Skin customizations
Some of the contents on this page needs to be rewritten to reflect that skin customisations might alter the location or other aspects of the appearance of, e.g. the sidebar, the personal (user) toolbar, etc. I recommend introducing these elements by name, and then stating that the default skin used in MediaWiki sites X in one location, Y in another, but warns that use of a different skin can cause this to change. robchurch | talk 04:48, 22 November 2006 (UTC).

Link colors
Is it mentioned anywhere that (if the default skin is used) blue links indicate an article is available and red links indicate an article does not exist yet? -- oKto siTe -  talk  19:19, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Localsettings.php
The links to the old LocalSettings.php page on LocalSettings.php should now be changed to mw:Manual:LocalSettings.php, and as the page is protected. I simply can't do it. - Foxhill 03:15, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Just what is the old LocalSettings.php page about? --Ravuni 11:58, 13 September

User Links
Can I add a new link to the User Links in my own wiki? Black Rose 06:37, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

The text says

"edit (may be view source if anonymous editing is enabled, the page is in the MediaWiki namespace or the page is protected)"

Shouldn't it be "...anonymous editing is disabled..."? hello test from outsider ....???

It doesn't work!!!
I can't create my own SideBar ???? ... I modified the MediaWiki:SideBar as written in the guide but nothing changes!!!


 * It is named Mediawiki:Sidebar and not Mediawiki:SideBar. --213.214.18.64 11:04, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Editing the Toolbox
How can I add a simple Link to the Toolbox? --213.214.18.64 11:05, 24 July 2007 (UTC)


 * It's not possible to customise the toolbox through a message at this time; items in this list are generated based on the page context, so it's not too reliable to slurp random links in. robchurch | talk 17:11, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Feeds in Toolbox
Hi, I'm changing the style of my wiki, but somehow the feeds(rss, Atom) are messed up in my toolbox and i don't know why... do i fix it via main.css°? has anybody an idea!? greets Moonlight 08:39, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Navigation in lowercase
Since a few days my own wiki is completely lowercase. that means the navigation on the left and the navigation on the top is no more the way it used to be. this also effects the search. the search does not differentiate between FooBar, Foobar and foobar. What did i customize (accidently) and how can i restore this?

Jumptonavigation and Jumptosearch - Getting rid of them, please...
Because I've spent several hours looking and still haven't found the answer, I am doing everything I can to withhold my seething criticisms of how difficult it is to find support at MediaWiki for such simply configuration and customization steps such as relocating specific portlets by name and altering default placeholders from the initial install.

Okay, here's my simple question: After you install MediaWiki, every page comes with a "Jump to: navigation, search" header on every single article you create.

I would like to delete it. How? Please and thank you.

As a matter of interest, should you choose to defend the ease of navigation around MediaWiki, I would challenge you to find the answer to my question in less than ten searches without prior knowledge of where it is located. You'd think browsing every result of the word "jump" might do it, but nope. And here I am. --Randall00 22:31, 24 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Set
 * Alternatively, if you need more flexibility, open /skins/MonoBook.php and edit the code as needed (searching for "jump" in the file will get you to the spot you want). There might also be a way to do this using CSS.


 * Finding the code-hacking solution was pretty simple once I figured out what you were referring to (I hadn't really noticed those invisible accessibility divs before), although finding the simpler, variable-setting solution took a bit of puzzling and Googling. (Most of my "searches" were in the code and on Google; in a bit of foolishness on my part, I didn't actually search for "jump" on here until after I wrote the rest of this: I then found this page as the ninth result of the search.)


 * Admittedly, the documentation here tends not always to give a step-by-step walkthrough (walkthroughs can have problems of their own, of course), and isn't always able to predict what visitors are really looking for (no mean feat when it comes to people looking to make customizations!), but if you want to change the layout of your wiki, you should be prepared to go into the skin files (or be familiar with CSS, which I am not very). (If you think that there should be an easier way, then this is a case of your needs not coinciding with the developers' goals.)


 * I hope that your tone is the result of genuine frustration and not an intentional provocation. We're all doing our best here. :) —Emufarmers(T 02:54, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey, thanks a lot; that's by and large the most polite and helpful response I've had here! I apologize for the overbearing tone, it's just that I've become quite jaded when it comes to expecting anything useful out of "help" sections in almost any administrative internet environment.


 * I eventually did actually find the solution that you're referring to, however it still doesn't work and I suppose more investigation will be required on my end to figure that part out. --Randall00 18:13, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hrmm...any known reason why it wouldn't work if I added  to LocalSettings.php? I even changed DefaultSettings.php to see if that would work and I'm still getting those jumpto links. --Randall00 19:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * $wgDefaultUserOptions changes the default settings for new accounts (and for people who haven't logged in); existing accounts will retain the preferences they were created with unless changed manually. You might be able to change all existing users' preferences with the userOptions.php maintenance script.  Also, keep in mind that users will still be able to restore the jump links through their preferences (though there are no doubt ways to prevent that too, if you wish). —Emufarmers(T 01:06, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Toolbox Links
Everywhere i've read it says that the links can not be customized. However I ran an update the the latest Mediawiki version, and the Upload file link is sending it to wikipedia!! and not not my own. How did this happen and what do i do to fix it (without starting over).

Resolution..
Link was being modified by page: Mediawiki:common.js //Fix "Upload file" link when using the secure proxy //This is a workaround that can be removed when bug 10843 is fixed addOnloadHook(function {   if (document.getElementById("t-upload"))    {        document.getElementById("t-upload").getElementsByTagName("a")[0].href = wgArticlePath.replace("$1", "wikipedia:Upload")    } }) change "wikipedia:Upload" to "Special:Upload"

Navigatability
I think that in articles like this:

Comparison_of_BitTorrent_Clients

or this:

Comparison_of_file_sharing_applications

people should have an interface to filter applications that meet certain criteria that they choose.

