== Favicon == | |||
Joe... I'm not sure when you did it, but the new favicon appears... garbled in my Firefox. I think it's because of the image scaling. I'm guessing that it's just the logo shrunk down way. Personally, I think such a small picture should be MUCH simpler. Just thought I'd weigh in on that. I'm not demanding a change or anything, just piping up. --[[User:Day|Day]] <sup>([[User talk:Day|Talk]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|Admin]])</sup> 00:27, 14 May 2006 (CDT) | |||
: | ==Email Validation (2)== | ||
Earlier i posted to your [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.#Email validation|talk page about the problems]] I was having with email validation. Well I kinda forgot about it for a while but the issue has cropped up again now I am an administrator of thw wiki. I posted more details about it to the [[Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard#Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|Admins noticeboard]]. The email address that i am trying to validate is '''mattsims'''''@evilmerc.com'' Cheers --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 15:08, 1 July 2006 (CDT) | |||
:Maybe some experimentation could be done over at the hangarbay to try to troubleshoot this? --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 12:19, 6 July 2006 (CDT) | |||
::I didnt get an email from the hangarbay wiki either. Possibly a problem with the way its set up on the server? --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 07:51, 10 July 2006 (CDT) | |||
== Subpages + Bot == | |||
:: | Well.. I noticed something. Subpages for the '''User''', '''Battlestar Wiki talk''', and possaible some other namespaces. Maybe just turn them all on so it works as used. See [[Battlestar Wiki:Sandbox/Temp]] and [[Battlestar Wiki:Sandbox/Temp/Temp1]] for examples. I can also work on the task bot if Perl is complied into PHP. --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 14:15, 25 July 2006 (CDT) | ||

Joe, can you try running the bot. Wondering if you get the same error I get. --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 14:27, 11 August 2006 (CDT) | |||

== Good News/Bad News == | |||
: I | Doing some work on the [[MediaWiki talk:Edittools]] markup, I was trying to figure out why the markup was always driving us crazy. It was because of the current skin js code. So let me break this down more... | ||
* Good News: The javascript code barily works with 1.7.1 | |||
* Bad News: For it to get fully working correctly, one of the classic skins needs to be enabled. | |||
So... I'm a digging in the hangerbay and working on my CSS code and update the Hangerbay with 1.7.1 and also fix up my two skins with the new javascript. That's about it. :-) --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 14:32, 3 August 2006 (CDT) | |||
: | :Also need a quick run on the <code>maintenance/update.php</code> on the hangerbay so it's to date with 1.7.1 | ||

: | ==Domain Registrar== | ||
: | The domain registrar I use is [http://www.namecheap.com www.namecheap.com] and it $8.88 per domain per year. You can also pay via paypal. I am still in discussions with some people about hosting but I think that I can definitly save the wiki hundreds off the bill. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 02:45, 14 August 2006 (CDT) | ||

::::They said that it "is because your DNS zone is hosted on our name servers and when you add subdomains, those subdomain cannot be added to our nameservers. We've configured your DNS zone to resolve all subdomains to [IP address], it should fix this problem." So hopefully once everything propagates, it should work. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 11:39, 16 August 2006 (CDT) | |||

::::Yes, I just woke up from my nap. Anyway, I fixed what happened. Apparently, it had to do with the nameservers I was using; I was using 1and1s nameservers (because I host my domains through 1and1, not AceWebHosting, which hosts BSG Wiki) and had to create a Glue Domain using the nameservers ns1.battlestarwiki.org and ns2.battlestarwiki.org. Fortunatley, it now works and I just have to go through .htaccess and see what's up. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 14:56, 18 August 2006 (CDT) | |||
