== Question from [[User:Rrd257r|Rrd257r]] (03:39, 27 June 2025) ==

Hello. I was wondering if it's okay to create a wiki to use as a sort of personal knowledge manager. --[[User:Rrd257r|Rrd257r]] ([[User talk:Rrd257r|talk]]) 03:39, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] (16:06, 11 July 2025) ==

Hello! Would it be possible to make the Wiki looks relatively the same in both mobile and on phone, since it currently appears bugged with my Wiki to render to far to the right. I also have noticed a very difficult time navigating your website, and changing my settings, so that's just something to note, but how would I add a custom CSS to my web page? Since it currently appears I'm limited, and unable to set a background image for it? And sorry for so many questions at once, but where are the rules for the wiki supposed to be, are you allowed to link other wiki's, and it appears that the home button is bugged on certain themes, such as the Citizen theme it appears in dark it renders as a square in Arch Linux, it also seems like I'm unable to edit my page in my phone, would my users have to deal with that issue as well? --[[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] ([[User talk:BTB Studio Code|talk]]) 16:06, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:I think it's because of a missing image with Citizen. Otherwise you have to set minerva as the default for both desktop and mobile if you want them to look the same, vector isn't really a good mobile skin. --'''[[User:Zippybonzo|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippybonzo|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippybonzo|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippybonzo|ca]]) 18:29, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

== CSS Making ==

How would one go about adding a site-wide, or page wide CSS settings using this program? I'm having a very, very difficult time figuring out how in my limited use [[User:BTB Studio Code|BTB Studio Code]] ([[User talk:BTB Studio Code|talk]]) 20:49, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

:Not Zippy, but I hope I can provide a few answers in the meantime. Sitewide CSS is controlled by the page MediaWiki:Common.css. Users can customize their own styles by editing their personal CSS pages such as User:YourUsername/common.css. To apply CSS to a specific page in MediaWiki, you can assign a unique class or ID to elements on that page and then target those selectors in MediaWiki:Common.css. For example, you might use body.page-PageName as a CSS selector to apply styles only when viewing a specific page. Lastly, if you want to apply CSS to just a specific skin (like Vector or MonoBook), you can instead edit pages like MediaWiki:Vector.css.

== Question from [[User:Notedbilly|Notedbilly]] (13:10, 22 July 2025) ==

hello, me and my friends, being administrators on our wiki ([https://kabachok.wikioasis.org|wiki]), recently lost the right to edit absolutely any articles. theres still an admin panel, there is the ability to change articles names and delete them etc but somehow no to edit. is there any reason to it? --[[User:Notedbilly|Notedbilly]] ([[User talk:Notedbilly|talk]]) 13:10, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

==Hello==

Hello! I need some help with importing Module:Documentation/styles.css and Module:Message box/ambox.css

There is an error saying: Import failed:

The content model 'sanitized-css' is not registered on this wiki.

See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_handlers to find out which extensions handle this content model.

When I create the module manually it says: Lua error at line 1: unexpected symbol near '/'.

Also my wiki logo isn't displaying but my favicon is and how do I add "From Dovepedia, the Dove Hepburn encyclopedia" like "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" at the top of pages? Thanks! --'''[[User:LeicesterLass|Leic]][[User talk:LeicesterLass|Lass]]''' 11:47, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

== Wiki logo ==

There's an issue with displaying the wiki logo on Dovepedia. When I use my mouse and right click on the logo and open image in new tab, it displays the image. The favicon works and displays well, the only issue is the wiki logo. --'''[[User:LeicesterLass|Leic]][[User talk:LeicesterLass|Lass]]''' 19:14, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

:Like I mentioned on [[user talk:Globe|my talk page]], you must follow the directions on [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/ManageWiki#How_do_I_change_my_logo.2Ffavicon.3F this page] for the photos to display properly. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 10:40, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
