Double toolbar patch
Hi!. As you know, on MW1.12 wikias, on Monobook there's a double edit toolbar. I don't know when it will get fixed (as it isn't an emergency) but if you think is good, there's a code that can be put in MediaWiki:Global.js to patch it until it gets fixed. It also prevents the MiniUpload button to appear, since it's broken. If no, there's no problem, I'll put it in the forum so individual wikis could patch it if they want, just wanted to have a more global solution and the patch could be removed also globally when gets fixed. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 20:14, 7 January 2008 (UTC)


 * This has now been fixed. Angela (talk)


 * I'm afraid no. Look for example. The function that adds the toolbar (mwSetupToolbar) is called twice when the page loads, using hookEvent("load", mwSetupToolbar);, the first here and the second here, so the buttons are added twice. In fact, seems that all the code in wikibits.js is repeated in allinone.js, so this is just one visible the problems -there are others, yes. I'd done a hard reload of the page, in firefox and internet explorer.


 * Oh, and this happens only in monobook, but my patch works well for any skin, because in case that there's no toolbar (exactly less than 5 images in the toolbar, because somebody (like me) could had added some buttons "by hand", I put 5 as example) 2 seconds after the load finishes, it calls the mwSetupToolbar to set it up. So the patch should be put inside an if (skin!=monobook) or something. Note that I put the patch in Common.js, so you can test that the toolbar still appears in other skins. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 18:44, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Search
Also, after some chat with the community on #searchwikia and the approval from Jimbo, it would be best that ConfirmEdit for new external links be added to search.wikia to help filter spambots from real people creating mini articles. If you would find some time to turn that on.

Thanks a lot! :) -- 07:46, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

RE: OggHandler
I'm afraid that the example use of OggHandler here doesn't seem to work. - Greenpickle(talk)

It still doesn't work. I know my computer has the appropriate plugins, as it works for me at Wikipedia. The error given is  Not allowed http://images.wikia.com/genealogy/images/b/b1/%27s_Kitchen1.2.ogg , so there must be some installation error. - Greenpickle(talk)


 * If I may add here, IE 7, as well as Firefox, with Windows Vista and the Quicktime player that is installable from the link, works superbly. However, the advised Java player still gives the same message as Greenpickle mentioned.--Prezintenden(talk) 14:43, 10 January 2008 (UTC)


 * If it is only the java player causing problems, would making one of the other players the default help? Angela (talk) 12:29, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Fixed. Pls come back and check if it works for you. -- Nef (talk) 13:39, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

IRC cloak request
Hi Angela! I am Tomsen on freenode and I would like the cloak wikia/tomsen. Greetings Tomsen (talk) 13:37, 13 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I've asked seanw for this, but he's offline right now. Let me know in a couple of days if you still don't have a cloak. Angela (talk) 04:22, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: Christian Music forums not working
Support for the favicon will be added soon. The music forum is working for me. Can you see this post? I've asked the tech team to make the forum name changes since the interface to edit these directly on the wiki seems to have stopped working. Angela (talk) 12:24, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * No. Just a similar message.  I see the forum in the forum list again, but it doesn't work as before.  As for favicons, many pages at ChristianMusic use the default W icon.
