Encyclopedia updates
« on: December 20, 2008, 10:38:33 pm »
I've updated the Encyclopedia to run the latest version of MediaWiki, however now the default theme for all users has been reset.

If you  have an Encyclopedia account, simply log in and visit this page to change your theme settings.

Also, Search has been fixed.

The new index at the top is nice...Also, what was the old wiki skin...? Is it just the OldCompendium one...? I haven't actually tried to edit in quite some time...>_>

 :shock:



Edit: And of course, that PNG thumbnail problem has vanished. Did you have to re-up anything?

No, and that bug was probably fixed a long time ago. I just ran some maintenance scripts that probably regenerated the thumbnails.

Still, you should make sure to backup all the files on the next scheduled backup, since they've changed.

I just realized, though the Soundtrack Art is basically the same art, there's no Japanese Box Art...

It seems some articles have been changed back to their old version?

That's a bad sign. Can you point out any examples?

The Vera page seems to have lost the note about her title in the Japanese version, and the Radical Dreamers translation differences has lost a note about Shea's orphanage I added.

I'm going to mirror the old Encyclopedia starting next week and open up the new Encyclopedia to general editing, and we'll have to track down and fix these discrepancies by hand. Based on what you two are saying though, it looks like some pages have reverted to earlier versions.

Before that, I'll see if I can track down the cause and recover everything as soon as I have time.

There's an '[undefined]' javascript link at top of each encyclopedia article, what's that?

I'll track down the problem and fix it then. You might hold off on any more edits until everything's taken care of.
