Unexpected Behavior
Links take you to other Wikia sites
I'm having trouble with links taking me to other Wikia sites instead of the link that I clicked on. I encountered this earlier tonight when I clicked on the "prev" link of a particular page history. After a few tries, it took me to the correct page, so I dismissed this as a transient problem.
However, I'm getting this again. On the Power Forges, when I click on the Alchemy Forge link I am taken to... http://trueblood.wikia.com/wiki/True_Blood_Wiki instead. Now, when I hover over the link, I see the correct destination in the footer. But when I copy the link, I get this instead: <http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/aclk?sa=l&ai=B3KfXIIfISuq5GYrKqgPyr429DOel90oAAAAQASDBjPUCOABQ8LDd8gNY--7_pApg_dDwgMgDsgERYXNoZXJvbi53aWtpYS5jb23IAQLaASpodHRwOi8vYXNoZXJvbi53aWtpYS5jb20vd2lraS9Qb3dlcl9Gb3JnZXOYAmTAAgLgAgHqAhVGT09URVJfU1BPVExJR0hUX0xFRlT4AvLRHpAD6AKYA9AFqAMByAMF4AQB&num=0&sig=AGiWqtx65p0tJXaAbp0IMAb-bcVBb9FHoA&client=ca-pub-4086838842346968&adurl=http://trueblood.wikia.com/wiki/True_Blood_Wiki&nm=1>.

I haven't been able to reproduce it unfortunately, if it happens to you again, if you could go back to the page and View->Page Source, copy everything and email the text to me.--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 20:20, October 19, 2009 (UTC)
Youtube videos no longer embedded
Example: AC2:Episode Videos. All the text is still on the page, but they do not display anymore. Looks like there is a new "Insert Videos" button that may work instead.
--An Adventurer 18:54, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
EDIT:
looks like youtube videos cannot be embedded anymore? I used the insert video button and it apparently copied the whole video from youtube and uploaded it here, so now there is a Video:Asheron's Call 2: Fallen Kings - Episode 1 file.
--An Adventurer 19:01, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
The youtube embed format is different in wikia than it was in the original AC.INFO site, now you must use "<youtube>###</youtube> format. I haven't found any documentation on sizing yet though. A conversion script would be necessary to catch all the broken links... if this isn't feasable, I can always develop a simple client-side script that can automatically fix youtube embeds a single page at a time, but of course that'd be tedious. Connorthecraftmaster 02:09, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
How To Embed a YouTube Video has been updated to reflect the new syntax. I've changed most uses but will do a more thorough search later today. Also other video services are supported as well as resizing, full details can be found at Help:YouTube extension.--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 09:57, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
Auto Increments
Looks like #expr:AUTOINCREMENT is not functioning on the creature pages, and probably elsewhere. Ex: Gear Knight.
--Immortalbob 13:21, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

