Disable my redirect to Wiki Activity
What is this? I see it in my preferences and it's checked, but I have no idea what it does. A quick search here and on Google didn't turn anything up. Someone who knows should describe it here (on the help page). - dcljr (talk) 09:28, December 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi, When you visit a wiki, you are automatically redirected to the wiki activity page, rather than the main page. Unchecking that box leads you to just go to the main page. --Sarah (help forum | blog) 16:44, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

No access to preferences
Strange, I can't access my preferences despite being logged in. My name doesn't appear on the top right and so there is no drop-down menue I could enter to change any of my preference. Maybe it's because for a few days I have to use an operating system (Windows ME) or could it be browser?--Mr Mancala 07:18, August 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi, I just checked your account and was able to get to preferences. What browser are you on? Can you post a screenshot? Thanks, --Sarah (help forum | blog) 16:44, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Create a new article flow
Why is "Disable 'Create a new article' flow" not recommended? - Citrusellaeditswikis (talk) 01:21, February 19, 2014 (UTC)

Recent activity
On the recent activity page of a Wikia, no matter what I try to do, recent messages left on other user's pages are always dated "an hour ago" or "2 hours ago", even if it's brand new, I never see it as "1 minute ago" or "5 minutes ago". Is it suppose to be like this? TheShockBox 02:11, August 13, 2014 (UTC)
