More than 1 tag at a time

Could you make it so it does more than 1 tag at a time, (As WP:TWINKLE and FRIENDLY) do RT | Talk - A joyous wintersday to all 15:19, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

You can tag multiple times - for example, click on the stub button, choose the type of stub; then click on cleanup and you'll notice a window comes on the bottom of the stub window; then just click Tag and save. -- Brains12 • Talk • 15:43, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Request

"To activate the plugin you have to be added to the internal list of GWWT. To request an addition please leave a note on the talk page." Could you add me to said list please? :) -- Brains12 • Talk • 16:04, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Sure, but note that this plugin will be removed with the next revision ;) poke | talk 17:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Problem with gwwt?

→ moved from User talk:Poke

I'm not getting any options to tag anything, all I get is an empty space under "guild wars wiki tools" on the navbar. I still get the tabs along the top and the extra options for watchlist and user subpages, so it's only the tags. I reinstalled it in my monobook.js, so there must be something wrong with your code, maybe? -- Brains12 • Talk • 18:16, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

works as always for me. - Y0_ich_halt 18:39, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, it may be because of the deletion plugin... -- Brains12 • Talk • 16:43, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

fixed. poke | talk 20:42, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Requests

Would it be possible to add an Inactive guild tag to it please :P -- The Great Tomato 11:17, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I'll think about it ;) poke | talk 11:58, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah having that inactive Guild Tagging Option in the Guild Namespace (below Guild cleanup maybe) would be really nice... Any decision yet Poke? --SilentStorm 14:11, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Noticeboxes

Would you make a user that likes to scroll a favor and add "position: fixed;" to the noticeboxes (id: gwwtInfoBox), please? That way it will always stay in the same position even if you scroll (at least in anything but IE6). :) — Galil 06:52, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

No, that won't happen, at least not with the current version. When I add a stub and a move tag, my screen is full and I don't see the save button without scrolling (1280x800) poke | talk 11:58, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I see. That would indeed be a problem, so I just added it to my monobook.css instead. — Galil 14:55, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Goodness

This really speeds up things. I think we were slacking somewhat today on image watching. I still bet I missed a few though. (Note: Laugh at the "hitting the back button is bad" comment in the picture. --People of Antioch talk 05:47, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

hehe ;) That is, what gwwt was made for - And yeah, the back button is a bit stupid :P poke | talk 06:21, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

How do i?

Change the code slightly so in the image deletion reasons instead of showing more, it just has orphaned in that position. --Lemming 14:28, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

As I don't have implemented more than those 3 options, I changed that link for you ;) poke | talk 14:53, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Woo thanks poke :) --Lemming 15:07, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Watchlist bug

In the watchlist part of GWWT, could you please make it check the nodeType of dayList to make sure it isn't a text node? I get javascript errors in my watchlist since dayLists[i].nextSibling returns a textnode with the value "\n" and not the div as expected. :( — Galil 23:06, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

sure, will fix that later ;) poke | talk 05:25, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Actually, now that I take a closer look and adding a breakpoint to go through the loop step by step, that's not the problem at all and the check is already there. The problem is that I've got the "Enhanced Recent Changes list" turned on in my preferences and as such don't have any ul-tags, so the loop keeps running until dayList.nextSibling is null and then exits cause dayList is null. Since that makes the problem an entirely different one, no need to bother fixing it unless you've got some spare time on your hands. — Galil 12:33, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Ah, yeah, the "Enhanced Recent Changes list" is something which is unsupported because of its complex structure. I don't know if I ever will implements something to enable the sorting for that watchlist mode, but if I do, I'll let you know ;) poke | talk 15:56, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

And btw. just remove the gwwtWatchlist = true; line and at least the error will disappear ;) poke | talk 15:57, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I know. I just forgot doing so since I hardly even notice the error anyway. :P — Galil 18:16, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

haha :D poke | talk 18:16, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Note

Do not press back after a tag...GWWT will retag it again Dominator Matrix 03:03, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

