SkyWiki lacks options for wiki skins. Can we at least have Monobook as both an optional skin and allow users to choose them as default for their wiki? I made [[mh:piklodex|PikloDex]] right now and noticed there's no Monobook skin option for the wiki. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 15:58, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

When I try to click on a tab in the wiki extension management section, for example, Skins, a blue underscore appears under the first tab (API), which prevents me from either clicking on “Search” or selecting another tab (including the API itself). What should I do? I can't configure anything because of this bug. I even tried to log out and log in, clear the cache, then cookies, lost ten accounts from other services because of the last one and did not solve this problem. I even logged in through another PC - the error doesn’t care.

== What is Skywiki? ==
 
I don't know if this is the most appropriate place to ask this, but I couldn't find any page that answered my question. As the question says, What is Skywiki? Why was it founded and what are its differences from other wiki farms like Miraheze? Greetings. --[[User:Mr. A|Mr. A]] ([[User talk:Mr. A|talk]]) 19:28, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
 
:Hi Mr. A, welcome to SkyWiki!
:SkyWiki is a completely '''free''' and '''ad-free''' wiki farm, created as an alternative to other wiki farms like Miraheze and Fandom, combining the best aspects of both. Unlike Fandom, SkyWiki does not have ads, and unlike Miraheze, you don’t need to request a wiki—you can create one instantly.
:Here are some quick links to help you get started:
:[[Special:CreateNewWiki|Create a Wiki]] – Set up your own wiki in seconds.
:[[Discord|Join our Discord]] – Connect with the community and get support.

Hello, I entered the site, after some time of use it disappears, error 403. I solved this problem by turning on VPN, it worked. But will it be with my wiki?

:To answer your question, SkyWiki primarily runs on [[mediawikiwiki:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]], a software maintained and developed by the Wikimedia Foundation.
