Augment

 * I am editing this in My Template Sandbox currently. I have added named augments. I intend to place like augments on the same line to decrease the popup height. Since this is on your To Do List, what changes would you like made? -- Zav (Contributions • Message) 18:11, April 4, 2014 (EDT)
 * To be honest I'm fairly out of touch with the game and all of the changes, so I have no idea. Do what you think looks good and is functional and as I become more in touch with the game again, I can always adjust or improve it later.  If you stumble on coding or need an extension to make something work (I'm considering the Scribunto extension which will allow us to write short programs in Lua (which I do not know anything about at the moment other than it is a cross between template coding and a "regular" programming language)), let me know and I'll do what I can to make it happen.

 * Each color augment on the popups should now have an alphabetical listing. I removed ML notes. Pending no suggestions for further changes, I will move my changes over tomorrow after I double check for any mistakes. -- Zav (Contributions • Message) 21:12, April 5, 2014 (EDT)

Quests experiment

 * I'm working part-time on a dpl query that, while unfinished, could possibly be useful to you to get a collective and (hopefully) comprehensive view of parameters you're working on, like bestower and the XP array.


 * In a few days, after I've collected my thoughts in a coherent way, I might propose a couple of adjustments to Template:Quest (that I don't feel proficient enough to make myself).

 * There is a lot to DPL and I haven't had a chance to look it over yet so I can understand exactly what it does, but I'm thinking it might be the way to go to do what I want. We have multiple pages that could make use of this information and even the quest pages themselves are poorly using information that ends up needing to be entered multiple times.  I want almost all of the information available to other pages.    and the XP array was just the start of what I was doing.  ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 10:29, April 11, 2014 (EDT)

Green Steel Project

 * I went through your User:Agonshar/Links and notice that you are using external links instead of internal links, you may want to fix that up unless there is a specific reason for the external links. Also, I don't see any protection on any of those pages that you shouldn't be able to edit through or would require the admin bit.  Please give me a list of protected pages here that you will need to edit and I'll reply to each item in the list as protection reduced or sandbox changes. :) Happy editing! 15:25, May 5, 2014 (EDT)

Tabs

 * What exactly is the problem? I don't see anything wrong except you have a couple tabs you haven't yet created pages for. ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 18:10, May 25, 2014 (EDT)


 * But I dont know how I ended up with those tabs I haven't created pages for yet - where did I set that ?

Also my Links page isn't showing either, if I understood the methods I'd correct it and help others but I don't get the new tabs process at all.

 * Ahh. You're using 's template that isn't customizable. ShoeMaker (Contributions • Message) 19:10, May 25, 2014 (EDT)

How do I create my own template - thats how I ended up creating that AgonsharTabs.css page I have as well...

Agonshar (Contributions • Message) 19:38, May 25, 2014 (EDT)

Look here:

Template:AgonsharTabs

Now I just need it on all my pages - No clue how to..

Agonshar (Contributions • Message) 19:57, May 25, 2014 (EDT)
 * Change to  on each page, where N is the tab number from AgonsharTabs. --Zav (Contributions • Message) 20:22, May 25, 2014 (EDT)


 * Very accurate answer JJMC89, thank you. I did just as you said and then repeated on each page - looks like this process needs to be updated on the Template:UserTabs page that Ague wrote.

The next obstacle (and last also) is that I did the same on my Agonshar page (as you can see on my Template:AgonsharTabs page this is Tab number 7) - but when clicking the tab link it takes me to my General use home page.

Agonshar (Contributions • Message) 20:41, May 25, 2014 (EDT)

Solved:
 * Found a numerical listing error on my Template:AgonsharTabs page - this initially caused a highlighting error.
 * Remember that a user talk page is different in its URL to other pages, simply copy/paste the right URL into my Template:AgonsharTabs page - fixed.
 * I'll add this to my ToDo page of things.

Thanks for all the help guys.

Now to create my own signature template - how difficult can it be?! Agonshar (Contributions • Message) 20:59, May 25, 2014 (EDT)
 * I updated the UserTabs template to now be customizable if desired. Sorry it took me so long to get on it.  And as for customizing the sig template, take a look at mine and go from there.  -- Ague (Talk · Contribs · Blocks · Deletions · Imports · Patrols · Page Moves · Page Protects · User Merges · User Rights) 21:07, May 25, 2014 (EDT)
