Hello,
While messaging another user (on my wiki which is UCP-migrated) I noticed that basic wikitext functions, like <nowiki> or [[linking]] no longer work on my wiki. Is there a way to re-enable these functions on message walls?

Bruh that is very disappointing. hopefully they change them soon, my wiki used to use templates and such on message walls for community things but none of them function properly now.
I sent a notice about the bug to staff using the usual reporting system, hopefully it will be fixed soon!
It works great, thank you

This is an example of the white highlighting for anyone reading this after.
Ill be sure to report it to staff, thanks
Hello,
My wiki recently migrated to UCP and I've noticed some differences between our old appearances and the new. One of these is the highlighting of a reference, that is, when the [#] is clicked and it links one down to where the reference is shown. They now are entirely highlighted in white, and my wiki is a dark theme with white text letters, so the reference is unreadable. I was wondering if there was a way to change this reference highlight color, or remove it entirely.
Here are some screenshots explaining what I mean. The first is a normal reference appearance, and the second is what happens when the reference is clicked.

I'll check out the contact us, thanks to both of you!
Hello,
My wiki recently migrated to UCP and I noticed that a template utilizing Special:Editcount has stopped working.
Previously, the template would display a user's edits in each type of edit category, but now they are all redlinks. I would like to know how to display a user's edit count in different categories in the new UCP system.
For reference, this is how the template appears [https://i.imgur.com/59kPpfY.png now]. Previously, it would simply have the number of edits for each category type.
[https://clonetrooper.fandom.com/wiki/User:Blyndblitz This] is a link to my userpage if someone would like to see the template in action, scroll to the bottom.
[https://clonetrooper.fandom.com/wiki/Template:Userstats This] is a link to the actual template.
Thanks.
Hello,
As one can see with this page, Wookieepedia has it set up to that some of their general wiki maintenance templates are set off from the actual parts of the page used for reading, and instead off to the side. This picture is what I mean; the templates displaying the page's era/article status are above the edit button and not in the way of the page.
I'd like to implement similar changes onto my wiki, that is, having certain templates appear in this area above the edit button, rather than where they are now. This is an example page from my wiki, and as you can see, the template displaying the article's class is on the readable section of the page itself.
I tried looking into Wookieepedia's code for their templates, and it invokes a module, of which I have no understanding as to how it works. I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight into how one might create a template that displays in that upper corner near the edit button, rather than on the readable sections of a page.
Thanks.

That makes a lot of sense! When I was editing these infoboxes (as I did not make the originals) I was wondering why I'd sometimes see |- vs. |-.
Appreciate the clarification!

Thanks for this! The template works great now. I'll also add the css for future infobox usage. Really appreciate everything!

Is there a way to customize the look of the portable infoboxes? they don't fit the theme/look of my wiki
(edited by Blyndblitz)
Hi, I'm currently trying to make an infobox on my wiki where a title/header section will appear only if something is written for its parameter.
The intended goal is for it to look like this when the parameter is not filled out: https://imgur.com/a/vuv9Sl3
And like this when it is filled out ("test" being the fill-in text"):
However, I am having an issue right now where despite having the paramter filled in, the blue bar is not showing up whatsoever. I think it may be an error with my if statement but idk how html/whatever code system this works.
This is the code for the if statement/blue box thing I am attempting:
{{{#if:{{{a|}}}|
|
| colspan="2" style="padding:2px;" |
|-
! colspan="2" style="font-size:100%; padding-top:2px; padding-left:5px; padding-right:5px; background-color:#0000CD; color:white; width:300px;" | Part of the {{{a|}}}
|}}
This is also my test page for the box. As you can see, the parameter
|a = test
is filled out but the blue box does not show up.
I would appreciate any help, thanks.

Unfortunately the border-bottom just doesnt appear, not sure why. I tried making the px like 10 and stuff but still just nothing appears.
I was able to fix the issue by making more {| and changing the cell spacing for those; appreciate all the help nonetheless.

Is there a way to have cell spacing only effect the top and the bottom of cells? I tried setting to a few pixels but it also spaces out the sides of the cells, resulting in a bloated infobox look.

Hello,
Currently I have an infobox setup where the bottom part is divided into two vertical halves, separated by a dotted line. If you look closely, you'll notice that the dotted line overlaps onto the blue part above it.
I was wondering how I could make it so that the dotted line does not overlap, similar to Wikipedia's battle infoboxes. I've tried using padding but it has been to no avail.
Thanks.
