I've noticed, in some pages, the usage of both "armor"/"armour", "formula"/"formulae" etc.

I don't think there's a need for an official dialect. As long as people aren't stupid enough to have edit wars over this...

I'm sure we can all successfully figure out that armor and armour are the same thing.

How do I insert an image to the wiki? It presents me with this annoyingly unhelpful search bar instead of the usually url thingy...

SN0W37 · 04-13-2010, 11:12 AM

what type of image are you uploading?

One from photobucket. But when I click the "upload image" button, I get this "search for image" window that doesn't let me do anything, really.

SN0W37 · 04-13-2010, 11:28 AM

ahhh I see, upload the file first then add the image using that little window thing.

Lordshinjo · 04-13-2010, 03:21 PM

When I try to upload an image, I get an internal error :

The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver.

Because right now, this page is looking kinda ugly.

SN0W37 · 04-13-2010, 04:54 PM

Hmm interesting, when I first uploaded all the basic units and stuff the necromancers picture was working fine.

As to the other icons, I use a wc3 image extrator to get the image I need, open and save it in paint then upload it to the site.

If that still doesn't work I'll upload the images for the icons for you.

Good job on adding the summons by the way.

Lordshinjo · 04-13-2010, 05:13 PM

The image isn't an issue there, I extracted every one of the needed image, but I can't upload them because of this internal error.

I'm also trying to modify the Unit Block Title template to add an optional argument to display the spell summoning the unit, but the regular Wiki grammar isn't working at all. Any idea to fix that ?

(Also, BTNTreant is for the Treant Protector and the Sentinel Tower, not the base Treant.)

SN0W37 · 04-13-2010, 05:15 PM

Ya I ssee your problem, I'm getting the same error message. Seems like the site is having issues.

For the unit blocks I have no idea how to mod them, better to send Immolatus a PM seeing how he created them for the unit stats.

O and I fixed the treant icon.

Lordshinjo · 04-20-2010, 02:14 PM

Yay image uploading is fixed !
But trying to upload a new version of an image still returns an internal error, and a warning.

Warning: rename(/var/www/playdota/wiki/images/e/e4/BTNVenomWards.jpg,/var/www/playdota/wiki/images/archive/e/e4/20100420130827!BTNVenomWards.jpg) [function.rename]: Permission denied in /var/www/playdota/wiki/includes/filerepo/FSRepo.php on line 330

Could not rename file "public/e/e4/BTNVenomWards.jpg" to "public/archive/e/e4/20100420130827!BTNVenomWards.jpg".

I was trying to replace the current Venom Wards icon by Name: BTNVenomWards.jpg

It's down.
It seems that this is the direction we are heading here.

Lordshinjo · 09-23-2010, 12:25 AM

It's back up \o/

tallend · 10-20-2010, 10:15 AM

So ... ultimately, Playdota will be recreated in .... playdota

Many pages need to be written, for example, Nether Ward and Death Ward.

Captain Planet · 12-03-2010, 02:28 AM

Wiki is down again

Varuka · 04-07-2011, 10:27 PM
