User talk:Muhandes

Muhandes - the crib sheet is for reporting a game breaking bug, not just for mods/admins.

There are about 15 of them out in the game currently(crib sheets, not bugs)

Yes, I know. They are given *by* admins.

Data Namespace

I've set up some very, very rough test data at Template:Test, Template:Data1, Data:Test, and Test. I'm not sure why this isn't working exactly the same as on the KoLWiki--here, you have to prefix the Data namespace with a colon to make it act like a template (see Template:Data1). Additionally, the URL used to access the item page seems to affect whether the metadata method can be viewed or not... compare Test with Test. The URL without "index.php5?title=" is yielding a junk page. I think someone with access to the actual server is going to have to twiddle with the MediaWiki configuration to make the Data namespace "official" and default to template-style interpretation. Is anyone with admin status able to do this? I found this documentation.

But as the files above demonstrate, it is in principle possible to use a Data namespace to reduce the amount of nuisance work on this Wiki. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that. --Bagatelle ^T/_C 06:08, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

As far as I could see from the documentation the way to do this is to define Data as a namespace. I think only Olaf can do that.--Muhandes 07:03, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Finding out item ids

Since you are the most active user of the wiki in the last days, I thought I'd ask you: how do you find out Item-IDs of items that are not usable in any way? I'm puzzled of that... Thanks in advance. --Alarion 13:08, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

If they can be put in a DC the ID is available there. Otherwise I ask Ryme. --Muhandes 13:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Ah, okay, didn't think about that. Thanks a bunch. --Alarion 13:41, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

A) Through a listbox source. Assemble, Weld, Send Message, Combat Items, Combat Skills, Buff Skills, Noncombat Skills are all candidates.

B) Through Wear Item source. Every equippable item will have a line of wear.php?equip=###&pwd=Blahblahblah. The equip # is the item ID. The pwd is for session checking. [May work for things that the above don't work. IE: Ham Banner] Also. Use Item source. use.php?which=###&pwd=blahblahblah. [May be useful to determine for non-tradable consumable items.]

C) Sell item source. Works same way as a listbox, just it's a combobox [or did I get the two confused, and otherway around? Eh, who cares].

D) Auction House. To be exact, the link to each item is.. auctions-itemlist.php?itemID=### Really, if you have to ask what the item ID is at that point, there's no helping you. [May work for very expensive items that only a few exist, and are in the AH]

E) Radio buttons [like the Wok of Stars] or pretty much any place where you have to submit a choice. Multi-use, etc... If you have to tell it what item you want to interact, the source is likely going to show the item.

F) Memento Display [part of the reason why I have everything that I can plop in there, actually]. I'm sure there's other ways. --Valera 08:13, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Help!

I've written this article but I'm afraid I haven't got resources to spade it. Can you send someone to investigate? SunWukong 03:13, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Don't worry, The People (tm) will take care of it.--Muhandes 07:04, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
