Forum:Wikia Answers Sidebar Question

Hey, I wasn't informed about the removal of the Wikia Anwers sidebar on our wiki, and I was wondering if it is going to come back, or we can do something for the wiki to set it to show up to be default to the viewers. Are there also any reason for the removal? Maku! Here is my talkpage 17:56, July 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Please give a link to your wiki. Also, Wikia generally doesn't inform sub Answers admins when they are going to change something.
 * If you are talking about the Answers widget on the sidebar, they now appear only to be enabled on French wikis for some bizarre reason. See Help:Wikianswers widget. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 5:05 PM PST 16 Jul 2010

The Monster Hunter Wiki.

Yes, I was referring to the Answers wiki widget, and I wonder if we can have it back there for viewers by default. The Answers widget had alot of use for some users with their quick Monster Hunter questions that we can answer. If so, tell me the instructions if its possible. Maku!

 * Since Wikia took it away, you need to ask them to put it back. I couldn't find any help for controlling the site-wide default selection of widgets, but maybe someone else knows.
 * So I would think w:c:monsterhunter:Special:Contact is your best bet. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 3:48 PM PST 17 Jul 2010


 * There isn't currently an option to enable the Wikianswers widget except for French language wikis. I'm sorry, but it's not likely that this feature will be returning. Angela (talk | help forum) 14:26, July 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Why is it unlikely to return? And why is it that it can work on French wikis but not on others? Some kind of explanation for this would be appreciated. Thanks, 14:40, July 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * On Wikianswers, we have been removing items that are not heavily used in order to simplify the site and focus attention on the features that help the most. As the French Answers sites aren't as developed yet as some others, an exception was made temporarily for those. Angela (talk | help forum) 07:17, July 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the explanation. 19:33, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
