Hello, I am the admin for the Selena Wikipedia however, there's a lot of issues that still have not been resolved. (1) if you look here you can see at the "Notes" section that the URL is exposed while the given name for the URL is also exposed with the URL. How can I remove the URL from being exposed while leaving the name intact with the URL? Example: Ref#4 has "Jose Behar, interview" with a link. However, right below it shows the webpage exposed. (2) How can I disable "Comments" from Selena Wiki? (3) Is there anyway the "Discussion" tab can be brought back to the wiki? If not, can I create a proposal for this as it seems momentous to help create a thriving community wiki for discussions on improvement on a specific article? (4) How can I create a {{Selena}} to look like like this?. Also I am not an expert on coding so can you please simplify the way you respond, if that's not too much to ask :). I am also very sorry if this is too much to ask :/ just need these fix before promotion of Selena Wiki is a go. Thanks, [[User:AJona1992|<font color=red>Us</font>]][[Special:Contributions/AJona1992|<font color=green>'''''e'''''</font>]][[User:AJona1992|<font color=blue>r<font color=#66FF00>AJona1992</font>]] [[User talk:AJona1992|<font color=maroon>^{Love U Selena} 18:24, September 13, 2011 (UTC) (btw sorry for my username I still don't know how to perform codes)

So:

1. That's a Special:Contact issue,
2. Special:WikiaLabs,
3. Disabling comments should return it,
4. Go to this page, follow the instructions, then upload the resulting XML to your wiki with Special:Import on your wiki.
5. +1 Please tick the box Custom signature (Check this box to create a custom signature in the field above. The signature uses the same wiki markup that a regular page does, including links.) in your preferences.

Cheers! TK999 18:57, September 13, 2011 (UTC)

• Comments (1) I contacted them, (2) that page does not show me how to disable them, (4) I don't see any instructions except codes; am I supposed to copy and paste it somewhere? (5) it reads "Invalid raw signature. Check HTML tags." Thanks for replying.

1. They will email you in a few days,

2. Are you an admin?

4. First, type "Category:Selena" into the "Add pages from category" box. Then, remove everything from the list that appears, save for Template:Selena. Finally, click "Export" and save the XML and eventually follow the import process. TK999 19:14, September 13, 2011 (UTC)

5. Your sig seems to be too long (200+ characters). TK999 19:14, September 13, 2011 (UTC)

Yes I am an admin. I disabled the Comments from my wiki however the others are still a concern. [[User:AJona1992|<font color=blue>AJona1992</font>]][[Special:Contributions/AJona1992|yo!]] [[User talk:AJona1992|<font color=maroon>^{<3 Selena}]] 06:26, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

The contact request will be answered by Wikia Staff in a few days. And secondly, try to execute the export–import by opening the Wikipedia page in a new tab and continually checking back on my instructions so that you don1t make a mistake. And finally, you should close the last "font" tag in your sig. TK999 13:54, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

Can you tell me this on a step-by-step? I'm still having troubles understanding. Thanks, [[User:AJona1992|<font color=blue>AJona1992</font>]][[Special:Contributions/AJona1992|yo!]] [[User talk:AJona1992|<font color=maroon>^{<3 Selena}]] 15:15, September 14, 2011 (UTC)

Can anyone help? [[User:AJona1992|<font color=blue>AJona1992</font>]][[Special:Contributions/AJona1992|yo!]] [[User talk:AJona1992|<font color=maroon>^{<3 Selena}]] 15:19, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

Here is the page on Wikipedia that will instruct you on the way to export. Special:Import on your wiki is where you take the resulting XML file to be uploaded. --daNASCAT (help forum | blog) 21:28, September 16, 2011 (UTC)

Regarding the signature problem, your preferences might require you to put quotation marks around the attribute values before it allows you to tick the custom signature box. e.g. color="red" instead of color=red. -- Deltaneos (talk) 21:48, September 16, 2011 (UTC)

Did not work

I performed the import and this does not look anything like this. Did I do something wrong? [[User:AJona1992|<font color=blue>AJona1992</font>]][[Special:Contributions/AJona1992|yo!]] [[User talk:AJona1992|<font color=maroon>^{<3 Selena}]] 22:27, September 16, 2011 (UTC)

The Navbox template on your Wiki is not the same as the Navbox on Wikipedia's. Wikipedia's template is much more complex, and I'm not suited for handling such type of coding. --DQ13 ~ Let's get dangerous! 20:01, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

Well thanks for replying. Do you know how to make a collapse template similar to Wikipedia? I've some on A.N.T. Farm Wiki. Thanks, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4Ever} 20:20, September 19, 2011 (UTC)

Update

There's still a reference problem on the wiki. Also is there a collapsible template that is equivalent from Wikipedia that I can use? Thanks, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4Ever} 22:49, September 22, 2011 (UTC)

On the page of Dulce Amor i could easily change links to fit under a line of text by removing space between the line of text and the hyperlink. With ul class="wikia-menu-button" tag you will get drop down menu options. Use li tag to add more lines to the drop down menu, see source of my sig for more info

WikiPim

What? Jonayo! ^{Selena 4Ever} 20:05, September 23, 2011 (UTC)

Update 2

I now need help STILL with the way the references are shown. I also need help with collapsible template. Thanks, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4Ever} 23:22, September 29, 2011 (UTC)
