User blog:DaNASCAT/Technical Update: January 3, 2012

And.... we're back!

Here are the latest technical updates at Wikia. Keep in mind that our system updates happen every Wednesday, so we’re posting this on a Tuesday to give you advance notice.

This week's update is a bit light because of the holidays, but we'll be back in full force next week.

Major Bugs Fixed

 * We're releasing some fixes to our new Mobile skin to remove some instances of overlapping content, and make it easier to view tables that are too wide for a screen. There may be some caching issues for the first 48 hours after this release, but they'll clear up if you purge the page. (To purge a page, just add ?action=purge to the end of any URL).
 * Links to article and blog comments in Special:WikiActivity were not leading the user directly to the comment, instead to the top of the page the comment was on.

Select Known Issues

 * Layouts created using PageLayoutBuilder can not be deleted, protected, or unprotected at this time.
