Another question
Charitwo is not responding back to my kickban, what should i do? I want to chat again, real bad! TheBen10Mazter (T-B-C) 15:35, July 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Charitwo is not responding back because you've already been told why you were banned and what you should do.


 * Does that mean i will never get to chat again? TheBen10Mazter (T-B-C) 15:49, July 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Not necessarily forever, but definitely not at this time.

Missing buttons
Hey Monchoman, I'm having a problem, and this seems to be effecting few of the wikis, the "Edit Profile" button has vanished, and I can't edit my profile or talk page, what is going on this time? Is it another glich or something? Weasel If you wouldn't call that an emergency, what would you call it? Alice?, 04:50, July 20, 2011, (UTC)


 * It's a glitch from the recent update. Staff are aware and working on it.

Hey dude
You should tell the reason of the kickban to that user who got kickbaned not me. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 01:25, July 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * He was replying to the most recent message of the conversation (this is one of the most confusing things when people talk on more than one talk page, follow my advice: don't do it) --  Random Time  01:29, July 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * I know but i hate when people do that. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 01:35, July 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * I was unaware that the conversation was on multiple talk pages. I replied to the one I saw, per Randomtime, because having a conversation on multiple talk pages is confusing. It's always easier to keep it on one page.
 * Well the person who you need to talk to is Newbie49. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 01:41, July 23, 2011 (UTC)

archive button
hi moncho, personally I like your old userboxes better but its up to you. Anyways how ddid the archive button for chat work and whats wrong with it. Thanks,


 * My chat bot is currently in testing on Bleach wiki, and since I don't have access to chat right now I'd like to keep it to just Bleach as it's easier to monitor that way.

Administration Team Template on the Hogwarts RPG
Hi Monchoman. We're having problems on the Hogwarts RPG with this. We want to add a list for the Sortings Deartment right under the Creative Department but don't know how. Could you please help us? Thanks!


 * Is that what you wanted?


 * Exactly what I wanted, thank you so much!

A little help
Hey, if it's not too much of a bother to you. Can you tell me if it's possible to edit this page, to make it where the template appears when you are editing a page and when you first create a page. If you could help me out with this i'd be most appreciative, thanks for your time.


 * I'm not sure what you mean. Do you want a template to be loaded up every time you create a page?

The current code adds a header to the top of the page every time you edit a page like here, I want it to appear when people create pages as well.


 * You can do that with MediaWiki:Newarticletext.

O, I wasn't aware of that, Thanks!

Portal Skin
Just wondering but is it ok with you if I copy the js of portal and tweak it so it suits my needs? Thanks,


 * Go for it, but I doubt you'll get much out of it.
 * I just really wanted to add some more links in the side bar. Btw is it possible to protect a page from being moved but not from being edited because it seems like the two are interconnected- when you change one both change. Also is there a way to remove double categories using AWB. --
 * Good point, there should be a function for adding more links to the sidebar. You can protect a page from being moved but not from being edited by clicking the checkbox in between the two fields. Then, you should be able to change one without changing the other. As for removing double categories with AWB, I don't know if it can do that. You should check the help pages for AWB on Wikipedia and see if they mention that anywhere.
 * Thanks for the help. I added a special pages link as of now and deleting some links I dont use. --
 * I think the tool menu is messed up. Also do you think you can make it compatible with the new editor--
 * Which tool menu, and no.


 * Thanks, I already customized it to suit my needs. Also in special:preferences he tabs are glitcyish. Just wanted to let you know. Btw I really like the skin.

Chat
Do you still have problems with connecting to chat ???


 * Yes, I still can't connect to chat.
 * Can you try with http://NAMEOFWIKI.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Chat?nosockets=1 TomekO 20:08, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

Hi
Hey, Moncho, could you program a offline and online thing for me on my Ben 10 wiki user page? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 19:10, July 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * Do you mean a Skype link? If so, you should be able to get code for that from Skype or there may be a special tag for it.


 * No, go to SpikeToronto's user page on the admin tools wiki and there should be a be a circle and a word saying around, offline, vegetating, busy, or online. That one. --TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 19:39, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

 * I'm sorry Moncho, but I'm not sure how to do it, could be please do it for me since your a expert. Thank you. Please program here, http://ben10.wikia.com/user:TheBen10Mazter. Thanks! And please program it next to the picture of Luigi dancing. Thanks! --TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 19:56, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * So did you finish it? Look at the message above. --TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 20:10, July 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * No, there are a lot of templates involved, as well as a script and images. You should ask SpikeToronto, as he set it up for admin tools.


 * But he said it was too much work and i can copy over the files if i wanted to. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 20:32, July 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * you can I did it easliy but change the template a bitTama 63  20:35, July 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, you can copy the files over if you want to, but it'll be a lot of work. You need the script, the images, and the template, as well as any other templates included in that one.


