| 5 | + | ## Categories | |
| 6 | + | ||
| 7 | + | I created this page <https://wiki.freepascal.org/Install_on_aarch64_Arch_or_Manjaro> but it doesn't appear in the Install categories page here <https://wiki.freepascal.org/Category:Install> can anyone tell me why please? - Dieselnutjob [[User talk:Dieselnutjob|talk]] 5 August 2020. | |

| 11 | + | The system only re-indexes the categories once per day. Even then, MediaWiki sometimes requires someone with server access to run a manual re-indexing process. If your page does not show up after a couple of days, then log a request in the [Bugtracker](http://bugs.freepascal.org/). Trev ([[User talk:Trev|talk]]) 08:21, 5 August 2020 (CEST) | |

| 13 | + | ## Image database errors | |
| 14 | + | ||
| 15 | + | Trying to delete or overwrite existing images results in a database error. | |

| 22 | + | Fixed in the recent upgrade of MediaWiki to version 1.35.6 Trev ([[User talk:Trev|talk]]) 10:12, 25 May 2022 (CEST) | |

| 24 | + | ## Running logo | |
| 25 | + | ||
| 26 | + | Please, please, please get rid of the animated gif logo! I can't read the page with that thing never stopping. | |
| 27 | + | ||
| 28 | + | - You can get rid of the animated gif logo by logging in and choosing a different skin under **My Pages \| Preferences \| Appearance**. I use the Cologne Blue skin and it looks and works fine. | |
| 29 | + | - You can also flag it with AdBlock - this seems to get rid of it from any site that uses it. | |
| 30 | + | - easiest: use wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org instead of wiki.freepascal.org : <http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Site_Feedback> - Arent ([[User talk:Arent|talk]]) 13:00, 22 September 2016 (CEST) | |

| 32 | + | ## Editor | |
| 33 | + | ||
| 34 | + | Is this still alive? Any changes to get update for the mediawiki engine, the editor is so much developed [1](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Sandbox?veaction=edit) since the version in use in this wiki. Also something like [2](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree#The_.3Ccategorytree.3E_tag) might be handy for indexing ie. FPC category with lots of cluttered subcategories. --LV 15:51, 28 January 2016 (CET) | |

| 36 | + | ## Layout | |
| 37 | + | ||
| 38 | + | Please set default skin to vector instead of monobook in LocalSettings.php so that not-logged-in users (most?) do not see the archaic interface anymore. Arent ([[User talk:Arent|talk]]) 11:13, 21 September 2016 (CEST) | |

| 40 | + | `$wgDefaultSkin = "vector";` | |
| 41 | + | ||
| 42 | + | ## Help | |
| 43 | + | ||
| 44 | + | [[mediawiki:helppage]] should point to Help:Contents instead of default <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Contents> - Arent ([[User talk:Arent|talk]]) 12:25, 23 September 2016 (CEST) | |
