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?

It won't let me create a page. Is my account too new?

In an attempt to clean up the special pages on the Obey Me! wiki, I've deleted a bunch of images that were uploaded for use within old user comments. This then caused said image files to show up on the "wanted files" page, so the comments themselves were either edited to remove the image link or deleted entirely.

All of this was done some time ago, with some deletions being many weeks back, but the files are still being listed with (1 link). Checking the link just leads to the deleted comment, so why do these files remain?

As an example, here is one such deleted comment: https://obey-me.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Lyrindel/Color_correction?commentId=4400000000000004881

And yet files that link to this comment, such as "File:Asm org.png", still list this deleted comment as a page where the file is in use.

Hello!

I’ve been looking at the quote template from the Dev Wiki and I really like it—I’m close to implementing it on another wiki. But the reason I haven’t pulled the trigger is because it’s missing the ability to display images to the left of the text, which is a feature our old quote template has that everyone I’ve talked to (myself included) is reluctant to let go of.

That means the only option now is to copy over the Dev Wiki template onto our wiki and edit its inner workings. The problem is that the template is written in Lua, and neither I nor anyone else at our wiki have much experience in that language. I do intend to get familiar with Lua at some point in the future, but I believe my efforts at the wiki are better suited elsewhere at the moment.

So I’m hoping that someone here will be able to provide the necessary modifications to the Dev Wiki template. Here are my requests:

• Add the ability to display an image to the left of the quote text, of course. The image is expected to be square for profile pictures, so you don’t have to worry about inconsistent dimensions.

• Image width and height should be locked to 60px.

• If an image is not provided, the quote template should behave as it does now.

• Extra polish: Crop the image into a circle (if possible) and add a 2px border. The color of the border should be the same as the color used in the template’s quote mark.

Many thanks for your help.

Hi, I'm new to being an admin and I accidentally disabled comments on an article. I've been trying to re-enable them again but I can't seem to figure out how. I've gone to the help pages concerning protection and comments but I've yet to re-enable them.

When I try to reply on some wikis it lets me on others it says "Saving reply failed"?? I thought it was because I didn't confirm my email and so I did.. It still wasn't working and I've already ran out of ideas. Any solutions?

Hello,

I am an admin on the Power Rangers Fanon Wiki and the Kamen Rider Fan Fiction Wiki and I recently switched over to the FandomDesktop to get more used to it and I noticed that our green admin links are not showing on the FandomDesktop version.

On Power Rangers Fanon, our default link colour is blue and that is also showing for admins, as oppose to the standard green link. On Kamen Rider Fan Fiction, links are green but the admin links would normally be a bit of a darker green.

When I switch back to Oasis, they show as they would normally.

I'm just wondering if this is an known issue for FandomDesktop and if other Wikis are also experiencing the problem?

So is it possible to do math operations with the edit count?

FYI, the edit count refers to {{Special:Editcount/Username}}, the number of edits on a wiki for a specific user. So say for example if I've made 351 edits here then {{Special:Editcount/Username}} should return 351 for me.

What I want to do is to do operations with this edit number. Meaning I want to add, subtract, do comparisons etc. with this number.

I've tried {{#expr before, but it doesn't seem to work. String-related functions don't seem to work either. The text below keeps appearing.

Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "".

Help is much appreciated.

Best regards,

Doz

So how can I change the color of a link and display it everywhere in the wiki? Is there some code for that? Thank you if you can answer my question.

Just this morning, a 350px-ish sized blank space appeared between the top menu and page content of dustjackets.fandom.com and the-rookie.fandom.com, both of which I admin. When I used the code inspector, I noticed the word "ad" in the code, so I turned off AdBlocker Ultimate and refreshed the page, and it turns out that space contains a HUGE banner ad.

I've been using AdBlocker Ultimate with Firefox for a long time, but this is the first issue I've seen with it on Fandom. Is there a way to eliminate that large space regardless of content? If not, I will re-enable AdBlocker Ultimate and put up with it. It only seems to affect the home page, not the rest of the content pages. Thanks for any insight you can offer.

So I've been trying to implement some tables to pages on the Juke's Towers of Hell Wiki.

I want the table to be collapsible for consistency, but it collapses in a way which interferes with the text of the top cell.

When collapsed, it should normally take up all of the horizontal width that it can, but it doesn't? I've been trying to fix this but can't find a solution.

The page in question is here, and the code for the full table is given below.

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible" style="text-align:center;"
! colspan="3" style="text-align:center; width: 100%; background-color: #337800" | Possibly A Tower Soundtrack
|-
!Floor
!Music
!File
|-
|Floors 1-5
|Jack Stauber - Dead Weight (Earthbound/Chiptune Cover)
|[[File:Dead Weight.mp3]]
|}

For some reason, my userpage looks like this.

Is this normal?

When I'm converting the gallery tabs (on infobox) from Oasis to Fandomdesktop, the tabs seem to lose its "flex" like feature. It used to be able to display 3+ tabs per row (eg: Sirenix), and if it's crowded, it should be like 2 tabs on 1st row and 2 tabs on 2nd row. But now most of galleries only have like 3 tabs and they are displayed in a scroll-like method (eg: Roxy). Is there a way to restore that flex-like feature on Fandomdesktop?

Also, previously, on the last data label of each group (on the infobox), there is a bottom border right beneath that last label. But once switched to Fandomdesktop, it's gone, leaving a weird-looking blank space between the last data label and the header of next group (that blank space wouldn't be odd if the bottom border is still visible). I wish to have the border appear again.

This is the current CSS for the infobox and this is the CSS I'm working on for Fandomdesktop. Thank you all for your help.

I changed the design of a wiki using the Theme Designer (with Fandom Desktop skin), and for some reason ALL links are now blue, as per "Link color" field in the designer, including the links to new pages, which should be red. This was NOT an issue when I freshly switched to the new skin, only after I used the theme designer (I believe), and I didn't even mess with the link color setting to start with.

• Reverting to a previous version of the design doesn't help.

• Attempting to change them with CSS is not possible since the "a" tag no longer has a "class" property that can be used in the Fandom Desktop skin.

How can I get the default red color for new links back?

Edit: it looks like this is a bug that has nothing to do with my actions with the Theme Designer. The staff is aware of it and (hopefully) working on it.

Hello,

I'm trying to code my wiki but I am pretty clueless and I would really appreciate some assistance with it.

1. How do I change my text's font and colour? I looked around to try and find a button for it in the Visual Editor but there's nothing.

2. What does the following code mean? Are there any other commands I can use to format text?

3. How do I create a textbox like the one shown below?

4. How do I create custom cursors?

5. How do I create buttons such as the one below?

Advice on these matters would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Is it possible to run a python script inside a wiki? I have no idea how that would work but I need to run a script that searches tweets and I don't know Java.
