Also, is there a NIWA IRC or something? Who would I ask questions to? Is anyone tech-savvy willing to help us set up? Emmett 18:24, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
- You can ask questions here. Right now the users can help by importing pages. --Porplemontage 19:18, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
- Two problems with this:
- Only admins can use Special:Import and Special:Export.
- I can't import pretty much anything. I think it has to do with file size, possibly maximum upload size (2MB? you may need to increase it), and browser timeouts. Toomai 19:35, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
- Normal users can use import here, and I was using export on Wikia. The upload size is 100MB, but I know there's still a problem with keeping the session. I'm looking into that; maybe we can use a bot. --Porplemontage 19:46, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
- Two problems with this:
- Alright, large imports work now. The limit is 100MB but also consider the amount of time these things take to upload. --Porplemontage 20:13, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
What about images? Only the description is imported, not the image itself. Toomai 18:41, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
- I'm looking into it, but we can focus on pages for now. --Porplemontage 19:18, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
Would you happen to be...
The same one and only Porplemontage who created mariowiki.com? If so, then I find it quite hilarious that we'd cross paths once again. MC Hammer Bro. 19:58, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
- Oh, you... --Porplemontage 20:13, 28 September 2010 (EDT)
File Imports
To resolve the file imports you guys seem to be having problems with, you may want to install the Multiple Upload extension, it comes in handy. Also I keep being prompted to add numbers after each edit... You should try limiting that to non-autoconfirmed Users Malake256 01:17, 29 September 2010 (EDT)
