Header image 'broken'
| Issue | Browsers affected | Cause | Severity | Resolution |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Top menu bar (A.K.A. the 'Sims faces mosaic') image is broken and repeating. | 
|
The top menu bar appears to be wider than usual - unknown reason | Minor | 
|
As stated above, the mosaic image is broken, at least in my browser (Firefox). If any other users see this issue, please chime in here. If you see this issue and are using a browser other than Firefox, please include it on the table above.
As for solutions, I'm thinking, if this was a Wikia-wide change to the menu bar width, that perhaps we can rig up some css code to re-narrow the bar (hopefully this doesn't violate TOS)... or we can maybe contact JoePlay, the person who designed the original, to have him re-do it with the new, wider setting. -- LostInRiverview talk · blog 05:42, January 21, 2012 (UTC)
Quick report script
I've implemented a system on the reports page to allow users to easily report a user by typing the user/IP address on the first field, the page that was vandalised, which is an optional requirement - the Report template has a link to the user's contributions. Finally the reporting user only has to click "Report user" and it's done.
The JS used for the system can be found here with the corresponding removal script (which the form won't work without) can be found here. Both of these are listed as "importScript" functions on MediaWiki:Common.js.
Currently the system is basic and only accommodates a link to one page (with a history link) and no signature from the reporting user. While I do feel that we can live without these, it would be nice if we could try and implement these.
The scripts/form are still in testing (with the removal script still requiring reports to be manually removed) so if you come across any bugs, feel free to list them down. Lost Labyrinth

Broken HTML tags
| Issue | Browsers affected | Cause | Severity | Resolution |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HTML tags, namely <choose> tags, appear broken. | 
|
Possibly due to the MediaWiki upgrade/HTML5 switchover | Minor |
|
So I've noticed that some HTML tags on the Community Portal mainpage seem to be broken. I noticed that (overnight?) we have been upgraded to MediaWiki 1.19 as part of Wikia's global overhaul. Despite HTML5 having native backwards compatibility with older versions of the HTML standard, a lot of tags have become obsolete. This is noticeable in Chrome and I haven't tried any other browsers.

- This issue also exists in Firefox, so I've added that to the table. In fact, the page won't even load for me, it dumps me on an error page instead. However, I do know that before the upgrade we were having problems on that page, specifically with the randomized Sim pictures and the <choose> tags. *edit* If it is those tags, then it's worth mentioning that we use them on other pages as well, including on the Main Page in multiple templates. At last check a couple weeks ago they were still working, but I'll check again. -- LiR speak ~ read 21:52, July 6, 2012 (UTC)