Sidebar Navigation section needs updating.
In the admin section, it tells the wiki admin to change MediaWiki:Mainpage-text to change the link name of the main page. in the most recent release that page is MediaWiki:Mainpage-description --67.241.177.245 15:52, 28 December 2008

Thermal conductive ceramic sheet plays an important role in electronic components
Thermal conductive ceramic sheet plays an important role in electronic components

According to the statistical data, the reliability of the system decreases by 10% when the temperature of electronic components increases by 2 degrees.The service life of 60 degrees leakage current is only 1/6 of that of 20 degrees leakage current.Temperature is one of the most critical factors affecting the reliability of machine and equipment systems.This requires a disruptive innovation to effectively limit the leakage current of chassis and electronic devices, that is, thermal design solutions.

One, how can we really use the machine shell heat?

The opportunity for flexible silicone rubber thermal insulation materials comes.Flexible thermal conductive ceramic pieces of rubber insulation pad is heat conduction page of the raw materials, sheet material, can according to the size of the hot power electronic devices and arbitrary cut, superior heat transfer of the ability to work, and the characteristics of the insulation layer, its efficacy is add hot filling power electronics device and the heat pipe radiator space inside, is instead of the thermal conductive silicone thermal conductive paste and mica sheet (material) of thermal conductivity of the best commodity dual heat pipe cooling system software.

The heat transfer coefficients of the commodity are 1W/mK and 2W.Resistance voltage breakdown value in 10 kv/mm or higher, in the vast majority have insulation regulation can be used in electronic products. Processing its thickness from 0.5 mm to 10 mm, 1 plus 3 t per 0.5 mm, 0.5 mm 1 mm, 1.5 mm 2 mm to 5 mm, could be up to 10 mm requirement, its thickness is not the same in order to convenient for designers to heater, and the size of the gap between heat pipe cooling device to adopt different alternated goods, more than the best yes add filling effect.If the heat transfer coefficient exceeds 1W, TP150/TP200/TP250/TP300+ h40-t10-s are all flexible thermal conductive ceramic plates, and their heat transfer coefficient is 1.5w /2W/ 2.5w /3W successively.

Flame retardant fire safety features to UL 94 v 0 regulation, and accord with the European Community SGS environmental protection product certification, the operating temperature is usually to 40 ℃ ~ 150 ℃, thus, it is a good thermal conductive materials, and it is very soft, designed as a use of clearance transfer the design manufacture of calorific value, can add filling gaps, in hot position and the position of heat convection heat pipe cooling, improve heat transfer area, also has the shock absorber with insulation sealing effect and so on, satisfy the social machine equipment practical thin design scheme of the regulation, is a process performance and practicability of the new material. And its thickness application field is wide,Very suitable for car, display screen, computer and switch power supply and other electronic products manufacturing industry.

Ii. Electronic application of heat-conducting ceramic plates: In the daily life of normal work, thermal conductivity ceramic chip has gradually applied in electronic electrical goods control mainboard interface, block of inside and outside of the motor and floor MATS, electronic electrical, mechanical equipment, car, notebook and desktop PC disc machine, DVD and all need to add filling and heat pipe heat dissipation module of raw materials.To use silicone rubber as raw material, coupled with other auxiliary materials such as hydroxides, the production and processing of this heat transfer medium raw material, the key role is designed for use gap transfer heat, together with insulation layer, shock absorbers, seals and other effects.

Iii. Usage of thermal conductive ceramic tablets:

1. Maintain the washing of the finished surface of the thermal conductive ceramic sheet to prevent the fouling of the thermal conductive ceramic sheet, and the worse the self-adhesion and sealing heat transfer of the polluted thermal conductive ceramic sheet will be.

2. When taking thermal conductive ceramic pieces, the thermal conductive ceramic pieces with a large total area should be clamped from the position of management center, while the foam board with a small total area should not be clamped. Due to the uneven support of the thermal conductive ceramic pieces, deformation will be caused, which will harm the actual operation of events, and even destroy the ceramic rolls.

3. Take the sheet with the left hand and tear off at least one side of the release membrane with the left hand.It is not allowed to tear the double-sided original film together, reducing the frequency and total area of immediate contact with the heat-conducting ceramic sheet, and maintaining the self-adhesive and heat transfer property of the heat-conducting ceramic sheet so as to damage it.

4. Tear off one side of the original film and face the house towards the heat pipe radiator.Slow learning to put down thermal conductive ceramic pieces.Care must be taken to prevent bubble formation.

5. If the bubble is caused in the actual operation, the process mentioned above can be repeatedly pulled on the ceramic coil, or the bubble can be gently erased by special tools. The energy is only too large to prevent the thermal conductive ceramic sheet from being harmed.

6. Tear off one side of the original film and put it into the heat pipe radiator. Tear off the last one of the original film with a small amplitude to prevent contusion or pull on the heat-conducting ceramic sheet.

7. After tightening or using the strong adhesive heat-conducting ceramic sheet, release the necessary working pressure on the heat pipe radiator and store it for a period of time to ensure that the heat-conducting ceramic sheet is fixed well.

In general, the actual heat dissipation effect of heat-conducting ceramic pieces is very good, and in the whole process of installation of heat-conducting ceramic pieces, it is suggested that we should be cautious and not be too impatient to achieve, causing harm to bubble and heat-conducting ceramic pieces, resulting in luxury, waste of money and delay of time.
