3 expected in file 'User:Monchoman45/ChatHacks.js' on line 320"

(copypasted from Firebug)

My guess is it's because you use "default" as a property name. That's a reserved word.

Besides: Do you really have to use eval? --


 * *sigh* I think I've found the source of the problem: ChatHacks.js doesn't load because NoScript doesn't permit attaching scripts from an external window. I created a new FF profile without NoScript and could load ChatHacks.js without problems. --


 * This appears to work for me (even with NoScript enabled):


 * Unfortunately I have no theory why this works while everything else failed :( --


 * May I ask two questions about your code?


 * Why do you test for objects in the while-loop of Preparse. window.commands doesn't contain any objects. So where are they? Where do they come from?


 * As far as I understand your code, it consists of not one but two scripts. The first and shorter one opens the chat window and then loads the larger one that contains the actual chat-hacks. So why are these two scripts in the same file? And why does the loader part of your script load the entire global.js and the entire wikia.js instead of ChatHacks.js only? --


 * Objects serve as subdirectories. It's a better way to manage a set of related commands, without having to use a single function that is essentially a switch. There aren't any natively, but if someone wanted to expand it to include, say, commands for managing a log, they could do that.
 * I could split it into two files, but there's not really any point. It wouldn't necessarily break anything, but I wouldn't gain anything either.
 * Importing personal code pages allows people to use other scripts as well. If it didn't import /global.js or /wikia.js, people wouldn't be able to use Joey's multi PMs script.


 * Loading a large script of which 95% aren't needed on pages other than Special:Chat is wasteful. I'd split the script if I were you.


 * Loading the entire global.js and wikia.js on Special:Chat is also wasteful. If I were to write everything from scratch I'd offer a way for other scripts to subscribe instead. But I see your point about Joey's PM script. Changing anything about this is probably not an option anymore.


 * Do I understand you correctly, that you don't currently use these subdirectory objects in the while loop of Prepare? Does anybody? If not, you could simplify the whole thing substantially.


 * How about declaring all those aliases from the window.commmands object separately:


 * Then you could reduce Preparse quite dramatically:


 * And those odd "default" prorties and eval would be gone... :P


 * Loading a large script of which 95% aren't needed on pages other than Special:Chat is wasteful.
 * Consider that the parsing time for the 95% that isn't used is a millisecond or two, and that the bandwidth used accounts for a fraction of a percent of your internet usage. If the code pages were split, over several decades, each person using them could potentially save a penny on their electric bill and possibly enough time to blink. The same concept applies to minify (and is why I don't like it); people think it's a great way to speed up their websites and save people bandwidth. The truth is that the speed difference is insignificant and your browser cache is several orders of magnitude more influential on your bandwidth consumption. Coupled with a server side cache, minify can save a considerable amount of money for large websites with many thousands of unique views; when you have to handle several million requests every day, your fractions of a penny add up very quickly. This actually applies to virtually everything regarding large websites, down to something as basic as putting a cost on a single processor cycle. On the scale of your laptop, however, the time it would take you to figure out whether or not it's worth it would likely put you in a hole that an optimized solution would not be able to climb out of in several of your lifetimes.
 * Loading the entire global.js and wikia.js on Special:Chat is also wasteful. If I were to write everything from scratch I'd offer a way for other scripts to subscribe instead.
 * Setting aside the above, this is true. However, this boils down to a human factors issue - the vast majority of people on Wikia know nothing about code. Most probably can't tell the difference between CSS, JS, and HTML, or know what any of them stand for. Simplicity is everything, the more things there are to consider, the harder it is for people who know nothing to pick it up. Not to mention that introducing a larger load order complexity is always, always, always a bad idea.
 * Do I understand you correctly, that you don't currently use these subdirectory objects in the while loop of Prepare? Does anybody?
 * There are no subdirectories by default, no, and to my knowledge no one implements any extension to chat hacks. Part of the point of chat hacks was, however, to be extensible. Wikia's chat client is not very well designed to be friendly to code (I did propose a set of changes to help alleviate that problem, but Wikia doesn't take those kinds of suggestions), and by taking a few liberties (like overwriting functions), I could make it extensible myself for anyone who wanted to do something later. Unfortunately, writing scripts for Wikia is a bit of a niche market right now. As far as coding practice, however, extensibility is among the more important aspects of code, even more so in JS, and comes at a fairly low cost. Frequently you can even reap the benefits yourself later, I find that if I keep extensibility in mind when I write code, I'm more likely to produce a much better code structure, which makes it easier to make changes to later, even if you don't use the extensible interface you designed. (Torus is a much better example of that than chat hacks)


