Close Firefox. First download this file into some folder on your computer: http://downloads.mozdev.org/wikipedia/wikipedia_0.8.0.2.xpi. Next extract the wikipedia_0.8.0.2.xpi file into C:\Documents and Settings\[USER]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[PROFILE THINGY]\extensions\wikitoolbar. Now go back to the profile directory and edit the file in there called extensions.ini by adding an extra extension variable in continuity with the value of the wikitoolbar folder. Restart Firefox, now it won't be on the add-ons list but it will appear. This took me about 2 minutes to figure out. ~ [[User:Tigiot|Tigiot]] 21:06, 2 February 2007 (CST):::Arg, if you do do this, be forewarned - IT WON'T LIKE YOU! ~ [[User:Tigiot|Tigiot]] 21:30, 2 February 2007 (CST)100%"

This will allow our wiki community to dedicate this present talk page to the continued improvement of the [[Main Page]].

It's new template time again! <del>This one An informational notice has bugs however, due been added to dependency problems</del> I'll fix laterthe top of this page to support this change of practice...maybe.Use An infobox has also been added to the bottom of the <nowiki>{{cleanup}}</nowiki> tag on pages that have bad formatting or Wikicodepage to allow continued access to previous discussions without crowding-out active discussions.

{{cleanup}}<small>-Previous discussions non-relevant to the '''Main Page''' have been moved to the new [[UserWurmpedia:Lainiwakura|Lain IwakuraVillage square]] 21:48, 7 April 2006 (CDT)</small>page where they will also be properly archived.

Another This new onearrangement follows the general practice of other wikis. Hopefully, use this will encourage more participation by seasoned wikipedians in the <nowiki>{{Copyedit}}</nowiki> tag for pages that have spelling or grammar mistakes, or use 'leetspeak'..Wurm Online community.--[[User:Thyrh|Thyrh]] ([[User talk:Thyrh|talk]]) 11:P36, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

I'm prototyping a new mainpage with a 'Wurmictionary' or babel, will list all articles by letter, [[User:Lainiwakura/NewMainPagePrototype|you can see it here]]. <small>--[[User:Lainiwakura|Lain Iwakura]] 06:55, 20 May 2006 == Continents link name changed to Continents (CDTservers)</small>==: The prototype looks messed up Although I appreciate the use of in Firefox herecannon terms on the front page of the wiki I think that it could lead to some confusion. "Wiki editing requires login" In my experience, "Categories" and IRC are everywhere else what is labeled continents here is called servers; on the right side forums, in game, the name of the contents window nowwiki page, while the babel is below them and in the right bottom cornerother games. <small>--[[User:Manny|Manny]] 0:43, 21 May 2006 I believe changing the name to something like Continents (GMT+2Servers)</small>: That's why it's a prototype... :Pwill greatly increase the usability, I don't want to break the real mainpage whilst I experimentespecially for new players. <small>--[[User:LainiwakuraGrimbark|Lain IwakuraGrimbark]] 12:49, 21 May 2006 (CDT)</small>: Woo!

The main page is ==Wiki Admin Change==How do I get a bit messy at the moment. I think we should make something simple like Wikipedia's Main Page. It will help users find things faster. Does anyone agreewiki account? I will work on <strike>Contact Eir for a prototype of the ideas I have in mind - check my [[User:Ancient|user page]]wiki account.</strike> Please do not contact Rolf and Egal about Wiki accounts.--[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 12:04, 6 June 2006 (CDT)

Here<strike>It's what I've got so far: now Mamadarkness. Rawr.</strike>[[User:Ancient/Prototype_Main_PageVirtue|Virtue]]. Any ideas and suggestions? Do you think we should replace the main page with this. I've also seen that Lain Iwakura is working on alphabetical categories for all articles: ([[Usertalk:Lainiwakura/NewMainPagePrototypeVirtue|talk]]. This could be introduced into my prototype too and replace the main-page. Does anyone think this is a good idea?) 17:03, 24 June 2014 (CEST)

