| wildmanne39 | elfy is there away to say get post 44 of a thread to convert instead of post 1? I tried but have failed | 18:32 |
|---|---|---|
| elfy | not sure - let me have a dig | 18:33 |
| wildmanne39 | this is the thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10796508/postcount44 | 18:33 |
| wildmanne39 | ok | 18:33 |
| elfy | seems to do that - go to the thread - then click on the post number - you'll just get the post in a seperate window - use that URL - seems to work here | 18:36 |
| elfy | wildmanne - you got the most up to date version of the script - should be 0.4 | 18:39 |
| wildmanne39 | I believe let me look | 18:43 |
| wildmanne39 | yes I do, I get a page to open but it is not that page | 18:46 |
| elfy | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10796508&postcount=44 | 18:47 |
| elfy | try that | 18:47 |
| wildmanne39 | ok thanks I thought I had the wrong format at the end | 18:47 |
| wildmanne39 | yeah that did it thank you save me a lot of work | 18:49 |
| wildmanne39 | :) | 18:49 |
| elfy | woot - that's what teams are good for :) | 18:49 |
| wildmanne39 | yep we all need help sometimes | 18:49 |
| elfy | threads where there are more than one post needing to go in the wiki will need each to be converted and then added together I guess | 18:50 |
| wildmanne39 | yes that is my thought too | 18:50 |
| wildmanne39 | some arw a mess | 18:50 |
| wildmanne39 | are | 18:50 |
| elfy | another good reason for people to look at the results before letting it out | 18:50 |
| elfy | personally I think we should all have sandboxes | 18:51 |
| wildmanne39 | elfy you know in my sandbox no formating will work I have to create a new page just to work on it | 18:51 |
| elfy | oh - wonder why that is | 18:52 |
| elfy | there's the forum wikli team one and you can use mine if you need to | 18:52 |
| wildmanne39 | I do not know but I have tried several times and it is always the same | 18:52 |
| wildmanne39 | I have added some threads to the rejected list also | 18:53 |
| elfy | oh good one - I've not had time to look at that for a while | 18:53 |
| elfy | I've not had much time fullstop | 18:54 |
| wildmanne39 | I know what you mean I am doing as much as I can now I will be gone for about a week next month starting around the 7th | 18:55 |
| elfy | we can pretend to be a tag team then - I'll be back properly about then | 18:56 |
| elfy | :) | 18:56 |
| wildmanne39 | there you go that is | 18:56 |
| wildmanne39 | how teams work my cat hit the enter key while I was still typing | 18:57 |
| elfy | LOL | 18:57 |
| wildmanne39 | she has to be as close as she can get | 18:57 |
| elfy | :) | 18:57 |
| wildmanne39 | this is one is bobweavers he asked me to add some pictures but they are large I think that is going to be a problem | 18:58 |
| elfy | oh - you can set the size of the image | 19:01 |
| elfy | have a look at this one I did https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ForumWikiTeam/ImportTool | 19:02 |
| elfy | the last two images were big so I did [[attachment:gedit.png|{{attachment:gedit.png||width=750}}]] | 19:02 |
| elfy | took a while to get the size right - but you'll get the idea | 19:03 |
| wildmanne39 | ok I see that is a nice thing to know | 19:03 |
| elfy | I assume you've seen the various wiki formatting pages ? | 19:03 |
| wildmanne39 | tell me do you see a good way to integrate this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1799571&page=2 with the previous link I gave you? | 19:04 |
| wildmanne39 | yes I have some things I do not understand like color text | 19:04 |
| elfy | I not looked at that yet - but I'd look for a page that had some :) | 19:05 |
| elfy | the whole page? ^^ | 19:05 |
| wildmanne39 | I think so or maybe just the pictures but I think that would be confusing I would rather leave that page out | 19:07 |
| wildmanne39 | also the link to the driver is dead I need to find another one | 19:07 |
| elfy | oic - this is the stuff bobweaver thinks should be in the page | 19:07 |
| wildmanne39 | yes he asked me to add the pics from the second page but I am not sure how to combine it with the first with out doing a lot of rewriting | 19:08 |
| elfy | wildmanne39: I would be inclined to not - do the wiki with the original information - the wiki is community based - if the community want to enhance they can | 19:09 |
| elfy | si my stance | 19:09 |
| wildmanne39 | so just do the first page and let him edit as he wishes | 19:10 |
| elfy | otherwise we will get into a situation where post #5 of this thread, #72 of that one, #13 of the other would be best if they were all in the wiki page for post #1 of a completely different thread | 19:11 |
| wildmanne39 | I see and that is a problem for me | 19:11 |
| elfy | yes - I would say so - if it was a matter of adding a bit here and there then that is different | 19:11 |
| wildmanne39 | someone has already added the page but they had the first page and it makes no sense | 19:12 |
| elfy | I've not got any problem with anyone doing as they wish - but the 'team' position should be different perhaps :) | 19:12 |
| elfy | well there's nothing wrong with editing the exisiting wiki if it is wrong or making no sense | 19:13 |
| wildmanne39 | I think you are right it is a big project and we can not do it all | 19:13 |
| elfy | exactly | 19:13 |
| wildmanne39 | that is what I am going to do someone added the first page and left it that way but it is not the page that was intended to be added | 19:14 |
| elfy | you are right to want to change it all then :) | 19:14 |
| wildmanne39 | ok thanks I am going to get started | 19:15 |
| elfy | k | 19:15 |