 * Well, could you please help me? I really dont know how to copy the files. It would really mean a lot to me :) TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 20:59, July 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * Um all you have to do it find all the image names the will be something like File:Ledgreen.png save them then user special:upload on the ben 10 wiki then look at the list of used templates on the statustop template on admin tools and copy those templates over!--Tama 63  21:04, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

Kickban
So as you see this, you might notice that you are unable to access chat. You were join/part flooding badly and so charitwo banned you. You can remove the ban yourself once you stabilize he said.--

Hey
Can i chat with you on the Ben 10 wikiabout something? Thanks! TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 13:32, July 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, but my connection has been acting up recently so I may disconnect randomly.


 * So are you coming? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 13:37, July 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey, the chat is on the Ben 10 wiki (link above), i dont see you there. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 13:41, July 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Are you on chat? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 13:53, July 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Can we chat on the Ben 10 wiki for real? Thanks!  TheBen10Mazter  (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  15:18, July 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'm already there. I had to leave for two hours previously. Please also don't leave me 4 talk page messages in a row, 1 is fine as it'll notify me and I'll see it when I'm available.

why not talking to me
you are not talking to me why

Joined/Rejoin Chat
Are you aware your flooding chat with your constant join/rejoin, what's your intention? Citadel Universal  11:36, July 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you're really annoying. Did you break your hacks? Or is it just acting up for some reason? 12:14, July 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Seriously it's annoying, please find a way to stop it. Your flooding our chat conversations!
 * -- 12:44, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

I'm leaving this message so that nobody leaves another message about this. It's chat's connection on him that's doing this. It's happened to BobNewbie, it's happened to Godisme. All that it takes is a simple strike of F5 to fix it, but currently, Monch is either at work or asleep so he can't do that. So we just have to simply deal with it since there's nothing he can do about it, nor can we. So we just need to stop fussing over it. -- Jä zz  i  13:16, July 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Per Jazzi, it's assumed to be a server side problem. Anyone can get it, and it's fixable (temporarily) by refreshing. You can't see that you're join/part flooding because chat doesn't show you your disconnects and reconnects. Usually I'm not stupid and I don't leave it open overnight, obviously last night I was stupid.

Bot Trouble
Hello, Moncho. Sorry to bother you, but I am having trouble with a bot. A user, TheBen10Mazter, recommended AutoWikiBrowser to me. I downloaded it from SourceForge, the site he recommended. The only problem is that when I try to open it, it gives me an error message saying that "The application failed to load" or something like that. Mazter recommended asking you for additional help, since it seems that it's not downloading properly. Please respond on my talk page. Thanks in advance!

Roads is a Wikia user! Duh! -_- 16:53, August 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * No offense but Mazter has no bot experince using AutoWiki Browser I have been using it for 3 months please refer to Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser for any extra help--Tama 63  16:56, August 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * This is a mirror, try downloading it from here and see if it works. If not, sourceforge also has a mirror that may work.
 * @Tama63- do NOT always say bad things about me, i just got a bot okay, why dont you just back off. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 17:04, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

 * Wow, that is mean, one day im going to prove to you that im a good user. If you keep on saying these bad things about me, i might report you, this is really mean, "i doubt he will even use his bot (correctly)." The correctly part is the meanest. Why dont you go pick on someone else, you mean bully. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 18:27, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * i am not "picking on you" I am just annoyed at your useless comments on forums and you annoying staff by keeping on asking them to look at something!Tama 63  18:38, August 1, 2011 (UTC)( I am sure many will agree)


 * Both of you, stop. This isn't the place to hold this discussion. If you don't like each other, try to avoid each other. Otherwise no good will come from talking to each other. Ever. So just stop insulting each other, and just try to avoid each other. For the sanity of others, please. –  Jä zz  i  18:44, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

Walrus Wiki Edit Count
Just to let you know that the Top 5 module in the sidebar of your user page on the newer profiles is messed up. Apparently, you have 9343 edits on Walrus Wiki.


 * I also have 3 edits on community according to chat, so I'm not surprised.


 * Excellent. 15:50, August 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Moncho, Brandon needs to take a look at it, so can you unhide it from your Top 5?


 * Done. It's unhidden, but no longer shows an editcount of over 9000.

thanks
thank you for answering, I wont post the same question on diffrent pages.

