MediaWiki talk:Sidebar
From PSU Cyril Wiki
The Invisible Sidebar
- Yo, is the sidebar suddenly just not present for anyone else? Because it isn't loading at all for me, and I tried both monobook and default. The sidebar hasn't been edited in close to a year, but it is displaying the default mediawiki sidebar (main page, community portal, etc.). Any ideas what the deal is? --Qwerty 15:53, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
- Not sure what happened, but I've known it to happen on rare occasions before. It always ends up reappearing not too long after its disappearance, though. - EspioKaos 16:11, 10 June 2011 (EDT)
The Firefox plug-in
- I'm not sure if it was ever updated, but I updated the search plugin a while ago to use the new logo. I've dumped it here for the time being since I don't have FTP access to update it on the location linked by the sidebar. - Miraglyth 15:30, 30 March 2008 (CDT)
bea
- Nah, I was trying to get it as a sub-bullet under Events, but apparently that doesn't work in the sidebar. Guess it's ok where you put it, though. --Qwerty 18:40, 22 April 2008 (CDT)
Search box
Can this please be placed in a more convenient location? It's really annoying to have to constantly scroll down to the bottom of the page to search for anything. If an admin needs a reference, see my page for a suggestion. —Feauce 12:36, 21 February 2009 (CST)
- I agree that it is rather annoying. Unfortunately, we are unable to move the search box, as it is automatically placed below all other entries. --Qwerty 12:56, 21 February 2009 (CST)
- If "* SEARCH" is placed in the Sidebar code, it will force it to a higher position. This is shown in the link from my previous post. —Feauce 22:41, 21 February 2009 (CST)
- Didn't work, even with shift+f5. Reverting now. --beatrixkiddo 22:59, 21 February 2009 (CST)
- Yeah, we've tried before, and that doesn't work. Maybe it does on other versions of MediaWiki, I dunno. I'll look into to it when I get time, but we'll have to deal with it for now. --Qwerty 01:07, 22 February 2009 (CST)
