Forum:"Games" template update

As you may or may not have noticed, the script for Games has been updated. The goal was to have it work better with Oasis and to have it handle a lot of icons (like e.g. on the super mutant page) more elegantly.

This is what it's supposed to look like. Please let me know if you notice any issues or if you have any feedback. -- Porter21 (talk) 20:08, January 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * Now I don't see the template at all. MonoBook, Firefox 3.6.13 (AdBlock+ turned off on *.wikia.com). I've also tested the issue using IE7 and Opera 10.63 (logged off, with Oasis) and haven't seen the template as well. veryblackravenTalk 15:34, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm running the exact same version of Firefox (even with AdBlock turned on except on the main page), so I doubt it's a browser issue. Have you tried doing a hard refresh (CTRL-SHIFT-R) so all the CSS/JS files get refreshed on your end? -- Porter21 (talk) 15:47, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Just tried it and it didn't help. :( Here is a picture. veryblackravenTalk 16:02, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Please try another refresh now - I've made some changes, hopefully it works. That's what I get for making "little" changes after the final testing ;) -- Porter21 (talk) 16:19, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well now I am getting all the icons placed right on top of the title bar of the infobox on all browsers, example. Strange thing is that as soon as I log in, its works fine and stays like that even after logging out and doing a hard refresh. It is not until I shut down the browser and use ccleaner, then it returns again as posted above. ☣Avatar☣ 17:52, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's likely a server cache issue. Registered users often receive a newer version of pages (the CSS and JS pages included); the server cache does not get updated as often for logged out users. It's something to keep an eye on, but it should go away after a while. -- Porter21 (talk) 18:09, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yep, just figured that. If I let the page stand for 5 minutes and then do a simple refresh, it worked fine again. ☣Avatar☣ 18:12, January 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Now all seems to work properly. I see small logos on the top right of the page. Logos became larger when I move a mouse over them. Thanks a lot! :) veryblackravenTalk 18:29, January 23, 2011 (UTC)

Currently tweaking template & script for optimal performance, so if you run into any oddities, please purge the page and do a hard refresh before reporting them. I've managed to reduce script runtime (i.e. the time it takes the browser to execute the script) to less than 6% of yesterday's value (and to ~25% of the "old" non-hover script's value), so I think the benefits are worth the trouble. -- Porter21 (talk) 20:47, January 24, 2011 (UTC)


 * Great job on this! It looks amazing; really professional. ~ Gardimuer { ʈalk } 16:41, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

Update (May 13)
I've updated the hover version of Games to compensate for the removal of the vanity bar where it was previously located. If you're running into any trouble, please do a hard refresh and purge the page in question first, but if the problem persists, please let me know. -- Porter21 (talk) 06:58, May 14, 2011 (UTC)
