==Monobook request==

[[mh:piklodex]]

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 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)

==Favicon==

Why doesn't Meta wiki have a favicon? Also skywiki.org doesn't automatically redirect to www.skywiki.org, or even just the base wiki here: meta.skywiki.org. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 16:12, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

==Where is private contact?==

Where can you privately contact Skywiki? What if someone posted somebody's credit card number and needs suppression? Email is disabled on many (possibily all) SkyWikis so can't contact local admins to suppress information. [[User:IllawarraFan|IllawarraFan]] ([[User talk:IllawarraFan|talk]]) 19:35, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

hi there stewards would suppress it if such said would happen --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 01:45, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

==Custom domains==

If I own a domain, does SkyWiki have nameservers that I can apply it to through via a Phabricator request as a custom domain for a wiki hosted here? [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 02:21, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

==Why did my wiki get deleted?==

Why did [http://intest.skywiki.org] get marked as deleted. I didn't delete it myself. [[User:IllawarraFan|IllawarraFan]] ([[User talk:IllawarraFan|talk]]) 06:53, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

: My wiki is mainly for interface testing. [[User:IllawarraFan|IllawarraFan]] ([[User talk:IllawarraFan|talk]]) 08:18, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Hello I have left you a message on you're wall regarding this matter, the reason for its Deletion is that the topic of the wiki doesn't follow our content policy and is similar to test wiki --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 20:45, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

==Phabricator requests==

The team of SkyWiki is probably aware of this, but I currently have two Phabricator requests, one of which is asking for the ability to allow for custom domains. [[User:Gstar|Gstar]] ([[User talk:Gstar|talk]]) 17:02, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

We don't offer custom domains at this time and you're request was already Fulfilled --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 17:18, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

== Bug in ManageWiki ==

[[File:Dmsjuygehjd.png|thumb]]

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. [[File:Imageукув.png|thumb|AYS, I cannot change skin.]][[User:Iu|Iu]], man who created [https://agash.skywiki.org/wiki Agash language] 🟨⬜🟨 14:29, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

I'm not sure what skin you are using but you may need to change it to a different skin. Some of the skins are buggy. , I'll past this onto our tech team --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 14:34, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

== Wiki requests/questions ==

hi, i've recently started a new wiki here: https://vousvoulezdelamusique.skywiki.org/wiki/Main_Page

i have a few things to ask about

i'd like to ask for a localsettings.php change if that's possible:

$wgExternalLinkTarget = '_blank';

for making external links open in a new tab

i've also tried adding the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reference_Tooltips mediawiki reference tooltips gadget] on my wiki but it never showed up in my settings after going through the steps. not sure if there's a permission thing that needs to be changed there for that

last thing is that this wiki is intended to only be edited by me right now. that could change but until it does i'd like to ask if it could be exempt from any inactivity deletion. of course i'll be working on it on and off but the intent is for the information on it to stay up indefinitely, and of course with myself being the sole editor it's not meant to be constantly active in terms of edits. let me know if this is a feasible request to follow though. thanks --[[User:CrystalForce|CrystalForce]] 06:13, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

:#You can do this yourself in <code>Special:ManageWiki/settings</code> on your wiki - just look up <code>$wgExternalLinkTarget</code>, and the option should be there.

:#Make sure you have the Gadgets extension enabled.

:#Your wiki has been marked as exempted.

: [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 02:53, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

:: To change your wiki's logo and favicon, navigate to '''Special:ManageWiki/settings''' and find '''$wgLogo''' under the '''Styling''' section. For the favicon or Apple mobile device icon, locate '''$wgFavicon''' or '''$wgAppleTouchIcon''', depending on your needs. Enter the required URL in the corresponding textbox. The URL format is always:

:: <code>https://yourwiki.skywiki.org/images/database_name/XX/XX/File_name.X</code>

:: where '''X''' represents varying characters based on the file.

:: For the '''Vector (2022)''' skin, also add the link to '''$wgIcon'''.

:: To obtain the correct URL:

::* Upload the logo if you haven’t already. Once uploaded, you’ll be redirected to the image.

::* Right-click the image and select '''Copy Image Location''', or drag it into a new tab.

::* Copy the page’s URL

== 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.

== Why do I see error 403 when I log in without VPN? ==

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? And in general, what is the reason for this? International sanctions (I live in the Belarus) or is the server acting up? [[User:Ramzan|Ramzan]] ([[User talk:Ramzan|talk]]) 11:37, 13 March 2025 (UTC)

:Hello CuteRobot22,

:Just a reminder to use four tildes <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> at the end of your comments to include your signature.

:To answer your question, SkyWiki primarily runs on [[mediawikiwiki:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]], a software maintained and developed by the Wikimedia Foundation. Volunteers at Miraheze created two MediaWiki-compatible extensions—CreateWiki and ManageWiki. Since SkyWiki relies on these extensions for hosting services, the name "Miraheze" appears in many places. However, I'll check with the tech team to see if it can be changed.

+[[File:Dmsjuygehjd.png|thumb]]
+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.

+== Wiki requests/questions ==
+hi, i've recently started a new wiki here: https://vousvoulezdelamusique.skywiki.org/wiki/Main_Page
+i have a few things to ask about
+i'd like to ask for a localsettings.php change if that's possible:
+$wgExternalLinkTarget = '_blank';
+for making external links open in a new tab
+i've also tried adding the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reference_Tooltips mediawiki reference tooltips gadget] on my wiki but it never showed up in my settings after going through the steps. not sure if there's a permission thing that needs to be changed there for that
+last thing is that this wiki is intended to only be edited by me right now. that could change but until it does i'd like to ask if it could be exempt from any inactivity deletion. of course i'll be working on it on and off but the intent is for the information on it to stay up indefinitely, and of course with myself being the sole editor it's not meant to be constantly active in terms of edits. let me know if this is a feasible request to follow though. thanks --[[User:CrystalForce|CrystalForce]] 06:13, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
+:#You can do this yourself in <code>Special:ManageWiki/settings</code> on your wiki - just look up <code>$wgExternalLinkTarget</code>, and the option should be there.