 * Those should answer the rest of your message - per your code, regex and jQuery are two things I purposefully avoid at every opportunity. In particular, regex quickly produces unreadable code and fails to scale up to more complex parsing jobs. jQuery encourages bad coding practices, is horrendously inefficient, and is never actually necessary. A great example is a basic class selector like . Consider the work that jQuery needs to do in order to correctly give you what you want - first it must parse   (probably with regex). Generally this takes very little time, however with the frequency that people use jQuery you could potentially be calling this parsing operation several thousand times per day, and not always on simple strings like  . Then it has to get every single element on the page - yes, every single one - and sift through them to get all the ones with the class  . That in itself requires jQuery to split every class name by spaces and iterate through the resulting array to see if   is there. Further consider that this is repeated if you do  . In reality, in 99% of the cases where you would normally do this, you could instead put an id on a parent element and use a selector like   to return the exact same list of elements. If you drop the jQuery and use , your code will be upwards of million times faster. Do note that this does not generally apply to Wikia, because these kinds of changes have to be made to the HTML you're working on - essentially, on Wikia's end. Thus, on Wikia (and unfortunately, most websites), you may be forced into using a class selector, or a complicated chain of specifically positioned elements. For HTML you write, however, you can avoid using class selectors completely, and bask in the glorious benefit. Classes were designed for CSS, jQuery got people used to using them for element identification - and that is a bad coding practice.
 * Chat hacks in general needs an update. I wrote it when I didn't know much about what I was doing (I might have thought I did, though). The use of, for example, was a terrible decision (and was also implemented wrong). If you can find   in Torus, you'll see it instead keeps a reference to the directory it is at and performs all operations relatively instead of absolutely. So far I haven't had any stupid problems with it - and that's really all I can ask for, so I consider it a success. One day when I have the time, I'll rewrite chat hacks from the bottom up, and it won't be so bad anymore.

Judging by the length of your reply, I seem to have implied that I doubt your coding skills :) I certainly don't. You're a much more well-respected coder in these parts than I am and surely with good reason. Compared to you, I'm still a MediaWiki/Wikia noob :)

It doesn't seem to me that coding addons for Wikia is a niche though. From what I've seen in the few months that I've been here, I'd say there's a small but very prolific community of coders at dev. Which btw I think you should join! Building library functionality into your addon is all well and good, but if you don't document that functionality anywhere then you've only built it for yourself. Dev would be a perfect place to show how to extend ChatHacks. It wouldn't hurt to write up some end-user documentation either ;)

I somewhat agree on your critique of jQuery. When I started to script for MediaWiki/Wikia, I used jQuery for the first time. Now - a few months later - the sensation of the new has worn off a little and I see it more critical. It's perfectly reasonable to use document.getElementById if you want to do something really simple - like testing whether some element is on a page or not. It's also true that people tend to use jQuery selectors a bit carelessly. They really shouldn't contain much more than a single ID or class. Stuff like $('#WikiHeader > nav > ul > li:first') is really bad and should be replaced.

Your critique of regexes is a bit over the top though. The fact that you cannot build language-level parsers with (the current incarnation of) regular expressions doesn't mean they're unsuitable for simple stuff either. And readability is only a concern if you're not used to regular expressions.

I still think that splitting the script in two - and yes minifying it - would be beneficial. Simply because it can be done completely transparent for the end-users and would require no action on their part.

