User blog:DaNASCAT/Technical Update: September 25, 2012

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. Also note that we change hundreds of tiny details every week, so these are just the highlights.

Major Bugs Fixed

 * RecentChanges will no longer time out when a large number of blog comments would be listed. If you notice issues with RecentChanges taking a long time to load after Wednesday, please send a report to Special:Contact.
 * Importing profile information from Facebook will now gather all of the requested data.

Other Notable Changes

 * On wikis with the Related Videos module, the last item listed in that module will now be a "See all videos" option linking to the Videos category page.
 * Previously, we added a change to not load JavaScript on edit pages when editing Wikia.js/Monobook.js/Common.js, so that users can fix errors in their code that would otherwise stop the editor from loading. This has now been extended to a user's global.js/wikia.js/monobook.js/common.js.

Select Known Issues

 * Some lightboxes are showing up incorrectly positioned.
 * Some users are experiencing a longer than usual pause, or freezing, when right-clicking anywhere on a page. If this affects you, please turn off the "Edit sections by right clicking on section titles" under the Edit tab in your preferences.
