New thread for problems with the forums or other parts of the site, and for me to post some updates I do. If you have any (technical) problem, please post in this thread.

Small Killboard Update

I changed the killboard to store killmail originals as posted by a user in the database. This should retain the "faction" header (and any other additions to the km format the CCP comes up with), even though the killboard does not support that information yet. If you want a kill mail to be added like this, please just re-post it to the killboard - it'll be automatically added.

I'd like to take a second to state that it's a braindead design idea to re-create the killmail text from the parsed values in the database, instead of storing the original kill mail in the database. Thank you for listening.

Not a report of a problem, more a desired feature.

Could we have an obvious link (like the banner on the killboard) back to the forums from the Wiki home-page, please?

Thanks.

I added a link, I hope that's roughly what you had in mind? It's not too "obvious", but I'm not sure where to add an "obvious" link - if you want it somewhere else, let me know.

Ah, found it.

Looks like a function button

Thx.

Better now? I can also move it to the left next to the [[pagename]] link if you prefer that. (I seriously have no preferences)

I definately like it better that way

I'd move it left next to the pagename myself, but that's just an aesthetic tweak.

It's there now, that's what really matters.

Thx again.

Not quite sure this is a technical problem, but I'll give it a shot. I used to be able to enter the wiki from the forums a month or two ago, but now it says I don't have appropriate permissions. Is this because I'm not an active pilot in EM (fine if it is) or is there a lose bit somewhere? Thanks.

Seems whatever permissions you had to give you access to the wiki have been revoked - yes, the wiki is supposed to be EM only I'm afraid.
