GuildWiki:Wikia staff noticeboard/Resolved2

__NEWSECTIONLINK__ The Wikia staff noticeboard is intended as a way to alert Wikia staff of issues which need their attention. This place should not be confused with the Admin noticeboard.


 * If you have a problem with the wiki's content, use a relevant talk page. Content problems added here will be removed.
 * If you are having issues with the game, use a relevant talk page or use ArenaNet's Guild Wars support site. See how to report for instructions on reporting game bugs. Guild Wars problems added here will be removed.

To create a new request, add a new subheading (you can do it by clicking the "leave message" tab near the top of the page), providing a neutral, concise, and signed summary of the issue. It is suggested that any other users involved in an issue should be informed of its discussion here.

Can't find your request? Maybe it has been resolved.

Ad bug
Image:Wizardboy Ad Bug.jpg. It appears that a banner ad is appearing where the google ads normally would. Most of the ad gets hidden behind the page body. You can see the html used to generate it in the firebug window in the picture, if that helps.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 01:56, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Is this still happening? I can't seem to replicate the bug anymore. --KyleH (talk) 17:49, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Did you know....
That $("wikia_header") is null? Because firebug yells at me about it on basically every page :(  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 09:04, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll file a bug report on that. It probably has something to do with GuildWiki's custom version of Monobook. --KyleH (talk) 17:49, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I also occasionally get an error saying that "this._getCurrentBrowser is null". It usually doesn;t show up immediately - I only seem to have it show when I've been looking at the same page for a while.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 23:23, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Second ad in page body on long page
The Championship Trophy page has a google ad at the top and another one down at the Wintersday Tournament Trophy, which totally messes up the layout there (I have a screenshot, but I'm not logged in atm). I thought there was supposed to be only one ad per page in the body? --mendel @ 84.128.228.43 17:04, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * On longer pages, there is a second ad at the bottom of the page (and occasionally one below the fold on the sidebar). The second ad can be either a box ad or a banner.  If it's a box ad, it appears after the last section header.  If it is a banner, it will appear below the content.  The collision detection should, however, prevent page-breakage ... on that page, it should have created a banner instead of a box.  I'll pass that info along to the tech team. --KyleH (talk) 17:13, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Ah yes, right now it's a banner, not the box, but where that was is Winterfest Championship Trophy . Not nice at all. Does that mean we have to add a dummy section header to each page now? The banner ad adds its own header to the page, which is not nice at all either. --84.128.228.43 17:17, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I saw the box too ... that shouldn't be happening because of the "This trophy is no longer on display." box which conflicts with it. I'll check to see why that is happening.  We added the dummy section header based on community feedback--to make it clear that the advertisement is separate from the rest of the content.  Is that not preferable?  That can be styled using CSS if you want it to appear differently (or not at all). --KyleH (talk) 17:28, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
