|---|---|---|
| dns53 | does this team manage mailing lists? | 13:55 |
| === mpt_ is now known as mpt | ||
| SiDi | dns53, all lists, do you mean ? | 14:13 |
| dns53 | the loco list | 14:25 |
| SiDi | I suppose it's newz2000 who manages the whole lists.ubuntu.com but i dont think he controls what happens in the lists themselves. | 14:27 |

| SiDi | wow | 18:53 |
| SiDi | their engine isnt clever | 18:53 |
| SiDi | uses my geographical location to sort the answers | 18:53 |
| SiDi | instead of my locale | 18:53 |
| knome | i learned that ubuntu is the magazine of finland-south africa club | 18:54 |
| newz2000 | wow, I like the mouse-over taht shows a summary of the contents of the target page | 19:01 |
| mpt | Bing is quite sure that I'm in Australia -- I don't know how it got that idea | 19:01 |
| knome | newz2000, i don't see that | 19:04 |
| newz2000 | knome: when you mouse over the results a line and dot show up on the right... if you mouse over it you see a summary of the page | 19:04 |
| knome | no, i don't see a dot | 19:05 |
| knome | oh right, now i do | 19:06 |
| newz2000 | :-) | 19:06 |
| newz2000 | subtle | 19:06 |
| knome | the page looks totally different on epiphany and firefox | 19:07 |
| knome | on epiphany, i have way more content | 19:07 |
| knome | i wonder if it's because the locale is en only | 19:07 |
| SiDi | heya newz2000 | 19:10 |
| newz2000 | hey SiDi | 19:10 |
| SiDi | mpt, i got an IP that isnt linked to my country too when i'm in france :] Stupid people make stupid search engines :] | 19:10 |
| SiDi | newz2000, i wanted to ask you something about the wiki themes | 19:11 |
| SiDi | is it possible to have one for xubuntu ? :D | 19:11 |
| newz2000 | SiDi: I'd rather not | 19:11 |
| newz2000 | as a matter of fact there has been recent talk to remove kubuntu's theme | 19:11 |
| newz2000 | don't think it will happen, but the prob is | 19:11 |
| mpt | knome, weird, I have the opposite issue -- it's far more interesting in Firefox | 19:11 |
| newz2000 | that google shows some results illogically as being part of the kubuntu wiki and others as being part of ubuntu wiki | 19:12 |
| SiDi | newz2000, aw | 19:12 |
| SiDi | newz2000, the only point of that would be to change brown to blue though | 19:13 |
| SiDi | we use a custom menu for xubuntu pages, its blueish, and that's just not sexy :D | 19:13 |
| newz2000 | well, there's also the need for a separate domain | 19:13 |
| newz2000 | SiDi: if adding some styles to the ubuntu theme could make your pages more attractive I'd support that | 19:13 |
| newz2000 | non-intrusive styles that only affect certain pages for example | 19:14 |
| SiDi | is it possible to change the aspect of the page with code inside our wiki pages ? | 19:15 |
| mpt | SiDi, https://lists.canonical.com/archives/ubuntu-website/2009-March/000620.html | 19:15 |
| SiDi | the best for us would be to have a page like https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Toolbox/Menu that changes the rest too | 19:15 |
| newz2000 | SiDi: can you add a class attribute to your menu? If so then we could add necessary styles to the main style sheet | 19:16 |
| SiDi | our "wiki" consists of the childs of wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu btw :p | 19:17 |
| mpt | newz2000, would you do that server-side, or only for browsers that support the :has-child() selector? :-) | 19:18 |
| SiDi | knome, ping | 19:18 |
| newz2000 | neither, I'm thinking of styling only specific elements of the page that have pre-defined classes on them | 19:19 |
| newz2000 | like the menu | 19:19 |
| SiDi | newz2000, isnt there a way to specify a different CSS for a part of the wiki ? | 19:21 |
| newz2000 | SiDi: I don't know for sure but if you want to propose a solution I'll consider it. We're using moin 1.6 series. | 19:22 |
| knome | SiDi, pong | 19:30 |
| SiDi | knome, newz2000 asked if we could add a class to our menu :P | 19:37 |
| SiDi | http://moinmo.in/FeatureRequests/ThemeCssPerPage | 19:43 |
| SiDi | is it normal i dont understand anything ? | 19:45 |
| newz2000 | those are theoretical solutions as far as I can tell... I'm not too comfortable with it since some browsers (ahem) let you embed scripts in stylesheets | 19:46 |
| newz2000 | I'm adamantly opposed to any feature that lets people use our wiki tool to hack into the computers who happen to visit our site with IE. | 19:48 |
| newz2000 | ...wiki as a tool... | 19:48 |
| newz2000 | :-D | 19:48 |
| SiDi | newz2000, heheh :D | 19:48 |
| SiDi | newz2000, think about how we'd protect our precious knowledge from the microsoft marketing department | 19:49 |
| newz2000 | Though that would be a clever trick if we could automatically install Ubuntu on the computers of anyone using IE | 19:49 |
| SiDi | yeh | 19:50 |
| SiDi | with wubi | 19:50 |
| SiDi | hm... i shall write the first ubuntu-installing virus :] | 19:50 |
| SiDi | i must find their wiki | 19:53 |
| SiDi | their irc * | 19:53 |
| SiDi | this stuff is too confusing | 19:53 |
| SiDi | newz2000, http://paste.ubuntu.com/185944/ | 20:09 |
| SiDi | Do you understand what he means ? :D | 20:09 |
| SiDi | http://paste.pocoo.org/show/120415/ <- he told me we could execute arbitrary code depending on what's in the "request" param | 20:16 |
| newz2000 | SiDi: yes, I know what he means | 20:25 |
| SiDi | That's dirty, right ? :P | 20:26 |
| newz2000 | well, it can be done elegantly, but it would require major revision to the theme | 20:26 |
| newz2000 | think simpler, I'll bet you can come up with something that will work nicely | 20:26 |
| SiDi | i dont even know if we can put CSS inside the wiki pages :x | 20:31 |
| newz2000 | you can definitely use style rules | 20:31 |
| newz2000 | I thin css classes work also | 20:32 |
| newz2000 | think | 20:32 |
| SiDi | Do you know the syntax for the style rules inside a wiki page ? | 20:32 |
| newz2000 | I've seen it used on tables... | 20:33 |
| newz2000 | SiDi: see the first few lines of this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork?action=raw | 20:34 |
| SiDi | Per line isnt affordable unfortunately ^^ | 20:37 |
| SiDi | What i actually want is that all the pages below Xubuntu/ automatically get a style applied, and the worse thing to do when creating a page would be copy pasting a block of wikitext or including it as we currently include our menu | 20:38 |
| newz2000 | I'd suggest against trying to make a drastic change to the site this way, I'm referring to making your menu look good with the stock ubuntu theme | 20:40 |
| SiDi | well, at worse that's ok, we'll survive ^^ | 20:41 |
| SiDi | its just about marketing :P | 20:41 |
