Help talk:Unified Community Platform

Thanks SO much for making this page. UCP looks good in the upcoming future. Can't wait!

Are you planning on making the UCP similar or like the current used platform? ("Legacy"?) I currently use the desktop editor but I am on mobile as I find the mobile editor to just be terrible. I recently created a new wiki and have found using desktop mode on mobile with UCP is completely incompatible, I struggle to make any edits and would love to hear if the UCP is going to be like the Legacy eventually.

 * CaesarsLegion001, have you tried using the UCP's mobile editor? It's vastly improved over the mobile editing experience on legacy. ~ SlyCooperFan1 [message &middot; contributions] 05:52, July 1, 2020 (UTC)

UCP wikis sample
Can we have at least a couple of examples of wikis already moved to the UCP? I'd prefer to have a considerable list, but if it's inconvenient for any reason, maybe just a couple of wikis moved and another couple already created on the new platform? It's great to read the description of the process, but what if we could see with our own eyes what is being described on the article? —Sapador Castelo (talk) 04:41, August 7, 2020 (UTC)

Hi, you can go on Wreck-It Woodhouse, as it's often indicated as a UCP test wiki where you can play with the new features. Celdrøn  (discussion) 14:22, August 7, 2020 (UTC)


 * If you want to take a look at a wiki that was created on the legacy platform but has already migrated to the UCP, you can check out the Final Fantasy Wiki. It's one of the biggest wikis we've migrated so far. Mira Laime (talk) 18:40, August 7, 2020 (UTC)


 * I tried it out  and it works! It is a bit strange to use and looks a bit scruffy when done, but is O.K. I am sure the great Wikia community will adapt and in time enjoy it, assuming it's not to buggy at first. User:Todetode :. ~ Under the Hood, Connect to Basic information? ~ Todetode (talk). 20:45, August 14, 2020 (UTC)

Achievements
They better not replace our achievements. I've worked so hard to make icons for them on one of my wikis   T h a t I s A P i r a t e |  Message Wall | '''Blogs

Achievements will be carried over to the UCP when wikis migrate there! Mira Laime (talk) 17:38, August 10, 2020 (UTC)

Rename Special:Chat heading
To match all the other headings under the Social Features section, the Special:Chat section should be renamed to something else, perhaps just "Chat", or maybe "Live Chat". -- Himmalerin   talk   18:59, August 10, 2020 (UTC)

Wiki Activity
Hi, I'm not sure if this will be taken into account, but I highly recommend that some version of Recent Wiki Activity will be carried over to UCP. "Recent changes," I find, is just so small and non-user friendly. With wiki activity, you can tell what's recently been edited in just a glance, where you really have to strain to do so with RecentChanges. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/theheiresses/images/7/7b/AudreyHighlightPic.png  Princess Diva  (talk) 22:29, August 12, 2020 (UTC)
 * While no substitute for the simplicity and clarity of WikiActivity, you might be interested in the ModernizedChanges stylesheet.  Himmalerin   talk   23:28, August 12, 2020 (UTC)