Seeing that there are so many users of ChatHacks.js out there, it's impossible to do something about the blanket including of everything in the wikia.js and the global.js. You might want to use the ResourceLoader though. That would save one file request. Reducing the amount of file requests is always beneficial. It's more beneficial than minifying, more beneficial than optimizing your selectors and more beneficial than any other kind of optimization. --


 * Judging by the length of your reply, I seem to have implied that I doubt your coding skills :)
 * Not at all - the science part of computer science just takes more words to explain.
 * I still think that splitting the script in two - and yes minifying it - would be beneficial. Simply because it can be done completely transparent for the end-users and would require no action on their part.
 * There's no reason. Splitting the script in two wouldn't change the number of file requests, and as already discussed, the length is insignificant. Minify is a server-side optimization only and has virtually no effect on the end user, other than making it more difficult to report an error in console. All change carries with it the potential for error, and with no benefit for anyone, this simply isn't worth it.
 * You might want to use the ResourceLoader though. That would save one file request. Reducing the amount of file requests is always beneficial.
 * This is true (most of the time). However, a large problem with resource loader is that if you combine many files and one of them throws an error, execution of other files can be skipped. I haven't had any JS on central for several months because of this. More to the point, saving one file load doesn't produce gains as big as you would expect - your browser cache and threading both take care of most of the overhead already.

About right sidebar
Well hi there. I've just hed googled a few discuion pages about hiding the right sidebar with your scripts, however, it seems that hiding it violates some blah-blah rights or something, well, i wouldnt wonder if i gonna my wikia deleted due to removing this ugly rail.

So... did the situation changed somehow or its still a taboo?


 * You can only remove it for yourself, using a personal file - you can't remove it for everyone on your wiki, that violates the ToU.

Making my Bot speak with a script...
Would it be possible to edit/reconfigure the Chat Hacks code to allow the Bot I have to respond to questions directed at it? Thanks. Master Ceadeus  16:59, December 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * This is a complicated request - you can catch questions that follow a certain format, but responding intelligently is essentially impossible. Watson, the computer that plays Jeopardy, accomplished this feat - however, Watson is a supercomputer housed in a walk-in fridge. The best you'll be able to do is have the bot catch specific keywords, and possibly the presence of a question mark, and return a page link. You'd have to piece all of those connections together yourself, however, and you would likely end up with hundreds of false positives and hundreds more false negatives. All in all, the best solution is just to have more people in chat to answer questions.

New Infoboxes
How on a new Wiki of yours (i.e. mine) do you create Infoboxes for things? HiddenVale 05:08, February 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Generally, you use the basic infobox template and give it some fixed parameters. For example, if you wanted a character infobox, you might have:




 * Which you could then use as:




 * That's the easiest way to do it - if you're very familiar with wikitext and HTML, you can create more powerful infoboxes by not using the basic template.

Images
Hi! I was wondering if you could help me with images. What I was thinking is making the images expand when hovering over them. This is also been used on the as when hovering over the links to other wikis they expand. I was wondering if you could help me. -- GorillaMan


 * Do you mean like on Wikia's home page where when you hover over an image, it grows larger?

Yes thats what I meant im trying to add: .hovergallery img{ -webkit-transform:scale(0.8); /*Webkit: Scale down image to 0.8x original size*/ -moz-transform:scale(0.8); /*Mozilla scale version*/ -o-transform:scale(0.8); /*Opera scale version*/ -webkit-transition-duration: 0.5s; /*Webkit: Animation duration*/ -moz-transition-duration: 0.5s; /*Mozilla duration version*/ -o-transition-duration: 0.5s; /*Opera duration version*/ opacity: 0.7; /*initial opacity of images*/ margin: 0 10px 5px 0; /*margin between images*/ }

.hovergallery img:hover{ -webkit-transform:scale(1.1); /*Webkit: Scale up image to 1.2x original size*/ -moz-transform:scale(1.1); /*Mozilla scale version*/ -o-transform:scale(1.1); /*Opera scale version*/ box-shadow:0px 0px 30px gray; /*CSS3 shadow: 30px blurred shadow all around image*/ -webkit-box-shadow:0px 0px 30px gray; /*Safari shadow version*/ -moz-box-shadow:0px 0px 30px gray; /*Mozilla shadow version*/ opacity: 1; } This code I want to add hoever I dont know how to add CSS to a certain file. I tried it with <div class="hovergallery" but noting seems to work.

