User talk:Monchoman45/Archive 2

 Archive 1

Got questions? Feel free to ask!

#time Codes
Are #time codes based upon the user's time, the reader's time, or just UTC? BST has jsut started and I have had to correct my sig, but I don't know whether other users in different time zones will see the incorrect time. <- Time corrected with +1

Time codes are UTC. They are not relative so what you see is what others see. P.S- Monchoman:I feel like you talk page gets about as many questions as staff these days--


 * Time codes are UTC unless you specify an offset. It should actually correct itself automatically (Google's showing 15:24 right now), so you might have double corrected. But I'm not exactly the most time-aware person, so I'm not 100% sure.
 * Also, Godisme - I think so too. I had been waiting for a period when I didn't have any active questions so I could archive my page for a few weeks. Managed to sneak it in last night, as you can see.
 * Above, I had corrected to match BST. So based on that sig, Godisme answered my question 57 minutes before I asked it. :D
 * Have went back to UTC as it makes things easier for everyone.

Link color issue
It's me again! ;) I have a link color issue, maybe a conflict between several CSS things. Look here, in the right menu. "Add a Page", "Add an image" and "Random Wiki" have as "visited" the same colors as the in-article links, but I'd like them to stay white as they are before being clicked on. Do you know where and how I could fix that?... Thanks. Klow 15:06, March 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's odd - those aren't supposed to change at all. When you changed the link colors, did you do it with CSS or the ThemeDesigner?
 * CSS. I never saw any "visited" in the ThemeDesigner... Klow 19:29, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * The ThemeDesigner doesn't mind normal/hover/clicked/visited, it just sets them all at once. I'm not noticing any problems with the random wiki button, nor with any of the other buttons - in fact, none of the links seem to change color when visited.
 * Click on one of the 3 buttons, you'll see the text will turn brown... Klow 19:38, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, I fail - I had my global.css override on. Yea, the buttons change when you click them. To fix that, instead of doing all links, use, which will only change the links in the header and the content area.
 * Doesn't seem to work... :/ Klow 20:24, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh. It changes the colors in the top menu! Not really what I expected... Klow 20:27, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Bump? Still not fixed... Klow 18:40, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

(unindent) It should also change the links in the content area, but it should exempt the buttons.
 * What?... Klow 22:33, March 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * and  are the header and the content area, but not the rail. So it should change the visited links only in the header and the content area.
 * So how can I change the buttons only?... Klow 14:10, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm confused now - are you trying to make the visited color for the buttons different, or keep it the same while changing the color of all the other links?
 * I just want to change the visited color for the buttons only. Have them white, the same colors as when they are not visited... Klow 16:04, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah, I think we got mixed up somewhere here - if you replace your  line with , it should change only the links in the content area and the header, which shouldn't include the buttons.
 * Ok, almost there! That worked for the menu buttons, but now the "Edit" button near article titles uses the visited color, as well as the hover menus right of the wiki's logo, which is not right for me. Klow 16:50, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
 * Try just, then. That shouldn't affect the edit button or the wiki-navigation menus.
 * Good, but now the visited doesn't work anymore in the "Recent Wiki Activity" menu... Klow 17:16, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

(unindent) Add.


 * You forgot "a:visited". ;) Fixed now, thanks! I actually still have many other problems and questions, can I give you a list?... Klow 18:49, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yea, go ahead.

Turning off Wikia's hover menus
Monchoman45. Has anybody figured out a way for editors to turn off the Wikia hover menus at the very top? In the personal CSS or JS of an editor. I want the menus to continue to work by clicking on them. I just want the hover part to stop.

I spend a lot of time waiting for those hover menus to go away. They are always popping up because I frequently go to the tabs in my browser. --Timeshifter 20:17, March 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * You'd have to convert the onmouseover listener to onclick. It can probably be done, but it seems like a better fix would just be to remove them with CSS. They're not really that useful to most people anyway.
 * Hell yeah it's extremely annoying. I guess it's purposely done so that they are sure we always click on them, by mistake or not. So how is it removed?... Klow 20:26, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * They're mostly for search optimization by bots, and for the random anon users that don't edit and just want content. It's really just there to make them money, doesn't really serve a purpose for most editors. Which is nice, because I really don't feel like paying to use Wikia. You can remove it with.
 * I actually don't want to remove them, just that nothing happens when you hover them. Klow 21:12, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Try this in your JS:

 function KillGlobalNav { $('#GlobalNavigation').unbind; }

addOnloadHook(KillGlobalNav);
 * That should do it.


