== Hi! A question about templates... ==

I found your name trough the main page and you seemed to know a lot of EditThis, so I wanted to ask this: is there any way to get Wikia character infobox templates (like [http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Order_of_the_Phoenix_staff this one I made]) to work in an EditThis wiki? The templates work fine in Wikia, but whenever I try to transfer the template to EditThis, (almost) everything is messed up: the image place has random pieces of template's code, white areas are black in EditThis etc.

Could this be fixed? Thanks!

:Hi there, first of, I wanted to redirect comments to this disuccion page because I thought that I won't sign in on editthis.info/wiki often enough as it seems that the cookie for editthis.info will keep me logged in only on my wiki (/dbhbonn) or on the administration wiki (/wiki). I do however see now, that this is yields other problems, as you weren't signed on my wiki when asking. So I don't know who you are. Could you point me to on of your userpages?
:Anyways, regarding you problem on templates:
:I copied the two templates you mentioned on my wiki ([[Template:TestOrderPhoenix]] and [[Template:T]] and tried to use them here [[Noch_eine_testseite]]. It didn't work. So I added some text at the begining of the Template and it seems the problem is that the template uses default values. I created two templates on /wiki and a page using them. You can find this page here http://editthis.info/wiki/TemplateTestpage . I guess the template should work if you delete all the <nowiki>|</nowiki>. It will however probably loose some functionality, when you do so.
:I hope that helps. [[User:Jan|Jan]] 22:22, 26 August 2006 (EDT)

Hi again and thanks for such a fast reply!
I tried it again but I dind't save it since it (still) didn't seemed to work and I found the reason: I made the original template for [http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page SW Fanon in Wikia], which uses MediaWiki [http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Version Version 1.7alpha], while EditThis uses 1.5. 
:Anyway, I'm [http://editthis.info/gingapedia/User:Admin Phoenix], the admin of [http://editthis.info/gingapedia/ Gingapedia]. 

I guess that I'll have to work without that template for now, because I don't know much about [http://editthis.info/gingapedia/Header coding].

Thanks for everything!

== MediaWiki update? ==

Hi again, Jan. This is your random idiot, who asked about those templates. (See above)
Anyway, I was just wondering...where is Rob Kohr and how exactly is the MediaWiki update going?
Are we going to see MediaWiki 1.6 before Christmas? :D
