Seeing as though Wikia just did a pretty big change to all wikias, I thought I'd give an update on some new and improved things around here.
We are 4 years old! I originally started this four years ago, in October 2008, so it's good to see that it's still up and running, even if it is fairly slow with just a few people.
I am in the process of streamlining the front page to hopefully stop some issues. I'm putting each section into its own template, so that there's no more issues of clashing between tables etc. on the main page.
I've also made the Recent Releases section on the main page more user-friendly. It will now randomly display one of a few recent releases in the four slots. This helps when multiple DVDs or CDs come out on the same day, and it also makes it easier to add newer items to.
As per Wikia's decision, we are stuck with the new navigation bar at the top. I've done a lot of work with it, so it should work well now.
If anybody has any suggestions for changes to any of these, feel free to let me know. Tardis1963 talk 10:19, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
It does show The Ambassadors of Death DVD four times over, sometimes different releases. Is it supposed to do that? Lego Whovian (talk) 10:27, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
If there's at least one of the four that's a different image to the others then it's working correctly. Tardis1963 talk 10:29, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
Well every time I look at it, the four images are the same. Lego Whovian (talk) 10:32, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
Same for me. I really don't know why it's doing that - each one is a separate template - Change, Change1, Change2 and Change3. They should all swap independently of each other. Tardis1963 talk 10:33, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
It is a complicated template. I suppose in time it will be working correctly. Lego Whovian (talk) 10:36, October 11, 2012 (UTC)
UPDATE: I have asked some people for help to make them display differently to each other, so I'll see if they get back to me. Tardis1963 talk 00:08, October 12, 2012 (UTC)
Sounds promising, I hope it works. Lego Whovian (talk) 13:14, October 12, 2012 (UTC)
ANOTHER UPDATE: Fixed! Turns out the random templated I copied from elsewere wasn't doing what I thought it was, so I switched to using a random extension which works great. There's only 6 options at the moment, but as I add more (hopefully there'll be about 50 or so recent items that could show at any time) there'll become more different.