 * In Common.js? No change... Klow 21:23, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

(unindent) Make sure you purge the page, and make sure it's in a personal JS file.


 * Ive tried both of these solutions now and neither works for me even after clearing my cache. I use ctrl+F5 to clear it so am I doing this wrong?--
 * Me too. I put the code here in User:Klow/global.js, and no results... Klow 21:46, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hmmm. What about ?


 * Neither the css nor the js you provided worked for me--


 * I just tried the CSS, and it definitely works. The JS is using a function I don't completely understand. I still think it's best to just hide the menus.


 * CSS still won't work for me. Ive purged the page several times and still nothing. Perhaps I am adding it wrong? Have a look User:Godisme/global.css--
 * Looks right to me. Odd, I put it in mine and it goes away for me. Possibly an override you have somewhere? Try adding  and see if that helps.
 * So could you sum up what to paste where exactly ?... :/ Klow 17:08, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

(unindent) They should go away if you put  in wikia.css or global.css. I still have to look in to the JS thing that only disables the menus, though. Might be worth just hiding the menus with CSS, instead of stopping them from displaying.


 * Thanks, Monchoman45. The CSS hides the global menus when using the CSS here:
 * http://cannabis.wikia.com/wiki/User:Timeshifter/wikia.css


 * I can go to the community wiki here to see the menus. I still see them fine here. --Timeshifter 18:39, March 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Works great now. Thanks a lot! Klow 18:40, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Hi Moncho
Hry Machoman, hows it going, have you noticed that when you log in, into wikia and you go to another wikia you are logged in and if you visit a second wikia you're not logged in and you have to log in again, is it another glitch or something? Niko Banks Whats up gangsta!, 05:59, March 29, 2011, (UTC)


 * Some people still have login issues, presumably from the MediaWiki 1.16 update. But I haven't heard anything about logins not transferring wikis - you might want to Special:Contact about this one.

Fan
You have a fan user:Monchowoman45--
 * Yea, I saw. No big deal, I Special:Contacted already.

Hey!
Back in the day, I used to be addicted to Kong. Then the forums got filled with trolls, I left, got bored, and now I'm on wikia. :) JaidynM  ( Talk ) - ( Blog ) 10:33, March 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Most of the trolls are just 8 year olds, which Kong seems to be better at getting rid of now. But now that Kong is owned by GameStop, every game gets badges, even if it shouldn't.

Thank You
Hey Monchoman, I've noticed you do tremendous work in supporting users on the forums (and pretty much everywhere else). You know your stuff, and you're consistently respectful and supportive. Thank you. We appreciate it greatly. --Dopp http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 17:33, April 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem - it beats doing homework any day.

Thanks
Hey Monchoman, just wanted to stop back by and say thanks for having the Archive page. I had to come back to grab the fix again so I could use it for another sig I was helping to set up and was a bit worried when I didn't find it on your talk page. I can certainly understand having to clear off the talk page especially when you get so many comments. Having the archive page was a lifesaver for me and a definite time saver for you (since you didn't have to answer me again lol) So thanks again mate!

List of things to fix
Typically, I'd like these things to be applied to the whole Combine OverWiki, not only for me, in the hope that it's ToU-safe. Thanks a lot for going through that, take your time! Klow 20:37, April 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * Disable for good the popups for the images. I made a few fixes, but currently in the galleries (those within articles, in image categories, and the new files right menu) it still works. In normal file links within articles it properly directs to "File:" like I want, but the popup still shows up a few seconds before properly redirecting to the file. In the past I was able (I think thanks to you) to disable that popup, but it was actually hiding it, so while it was working fine for images within articles, the left click didn't work anymore for files set within a gallery.
 * Disable the popup to still working in the "Special:Upload" button set about the images in Special:NewFiles.
 * Bring back heights broken for no reason in the galleries. I'm not sure it can be fixed. It's sad because to me it makes our galleries look very messy. Why does "widths" still works and not "heights"?...
 * One more thing about the buttons in the right menu. Their hover color should also be white, and not brown as in the articles. I guess this one is quite simple...


