<p>Legodude760: </p> <hr /> <div>Hi ya'll. [[User:Legodude760|Legodude760]] 20:56, 16 January 2008 (PST)<br /> <br /> [[User:The Mad Cacti|The Mad Cacti]]: Hi. That question you just removed from the FAQ about palettes turning sounds like a bug to me (IIRC it was a bug which we thought we fixed). Could you describe how it happened?<br /> <br /> PS: Robot RPG :)<br /> <br /> [[User:Legodude760|Legodude760]]: Well, I made the pallette and used it on the main hero. So then I made an NPC, and tried to use the same palette on him, but all the colors were black, as if I hadn't made the palette. Then I went to the &quot;Edit Heroes&quot; section, and the little guy walking in a square was all black too, until I changed the palette. I think I quit CUSTOM and reloaded it again, and it worked.<br /> <br /> PS: :)</div>

These guys are almost certainly using anonymizers or zombie-proxies... so I dug through the wikimedia source code, and discovered some nice filter options I can enable. We ought to be seeing a lot less wikispam in the future &gt;:)<br /> <br /> [[User:pkmnfrk|Mike:]]<br /> Yay! Filters are good! :P<br /> <br /> [[User:Bob the Hamster|Bob:]]<br /> I just added support for the wiki spammer blacklist at http://chongqed.org/ , which is pretty darn cool.

[http://gilgamesh.hamsterrepublic.com/wiki/ohrrpgce.png] ... It is there. Perhaps your browser?<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': Hmm, you're right... When I go to that URL, it pops-up a message saying &quot;it can't be found&quot;, which is not like other 404 messages... Interesting...<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': D'oh! It shows up again when I clear my cache... and I thought Firefox was perfect... :(<br /> <br /> ==RE: The &quot;Q&amp;A&quot; section==<br /> '''Mike''': Why?<br /> <br /> ==Future Website Plans==<br /> '''Bob''': I love mediawiki. With the addition of the editable sidebar in version 1.5, I think I am now ready to convert the ''entire'' OHRRPGCE website to mediawiki. The first step is to move all the content from http://HamsterRepublic.com/ohrrpgce/ to wiki pages. Some of the more important info, such as the official download links, will be on &quot;protected&quot; pages that only sysops can edit. Then I will replace http://HamsterRepublic.com/ohrrpgce/ with a nightly-updated copy of this wiki, similar to the one at http://mirrors/motherhamster.org/ . That way, people will normally browse the static copy at HamsterRepublic.com but if they click an &quot;edit&quot; link, they will be taken to gilgamesh. That means we get delayed updates (for spam control) distributed redundancy, and better performance (since the static copy at HR will put zero PHP/mysql load on the server)<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': Hmm. Very interesting... I think this is a very good idea.<br /> <br /> ==Editing the Main Page==<br /> '''Bob''': The main page uses some extra spam-filtering rules because it is the most spammed page. Only logged-in users will be able to change it. If you try to edit it when you are not logged in, it will look like it worked, but actually nothing happens.<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': I propose similar rules for the News page, since it's not really a content page the way everything else is. Or, maybe just protecting it would be better.<br /> <br /> ==Screenshots==<br /> Guest: Hi people! Where are the screenshots? Could you add some? Could avoid useless downloads.<br /> <br /> '''TMC:''' Oh.. I miss those screenshots that used to be on the download page. What does everyone think of adding them back? (there's also a screenshot for custom on the HR download page. Speaking of which... James! I think you forgot to update wandering hamster! (or at least, you forgot to update the &quot;last updated&quot; text... and why do wandering hamster on the HR download page and wandering hamster on the HR OHR games list point to different zips?))<br /> <br /> '''Bob''': Yes. We should definitely have a screenshots page, and we should link it from the sidebar. Newcomers will definitely want to see screenshots both of the ditor and some games. (Re: Wandering Hamster, I have not update it at all, and probably will not do so until tirgoviste. The HR downloads page points to the same zip via a symbolic link.)<br /> <br /> '''The Geek''': I concur. The only time I ever download something without seeing screenshots first is if it has come with a very, very high recommendation.<br /> <br /> ==April Fool's==<br /> '''The Geek''': Must... resist... urge... to... make... April Fool's day edit...<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': Damnit, I didn't even think about that. :( :( :(<br /> <br /> ==Categorization==<br /> '''Mike''': I'm thinking that we need to use Namespaces more often. Specifically, we need to use them.<br /> <br /> I was thinking about how to organize the Editor menus and stuff, so I thought &quot;Menu:Edit Graphics&quot; or whatever. Then, I was looking at the [[Sword of Jade]] page that FyreWulff edited earlier, and I thought &quot;Game:Sword of Jade&quot;.<br /> <br /> It's that kind of contextual organization that makes MediaWiki great.<br /> <br /> Edit: James, take a look at [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Configuration_settings#Namespaces The Meta-Wiki page on the configuration file]. Also, could you enable the Sub-pages feature? That would be immensly awesome for stuff like Sword of Jade/Screenshots or Graphics menu/Tileset Editor, for example.<br /> <br /> '''Bob''': I added three new namespaces (with subpages) menu: game: and br:<br /> <br /> ==Lots of changes in the Recent Changes section?==<br /> [[User:The Geek|The Geek]]: What happened?! There's like, 150 changes that MediaWiki made, apparently all to special pages/restricted pages and page titles throughout the wiki aren't working right!<br /> <br /> [[User:Bob the Hamster|Bob the Hamster]] That was me upgrading to MediaWiki version 1.6.3.

<p>Legodude760: /* ya! */ new section</p> <hr /> <div>__NOTOC__<br /> <br /> [[User:pkmnfrk|Mike:]]<br /> Damnit, I hate spammers, don't you?<br /> <br /> [[User:Bob the Hamster|Bob:]]<br /> I banned the IP's of the repeat offenders from last night, but I doubt it will help. These guys are almost certainly using anonymizers or zombie-proxies... so I dug through the wikimedia source code, and discovered some nice filter options I can enable. We ought to be seeing a lot less wikispam in the future &gt;:)<br /> <br /> [[User:pkmnfrk|Mike:]]<br /> Yay! Filters are good! :P<br /> <br /> [[User:Bob the Hamster|Bob:]]<br /> I just added support for the wiki spammer blacklist at http://chongqed.org/ , which is pretty darn cool. Even better than the filters I added the other day (which have been blocking about one spamming every six hours)<br /> <br /> [[User:pkmnfrk|Mike:]] Well, it doesn't stop &quot;I don't know how to use a WIKI&quot; spam...<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==And now for something different==<br /> '''Mike''': Erm, where did Bob go? His picture (which I was just in the process of almost using in an OHR related project) is gone! Gone I say!<br /> <br /> '''Bob''' You mean the picture of Bob in the top left corner of the wiki? [http://gilgamesh.hamsterrepublic.com/wiki/ohrrpgce.png] ... It is there. Perhaps your browser?<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': Hmm, you're right... When I go to that URL, it pops-up a message saying &quot;it can't be found&quot;, which is not like other 404 messages... Interesting...<br /> <br /> '''Mike''': D'oh! It shows up again when I clear my cache... and I thought Firefox was perfect... :(<br /> <br /> ==RE: The &quot;Q&amp;A&quot; section==<br /> '''Mike''': Why?<br /> <br /> ==Future Website Plans==<br /> '''Bob''': I love mediawiki.
