talk, about... whatever really.

Sys-Op

If you decide to help out the site a lot, this will help. -- JC the Builder 10:29, 15 November 2006 (PST)

Extensions

I have been looking into MediaWiki extensions and added what seems to be the most popular ParserFunctions. I also added the Cite extension. If you know of anymore that can prove useful let me know and I will install them. -- JC the Builder 19:19, 4 December 2006 (PST)

Inuwiki Collaboration

I have worked out a collaboration with the Inuwiki in which their pages are being moved over. Some may not be formatted in the best way, but I think it is better to leave them as is and expand them when ready rather then delete them. - JC the Builder 09:54, 23 January 2007 (PST)

Colors etcetera

Why thx u, sir. That brings me one step closer to having a fully-functional tooltip-style template for items. Speaking of which: any ideas on fixing the final problem I'm having with Template:Testing would be much appreciated. I did Alchemist's Bauble and Nox Ranger's Heavy Crossbow manually for now because of the one remaining problem with Template:Testing: namely that on my conditional wiki item properties, even if you don't use one, instead of the property not being there entirely, it pushes in a 1px high horizontal bar of black where it would go. So when you have, say, 50 properties that aren't on a particular item, you end up with a 50px high wall of black stuffed in the middle of the tooltip. Any ideas? --Cogniac 14:49, 6 August 2007 (PDT)

Template:Testing

Thanks. It actually functions without having five pages of solid black now. I messed with it a bit to get it to look exactly like I want and added some more properties to play with. Only two problems I'm having: can't figure out how to make it not float, because with float, it ends up looking like it does on Nox Ranger's Heavy Crossbow. If I take out the float property, it spreads out to fill the entire width of the screen. Just want it to be a normal list on the screen, like the hard-coded version I have on Alchemist's Bauble right now. The other issue I'm having is with the handedweapon item property (I.E. "One-Handed Weapon" "Two-Handed Weapon"). The part where it doesn't appear if its blank works, but I want it so if you put in a value of 1 it shows "One-Handed Weapon" and if you put in a value of 2 it shows "Two-Handed Weapon". Tried to make it only show "Two-Handed Weapon" for a value of 2 and then show "One-Handed Weapon" for any other value, but that didn't work out, either. If that can be got to work somehow, I can probably end up using the same format for a few other item properties. --Cogniac 18:06, 7 August 2007 (PDT)

Okay. Just now saw that {{clr}} thing. Working with some ways to incorporate it directly into the template. Consensus seems to say that your clear:both; thing is the best option, but I can't seem to get that specific fix to work properly from within the Testing template quite yet. Working with other options for the time being. The handedweapon= property problem stands, though. --Cogniac 21:48, 7 August 2007 (PDT)

Okay. Yeah. I was being dumb. Float thing is 100% fixed now. So, just the handedweapon property problem. --Cogniac 21:55, 7 August 2007 (PDT)

Scratch the handedweapon property problem. I managed to make it work with some nested #ifexpr: parser functions. So I guess you could delete this entire section of your talk page if you like, because it all turned out to be pointless questions. My bad. --Cogniac 17:35, 8 August 2007 (PDT)

That new template is looking good. - JC the Builder 19:09, 8 August 2007 (PDT)
