Wikidot Community

Hi and welcome on Wikidot platform !
There is no "web" installed on Wikidot, but it is possible for you to create a site to start your own wiki / web.
Or to start as only a member of another wiki's to learn how to post on forums or edit pages and wikis.

There are lots of hints and tips on:

• our community Howto's (http://community.wikidot.com/howto:_start )
• our Getting Help pages (http://community.wikidot.com/help:start )
• our Handbook in some languages (http://handbook.wikidot.com/
• and our official dokumentation on https://www.wikidot.com/doc:start

A lot to read.. but the learning curve is fast ! Believe me, I did the same 12 years ago.

also the system:members page shows you as a member of your old site.

What does you hinder to copy ( not clone !) the source of your old site to your own new one ?

And you should not given admin ship to anyone else, and not transfer master-admin/ Ownership to another member.

But the reasons why you have transferred the Masteradmin from yourself to another admin/ member could be existent till today ( no time anyway, no force for the responsibility, no knowledge of the necessary rights and so on.).
On the other side - the transfer could have happened in an moment of not really considering the followings,.

1. "Gave it to an admin" ? - means this you have transferred "MASTER-ADMIN" to another ( older) user ?
or are YOU the master-admin of the site today?
edit
I have seen on the site the (G5-01) Olympus (G5-01) Olympus Master Administrator
I have also seen you are not longer any responsible admin of this site.
2. The "clone" ( max 100 pages) is only doable if it is allowed in the admin part of the wiki.
3. No one can stop an admin from copying the pages manually - if the clone is not permitted - to another site
4. There is on your old site no one license shown under which the data is prtotected

I think you have made a big decision to transfer the responsibility to another admin ( I have seen the history of your old site and can see you created it) , why ever !
But the result is - it is no longer your problem

And nobody can do anything to re-install your Ownership ( it the Master admin shwon is true)

I am a new member of the Wakedot network and please help me to understand how this web works

I used to own aepassociation.wikidot.com, and gave it to an Admin i "trusted" //temporarily/, I've since been removed from the site altogether. Also, my website http://aepsandbox.wikidot.com was cloned and turned into http://aep-sandbox.wikidot.com. None of this was given with my permission, I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do.

At the moment I am a little surprised, that this will not work as I would have awaited…

Question: live templates ( see https://www.wikidot.com/doc-data-forms:start**) ** make with the data form fields definition a difference between "wiki code" and plain text ( in the field type).
Can you not use live templates with dataform for the category?

Hi everyone,
I have made a template named estrategy with the following code:

The calling code is:
[[include template:strategy
|name=Estrategy one
|examples= # example 1
#example 2
]]

The problem is all properties of the included template have to be plain text, is there a option to pass a wikidot sentence (such as a list or a link) to the example variable?

Thanks you in advance.

Regards,
Carlos.

Have a look on our left side menu - "what is hot": http://community.wikidot.com/whatishot

Im just curious, what is the #1 and #2 biggest websites that use wikidot, and I already know the #3 biggest site that use wikidot.

Wikidot won't support creating pages with a "mysite.wikidot.com/some-page/m", but you can do "mysite.wikidot.com/m:some-page" ("m" would be the category). I guess I'm confused about what you really want to do. In one post you said you want two different versions of the same page, but store the content on a single page. You really can't do that unless to are strictly formatting things with CSS and media queries. If you're talking about slightly modifying the content for the mobile version of a page (like reporting fewer columns of data in your tables), then creating a mobile category to hold those page makes a lot of sense in my opinion. They can have the same name as the non-mobile version of the page and you could construct the navigation menu so that the category can be used to build the links automatically so the user will stay "locked in" to the mobile category.

It would be easier to explain if I create a sample site to demo what I'm talking about. I don't have a ton of extra time at the moment, but I'll try to whip something up if I can grab some time this weekend.

As far as the future of Wikidot goes, your guess is as good as mine. I don't think it's going away anytime soon. The frustrating thing is that the developers have essentially disappeared and have made a conscious decision to ignore the user base. There has been no additional features added in years.

I know i should have responded early too this but i forgot about this website, and i'll tell u who memeulous is, he's a youtuber who tells his thoughts on youtube videos and plays children games and troll people for fun, and some of his fans are a little extreme

im new too (I left for like a long ass time) I don't really play football, but i still said it because i was trolling this one guy who was the most dumbest guy anyone could meet (pretty much he screwed up my head) I hope me and u can figure out what we can learn from this website

You are welcome! Please do not post external links to your business site(SEO-technic) with a free account, the spam-filter will remove the site, your posts and your account soon.

Hii, welcome and i am too new to this.

Not sure I understand the value of doing that Ed?

I would want the user to feel like they are on one site only, with no distractions or choices, bar one overall "escape" link to the home page of either desktop / mobile version.

I would propose to keep all page names exactly the same, with one disciplined exception being that the mobile version home page would start with /m and all subsequent pages would lead on with /m-whatever

My Top Bar solution for the mobile version is to hide the proper one and construct a dummy one via text in a cell.

I can see it working in reality (I've already tried it in my sandpit), if there are any purer solutions I'd love to hear them.

On a side note, do you think Wikidot is here to stay Ed? It seems eerily quiet… I'd hate to put my heart and soul into developing sites only to have them disappear some time.

Hello,
Hope this will surely helpout to resolve your issues.Both mobile/desktop on the same address will not have any problem but go through the LeoTechnosoft/hybris-vs-native

Unless the site owner changes it, the default WIkidot page for listing site members is sitename.wikidot.com/system:members, so if you check out http://magictavern.wikidot.com/system:members, you'll see a list of all members followed by the site admins. Click the link on the username and you can check out their public profile and find a link to send them a private message.

It looks like the site owner (Master Admin) hasn't been active since 2016, but admin user hexfield is still active. I'd reach out to hexfield and see where that takes you.

Good luck!

Then you could construct a link on each page to flip between the versions.

Maybe Helmut_pdorf can jump in here and offer his thoughts. I see this having similar functionality as the Handbook and other sites that manage different versions of the same page in different languages. I don't have any direct experience with that, but Helmut does and can probably offer better guidance here.

Hi there!

I've always liked the wiki of Hello from the magic tavern (magictavern (dot) wikidot (dot) com… Too low on karma to post a real link) because it's a wiki for one of my favorite podcasts. Unfortunately though, its design is absolutely terrible and a CSS facelift would make the site a lot more beautiful.
Unfortunately I can't find the name of the user(s) who's the admin for that page anywhere. Is there a way for me to acquire that information?

I might be able to enlist a team of volunteers to assist with the upload and maintenance Ed, so may not be so intimidating a task. The way I handle the pages offline is very methodical, so with a bit of bish-bosh in excel, hundreds of pages can be pre-prepared in one go.

I get the concept of page specific CSS module and use it often already. What I'm contemplating though, means radically different versions of the page, so much so that it seems beyond CSS to my mind.

I repeat my questions therefore -

(preferable single page solution) is there a way that I can upload two designs to a page and use page specific media query to guide which of the two should be shown depending on browser width?

or

(two page solution) can I introduce an alternative top bar with the /m (or whatever) address links i.e. have one top bar for the desktop version, and another for the mobile version?