That is actually an elaborate April's Fools Joke by poke, old one too. ;-) --  (CoRrRan / talk) 22:12, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Look near the bottom of one of the edits... --People of Antioch 00:50, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

GWWT watchlist

→ moved from User talk:Poke

dumb question for you. I was reccomended to install the GWWT, and I like the userbox on the sidebar. but I don't like what it did to my watchlist. is there some way I can keep the sidebox on the navbar but keep my old watchlist format? -- Wandering Traveler 21:46, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Take out the var gwwtWatchlist = true; line. Do a hard refresh (Ctrl F5) and it should clear. -- Brains12 \ Talk 21:47, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I looked in the code in my monobook and I didnt see that in there. I figured it was fixed, but my watchlist is still freaking out.... -- Wandering Traveler 21:50, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Never mind. just got it to work :P. Thanks Brains. -- Wandering Traveler 21:54, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

What difference is there to the Watchlist if you have the code var gwwtWatchlist = true; in your monobook.js? --Kakarot 01:07, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

If you have that code enabled, it sorts each page into different sections according to their namespace; so Main would have all the main articles, User would have all user pages, user talk all user talks etc. Try it for yourself to see how you like it though :P -- Brains12 \ Talk 01:12, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Speaking of the watchlist function, would it be possible to allow people to select the order the categories come up in? Lord Belar 21:05, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

At the moment, no. But with the planned configuration it's very likely that it will be possible ;) poke | talk 21:22, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

April Fools Joke Gone Bad?

→ moved from User talk:Poke

I heard you played a joke a while back and made GWWT double tag things, well mine keeps double tagging for some reason; am I getting tricked by u or is this a bug? --Shadowphoenix 02:11, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

not just the tags but delete speedy shows up twice (the panel) ((in ie7 NOT ff) --Dominator Matrix 02:12, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

-.- That is a known issue, and no, it was not intended; just don't hit the back button with gwwt. Btw. there is a GWWT talk page for bugs and questions..! poke | talk 09:32, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

ugg or the press the dum buttom 12 times for the tag to paste >>, and wheres that page? Dominator Matrix 04:31, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Uninstall

Any idea how?! Dominator Matrix 06:42, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Nvm just needed to clear cache Dominator Matrix 06:51, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

Bug (2)

Theres no surprise that GWWT hates IE7, but its getting really anoying. For any tags it either doesn't accept it on the first click or, you have to click another tag, and switch back to it. Then tag it (if that makes sense). Please fix! Dominator Matrix 23:45, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Remedy: use Firefox. -- Brains12 \ Talk 23:46, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Never...., as I don't have to if I don't want to :P Dominator Matrix 23:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

(edit conflict) You mean when clicking in the portlet on the left side, the window doesn't open instantly? It does work for me on IE7, so there has to be a problem with your browser/mouse?

And GWWT is fully IE7-compatible. poke | talk 23:50, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I mean that it doesn't accept the tag, so I have to click on another one...click that again then save. And no its not my IE, (its a fully patched one, XP Home...) Dominator Matrix 23:51, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) It works, but in Firefox you just click the link in the navbar and click save; in IE you have to click the link on the navbar, click another link in the window, click the link you want, then save (sometimes). -- Brains12 \ Talk 23:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Yup that >> Dominator Matrix 23:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

o.O I don't get it. When I'm in IE7, I click for example on "delete", then the window pops up and I press save and it's done! poke | talk 23:54, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

~.~ its not always...it happens every other time...its minor but still Dominator Matrix 23:55, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

But to sum up your problem (so that I can test it): You click an action and nothing happens, the window doesn't show up. You click another action and the window appears with the first and the second action and you have to remove the second one then. Correct? poke | talk 23:57, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) It's mainly the stub, user/guild image deletion tags etc if I recall correctly. -- Brains12 \ Talk 23:57, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

