Forum:Navigation problem

I have a problem with editing navigation. I tried everything, but it just doesn't change. This is my wiki: http://sl.harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Glavna_stran So if you can help me, please do that, beacuse I really need that wiki.


 * The page that needs to be edited is w:c:sl.harrypotter:MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar, but it seems you already know that. If you need any help on how to edit that page, w:c:help:Help:Sidebar provides more than enough information. :) Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 22:35, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I read this 100 times, done a lot of editing, but it just doesn't change. For example, I tried like this:


 * mainpage|Harry Potter
 * category|O strani
 * category|Kamen Modrosti
 * mainpage|Več
 * category|J.K.Rownling
 * mainpage|Skupnost
 * category|Forum
 * mainpage|Najbolj brano
 * visited#|most_visited
 * newlychanged#|newly_changed


 * You're doing something wrong, if I may point that out to you. With the category links, you need to put an entry like "*category-Kamen_Modrosti". If you want that to be a menu, put "*#category-Kamen_Modrosti#". Every link that has "mainpage" in it will link back to the main page; if you want to link them to an article, just put in the name of the article. I hope that answers all your queries. :) Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 12:15, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Thank you very much. I'll go and edit it now. But there's a problem again. When I'm not signed in navigation is cool. But when I sign in as admin navigation is like default.


 * No problem at all. :) The reason why it appears as default when you're signed in is because you haven't cleared your cache. Try doing this by pressing CTRL-F5. Many browsers use that combination as a trigger to "clear cache". Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 14:28, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

I pressed it 100 times, but it's still default. If you or anyone could edit this navigation, I would be very happy. If nobody can't than I don't know what to do.


 * Hmmm, it looks like you'll just have to be patient and wait... if you come back tomorrow, the chances are that the new navigation will have appeared. Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 15:05, 7 August 2009 (UTC)


 * This is not a cache issue. The sidebar is different for each language. Be sure that you use the same language in your preferences than the wiki, or you wolud see the "default" for that language. See w:c:help:Help:Sidebar --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 15:22, 7 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, I assumed that the language for this user is set at the language of the wiki (that's normally the case, otherwise the question asked here would have been "why is half the interface in English?") - but I often make poor assumptions...

Wow, thanks a lot. I changed language and now it really works (: Thank you both (:


 * Yeah, like I said, poor assumptions. Thanks Ciencia Al Poder for point that bit out... Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 15:39, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Just one more problem. When I try to do like Wiki descriptions and than Pokemon, it does't show anything. It's just more and edit this menu. Have I done anything wrong again?


 * category-Harry_Potter
 * category-Kamen_Modrosti
 * category-Dvorana_Skrivnosti
 * category-Jetnik_iz_Azkabana
 * category-Ognjeni_Kelih
 * category-Feniksov_Red
 * category-Princ_mešane_krvi
 * category-Svetinje_Smrti
 * category-J.K.Rownling
 * category-Čarovniški_svet|Čarovniški svet
 * category-Ostalo
 * visited#-Najbolj_obiskovano
 * topusers#-Naj_uporabnik


 * Sorry, could you explain more clearly which page you mean by "wiki descriptions"? Because wiki descriptions aren't controlled by the sidebar... Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 23:19, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

I thought that menu: http://img37.imageshack.us/i/37441523.png/


 * That menu is Wikia central's menu. You can have your own personalized menu if you edit User:your name/Monaco-sidebar but unless your language would be set up to english, admins of central need to set up a menu for your language for you to see something else than the default one on Central. — TulipVorlax 22:26, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm fairly sure that Dragon Princ wants help regarding some wiki description or menu on his wiki, not for Central, but I can't be sure. Sorry, but I still don't understand what you want. :( Wjxhuang,  the 888th Avatar  {Talk} 03:42, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I want to edit that menu on my wiki. Like here Wiki description (on my wiki would be Harry Potter) and then Pokemon (on my wiki would be J.K. Rownling or something).


 * You can't make "Wiki descriptions" appear on the sidebar of another wiki because it's the name of a category here on Central and that it only when for people who visit this wiki with a different language than english (unless Central's admins have made a subpage of Mediawiki:Monaco-sidebar for that perticular language) because that category is one of the most used on Central.
 * The left image is the one you posted as a link up there and the one at the right is what people are supposed to see on Central.

 * If you want a personalized menu on the sidebar, on the wiki where you are admin, you have to insert something like the following in Mediawiki:monaco-sidebar over there :


 * name of the menu
 * page to link to|text of the link
 * page to link to|text of the link
 * page to link to|text of the link
 * That's all. — TulipVorlax 03:40, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