Just an update, the wikia staff is still reviewing this extension (along with two others) and to ensure they won't cause any problems if installed. (The others are Titlekey that makes the drop down suggestions from the search bar case insensitive and Multicategory search). --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 20:09, October 19, 2009 (UTC)
Edit counts on Related Links page
The edit counts do not display correctly on the Related Links page. Looks like #ec:<user> no longer displays edit counts. Not sure if this is an issue with {{Contributions}} and {{Contributions Large}} or if it has to do with the wikia software displaying edit counts differently.
--An Adventurer 17:04, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
Wikia uses a different function so I updated the templates, it did display counts for some people, but not everyone, I'm working to get that resolved (I removed it all together for the moment and will put it back once it's working). --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 16:51, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
After lots of digging I found that the function fails for users that have not yet logged in to Wikia at least once. If I can't find a workaround this will just remain unused. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 01:45, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
Image Galleries
Various image galleries are not displaying correctly, for me anyway. This can be seen at http://asheron.wikia.com/wiki/Artwork, http://asheron.wikia.com/wiki/Hieromancers'_Halls#Images, and http://asheron.wikia.com/wiki/Yalain#Art_.26_Images among other places. An odd behavior I noticed is that while the File:Yalain Imperial Seal.jpg does not display on the gallery, I can create a link like this or enter http://asheron.info/~asheron/index.php/File:Yalain_Imperial_Seal.jpg and the image does display. --An Adventurer 16:35, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
This appears to be an issue for any image that is resized smaller and for thumbnails. I haven't found any image that won't display as itself, but no resizings I have seen so far display (some are entirely blank, some have a placeholder). There is more than one way for Mediawiki to generate new images (whenever an image is resized Mediawiki creates a new image of that size and saves it to the Thumbs directory so that in the future it can refer to the new image file rather than generate it every time a page is rendered. I imagine there's a conflict between the old and new settings (or the way the directory is structured) that is causing this. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 17:13, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Look with MonoBook skin
When switching to the default wikipedia skin, there seems to be 125 extra pixels at the right side of all articles, and all pages are framed or boxed. --An Adventurer 16:46, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
The space is reserved for ads. Depending on your browser/plugin settings you may simply see a blank space there. Because it is ad space we can't use modifications to reclaim the space. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 01:46, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
Sidebar
The sidebar (links on the left side) will need customization once the site is live, so the current appearance both in Monaco and Monobook isn't how it will be later. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 17:05, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Page Views
Special:Mostvisitedpages counts aren't merged with previous counts. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 10:33, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
The counts do no get merged unfortunately so all counts start at zero after the move.--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 16:53, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
Create Page Link Missing
Previously if you entered a term into the search box and hit go or search, and the page didn't exist yet, it would give you a create page link. This link was missing. I was able to get it back by modifying MediaWiki:Searchsubtitle to include:
You can [[:$1|create this page]].
--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 12:29, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
Missing Content
User Contributions
This is a minor issue that doesn't effect anything as far as I can see. Some (all?) files do not have the correct user listed in the file history. An example: File:Yalain Imperial Seal.jpg lists ASHERON-Gouru under "user" even though I was the one that uploaded it. If however, you go to the Revision history of "File:Yalain Imperial Seal.jpg" ( http://asheron.wikia.com/index.php?title=File:Yalain_Imperial_Seal.jpg&action=history ) it does correctly list me as the uploader.
Like I said, its a minor issue and probably has no impact on anything, but it is an unexpected behavior.--An Adventurer 17:04, September 24, 2009 (UTC)
Some users contributions were switched with other user's names. This problem was traced to an error in the script Wikia used to merge the user databases. Most of them have been resolved however there are still a few, I am tracking these down now and they should be fixed within a few days.--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 15:38, September 26, 2009 (UTC)
It looks like ASHERON-Mobidoy has all my contributions. --Immortalbob 02:56, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
The problem is more widespread than I had initially believed, also there are some many-to-one mismatches where several contributors have had their edits assigned to a single user. Wikia is working on this and I will post as soon as I have any more information. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 19:01, September 30, 2009 (UTC)
I have also noticed something that maybe related to this. When I upload higher quality icons for some items, it doesn't appear to want to use the new version. Most of my files are now credited by ASHERON-Mba. Can you guys see the difference between these two icons?

I only see one file. As for the name, yes that is helpful as your contribution history shows the edit while the page itself does not reflect the correction. I'll be sure to check that the corrections get propogated all the way down.--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 19:02, September 30, 2009 (UTC)
These should all be resolved now, I've checked extensively and everything I've checked is coming up correctly now, if anyone finds a still existing misattribution please let me know. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 20:02, October 19, 2009 (UTC)

Site Performance
- New site doesn't seem to be as quick as our previous site - more delays and timeouts. It would be nice if the host provided more resources to speed it up. I've lost some work due to page timeout and will have to remember to always copy the page before previewing it. --Dr Doom HG 18:33, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
- I've experienced this as well, also the undo feature seems to not work in text boxes as it did previously (trying to track that down).

- RSS feed for recent changes doesn't appear to be working today (was working last week). --Dr Doom HG 22:47, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
- Images appear to be cached on the server, so when uploading a new image it stays as the old image and won't refresh to the new (even with an Alt-F5). Wikia adjusts the width-and-height proportions to the new image, but the server doesn't actually serve-up the new image. (see Apprentice Fletcher (Samsur) for example of a squashed image) --Dr Doom HG 18:13, September 29, 2009 (UTC)
- I had this exact problem with newer icons, I uploaded the newer icons a second time today and now the old ones appear ok (very annoying), but atleast they show up now. --Tiger1986 16:53, September 30, 2009 (UTC)
- Our old refresh button did this automatically, however Wikia removed it, I will ask them again to let us keep it. But you can do the same action manually if you click edit, then go to the address bar and replace the word "edit" with the word "purge" then hit return.--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a>

- The refresh button is present again however resized image caching problem appears to be either a long time delay in updating or a problem recognizing a new image needs to be created. I'll continue trying to find a resolution for this. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a>

- According to Wikia staff the clearing isn't always immediate so while the change was successful it can take some time for it to actually show up (so if you go back to the page later on it should appear correctly). In the pages I've checked myself this has been true. So while somewhat annoying, it doesn't appear to actually be broken. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a>