Help
Thanks for your help. It's quite a jump from a normal user to a founder, so at the risk of seeming unintelligent, could you help me by simplifying that? CPO [~talk~] 18:38, August 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * All you have to do is add the text  to the page titled MediaWiki:Wikia.css on your wiki. You can search MediaWiki:Wikia.css and it should take you directly to it. Once you've added the text, it should have instructions for clearing your cache, follow those and the read more headings should disappear. If they don't, Wikia's server likely hasn't recognized the page yet, and it may take up to a day before the headings disappear.


 * Wikia requests that the Related Pages Module be Special:Contacted to be removed per wiki instead of using CSS. They'd like to know how many wikis opt to remove the feature. This helps them to know certain feature uses and percentages of wikis using them. Rappy 18:49, August 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * As Special:Contact takes time, it's best to hide with CSS as a temporary fix and also send a Special:Contact, per forum response.


 * Thank you. I have done all that now. Thanks again for you time, and quick response. Have a nice evening. CPO [~talk~] 19:09, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Custom Favicon
Moncho, how come this doesn't work in Chrome?


 * tags use.


 * I don;t follow. Where is this src meant to be? Because I don't see any src in Firebug.


 * Whoops, you're right, they use . It's possible that Chrome doesn't want to change the favicon after it's already been added to the tab bar, or that Chrome sees the replace as adding a second favicon, which it ignores. Try changing the href with   and see if that works.


 * Err... I don't think I did it right, cause now it isn;t working in FF either. Could you take a look?


 * The code is correct, apparently changing the href doesn't update the favicon. It may not be possible in Chrome, I can't think of any other way that might work.

CSS
Hey, could you pass me the CSS for changing the color of my comments which includes blog and article comments? 03:46, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

<pre style="margin-left:24px;"> .comments li[data-user="Natsu11"] > blockquote { background:#color !important; } .comments li[data-user="Natsu11"] > blockquote:after { border-color:transparent #color #color transparent !important; } .comments li[data-user="Natsu11"] > blockquote div { background:transparent !important; }

Also, is it possible to add the button for recent changes instead of changing the wiki activity into this. 03:57, August 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Not sure why you'd want to do that, as WA is the bad RC, but this is the code you'd use:

<pre style="margin-left:24px;"> function RecentChangesButton { $('a.wikia-button[data-id$="wikiactivity"]').after('<a data-id="recentchanges" class="wikia-button secondary" accesskey="g" title="Special:RecentChanges" href="/wiki/Special:RecentChanges"><img height="0" width="0" class="sprite activity" src="http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/common/skins/common/blank.gif">Recent Changes</a>'); } addOnloadHook(RecentChangesButton);

JS coding
Hi there, first off well done on being a featured wikian! Secondly, for .js coding, is there a way to edit Special:AdminDashboard? Like how I did here.Technobliterator 13:08, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Kickban
I'd like to be unkickbanned please. -- Julietfan2626


 * No 11:06, August 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't vandalise, spam, advertise, swear, break rules... All I was doing was just trying to lighten up the mood with some jokes - and you said I can appeal against my kickban and it will eventually be taken off, so I'm a appealing against your ridiculous reason for kickbanning me. -- Julietfan2626
 * Your request might actually be able to be taken seriously if it were not for your little stunt yesterday, the answer is No. 11:13, August 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't create an account just to go on there, I went on my brothers account. And if having multiple accounts is wrong, then I guess you should ban Randomtime, cos he openly admitted to having one. -- Julietfan2626


 * He may have been refering to his bot(which are allowed) or a test account(again are allowed) --<font color=Maroon>Tama <font color=Maroon>63  11:33, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * No, please do not step into situations on which you are not informed of the situation, thanks. -- 11:35, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well mine isn't even an account created by me! Wow, you're just pathetic. -- Julietfan2626


 * Using another account to use chat after your other one has been banned is evading the ban. Randomtime's account is not evading a ban, as Randomtime is not banned. Ban evasion is grounds for an instant and permanent kickban. It doesn't matter who created the account. Furthermore, my comment about appealing bans was that if you appeal your ban at a later date it may be taken off. There is no guarantee, and in cases of ban evasion your chances are slim to none.

But I'm appealing the original ban! I did nothing wrong! -- Julietfan2626


 * It doesn't matter. You did not accept the original ban, as such it will stay in place.

That's excuse is exactly like the failed parenting excuse, when parents go looking for petty arguments with their children and say they're grounded, but then the children will argue that they did nothing, because they didn't, and then parents will then say that they're grounded for talking back, not whatever it was in the first place. And it's the same for you, if you didn't ban me for the pathetic reason, I wouldn't have rebelled and thus we wouldn't be in this predicament! 18:16, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

I cleared it and also tried to restart the browser... Well as long the code works it's fine... thank you.

Hi, i was wondering if its not to much bother, if you could give me a bit of help. Basicly i tried to import some templates which worked fine but it messed up most of the other templates on the wiki.