 * First one is easy. Add  to your CSS. You should be ok with doing that wiki-wide, as it's not that big of a change, and it's only a copy of the categories at the bottom of the article. And this will add the file prefix back. You can do this wiki-wide. Put it in your JS:

 function FilePrefix { $('.ns-6 #WikiaPageHeader h1').html('File:' + $('#WikiaPageHeader h1').html); $('.ns-7 #WikiaPageHeader h1').html('File talk:' + $('#WikiaPageHeader h1').html); }

addOnloadHook(FilePrefix);
 * Going to have to work on the rest for a little bit.


 * Thanks, the first worked like a charm, but the other resulted in this in the file titles:  Klow 08:54, April 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Whoooops. Put  after the   at the end of the two indented lines.
 * Two more CSS ones - add  for white gallery backgrounds, and   for the read more in the header.
 * Where exactly the ? It doesn't work... For the gallery, doesn't work either, and for "read more" you already gave it to me above (and it works!)... Klow 20:28, April 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I just fixed it in the code above, so if you copy it again it should work. Fail for giving you the same solution twice, I do this stuff so much it all bleeds together. And for the gallery, are you sure? Did you purge the page?
 * For the gallery, the color was to be in hex, so I just replaced it with #FFFFFF, and now it works! For the "File", no results... Seeing anything here?... Klow 22:50, April 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I just tried it in my personal JS, and it's working for me. Another user was having problems with a function that was working fine for me, which fixed itself when he edited the page again. Try doing a null edit and see if that helps.
 * I saw what's wrong. I read CSS instead of JS... Klow 20:45, April 3, 2011 (UTC)

(unindent) That would do it, too. You should be able to disable the rest of the popups by going in your preferences under edit and checking "disable createpage popup".


 * So what else can you help me fixing?... Klow 18:42, April 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sidebar button hovers. CSS: . That might not work for all buttons, because there are 9001 different button classes, so let me know if one or two are left out.
 * That works. Still need to be fixed the "Start a wiki" button near the Wikia logo. Klow 20:14, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Add  to the beginning of that, and that should fix it.
 * Great thanks! So what about my other issues? If you're not lost yet... Klow 11:04, April 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think I'll be able to do anything about the heights for the gallery, that's something to bring up with staff via Special:Contact if you haven't already. The popups will be a bit harder, because I may have to fiddle with Wikia's popup scripts, but they should go away if you disable the createpage popup in your preferences.

Css and JS
Hey can u explain what Css and JS mean ? —This unsigned comment is by Roranoa zoro (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with !


 * CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets, and controls how things are displayed; for example, the color of the text, the margins on the page, the height of the header, etc. JS stands for JavaScript (not to be confused with Java), and is the basic scripting language for everything on the internet. It can be used to modify the HTML source of the page, for example, the edit button drop down menu uses JS.


 * Hmm ! Thanks a lot bud ! I did not sign because of my custom sign ! ......... and I would like to inform u of a user that uses a similar name to urs, just in case u feel uncomfortable (User:Monchowoman45)
 * Thanks again ! Roranoa zoro (talk •contribs)
 * Staff have already taken care of Monchowoman45, but thank you for pointing it out, as it was a sockpuppet.

Featured Wiki
Hello. I want to know how can I nominate a wiki to be Featured (in the main page of entertaiment wiki)? Thanks. Dcasawang1  (talk)  15:41, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * If you want it on the Entertainment Wiki, I think you have to find their local policy for it - I'm not sure Entertainment Wiki is a Wikia-run thing. Other things, like the hubs and the global navigation bar, are selected by staff at their discretion, and don't have a nominations process as far as I know.
 * Ok, thanks. Dcasawang1   (talk)  16:28, April 3, 2011 (UTC)

You're Awesome
I find you one of the most helpful people on Wikia. Keep up the good work! You seem to know almost everything about Wikia. Mr. Grille (talk page) 23:54, April 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, will do (:


 * Yeah, he gets that from me. Rappy 00:06, April 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * He is alright, I suppose ;)--

User Links
I've been trying to make an index of all my user links, but I'm unable to do it : Is there a way to do it ?


