Case Sensitive Search
When I'm looking for a page, I'll make sure to spell it right, but I won't bother with the case of the words... therefore it always fails to find the right article. I suspect this is usually the case, so I suggest search needs to not be case sensitive, to make it more fruitful for users. --Questy 18:05, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
- Taking you to the page without search display is case sensitive, but the search itself is not. If the case does not match but the spelling does you will get a page with 2 sections: Article title matches, and Page text matches. The first hit under Article title matches SHOULD be the one you are looking for.
- try this... go to My preferences and on the Search tab, check Show suggests in search box. I think you may like that better. :) --Florence Sopher of Lucan D'Lere (talk / contribs / my templates) 19:11, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Collection Quests Timeline Link on Main Page
I looked for this but couldn't find it, would it be OK to put this on the main page? I'm new to wiki editing so if you respond to this I might forget it's here and not look at it. I got a 'message' from someone once so do that if you need to talk to me about this... But, if possible, just put it on the main page! thanks! --Eemo Zomg'KittensMewMew of Venekor 21:02, 15 May 2007 (CEST)
- For history's sake, this was completed some time ago.--Kodia 04:30, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
Watch list and contribution links
There used to be links at the top of the page for our personal contributions and watch lists. Unless I am missing something, these are no longer easily accessible. From using the IE find command, I think they may actually be there but not visible. --SwordMage 02:43, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- see "Welcome, <YOURNAME>! <YOURNAME> SQUAREIMAGEWITHDOWNARROW - [Log out]"?
- click the image. --Uberfuzzy 02:54, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- Talk about subtle. I assumed the icon was for messaging since it is similar to other message system icons in other apps (and no tool tip).
- Oh, and thanks.--SwordMage 03:19, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- dont feel bad, i had to ask too, and i looked for over a week after the skin beta weeks ago. --Uberfuzzy 05:07, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Search Function
I really miss the ability to specifically search for a word or phrase that happens to be a page title. I was looking for "Tradeskill Delegate" as text in order to update it for the new crafting tutorial; however, I could only get to the Category:Tradeskill Delegate (NPC Type) page.
It seems a shame that we lost the "Search" button that forced a text search (what we have is only the old "Go" button). --SwordMage 06:53, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- yeah. that buggs me too, i've told the techs about it a couple times, but they keep groaning about waiting for this magical great search project to get finished. try Special:Search? also, what exactly were you looking for "Tradeskill Delegate" for? --Uberfuzzy 06:59, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
- Same problem with the special page!
- The Tradeskill Delegate is a pre-RoK NPC title and I wanted to see what might need to change. There are plenty of times when NPC types are referenced without a link.--SwordMage 08:09, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
FFXICLOPEDIA
Why does the title of this page say FFXICYCLOPEDIA?
