I got bored... I'm really just waiting for Extension:Parserfunctions before I do many more content edits and I didn't want to take much time to do maps today.

Help with User Page

Question Here If I have missed this on the termplate page sorry. Is there a template or a way to just input a person's profile name and be sent to his or hers profile?

I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about, but if you want to link to someone's user page, then use [[User:Belgrave|Belgrave]] which gives Belgrave. If you're linking to their game profile page, then use [http://www.fallensword.com/index.php?cmd=profile&player_id=699681 Belgrave] which gives Belgrave. If you need more help, visit the help page for links I put on my user page.

I was looking at just enterring their profile name and it would go to their profile. I am trying to build a template which would show the Item Type, Item Name, Hellforge Lvl, Craft Lvl and Borrowed By. I wanted to be able to input just their profile name under the Borrowed By heading and when some one clicked on the name it would go to their profile. I will just have to think of a way to do it.

Unless I am mistaken, you are trying to make a template that takes a player's name and links back to their in-game profile page. That is not possible since the in-game profile page goes by player ID number instead of the player name. If you wanted to do that, you'd need to make a template that requires both the player ID and the player name, perhaps something like

[http://www.fallensword.com/index.php?cmd=profile&player_id={{{id}}} {{{name}}}]

I figured as much but I was not sure. I will figure a way to do what I want it to do. I like what you have though, but I would have to have 19 templates for the 19 members of the guild. I am sort of looking at something that you would have all the information already in the template because the higher the membership goes up the number of templates will also go up. Plus I am also looking at if a member leaves or gets kicked then you would have to delete that template or am I seeing something that is not there.

Hi. About time I asked for help.
If you haven't noticed already, I've begun the process of splitting up my profile page into different sections. If you'd notice the edit links, you might come to realize that the one beside "Backpack" is not bolded while all the other ones are. Perhaps you could look into that when you have the time, please? Thanks.

It's fixed now and all I changed was a | to a ! ...gotta remember the difference between table headers and table cells.

Is there a way to make each stat optionally visible? Say, if an item does not have the HP stat, can you make it not show up on the StatBox template?
                 CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]

Right now there is no way to do that. If we ever get Extension:Parserfunctions, then I'll add that in.

Question???

How did you become a wiki sysop?

HCS asked if I would take the position and I agreed.

Sortable List of Item Sets

Hello Belgrave. I found it would be nice if it was to sort as well the items sets by their different values. So I copied the content of the Item Set List to a new page Sortable List of Item Sets and used the same class as you used for Boots, helmets, etc.

I am not sure how to make a new table class. so may be you can look if changes need to be made?

I created a new bylevel template, byLevel50

I took a look at the new page you made. I like it and when I get a chance, I may make a few changes and may end up moving that to the regular item set list. I'd have done it already but I'm a bit busy with non-wiki things right now!

On Splitting Up Pages

How do you hide specific parts of a page? Sinho6 20:08, 7 September 2008 (BST)

You make a table with the following code and put everything you want to hide inside it.

{| class="collapsible collapsed"
! table header (this part needs to exist for it to work)
|-
| table content
|}

Adding Separate Pages to a Wiki Page

Okay, I added a new page called The Hunted Cow Tippers/Gear 1-100, how do I incorporate it into the main page? (The Hunted Cow Tippers) Sinho6 20:46, 7 September 2008 (BST)

Put {{The Hunted Cow Tippers/Gear 1-100}} where you want it on The Hunted Cow Tippers page.
— Belgrave, Moderator / Sysop  Talk  Message PM 

Okay, I tried that, but all it does is write "Template:The Hunted Cow Tippers/Gear 1-100" with a link to a page that doesn't exist. Could you help me out? It's under the Gear section of this page. Sinho6 20:59, 7 September 2008 (BST)

My bad... apparently you need a colon (:) at the front since it's in the Main namespace so it would be {{:The Hunted Cow Tippers/Gear 1-100}}.

Linking

Is it possible to have any link that goes to my profile to end up here?
                 CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]

Only if your profile redirects to that... Alternatively, you can go through the entire wiki and edit every page that links to your profile so it links to that instead.