--[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 13:21, 6 June 2006 (CDT) I like it so far. :) <small>--[[User:Lainiwakura|Lain Iwakura]] 06:04, 7 June 2006 (CDT)</small> Well I've just about finished it - if i've forgotten some things then people can add them later. Unless anyone objects then we can replace the main page with it soon. <small>--[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 09:56, 8 June 2006 (CDT)</small> Two thumbs up: clean and efficient <small>--[[User:Kanif|Kanif]] 16:53, 13 june 2006 (EST)</small> Since babel is starting, maybe a "(work in progress)" beside "Alphabetically Categorised Articles" would be in order for a while. <small>--[[User:Kanif|Kanif]] 17:07, 13 june 2006 (EST)</small> Maybe we can put the contents in a little box :) --[[User:Sppt|Sppt]] 13:21, 14 June 2006 (CDT) I've took out most of the HTML in [[Fr:Page principale]]. Is it ok? ''Fits well for a test page.''. --[[User:Kanif|Kanif]] 06:39, 16 June 2006 (CDT) Absolutely fine. I don't mind - I think most people also find it easier to edit in wiki-code but I just don't get tables in it - that's why the new Main Page is nearly all HTML. --[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 14:32, 16 June 2006 (CDT) == Babel == This babel is quite a load of work. Makes me amazed at how big this wiki really is. :I know, I've done tons of pages. :) <small>--http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/1144/duckie0fq.gif[[User:Lainiwakura|Lain Iwakura]] 10:22, 22 June 2006 (CDT)</small> == French branch == I was wondering if a translation effort would be welcomed. Is it?  Huh? There are not that much French people playing wurm :p I would be useless And how could we translate the 1000+ article? It's a lot of work, and I don't think that there are a lot of people who can speak french who want to translate the whole wiki :O Up to now, me and [[User:Kiri|Kiri]] are on it. We tried it on the [[Page principale|Main page]]. --[[User:Kanif|Kanif]] 14:03, 14 June 2006 (CDT) I asked [[User:Egal|Egal]] and she said that the french pages should be prefixed with either "Francais:" or "Fr:". I think "Fr:" would be just fine. Onward, "Es:", "Ru:", might become interesting. --[[User:Kanif|Kanif]] 02:05, 16 June 2006 (CDT) Would it be possible for Wurmpedia to detect the language preference As of the visitor's browser and redirect those who chose fr, fr-CA, fr-FR, fr-BE, fr-CH and on to [[Fr:Page principale]]? --[[User:Kanif|Kanif]] 22:10, 16 June 2006 (CDT)   That would 2015 editor accounts may be possible if we asked Egal to make a script that does it. For example there is a wiki.php script which is executed when the user clicks "Wiki" in the menu, instead of going straight to the wiki, then the wiki.php script finds the language and redirects the user onwards to the real wiki. --[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 05:32, 17 June 2006 (CDT) My proposed code is below:  <?php // Language Redirect Script by Graham Edgecombe aka Ancient // // Find the user's language $language = $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE']; // Default it to English if it is not set obtained by completing the browser if(!isset($language)) { $language = "en"; } // A list of all the languages supported and their "Main Page" names is defined here $languages_supported = array ( "en" => "Main Page" "fr" => "Page principale" "de" => "Hauptseite" ); // Checks to see if the users language is supported if(isset($languages_supportedapplication form located at [$language])) { // If so redirect them to their language's home page which is "language code":"Main Page in that language" - of course this means English goes to "En:Main Page" so we will have to make a redirect in the wiki to go back to "Main Page" header("Location: http://wwwforum.wurmonline.com/wiki/" index. $language . ":" . $languages_supported[$language]); } else { php?/topic/ Otherwise redirect them to the Main Page, this could also be another page saying that the language is not supported header("Location: http://www.wurmonline.com/wiki/Main Page"); } ?> -126364-[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 05:28, 17 June 2006 (CDT) The web server has a function that, when there is a page that has multiple copy but all ending with a language code (ex.: index.html.en, index.html.fr, index.html.frwurmpedia-CH, index.html.es) then it returns the file that match the language of the browser. It isn't turned on by default. I don't think that would work with the wiki editor- it would do a different index.php file for each language, what we want is a different page in the wiki database, and that has to be done by passing a different parameter to the script, not by finding a different index.php file. --[[User:Ancient|Ancient]applications/ this URL] 01:55, 18 June 2006 (CDT) ***Did anything ever become of this idea? The implementation seems sound enough. <smallbr>--http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/8964/duckieta2.gif[[User:Lainiwakura|Lain Iwakura]] 03:48, 21 December 2006 (CST)</small> == German translation == Well I've translated the Main Page into [[De:Hauptseite|German]]. It has been done by using my The current knowledge, looking up words in dictionaries and not translating the complicated bits - just removing them! There are probably some mistakes in there - if someone finds any and knows German then please fix them! --[[User:Ancient|Ancient]] 02:50, 18 June 2006 Wurmpedia Manager is Marni (CDTor bwg).  == Dutch Translation ==i guess since were having german and french translations that a dutch one would also be in place? --[[User:Sppt|Sppt]] 07:29, 18 June 2006 (CDT) :If you know Dutch then it would be great! --[[User:AncientMarni|Ancient]] 06:48Marni, 19 June 2006 (CDT) ::dutch is my mother language::edit: i'm thinking of making a program either in php or java to grab the page, then i run some. replaces over it to translate it, write it to a file, and then i'm going to check them and upload it. but the thing is: i have to think of a way to do this  ::edit of the edit: i managed to do it using the curl library, code is [http://pastebin.com/720817 here]<br> ::note: this is only the source grabber, i'm working out how to strip out the content ~ [[User:Sppt|SpptWurmpedia Manager]] 15:24, 19 June 2006 (CDT) == Signature generator == Today I made a signature generator for my Wurm fansite. You can access it [http://www.grahamedgecombe.com/wurm/index.php?c=signature.php here]. You can choose a background image, add some text and put some dynamic text in. At the moment you have three choices for dynamic text: number of players on home server, number of players on wild server or number of players on all the servers. It might be slightly off to what you see on [http://www.wurmonline.com www.wurmonline.com] because it only updates every 5 minutes. Here's a sample signature: http://www.grahamedgecombe.com/wurm/sig.php?r=255&g=255&b=255&img=6&text_dynamic=pcTotal&dynx=200&dyny=80&text_normal=%3D+Ancient+-+Wurm+Online+Player+-+Member+of+DarkWood+%3D&staticx=5&staticy=20&/file001.pngIt exports HTML, wikicode and BB code. Thought it might be interesting to put it up here. --[[Usertalk:AncientMarni|Ancienttalk]] 07:33, 30 December 2006 (CST) Another thought: maybe we could make a player count for the main page. Anybody like the idea? --Ancient 0701:39, 30 December 2006 27 July 2015 (CSTCEST)
