  • Updated

Significant issues related to the MediaWiki 1.43 update, fixes are in progress:

  • The editor cursor may be misaligned during editing - turning off syntax highlighting can help in the meantime.
  • On the mobile layout, infobox content may not use the full width available.
  • Option to pick default theme is missing from Special:Preferences.
  • Recently fixed:
    • On the mobile layout, Table of Contents links do not function as intended.
    • Admins/mods source editing on the mobile layout may unexpectedly lock comments on the edited page.
    • On the mobile layout, image icons may be displayed with unwanted line breaks.
    • IME text input on languages such as Chinese, Korean, Japanese may not work as expected.
    • The edit cursor may move unexpectedly move backwards.
    • Image thumbs may show incorrect white theming in limited situations.

 

Other significant known issues under investigation on Fandom wikis:

  • The VisualEditor might show a "Revision IDs returned by the server do not match" error.
    • Pressing CTRL+F5 or clearing your browser cache should fix this.
  • Setting the "Edit area font style" preference to a non-default value may cause the editor text to become misaligned.
    • We recommend setting it to the default choice ("Browser default").
  • Accounts with confirmed emails may see a message incorrectly stating the account email still needs to be confirmed.
    • This error should go away after a few days, as the real issue is the young age of the account.
    • We are working on updates to the error messages to reduce confusion!
  • Non-English wikis may show a generic Fandom favicon on Google search results.
    • This is due to Google ignoring language paths when looking for favicons. Unfortunately, this is outside our control.
    • We are serving the correct favicon, which you can see in your browser when viewing the wiki.