--GorillaMan


 * Hi - please leave this message at the bottom of my talk page, new messages go at the bottom of talk pages. Per your code, you can add that CSS to MediaWiki:Wikia.css on your wiki, then your  will work if you put a   at the end of the opening tag.


 * Sorry I didn't know how to per the code and I thought since it was a new message it could go up to the top again. Won't happen again I prommise. Thanks for your help it work now :) --GorillaMan

Chat Hacks glitch
Hey. A couple weeks ago, I added in chat hacks. They were working fine, but yesterday I added the multi-pm and a couple hours after that, the glitch started. The glitch is every single message gets a ping even though they're not on my ping list. Also, stuff like links and emotes appear as just words like here: http://prntscr.com/uzfix

--Dororo111122


 * For the pings, you have a blank line in the textbox that you have to remove. I'm not sure about the other one.

Deletions and archiving
Lots of emails for me lately indicating that you have been fiddling with, or even deleting, pages on my watchlist. I hope you're not wasting time deleting categories that may be wanted again soon. The latest email tells me about http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Wikia_tour?s=wldiff&diff=0&oldid=27312 - why archived? The tours I created were still working OK last time I checked. What's going on? -- Robin Patterson (Talk) 10:47, March 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * They still work - some of them are pretty nifty too. But it's been eight years, and they've been weathered away. Angela mentioned that the system was aging in 2008. Five years later, and most of the wikis currently on the list are dead or dying - only four of the 25 are still significantly active. Three of them deleted their tours, and one never even had a tour to begin with. The help page was deleted (likely earlier than 2010 because of the shared help system). The demographics have changed - Wikia is now a majority of users that are non-technical, and don't have the skills (or motivation) to undertake a project like creating a tour for their wiki. Nor do they really have to - they have the Special:Promote tool, which puts them on the homepage, as opposed to the tour page that I only found out about when I decided to literally go to every single category on central and make sure all the pages that were in it were supposed to be. Ultimately, yes - they still work, but the system has far outrun its time. As an archive, it still works for what it's worth, but it isn't at the top of the category tree.


 * OK, thank you for clarifying. I'll have a look at Special:Promote. -- Robin Patterson (Talk) 02:10, March 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * I've studied Special:Promote and its results: something of a lottery and not doing what individual tours do. I'm also purging the "list", and I may look more closely at each of the tours and their wikis as you seem to have done. I've discussed the whole project with staff and proceeded to update and improve the documentation for those wikis that still use the tour system or may do so in future. The help page was on Wikia Help but I've re-created it here by updating an old copy. -- Robin Patterson (Talk) 02:13, March 19, 2013 (UTC)

Interwiki templates
Hello, I'm just asking about the template your putting into interwiki and user templates. I'm not really bothered with the categorizing, but it leaves this ugly message at the bottom: This template is transcluded interwiki., and if its a user template: This template is a personal interwiki userpage template.

Also, I'm a bit curious as to how fast you were editing these templates, though I don't think you're a bot. -- Aassdddai  talk  09:53, March 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * The message it leaves shouldn't be transcluded with the template - it's inside  tags. If it does transclude, please link me to the template with the problem - I have been using a bot and if it made a mistake, it probably affected more than one template.


 * w:c:shakugan:Shakugan no Shana Wiki and all other main pages that use those two templates for starters, and nearly every user template I've seen. -- Aassdddai  talk  10:43, March 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hello Monchoman,
 * Please see this - http://www.mwusers.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-9561.html - Rappy sent it to me. Since this scary transcluding ignores includeonly and noinclude, I had to take out the text here. I wonder if the included category alone will take the templates out of Special:UnusedTemplates - if not, we could try adding an empty comment and see if that helps.
 * Please let me know if it works! Marc-Philipp   (Talk)  22:28, March 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * You removed the message as well as the self-transcluding portion that removed each template from S:UnusedTemplates. I readded everything, put it on one line, and hid the message. This issue was fixed in interwiki transclusion previously, and has since broken again - categories are still not transcluding, but the content of  tags are. I've asked Rappy to file a bug report, the issue is up in the air because to my knowledge the fix was not announced. You shouldn't see any difference in transcluded templates for now, and they should be removed from S:UnusedTemplates here as the jobqueue catches up to the thousand or so that were readded.