But it is not that you have to choose the stub type, or? Because that is a feature, not a bug :P poke | talk 23:59, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict x12) The window does open it just hestates to save. Dominator Matrix 00:00, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) Not choosing an option for stub automatically goes to {{stub}} by default, at least on Firefox. If I remember right, IE makes you have to choose even the default. I had experience with the user/guild image deletion tag issue when I used IE. Had to click at least twice. -- Brains12 \ Talk 00:01, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Actually it should not be the normal stub by default, it should be nothing :P When you press save, is anything in the window turning red (the action title and the line on the left)? In that case you have incorrect data given and it will not save. Otherwise I'll test it; could you give a specific tag where it happens mostly? poke | talk 00:04, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

(Reset indent) With deletions and clean ups mostly and yes thats it!!!! Dominator Matrix 00:05, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) Image deletion tags. (Might have been wrong about the stubs, but it was an arbitrary example :P) -- Brains12 \ Talk 00:06, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

(edit conflict, stop posting and go to bed, Pling! You have school tomorrow!) That = turning red or that = not turning red? However I'll test it.. poke | talk 00:08, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Turning red as if it hates user image/guild image naming....Dominator Matrix 00:08, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Ok, there seems to be a problem with the selection fields in IE, the default values are ignored (but shown as selected); simply click the selected option manually to be able to tag. I'll see what I can do to fix that. poke | talk 00:14, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Poke :), and wasn't the retag bug a april fools joke? Oh and while I remember (and while your fixing) mind adding the inactive guild template? Dominator Matrix 00:15, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

No, it was actually not a April Fools joke :P That bug exists since the first version ^^

And I cannot promise that the fix will be made in the next days as I'm busy with our graduation paper atm, but as it will be printed in about two days, I'll have more time. But I don't know yet if the fix will be made before the next version ;) poke | talk 00:23, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Np poke (school before wiki :P) its not like its a huge error...its just one that gets anoying. Dominator Matrix 00:24, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

User image naming needs a fix (to lazy to do it myself..) as the error just happened again...dum ie XD Dominator Matrix 00:44, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Guild subpages link

I figured this would be easier to add to GWWT rather than to modify the code to work in my own monobook.js and would also help other sysops in the process. Anyway would it be possible to add a Guild subpages link to the toolbox; similar to the User's pages link that is already included; when viewing a Guild page? Something like the code below should work since it's more or less a modified version of the user pages link:

portTool.addItem( 'gwwt-guild.subpages', Guild\'s subpages', '/index.php?title=Special:Prefixindex&namespace=100&from=' + pageRootName, 'Show subpages of Guild:' + pageRootName );

When deleting guild pages for inactivity having this link would help make sure any subpages are marked for deletion as we do with any unused images from the guild page. --Kakarot 15:06, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Sure, I'll think about it :) poke | talk 18:26, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Also, could you implement a tagging option for tagging inactive guilds? That would be great. --People of Antioch 00:31, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

See above. poke | talk 12:39, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

To add to my last suggestion, as well as guild subpages maybe include another link as above for guild talk pages although this isn't as important as the subpages. --Kakarot 13:50, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Fyi

The IE problem with the red text for the user image naming, is also happening on the guild tag. Dominator Matrix 23:54, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

That's because IE sucks. Lord Belar 00:01, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

From the main page: "[...] this includes image/map needed tag, Image deletions and other Image tags."; and I also said it above I think poke | talk 00:02, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Possible extension

maybe you could create an extension for GWWT that allows the inactive guild tag to be added? Or maybe implement it into GWWT instead of being an extension? --Shadowphoenix 00:24, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

See above, and then see above. -- Brains12 \ talk 00:37, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

hehe, didn't see that.... think faster poke! lol jk --Shadowphoenix 00:40, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Probably better if he implements my suggestion first seeing as it could benefit all sysops :P --Kakarot 02:43, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm currently preparing for my last school test, after that I will have more time for things like that. And I won't implement new things to the current version, as the new one is already in production (and then there is also no "implementing X before Y") poke | talk 08:37, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
