Wiki Temporarily Down

Post by |darc| »

There some issues with the wiki at the moment, so it has been taken down until I can fix the issue. The forums will be available in the mean time.

Haven't had time to work on it, or haven't made the time?

BTW I think we should put some more effort into the wiki. A lot of questions are asked again and again. Maybe we should organize a bit?
If you guys could gather some questions/topics and make a wiki index page linking to all of them I'd be willing to help with writing the corresponding wiki articles.

Oh, so this is why we can't access the OpenBOR manual anymore? It was hosted here: http://dcemulation.org/index.php5?title=OpenBORManual

I think the issue is fixed, but it required upgrading the MediaWiki to a version that no longer supports the theme we were using. So, right now we're at the default Vector theme. Given that I didn't completely like the theme we were using anyway, I'll look for a new one, but might end up adapting the previous one if it's possible and if I don't find anything else I like.

Ultimately I would love to have a real, custom theme specific to this site but I doubt I'll ever have the time to develop that myself and I'm not that good at it anyway. Maturion was supposed to do that but he went MIA...

Well except for initially - after the setup - there wasn't really much of a concerted effort to get everything alive and kicking at once. After Maturion and a few others did the initial heavy lifting, the team effort kind of died out. Due to a lil lack of communication, a lil disinterest, but mainly peoples personal obligations to work, social life, family, and other projects.

Right now (and for the past year) single people have just been making their own list and doing what work they can fit into their schedules. You have to blaze your own trail, although a bit lonely, still helpful and rewarding to the community.

Default or not, I think it looks great. Much cleaner than the the previous theme. And it finally has some color! Thanks darc and good work. A custom theme would be nice, but im glad were where we are right now.

Hello guys. I am O Ilusionista, the guy who updates the OpenBOR Legacy manual here: https://dcemulation.org/index.php?title=OpenBORManual

I was trying to update it today, but everytime I submit something, I got a "error 500".
Is there anything which could be done to fix this? I would like to add new information to that page.

Thanks!

I believe the wiki is moved to dreamcast.wiki
