TheFifteenthMember Yes. You're creepy. I can't say we'll miss you while you're gone, so it'd be best if you did go. We all win that way. — TheFifteenthMember 00:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC) To those of you who don't know already, the Wiki has been updated to support mobile viewing! Please report any issues or problems you are having with the new viewing mode so that they can be looked into!

• There is no easily accessible Table of Contents. TheFifteenthMember 01:24, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
  • In the Roundtable, we agreed that we wanted to see a Table of Contents similar to wikipedia's.
• Add notifications for users who receive new messages.
• Navigation bars are missing. Those are important on pages such as Gear.
• Some articles with tables that don't work well; either the width is too wide or colours are missing. Is there a way to improve them?
  • Command Matrix
  • Highwind (Raft)
  • Game:Traverse Town#Treasures
• Add a "collapse section" feature at the end of each section. This is so that people do not need to scroll back up long sections to reach the table of contents and search bar.
• At the moment, suites are plain text. Is there any way of making them look better (e.g. adding a box around them)?
• Hover text does not function. TheFifteenthMember 15:51, 31 August 2014 (UTC)

• Talk bubbles are completely broken. TheFifteenthMember 00:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
• Mobile's main page is much less effective due to its incredible length. Is there any possibility of creating an alternate main page to be displayed on mobiles? TheFifteenthMember 00:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
• Some tables can't be viewed in its entirety, requiring tedious scrolling left-and-right in order to read them. Is this a non-solvable problem, dependant on the mobile's screen width? TheFifteenthMember 00:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
• Recent Changes is not on the mobile sidebar. TheFifteenthMember 12:40, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
• KHWiki:Traverse Town pages are broken. TheFifteenthMember 12:41, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

OK, talk bubbles and infoboxes are better now. If there are other table issues, please provide examples. A separate mobile main page is possible. The way elements are selected to appear on the mobile main page is with a div of id="mf-???" where ??? can be anything (also, adding a div title parameter creates a heading). What I've done is select elements from the existing main page to appear on mobile. To create a separate mobile main page from scratch, all you you have to do is use a single <div id="mf-main" style="display:none;">...</div> containing the mobile main page at the bottom of the main page, and it will be hidden from view. Then make it show up only for mobile users using MediaWiki:Mobile.css. --Porplemontage (talk) 02:17, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

Thank you. TheFifteenthMember 00:52, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

I added Recent Changes to the sidebar. Traverse Town is just too wide? --Porplemontage (talk) 22:00, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

On a phone the sections should be collapsed by default and the collapsed section titles serve as the Table of Contents. On a tablet or desktop in mobile mode the sections are expanded by default and a Table of Contents should show up. --Porplemontage (talk) 17:25, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Yes, Traverse Town is too wide. As I've posted above, we would like a Table of Contents similar to Wikipedia's setup. TheFifteenthMember 15:54, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
