Board Thread:New on Boboiboy Wiki/@comment-4638690-20170409124158

Hello, all! I'm Jae, and I've just been recently been promoted to an admin to better help improve this Wikia. I have several announcements to make regarding the new changes in this Wikia.

NEW CHARACTER INFOBOXES



You all might have noticed the new character infoboxes that have been replacing the old ones on the Character pages. That was a custom infobox created by yours truly, to better fit this new theme, which I will talk about later.

There had been a major issue with the Infoboxes and the 'tabs', which are put to switch between the old incarnations of characters and the new ones. When you insert the tabber code straight into the infobox via the visual editor (e.i. the editor that opens up when you click 'Edit' on the Top Left corner), the tabber will end up 'breaking'.

It's very simple to fix this. The easiest way is to save the 'Broken Tabber' from the Visual Editor, and then click the small arrow next to the 'Edit' button and go into Classic Editor. Then simply click 'Source' near the top right corner (where there are two tabs Source & Visual) and just hit 'Publish' after going into Source. You don't even have to touch anything in the source.

That should immediately fix the problem and the infobox will be fixed. The reason why this happens is because the 'tabber' code is a fairly complex one and it ends up breaking in the visual editor and has to be added manually via the Source Editor. Unfortunately, every time you edit the article with a infobox with tabber in the Visual Editor, the tabber would end up breaking and you would have to go back into Source editor to fix it.



I will be looking into this issue to see if there is a way to fix it, but I think it's just the complexity of the Tabber code in the simple, easy-to-use visual editor. If you need help fixing a broken tabber in an infobox, then please leave a message on my Message Wall and I will look into it. The visual editor tends to be a bit buggy sometimes, so it might be better to edit things in the Classic Editor.

VISUAL UPDATE: GALAXY

You might have noticed that this wikia visually, looks very different than it did a week ago. It is now dark-themed and the buttons has changed into orange. This is because, FrostiesPrincess and I, have decided to update the wikia to better fit the new airing of Galaxy. The dark blue values are supposed to be the 'deep space' color, with orange highlights to match the BoBoiBoy theme and the white text to be like 'stars'.

The home page will be going through some renovations so forgive us if it looks a bit wonky for the next few weeks.

We are open to criticism and feel free to suggest what you might want to improve in this thread below and we will take all suggestions into consideration.

PAGE DROP

A minor issue, but some people might be shocked/worried that the Page Count for this wikia had dropped almost by a hundred pages. This is because the administration had gone in and purged numerous empty, dead, and unnecessary pages. We are still in the process of purging dead pages and hopefully maximizing each page created instead of making pages willy-nilly.

That being said please do not create any pages that are unnecessary. Unnecessary pages include Empty Pages, pages about something insignificant enough to have it's own page, duplicate pages, etc. If you have an idea for a new page creation, try to bring it up with one of the members of the administration and we can help you decide whether or not it should be an individual page.

And that's all, BoBoiFans! If you have any questions on the information above, then please do let me know and I will get back to you as soon as I can!
