I was goofing around looking at some javascript code (inspired by Rob's very cool image slider) and stumbled upon this:
http://www.codelifter.com/main/javascript/draggableslideshow.html

I whipped up a quick demo here:
http://my-wd-local.wikidot.com/blog:draggable-slideshow

I'd like to see if there's a way to do this without trapping the slideshow within the bounds of the iframe. I have permissions set so you can view the source of my page. I'm not sure if this is really useful or just a novelty at this point, but I thought it was enough fun to share.

I made an example for Ed that can be found at http://jjs.wikidot.com/

I really like the theme you have on that site, Well done on such a great design!

Thanks Shane! That's just a cloned and stripped-down example for Ed though, the original site is at http://www.trumpetexercises.net

Ed can probably figure most of it out

Not so far. I haven't been able to figure out a good workaround to the problem of including pages that are formatted by a live template without creating a lot of manual editing work. Feel free to review this thread and see if you have any ideas!

can you be a bit more specific please ?

Until then, probably by using the html code/iframe method.

I'm having problems with including pages that use live templates. Ed is currently helping me with that and now I feel like I'm harnessing the whole Wikidot community to solve my problems and starting multiple discussion threads that all lead to this same problem.

Okay, well if you still need help, feel free to ask questions :) Ed can probably figure most of it out by directly looking at your site anyway

weedarr, free accounts have unlimited bandwidth. When you pay for a Pro account, you are paying for other features (bandwidth it not one of them because you'd have to be strange to pay for bandwidth when you get it for free anyway! :D)

There are some major disadvantages with having everything separated into separate sites, I'll give you that… but there are also some advantages that are worth doing it for… i.e. breaking the workload into manageable pieces.

Designs for future Wikidot features are here: http://projects.wikidot.com/section:Designs (used to be at pieter's blog)

All you need to do is create a new thread and explain the feature as best as you can :) People will edit your post and turn it into a workable design document and eventually it'll be picked up and implemented, assuming it's possible.

No, that was not my thinking too ! I was only surprised by the question itself.

Thanks to inform us!

The admins will take a discussin on this - and perhaps "block" these pages in a first step…
But that is not my solitude decision. It will take a llittle time.

Edit:

Question: Where is the link to the sandbox gone ?

I cannot find it!

of course, I remember the name iof the site and can key in it… but…hoew does new visitors find it ?

Edit2: Thanks to leiger, who changed the pages back , out of their history..

Assuming there's no workaround on our end, where's the best place to make these suggestions, have them be heard and considered, and if they make sense, have them be recorded in some likely workplan?

I can see there are efficiencies in splitting the community's work and dialogue into different sites, but it's confusing to have so many, and it seems to disperse a lot of the creative energy that used to be concentrated here.

Can't see any reason why he'd say no, to be honest, but will wait anyway.

In the meantime, you should try setting up an admin:themes page for your CSS code. It means that any changes you make to your theme are recorded in the page's history.

There's a bunch of themes available on http://themes.wikidot.com that you might want to look at.

As for using this theme… that's up to the guy that designed most of it! ;-)

I couldn't see any post on this - but presumably people have noticed that the information pages in the Sandbox have been vandalised?

'What is a wiki site' and 'how to edit pages' have both been changed to irrelevant content.

Agreed. The file upload system needs a massive redesign IMO, to appear similar to how the notificiation pop-ups do.

And I also use the old uploader:

When wanting to overwrite a filename
When I'm behind a corporate firewall, and the normal one doesn't work
