Wiki changes

Starting today (28 Nov 2014) we'll roll out some wiki upgrades and improvements, first mainly back end related but afterwards also new features for editing and such. The whole process might take a while (weeks), there might be disruptions, and worst case loss of a couple of edits.



Starting today a couple of significant and many smaller changes will hit the wiki. This will cause features and styles to be temporarily broken. Some issues might be fixed on the same day others might take longer. But finally we should end up with a better wiki. ;)

 

Alrighty, it's back, a little bit faster, a couple of old issues solved, a couple of new issues introduced.

Currently the main issue is that you need to login on the wiki separately.

Beware, this was just the first round .

And deposit some beer @admin who was fixing issues all day.

 

Hey, this is not a Christmas thread! How about you all go and edit a few pages of the EU guide: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/wiki/Entropia_Universe_Guide

It has reached 500k views just yesterday.

 

More issues solved and editor upgraded. This means that wiki editing is a lot easier now and on the back-end it also became easier to make editing even easier, easy, right!?

Old editor:



New editor:



Go and test it: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/w/index.php?title=Sandbox&action=edit

In the unlikely case you prefer the old one you can disable the new one in your preferences.

 

Alrighty, I'll probably spam wiki stuff continuously... maybe move to PCF until it's done


A few more issues are solved, the new uploaded is working properly, so it's much much easier to upload images to the wiki now.

Old plain boring uploader:



New editor integrated Ajax mass uploader:



And the shiny new gallery modes:

.

 

Should be working, but only TPs with "Destination" set to "Cyrene" appear on the page, the new ones you've added don't have that yet.

 

Both possible with 2 clicks but currently only admins can do that - as soon as all the re-organization of the wiki is done we can enable it for a wider audience. Just let me know what to do to which TP.

 

The 5 you explicitly mentioned are done.

Did all the others ending with "Teleporter" have the "Teleporter" part dropped?

 

Alrighty, more fixes & tweaks are in. Most notably the gallery options are now working properly together with a popup slideshow thingie:

However, the next major wiki apocalypse is precariously close