 * Thanks in advance ! 16:19, April 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Which user links? Do you mean subpages of your userpage (eg. User:Roranoa zoro/sig 1)?
 * (edit conflict) I think you're going to have to give a little more information than this if you're wanting that answered. "Is there a way to do it?" More than likely. We just need to know exactly what 'it' is. Rappy 16:24, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the mistake : Yes I mean the subpages of my userpage . 16:27, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Special:PrefixIndex/User:Roranoa_zoro. Rappy 16:28, April 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks bud ! 16:29, April 4, 2011 (UTC)

Bot
I see you have a bot. Might I ask you to help with something on Bleach wiki with it?--


 * I'd be glad to, once I figure out how to make it log in to Wikia instead of Wikipedia.


 * See that is one of the problems I had in trying to set up my own among various other problems--


 * I think I've got it working. What did you need help with? ~ Monch bot ( contribs  |  Monchoman45 ) 20:56, April 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * We need a bunch of categories created. We categorize all of our images into categories by episode number but we are missing quite a few. We follow a format of naming them Category:Episode epnumber screenshots with epnumber obviously being a variable for the numerical episode number. Inside each category is placed


 * This category contains screenshots from Bleach anime episode epnumber, epname.




 * If I got you a list of the episode numbers and names that need creating do you think your bot could create them for us?--
 * AWB doesn't seem to be able to create pages, which is unfortunate. Although, based on the Wikipedia guide, my dropdown menu is bugged, so I'm not entirely sure.


 * Oh, you are using AWB. I thought you were using Pywikipedia. Never mind then.--
 * I'm still new to the bot thing - I can try Pywikipedia if that's better.

(unindent) Well Pywikipedia is pretty advanced. I tried setting it up but it runs on Python and unfortunately the only languages I am good with are Java and Basic so I was not able to get it running. If you want to give it a try, go ahead, but it is not easy. I can always get someone else as I know several other people are good with Pywikipedia.--


 * It doesn't seem to like me, as it won't install. Bummer.

RE: Top Menu
I tried it but it still didn't work, but one thing, how do I get a sig on my page?


 * You can add a signature by placing four tildes ( ~) to the end of your post--


 * Are you sure, Chance? According to the help page, it should work. Alternatively, you could just manually add links.

lol
Naw, OT was epic. But now every game gets badges? When did this happen? My username was ArchSlayer100 btw. :) JaidynM  ( Talk ) - ( Blog ) 05:03, April 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not every game, but a lot of games that shouldn't. Greg still makes good badges, though.
 * Ah yes.... Good ole' greg... :) JaidynM  ( Talk ) - ( Blog ) 06:26, April 10, 2011 (UTC)

Creating/modifying a CSS page for a wiki
I have read several comments on adding/changing/editing a wiki's CSS page in order to get certain results. When our wiki used the old Monobook theme, it had a CSS page (not sure if one of our users originally created it or if it came with the inital creation of the wiki) however we could always go and update/make changes to the css page there to get desired results. When I looked at our CSS under this new layout that Wikia rolled out to everyone, our CSS page is blank. I'm not sure at this point how to get ours setup so that we don't really change what we have, but can add stuff to it, such as blocking the "read more" section at the bottom of certain pages. Can you give me some guidance on what I should do as far as getting our CSS page to the point I can add stuff to modify our wiki? Thanks!


 * Wikia.css does indeed start out blank, but you should be able to add content to it with no problem. The server will load it if it sees you've put something on it.


 * Wikia utilizes SCSS which is stored on the server and not locally. This provides slightly faster load times. While your Wikia.css file is blank, there is still a lot being loaded up from the SCSS. The Theme Designer also saves the changes to this SCSS file instead of creating a Wikia.css locally. Rappy 00:29, April 10, 2011 (UTC)

Sig
With your sig, do you have to import the sig pages onto each of the wikis you edit, or is there a way to reference the one here at community wiki?


 * You have to import it to every wiki, because Wikia doesn't allow interwiki transclusion of sigs - interwiki transclusion as is probably takes somewhere around a second, multiplied by dozens and dozens of sigs on a page could make for long page load times and epic server lag. You'll have to copy and paste all the code each time. Ajax won't help here either - the script for interwiki transclusion with Ajax only works for pages, and would be just as bad as normal interwiki transclusion if used for sigs.
 * Fair enough.

