gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Hey guys, I'm getting some pms from peeps saying that they are having problems with the wiki. Sometimes you can get to the wiki and to pages...but if the log in didn't synch into the forum, you may not have been signed in. So please check along the top right of your page to make sure that you're logged in. And, if this problem is persisting even after you're logged in, please post to this thread and we'll look at it....though I'm pretty sure that nothing was changed. Cheers! gogo Link to comment
Shard 0 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I was logged in and had that problem. I tried some moment ago to log off and than relog in. I still got the Error message Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'm on this now Shard, first off...are you able to log in? gogo Link to comment
Shard 0 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Yup, I have no problem logging in. Even more, I don't need to manually log in because it logs me in automatically. Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 OKay, I've just effected a new permission group status... please log out of forum and wiki....then log back into wiki first. Can you see an edit button now? gogo Link to comment
Shard 0 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I got the error message when logged in, and I could see the edit tag. Anyway, I logged off and than logged in. I still can see all the tags (edit & co.) and I still have the error message. I don't know if this is normal or not, but I noticed that my username and the voice "my talk" in the upper right corner are red, while all the other (my preferences,...., log out) are blue. The error says that I need to be part of one of the following usergroups to be able to access the wiki: Administrator, Sacred Wiki Editor, Fellowship, Sacred Game Forum Staffer, Moderator, Captains. Maybe in some way it does not "see" me as part of one of them? Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 your group status has been changed, so you should be allowed to edit...I'm gonna do more checking on associations between the wiki and our forum. I'll be back in thirty mins on this. My apologies regarding this btw, and hopefully it will be sorted out very shortly. gogo Link to comment
Shard 0 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 boooohhhh /cry /cry!! Ze Wiki H8s me! I still have the same problem. Oh well, I need to leave soon, I'll try again when I'll be back in 5-6 hours. You know how they say.... time repair things... (theorem of the lazy person) Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 arrrrrrghhhhhhhh big frustration here on my end with this. As it turns out noone at all now even some of the groups that are listed that can see it, for some reason as of early this morning have no access to the wiki...in effect, making the pages not even viewable. *computer voice* working....working...working... please stay tuned for further news. gogo Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 Fixed! Please post if there are any more problems... big apologies for the downtime guys! gogo p.s. sorry for the double post Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 You know how they say.... time repair things... (theorem of the lazy person) lol Oh how I wish! All taken care of folks. Link to comment
myles 2 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I can't get in at all! I cleared my cookies and it still won't work. It just kept saying something like "the server reset while loading". Halp! Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Oh ack! Bad wiki, bad! I just had a look at the user list on the wiki Myles and it shows that you do not have any permissions. Some other people appear the same way as well. I'm afraid this is a wee bit difficult to resolve on the fly because when I make changes to user permissions I am not given any sort of update on a users status. Only when a user logs into the forum here will the info update it seems. As a reference, these are the folks who appear not to have any permissions associated to the wiki: (It appears that in order to update your status that you need to log in to the forum first and then log in to the wiki) # Funkilicious # Gial # KOTR # Katran # Llama # Myles # Pevil # TherionX # Thorin # Zinsho Do to the complexity of our permissions set up it's been a bit tricky but we're working on it. Just so you all know I've made some adjustments to the wiki configuration with regards to logging in/out. The following were set to yes. I've turned all three off in the hopes that it might resolve some cookie and log in issues: Wiki LoginLogging in to wiki also logs the user in into the forum (default=true) Yes No Wiki Logout Logging out from the wiki also logs the user out from the forum (default=true) Yes No Wiki Auto Login If the user is logged in into a forum session, then the user is automatically logged in into the wiki. (default=true) Yes No Link to comment
PowerPyxel 33 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Hi, my problem is that I'm not allowed to write NEW articles in the wiki. I just can modify them and create links. Same for discussions - I can create one only for an existing article but not for a new one. Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Hey hey powerPyx. I just adjusted your permissions. Can you try again? You'll need to log out of the forum and the wiki. Then log back in. Link to comment
PowerPyxel 33 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 okely dokely -- works now thx Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Ah good stuff PowerPyx. On closer inspection it looks as though one particular permission mask we created for wiki users has been unassociated from the people we gave it to... Thank god we don't have too many folks on the wiki, lol. It's a bit late at the moment but rest assured that in the new day we'll have you all wikified again. Link to comment
myles 2 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 my problem is that the page doesn't load at all, so how can I log in? Edit: Eh it just let in me... some kind of time lag? Anyway I'm in thx guys. I will post if there's problem again. Link to comment
PowerPyxel 33 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 maybe darkmatters should move to 1&1 hosting *caugh* *caugh* ... excuses to everybody for that advert spam ashes on my shoulders... Link to comment
Katran 0 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Mine have gone out of control too. Cant edit stuff. Link to comment
gial 2 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Sorry 'bout the pm gogo -- did not see this thread. You must be buried under an avalanche - hehe. Lot 'o work to get things started up. I tried deleting all my cookies and re-logging to no avail. One thing I did notice the other day -- I was logged into the wiki with my real life name, not as 'gial' (nor even 'Gial' - is username case sensitive?) Link to comment
gial 2 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) Very sorry to double post, but want anyone who has viewed the prior to see there is new material here. I just logged out of the Wiki, and back in using my real life name and fdm password. The wiki now shows me as me (not gial) and *lo and behold* has also blessed me with the "Edit" tab as well. Very interesting. Whoopie! I'm hooked. What a gas this is. Edited October 18, 2007 by gial Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Isn't it wicked? Gial, if you want, you can make another account so that your fdm account and wiki are the same...this way you'll be known for the credit for your contributions in the history tab. I'm just so happy you're enjoying the new toy. It's gotta be one of the most sweetest things for an active community around. gogo p.s. loooooooool, powerpyx...yeah yeah The servers we're on are pretty good actually but a bit too pricey..specially with a wiki...we'll be moving in a few months to bigger, better digs! p.s.s. Katran, are your edit abilities back as well? Link to comment
