Adding information after spending lots of time on this[]

I tried adding information for folks like me that do not right off the bat get this whole thing. Key items that should be noted are now in bold, and things that should have been noted for noobs added. Not everyone coming here is a programmer, therefore these things need to be noted. Asking Wikia helpers and the Chatroom should not be required to do this. That is what help pages are for.  Devilmanozzy (Talk Page)  11:49, October 30, 2015 (UTC)

Delete featured category[]

How do you delete a featured category? I made a few and decided against one but I can't figure out how to delete it. I tried deleting all of the categories within the category but that doesn't work. Help please! WarriorLoverInc (talk) 03:57, November 24, 2015 (UTC)

Hey! I can help with this, but it's kinda hard to explain with words. Essentially: click on the category name, and then on the next page, click on the category name again. You'll be taken to a page where you can change the category's "Main Image". Scroll down below that main image, and there's an option to "Delete Item". Does that make sense?

Yes it does! I got it deleted. Thank you for the explanation! WarriorLoverInc (talk) 01:34, November 25, 2015 (UTC)

Special:CuratedContent[]

There needs to be more explanation on the distinction between this tool and Special:CuratedContent (which I find more useful). -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 12 Feb 2016 10:47 AM Pacific

Can't save edits to the Mobile Main Page[]

Hello fellow wikians,

I am an admin at Kishin Douji Zenki Wikia. Due to some translation updates and us adding new content regarding the creators of the series, I wanted to update our Mobile Main Page to feature these changes, but every time I try to save my changes by clicking the Publish-button I get the following message:

Sorry, it looks like something went wrong. Please try again.

If I try again, I get the same message over and over again. When I leave and arrange things again and try to save them, I encounter the same issue again.

I don't know, if this is related to the latest browser update to Firefox Quantum or if it is a Wikia/FANDOM issue.

Has anyone else encountered this or does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

History[]

Is there a way to see the MMP's history, who edited when and what? -- CompleCCity -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 10:59, June 07, 2019 (UTC)

There isn't, unfortunately. You can only ever see the current MMP setup, and won't know who last worked on it. Mira Laime  (help forum | blog) 22:41, June 7, 2019 (UTC)
Unfortunately, indeed … thanks! And greetings to a – hopefully sunny – San Diego from good old Germany. (I like your profile.) :) -- compleCCity -- You talkin' to me? -- cCContributions -- 10:13, June 8, 2019 (UTC)

Need some more info on image cropping[]

From my experience the image cropping function is super unreliable and unpredictable. It leads to much frustration, so I often end up making custom images just for the mobile main page. However, if there was some info on how it works, it might not be so horrible. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 3 Jul 2019 6:24 PM Pacific

Where is the option to add images?[]

I do not seem to find a button to upload an image when filling in the description.

This tool has never been great. And now it is no more. R.I.P. MMP. Sapador Castelo 07:14, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