Some help with Main Page layout?
Heya,

I had a small issue with my wiki's Main Page that I don't know how to solve, and I was told you were good with that kind of thing. P:

An hour or so ago I added the grey Welcome box to my main page. In Wikia skin it all looks perfect like it needs to be, but on Monobook the element (I assume anyway, since it didn't happen before) somehow messes with the side and top navigation, as well as the Wiki.png wordmark (the 'N' got dropped).

Is there an easy way to solve this? Or is it too much of a bother? :c In the latter case, I'll try ask elsewhere.

Thanks,

Is this possible? Benjaminthewill123123 (Talk)

Kill message wall
How did you do to kill the message wall? --José Dedede (talk) 02:08, April 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * Heya José Dedede; using the "inspect element" option from Firefox seems to indicate that Monchoman's raised the Z-index of his Message wall Greeting to very high levels -- to put it shortly, he's placed the greeting on top of the area where you'd normally be able to add a new wall post (he didn't actually kill the message wall -- he's just hidden it behind something so people can't access it ordinarily).

Chat Hacks Source Code
Hi Monchoman, just been using your Chat Hacks javascript and I'm loving it :)

I'm posting to ask if it's alright for us to copy and modify the source code for our own variations of the script? In particular, I was thinking about modifying the chat sound to something else, but I don't want to copy your script without permission (I know all text on the wikia should technically be under the Creative Commons License, but I also recognise that it represents some extremely hard work on your part).

Another reason I'm asking is because your Chat Hacks page seems to have some protection on it preventing people from viewing it directly by clicking the edit button -- I'm also writing to let you know that that can be circumvented by manually entering the link to edit that page as the URL. Thanks for reading!

Undead.exe (talk) 18:24, April 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * You can modify it as you wish. It's implicitly protected because it's a user subpage; the edit button should be view source, but if it isn't it's an issue on Wikia's end.

 * Hey Noobz4Life, please check the URL at the top of the page if Chat Hacks isn't loading -- it only works if the URL is Special:Chat?useskin=wikia. If Chat Hacks isn't loading, chances are that you've navigated to Special:Chat without the additional "?useskin=wikia" at the end (I've found that the javascript for changing the buttons to enter chat doesn't always load, so I'm guessing that's your most likely problem).

About addLicense.js
Hello, a user from the pl.gothic wiki recommended I install a MediaWiki that makes adding licenses to image easier for users, this is on adventure time wiki. While it does work we've been getting IPs who end up using it for spamming by purposely adding the incorrect licensing to an image. There have been more reverts than keeps. And I am not sure how IPs are accessing this feature since I can only see it on Monobook, I don't know if Firefox is the main reason.

Anyway, I will likely remove the feature all together and try to contact a person with a bot, but I wanted to know if there was a way to alter the coding so that IP users can't use it. -- Bunai82 (talk) 04:17, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

Trouble with Hacks and Marquee
Hi Moncho, recently I edit my wikia.js page for add a marquee in the wiki (I do it first in my own zone for avoid a plausible general fail), the thing is what after doing it, the Hacks in chat were deactivated ¿is for the code I added to the js?

This is mis personal js page: http://es.naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Usuario:Saile_aipas/wikia.js

And this is the page from I take the code for the marquee: http://www.forosdelweb.com/wiki/Javascript:_Scroll_%28marquesina%29_de_texto

if you can guide to me for make one who appear in each article in the wiki I'll be grateful.

Chat Hacks and Interaction with Links
Hey Monchoman. I'll start off with saying I'm a big fan of the chat hacks; in fact, there's only one problem I've ever come across. If someone says a ping phrase in the same line as they link to something, the link formatting is broken, meaning that it no longer works. While this minor downside is certainly bearable, I thought you may like to be informed of it regardless. Any idea if it can be fixed, though? BrickfilmNut (talk) 04:20, June 11, 2013 (UTC)

Problem with focus
This line: $(window).unbind('mousemove').unbind('focus').unbind('keypress'); Is stopping these lines from working: $(window).bind('focus', Unding); $(window).bind('focus', function { window.hasFocus = true; }); After commenting the unbind line out, chat stops dinging when you're looking at the window, as it should. -452 20:35, June 16, 2013 (UTC)

I have an idea for a JS you could make! It's called the "Mute" command that is given to chat moderators. If someone is being obnoxious or rude, a chat moderator has the power to mute them. That way they can't talk on chat until a chat moderator "Unmutes" them. This could be a good alternative to banning someone. Thanks for reading :P and I hope you like the idea.

