Template talk:Character infobox

Title list

It appears that there is a problem with the title list section of the infobox. I know this worked before, so I guess the wiki must have been updated or something and it is now broken. I've had a look, and from what I can tell the problem is that the list is being passed to the Title_list template with the {{pipe}} things in, but those are not being parsed first, so the Title_list template breaks.

I attempted to fix this on my test wiki, and couldn't. The only solution I can see at the moment is to make users put in the Title_list template themselves, so instead of

| titles = TyrianProtector = 24 {{pipe}} CanthanProtector = 3

they would do

| titles = {{Title list | TyrianProtector = 24 | CanthanProtector = 3 }}

Perhaps there is a solution which won't require anyone to change their character profiles though, I just couldn't find one. Garrett 02:17, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes. gw wiki is using 1.11.x version of mediawiki, but we are running 1.12. The template pipe expansion trick which was a 'bug' in mediawiki can't be used in 1.12 version anymore, and i've not really been bothered enough yet to find out what the correct solution is, esp. since the character template is quite complex as it is, and there might be other bugs in 1.12 that is preventing it to work correctly. -- Darth Vader ^{talk contribs} 12:10, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
