Old Wiki

It seems that I've managed to transfer over all the information in the old wiki, so it may be discarded if there is no more need of it. --amor_fati 16:47, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Templates that we need

  • Material template (How would like that to look like?)
  • Procedure template?
  • Botanics template?
  • Other templates?

Community Portal Appearance

I've been experimenting in the Sandbox with trying to make the portal look more like the main page, but I've run into some problems. I'd like to see the forum links have a little spot on the left with resources directly underneath, the todo list taking up most of the right side, and the to-be-reviewed on the bottom.--amor_fati 22:14, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

For some reason, urls like this http://www.dmt-nexus.com/forum/default.aspx?g=topics&f=29 seem to be incompatible with the Main Page/Portal template. I'll try to find out why.--amor_fati 01:08, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
Found the workaround: = must be represented as =.
It's better to use "=" since thats offical HTML. --TheTraveler 11:38, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
Is there any way to get the template to do this automatically?--amor_fati 14:09, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
I already searched a bit for replacement stuff but didn't find anything. It was late though so I'll try it again. ;) --TheTraveler 16:37, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
I found the correct String Function extension (#replace) but it's not working properly within the Template. It's probably a parser buffer bug in the MediaWiki software. --TheTraveler 17:33, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