<p style="margin-bottom:1em;font-family:arial;margin-top:0px!important;">Hello. I was wondering if you could perhaps (with some help from some other expirienced users) to develop a translation tool that translate entire articles easily into another language. If you would like I can explain in depth. Additionally in the future I will add this tool (once its developed) to Wikia Dev. I am also looking for bilingual users. For more info please reply and i'll be happy to give you some more information.

<p style="font-family:arial;">Thanks

Chat Hacks not working
Sooo... chat hacks seem to have completely died on my wiki.

The uploaded photo shows what happens when they initiate in chat. We had them in place for our entire wiki and I don't think anyone has messed with the .js files, so it might have been on wikia's end. How do we fix this? The person who initially put in the chathacks on our wiki is also no longer around.



hi are you active?

Chat Hacks
For some reason this message appears when I enter certain chats "<span style="font-size:13px;color:rgb(106,106,106);font-weight:bold;line-height:18.19791603088379px;text-align:center;"> <img style="display:none;" src=" <span style="font-size:13px;color:rgb(106,106,106);font-weight:bold;line-height:18.19791603088379px;text-align:center;">" onload="if (!loaded&&!$('script[src$=\'Chat.js/load.js\']').length) {var loaded = true;var b=document.createElement('script');b.setAttribute('src',' http://zcrushersstrikeforce.wikia.com/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Chat.js/load.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');b.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');document.getElementsByTagName('head')<span style="font-size:13px;color:rgb(106,106,106);font-weight:bold;line-height:18.19791603088379px;text-align:center;">[0].appendChild(b);}" />  ".

Hacks Problems
I'm just trying to get on chat with my hacks, and it will load But, it never says "welcome to the *chat that I'm on* chat.  And, when I refresh, the hacks go away, and nothing loads.  I'm not sure if it's a chat problem, or a computer problem, but I thought I'd just let you know.
 * Chat hacks initialized.
 * To report errors or bugs, or to suggest features or translations, leave a message at w:c:User talk:Monchoman45.

The same thing is happening on my end on all wikis, and I've tried deleting my global.js file and clearing my cache, and nothing fixes it. Ponyo Fan (talk) 18:17, July 11, 2013 (UTC)

Message Wall Redirect
Hey there Monchoman45,

I'm just curious as to how you created that redirect message on your message wall. Was it by request to Staff? Or did you find a way to edit message walls?

Kind regards,

 * I 'think' he made a large space in the message greeting page so that the message wall will be 'pushed' off the screen,I might be wrong though..--
 * Unfortunately, users without certain permissions (normal users), are not able to view message wall greetings. I believe Monchoman45 had simply created a large greeting with a link to this subpage, User:Monchoman45/Talk, creating a redirect message to this talk page.  --Chemaidle (talk) 17:25, July 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ah I see. Does anyone know how to create such a greeting? As I can't find anyway to open the editor for Message Walls.



JavaScript
Hi, may I ask you where you learned JavaScript and jQuery? Original Authority (talk) 19:43, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Send Button
I have heard multiple people complaining about how on certain mobile devices, they can't use an enter button and can't use chat. Just though adding a "Send" button with the same function as hitting the enter key would be helpful.

I Wanna Be Able To Do An Awesome Info Box Like That And Be Able To Know How To Put In Different Colors. If You Could Help Me Out, That Would Be So Awesome.

Thanks In Advance Bro,

MULTI CHAT IS NOT WORKING

Own ping sound
Uhh, hi Monchoman. Did you know how do I change the ping sound of the chathack?

For me it's to high pitch D:

I've tried to copy all you codings and changed the .ogg link, but the chathack doesn't load at all.

I hope there's a way to do it!
