Forum:Wiki is slow?

Something's wrong with our wiki, Simlympics Wiki. The image I reupload into a new version two days ago still won't change.. and the "collapsible collapse" table doesn't work.. In short, it takes a heck of a while, if it does happen at all, for the wiki to update itself. --Dizflip 18:09, October 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * Sometimes images you re-upload won't show up for you immediately. Have you tried clearing your cache? - Brandon Rhea (talk) 18:10, October 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, it's been 3 days. How to clear cache? --Dizflip 18:25, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

What browser do you use? - Brandon Rhea (talk) 18:27, October 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * Internet Explorer. Question though, does clearing my cache fix the other problem with the table not collapsing? --Dizflip 18:31, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

Your table isn't collapsing because you don't have any JS telling it to. Add the following line into your MediaWiki:Common.js:


 * For the image, I assume you mean the one in the top right corner of your main page, that one is appearing without a background as your edit summary said it should be so I'll assume it's correct. Sometimes browsers like to cache things really badly (IE isn't nice) so you have to clear your cache to get the current stuff on a page (hold down the Ctrl key and click the Refresh or Reload button, or press Ctrl+F5. ) ~Joey~   ^Talk^  19:44, October 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but how exactly do you add what you provided in MediaWiki:Common.js? Also, the image problem has been solved. --Dizflip 20:09, October 11, 2009 (UTC)


 * w:c:simlympics:MediaWiki:Common.js - Add  to that page then clear your cache again.  ~Joey~   ^Talk^  20:15, October 11, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks all! It worked perfectly! --Dizflip 01:17, October 12, 2009 (UTC)