About Sigs
Hey, I could use a little help. I've been searching and searching, but I can't seem to figure out this whole custom sig thing, and I was wondering if you could help me out. I really do like the neatness and style of your sig, but I'm not too fond of the colors. How exactly did you get yours? I was hoping for one that would coincide with the Wiki project I'm planning on starting, hopefully using a combination of different shades of purples. Any help would be highly appreciated. Kyla Meserve 05:51, April 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Moncho's sig can be found at User:Monchoman45/SigReal. If you copy the code and follow the instructions, you can change the colors of it. The color will either be listed in hex formation as #000000 for blac or as just the word black.--
 * I gave it a shot, but the silly timestamps won't work on it. I followed his instructions exactly, and I got this: Unfortunately no timestamps with just the 3 tildes...  06:36, April 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Wait! I think I found the coding issue. I looked at some of the other similar ones to his, and I found a discrepancy. YAY!
 * Yep, for some yet undetermined reason, the parameter will occasionally not copy correctly. Probably just a parsing error or something.

Wikia theme :
I might sound childish : but this is the first time I actually used a common wikia css : I've copied the code from somewhere else, but I (later) developed it myself : w:c:roranoazorotest ( please tell me how it is , if possible gimme any new ideas that can be use to develop the theme/skin (or whatever u call ) ).


 * Thanks ! 10:40, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

Remove Facebook
Is there some code that can remove the Facebook Like at the top of every page? I really hate this. -Hockeyben 16:21, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

.likes { display: none; } --

You should add this to the blog, Moncho.-Hockeyben 20:44, April 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Agreed.

Broken ?
The background color for the articles and the "read more" to be removed at the top of the articles don't work anymore. Can you tell me why? An admin changed stuff without asking, but reverting didn't do the trick. Why?... Here. As usual, thanks for your precious help! Klow 23:22, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * More than likely it is from the javascript function in your CSS I asked you to remove in the other thread. Rappy 23:41, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Rappy's right - there's a JS function in your Wikia.css. It's right above the line that removes the read more in the header; you can find it easily by ctrl+f'ing for.
 * Fixed, I don't know what happened. Thanks Monchoman45 for giving a clear answer (it's all I needed). "Read more" was broken, but not to function that brings the "File:" prefix in the files, which was causing the issue. But I didn't put it in the JS file where it should be, but "File:" appears regardless. How come?... Klow 00:59, April 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * The code is already in Common.js - putting it in CSS was probably just a mistake.
 * Whoops. Ok. And how do I bring back the prefix for categories, templates, etc.? Klow 00:14, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Use this instead of what I gave you before:

 function NamespacesInHeader { if(wgCanonicalNamespace != '' && wgCanonicalNamespace != 'Talk') { $('#WikiaPageHeader h1').html(wgFormattedNamespaces[wgNamespaceNumber] + ':' + $('#WikiaPageHeader h1').html); } }

addOnloadHook(NamespacesInHeader);
 * That may or may not mess up talk pages, so tell me what happens.
 * That works fine, but yeah unfortunately is messes up talk pages. I have things like "Category talk:Talk:". Klow 08:19, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

(reset indent) Try... $(function NamespacesInHeader {	if(wgCanonicalNamespace != '' && wgCanonicalNamespace != 'Talk') {		$('#WikiaPageHeader h1').html(wgFormattedNamespaces[wgNamespaceNumber] + ':' + wgTitle);	} }); ... instead. You won't get the bolded Talk: anymore, but this fits the bill. Honestly, we could probably try something with checking if the namespace is odd to bold the prefix too if you want the bold there. Rappy 10:55, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's perfect. :) Klow 19:53, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

"Format" layout blanking or disabling
Don't you know how to remove or blank "format" layout (&useLayout=1)? I've tried to set submitUrl of "format" layout to ?title=$1&action=edit in addOnloadHook function, but when I open the "add a page" dialog, it overrides existing parameters (there is no even CreatePage.format.options array before opening the dialog), onload of the dialog doesn't work too. SiPlus 12:39, April 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't do much with the LayoutBuilder, mostly because it forces RTE and the RTE is a burden. If you link to a page, I may be able to help.


