Perplex City Wiki Discussion Section

As this is a discussion page for the setup and layout of the Wiki, i've set up this page on here instead of the forums. Regular users of the Wiki should be able to join in the discussion on topics which affect the wiki.


Possible Layout Changes

Someone has also designed a "community banner" which has a drop-down menu leading to all the main important links, and I would like to see that on here, if it's possible. I am sorry all of this had to happen at the same time :\ Lhall 23:45, 30 April 2006 (EDT)

Edited New site, new look, new comments here. Do we want any other changes to this site to be considered? Scott 09:45, 2 May 2006 (PDT)

Posted this on another page, but I think we should add a link to Perplex City to the "new to perplex city?" box on the sidebar. PerplexHero 18:25, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Moving and stuff

I added to sysop, bureaucrat, developer to User:BrianEnigma. may not need it all so much, but could be handy. Makes sense. If hes gonna be our host, he should have access to this stuff.

  • sysop - gives you editing power on locked pages, the ability to make new users, and other little stuff. Basically it's the gold key access.
  • bureaucrat - means you can change privs of other people as well.
  • developer - I'm not entirely sure what this does, but presumably gives greater access to backpanel controls, so you can easily change the look and fFeel of things, one assumes.

In case you were wondering, there is also a "bot" priv which make users bots. hey hey :) I'm not entirely sure what the subtleties of that are, actually. presumably you can make a user a bot, and their edits are fFlagged a bit differently, fFor better or worse as you see fFit. make scripts fFor rapid edits of stuff, or red-flag annoying users. either way. we have no bots.  :)


MediaWiki:Sidebar

err .. where'd it go? I mean the article is there and it seems to be fFine .. but the actual sidebar seems to have reverted to something dark and twisted. What gives? any clues? I'm a bit stumped, to be honest. I could've sworn it was there like this morning or something. maybe i'm dumb? maybe i'm special? hmmmm ... Scott 15:43, 4 May 2006 (PDT)

Hrm...I saw it earlier, too. Bri? Lhall 07:25, 5 May 2006 (PDT)

.....And as mysteriously as it went away, it just now came back. I have no idea. Scott 11:02, 5 May 2006 (PDT)

...I have caching enabled in the Wiki server preferences, so if a page is cached before the sidebar gets defined/edited, then the changes won't necessarily appear on a given page until after it is edited again. It may have been something funny with the migration that "fixed itself" upon page editing...? BrianEnigma 21:41, 31 May 2006 (PDT)
