Could you gimmie a yell next time you're about? Need to talk to you about some stuff. IM:CaraamonDR -Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 09:56, 17 October 2010 (UTC) |

I'm going to TRY and adapt the titles to semanticwiki's dynamic form generation so as to make some of the category pages a little easier to maintain... but I have no idea if it'll work. Check the {{skill|Perception}} page, down at the bottom with the juggling items to see what I'm trying to do. Lemmie know what you think. -[[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Strugr-Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 01:26, 15 August 2008 (CDT) |

: Ok, that's a great idea, because the load time on the pages currently with all the includes are horrible. LOL After this, I'd like to hit the Bestiary *groans* It needs to be done. Semantic Wiki will help LOADS with that, and if we add caps to the individual pages, the Bestiary level list can be made just like that juggling items, aye?--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 09:57, 15 August 2008 (CDT) |

:: In theory..... we'll just have to see how messy it is in actual practice. Here's hoping. I'll work out the bugs with the simpler titles, then try bestiary once I've nailed it down. -[[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Strugr-Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 15:33, 15 August 2008 (CDT) |

:: I've been changing some of the titles over to use the TitleReq template instead of the extra pipes in the Title template. Should I undo what I've done, so that other pages can be changed to match [[Barbarian Titles]]? [[User:FuIru|FuIru]] 19:41, 18 November 2008 (UTC) |

Hi, I started a new char and was going by your hunting guide but it is wrong. The scavanger goblins teach up to around 40ish.. and the regular field goblins and shaman's teach up to 60ish or higher havn't got to that point.. The scavanger goblins stopped teaching defenses but go to the area with field goblins and shaman's and they can still hit me.. thought you should know. |

I have to admit, they're starting to tick me off. What do you think about moving them to their own namespace? I'm tired of having to filter them out of searches manually. -[[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Strugr-Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 19:24, 12 October 2008 (CDT) |

== New Articles == |
|||
Ah! I'm new to the Wiki scene, so still figuring out how to navigate this "talk" concept. No, those articles I'm posting aren't my own works; they were written by GameMaster Armifer, and are referenced on his GM page in Elanthipedia. I'm actually in the process of uploading all his works that I can find, so I haven't properly attributed them on the pages I'm posting yet... but I will. ;-) |
|||
:Ok. Just a note - it's customary to continue talk conversations on the page they were started. And make sure to sign your talk posts (the signature button in the edit button window). Thanks! --[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 21:13, 1 November 2008 (CDT) |
|||
== Search Functionality == |
|||
With the segreating of items, weapons, armor, etc. into their own categories away from the Main section, do you think it would be possible to include those categories in the default search settings? It drastically reduces the search functionality for the casual user if a cursory search doesn't turn up what they're looking for. --[[User:Thilan|Thilan]] 05:44, 5 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:I've set the default search namespaces to include all the new ones we've added. However, the maintenance script I tried to run to fix all existing users has failed several times to work, and I'm not sure what the problem is. All my other scripts have worked. Until I get the patch on user options to work, I will put up a big SEARCH HOWTO that tells people to change their Search preferences in their preferences area to include the other namespaces.--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 15:11, 5 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
== re: GoogleSearch == |
|||
Just to forewarn you (if you haven't already heard stuff like this), you might get mixed results from this. GoogleSearch seems to be based on your site score or somesuch, so if you get too popular more and more "unrelated junk" will appear (ie, references to Elanthipedia from, say, play.net posts). |
|||
Zuggsoft.com tried to use GoogleSearch for an easy and powerful way to scan through their website/forums, but the results returned proved to be largely unuseful to the point that few people used it at all (luckily, the forums had a search feature of its own).--[[User:Symphaena|Symphaena]] 23:01, 7 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:Thanks. Like I said, tis an experiment :)--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 23:05, 7 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::Is it possible to put the google search below the elanthipedia search? I keep trying to search elanthipedia with it. --[[User:Ysselt|Ysselt]] 19:08, 8 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:::That's the point, but sure I'll move it.--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 20:07, 8 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::::Is there a way to default it to submit the search with "site:www.elanthipedia.com" appended to each search? then it will only search for whatever is being searched within the elanthipedia domain. --[[User:Bromus|Bromus]] 08:12, 9 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:::::It should be already defaulted to that. It was when I set it up.--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 15:11, 9 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
== Fest auction == |
|||
Just wanted to let ya know that it was warchyld that won the toy box from the second day auction at the fest....Scott |
|||
:Ok? Why you telling me? You can change it/update it/whatever yourself :)--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 13:43, 28 November 2008 (UTC) |
|||
== Shop Prices == |
|||
I'm trying to learn to edit and I'm confining myself to the Crossing Trader Shop. I can't seem to figure out how to get prices to display for the items in the store. Any advice? |
|||
--[[User:Dinran|Dinran]] 23:02, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:No worries. For future reference, you can use the signature button in the editing buttons toolbar ([[Image:Button_sig.jpg]]) or just type 4 tildes <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. |
|||
:To answer your question, Edit the shop page, go to the ShopItem line for the item you want to add the price to, and add the numerical value for the price after the last <nowiki>|</nowiki> |
|||
:;Example: |
|||
<pre>{{ShopItem|t=s|enameled tower shield painted with the Therengian royal crest|5000}}</pre> |
|||
:--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 14:03, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::And if you mean on individual item pages, as I see you made an edit to [[Item:Jade turtles]], just add the number and the currency (as the form asks). So like 2000 Kronars.--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 14:05, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::Not all the shop pages end their entries with " <nowiki>|}}</nowiki> ", some just have the closing brakets right after the name, but that just means you need to add the " <nowiki>|</nowiki> " right before the price yourself. It's quite straight forward once you know what all the parts are for, but that first look at the wall of text can be quite intimidating<br>-[[User:Glimmereyes|Glimmereyes]] 14:18, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |

:::Good point, thanks for clarifying for him, Glimmereyes.--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 14:19, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
So to clarify there is no way to link the table to the Item's stored sale amount?--[[User:Dinran|Dinran]] 23:02, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
== Titles, Redux == |
|||
Okay, now that I've started moving titles, I've run into a strange issue. The fact boxes show up for the articles in the Title namespace... but things like #ask don't see them. Any idea? Moderator [[User:Caraamon|Caraamon Strugr-Makdasi]]<sup>([[User talk:Caraamon|talk]])</sup> 21:28, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:I'm not sure. I ran the maintenance scripts after I setup the new namespace, so it's a viable content namespace. Hmm... does #ask work on the other namespaces?--[[User:Naeya|Naeya]] <sup>([[User talk:Naeya|talk]])</sup> 21:43, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |
|||
::Hmm, I've found a way to force it to specifically look in another namespace, but otherwise it only seems to check the main one. This is despite the documentation which says I should default to all namespaces. I wonder if it's at all tied to the odd behavior of the factboxes? (They don't show up on first loading a page, only once you reload 'em). Fun, eh?
