I've been messing around with the CSS to change what the Wikiabar/toolbar looks like recently, and the only problem I've had so far has been with changing the text color for certain tool links.

#WikiaBarWrapper .toolbar, #WikiaBarWrapper a:link, #PortableCSSPad-wikialoader-link {
	color: Gold
}

This code was able to change the color for most of the text and icons, but the text for Random, Admin, Reported, and Mass Protect remains.

I'm unable to use developer tools (inspect element) on the device I'm using, but I have been able to find CSS selectors using uBlock Origin (because selecting to block an element brings up a menu displaying said element's CSS selector) and viewing the page HTML (Ctrl+U).

I'm unable to find the selector at all for Mass Protect, due to the page source not showing anything related to it at all, and uBlock Origin being unable to select elements only displaying on hover.

Selecting the other links with uBlock Origin brings up [href] selectors, which aren't working to change the color. (I am, however, able to do other stuff with said selector, like display: none.)

I feel like there's a simple explanation passing over my head, but any help?

On the Bravelands Wiki, I'm rehauling an infobox placed on articles containing details of specific chapters. We're putting images in the infobox which correspond with whichever POV the chapter is in.

Each graphic is going to be named consistently as POVName graphic, where POVName is replaced with the name of the character whose POV the graphic is used for, e.g., Thorn graphic, and each image will be a PNG (Thorn graphic.png).

A parameter of the portable infobox is already point of view (might change it to POV), so I was wondering if it was possible to get the template to retrieve the text used within with that parameter and put it into something followed by graphic.png so it could automatically fill in the image part without needing users to input a specific parameter for the image.

I'd tried something like <default>{{{point of view}}} graphic.png</default> within the <image> tag like so:

<image source="image1">
	<image source="image1">
		<default>{{{point of view}}} graphic.png</default> 	
	</image>

This didn't work, however. Did I do something wrong, or is it just not easily possible within portable infoboxes?

I'm trying to search for something like [[PageName|DisplayText]], where I use the article name and display text for an internal link — I want to see if creating redirect pages from DisplayText to PageName will be productive by finding out how often [[PageName|DisplayText]] is used within the whole wiki.

I've tried using advanced Google search markup, like "[[PageName|DisplatText]]" site:wiki.fandom.com, which should search for [[PageName|DisplayText]] in any site with that domain, but it doesn't seem to have worked. (I think the vertical line "|" and/or square brackets interfere with the search markup somehow. (If there aren't any results for the search, it says so, but it just brought up pages as if I hadn't used the markup (or as if there were results), and none of them had the searched-for code in them.))

Is there a way, through a Dev Wiki script or not, that would allow me to search for exact matches of wikitext source code within all of a wiki's articles at once?

Thank you in advance!

Hello, Bloodfrost here.

On the Wings of Fire Fanon, I've created a template (in a user subpage namespace (User:Nixoli/Infobox, Nixoli being the account I use to host subpage templates because of the short name)) for a custom infobox not using the portable infobox code.

This is the content within the <onlyinclude> tags:

I've recently added the #if parser functions so that if a label is left blank, the whole label's row disappears. This works almost perfectly, except it seems to stull leave gaps. For example, this is the output if all labels are left blank:

I've removed a bunch of whitespace and newlines, but to no avail. Removing the newlines before {{#if seemed to work when looking at the default output (all blank), but it broke the template completely when the template actually had set outputs.

Is there a way to remove this blank space when parameters are not set?

Thank you in advance!
