User talk:Aretai~mediawikiwiki

Hi Aretai, if you're still interested in wiki skinning methods, I've made our wikitext skin from into a normal mediawiki extension now called Extension:WikiSkin. It makes managing skin content and layout far simpler since it's all done in-wiki. Also you might be interested in Extension:Livelets which will be working in conjunction with wikitext skin, to make the mediawiki interface dynamic without unnecessary page refreshes. --Nad 09:54, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Aretai, please ask the author Flashlight84 about the Notes Extension :-) Greetings -- :Bdk: 01:43, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi Nad, could you let me know how can I install expendable left menu - similar to the one on this side? You can also answer on my (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User_talk:Aretai | Mediawiki talk pages), thx in advance.
 * Hi Aretai, I haven't made an extension for the expandable sideBar, but its quite simple to replicate by looking at the code in OrganicDesign:Wikitext-skin.php. There's a Javascript function added to the head scripts, and a link to call it added to the action links. --Nad 12:47, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Your wiki skin differs a little bit from MonoBook. Do you think it's possible to have such menu in MonoBook as well. If yes what needs to be changed? Could you give me the contact to the user who has modified your skin? As I'd be also interested in some other details (Sitemap), flash recent changes, etc, Thx in advance. --Aretai
 * Our skin is very different as it allows the skin itself to be made from wikitext articles, but it still uses monobooks portlets and acton links. The javascript function is still added in the &lt;head> section of MonoBook.php within a &lt;script type="text/javascript">, here's the function

function sideBarState(a,b) { sb = document.getElementById("entire-side-bar"); show = document.getElementById("show-side-bar"); hide = document.getElementById("hide-side-bar"); sb.style.display = hide.style.display = a;	show.style.display = b;	} and there's a section that adds the action links which looks like this
 * foreach($this->data['content_actions'] as $key => $tab)

just before that line you add a new &lt;li> to call the function which looks like this  &#9658; &#9668;  p.s. I'm the author of all the MediaWiki code on organicdesign, I've added some of the extensions we use to this wiki, see my local user page for details (hold off on using the tree, because a more efficient version is being made today since a client needs their trees to be transcluded, but current one doesn't work when transcluded). --Nad 20:22, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello Aretai,

would it be possibel that you rename your extension to something like "LinkToNetwork" or "LinkNetwork"? Link is to broad.

 * Done. If I find out you got this name and get $ for using it I'll hack you;)