 * PLB was written so that pages could only be edited within the LB. I haven't tested, but you're not supposed to be able to 'source' edit these pages. Rappy 21:25, April 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't talk about Layout Builder. There is standard layout with placeholder image and the text like "write your article text here." It can be replaced with sysop's own text, but when the message gets blanked, it returns to the standard placeholder. Any way to avoid it or make it primary in the dialog? I set "display:none" to the text "please choose a proper layout" and to the layout selection itself, so it's not possible for users to choose blank layout, while standard layout takes time to be blanked. SiPlus 08:28, April 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Still not really sure what you want. Do you want MediaWiki:Newarticle text to be the default text on every article, or do you want it to not be selectable?


 * I want to make it not be selectable. I can just block article creation dialog, but it contains some useful information. SiPlus 07:44, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * Try . That should hide it.

Customizing galleries
So, let's say that we forget about "heights", how customizable can the galleries be? For instance, is it possible to determinate the "widths" in CSS instead? Second, is it possible to have some sort of frames around each image, like seen on Wikipedia, even a big frame around the whole gallery? Just some grey around them would do. See what I mean? And third, reduced the text size of caption in galleries, and any other image. Cheers. Klow 20:01, April 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * You can do all of that with CSS globally. Might be able to rig something to get the heights to work, but you'd probably have to put everything in a template.
 * So, how should I start?... Isn't it possible to do something like a ? Klow 21:52, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Probably, but I've never tried it. Try it and then link to the page, I'll see if I can figure out where the rules should go to get that stuff done.
 * You mean give you an example of an article with a gallery in my wiki?... Klow 23:11, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Turns out you can't add a class to galleries, because they already have 9001 random classes attached to them. But it should still be fairly simple to change things for every gallery on the site.
 * How? Can you give me an example of how to implement an overall bg color, for instance? Klow 11:46, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * should do the border and the background, or just the background if you want. The border for the whole gallery would be, and you could do a background for that too if you wanted.
 * ".wikia-gallery" gives no results. ".accent" works, but the background color doesn't... Klow 18:22, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

(reset indent) Can you give an example of what area of the gallery you are trying to change? That may better help us give you the class or ID to change it. Rappy 18:41, April 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * It seems you already have  set for a background color. Trying to change that with   is the same setting. I'd suggest removing .accept for the image wrapper as it's slightly more 'descriptive.' Also,   should work for adding a border around the whole gallery, but that div is 100% and won't conform to the size of your gallery... so it may not be what you want/need/intend.

Sig
Can you help me with copying your sig? Can you look here and get the Combat Arms Wiki link to work? and hopefully the time signature thing? Hope this isnt too much trouble. Thank you :D
 * Done. It should work now.

How Do You Make A Forum
How do you make a forum? Rokuguy 12:58, April 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's complicated to explain, so you should just read Help:Wiki-style forums. You already have two forums preloaded on your wiki, though, so you can use those if you'd like.

What do you mean by my Wiki? Rokuguy 13:04, April 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * The wiki you're putting the forums on. All wikis have 2 forums on them by default, so whatever wiki you were going to put forums on already has 2 on it if you want to use those, however some people like having more forums, or renaming their forums.

What if someone already used those forums? Rokuguy 13:24, April 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * You can still delete them or rename them, as long as you redirect the header template.

Template Signature Without Changing On All Wikis?
'Oi, Moncho. It's Nightfern. I decided to change back to my template sig, since I can't make certain ones fit in the custom signature box. I'm on 20 wikis, and I did it your way- Do I need to go and update and do every single one? Or is there a way so it's linked to all wikis? Thanks, 01:22,4/23/2011


 * You have to put it on every wiki, I'm afraid - but you can use subst: to help you out. Create each page with, and it should create the page with everything you want.
 * Oh that's not cool. Grr. So, on every wiki, make 2 pages and add that code? And when I change it on one wiki... It will change it everywhere else? *hopefully* So unfair. 01:32,4/23/2011 01:32, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Nope, if you change it on one wiki, you have to change it on every other wiki too. I suggest you try it on one wiki, get colors you really like, and then copy it over.
 * Omigod I'm going to complain... I actually might contact Wikia. :P Totally uncool. I change signatures for every holiday... grr. 01:37,4/23/2011 01:37, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * I actually asked this once, but It's not possible 'cause we dont have different settings for different wikis ( I mean a single preference for all the wikis ) ... If there's a solution , please tell me too :)
