Welcome to the Help Portal's suggestions page !
- Portal's documentation (categories&templates) can be found here.
- Previous discutions can be found here Archive 1 (Portal creation discution)
How to add suggestions
If you want to leave a comment / start a discussion about the Help Portal, please operate as follows:
- Press the edit button on top of the page.
- Scroll down and start a new topic using: == Name of the topic ==
- Write your questions/suggestions and sign it with four tildes: ~~~~ (or the signature button
). These will automatically be converted into your username and a timestamp.
- Preview the page and save it if you're comfortable with it.
- If you want to answer to a persons posting you can scroll behind the posting, hit enter to start a new line and begin it with a colon (:). It will be displayed as an intended line then.
- If you want to answer to an answer, please write multiple colons in the beginning of the line.
New Contents
- Several pages must be converted into categories (and pages) :
- User:Lum_Pfohl/Troubleshooting
- a lots of interesting information, I will ask Lum if she's ok.
- asked Lum and she's happy to provide her content in order to support this project =) (Zai Lynch)

Translations
I think we can start preparing stuff for translations. Like moving the French and German translations of the FAQ and Glossary (since these are the ones we're able to understand). I'm just trying to fix Template:Help/de in a way that it becomes usable for the new Project:Languages criteria. Will ask Asuka again and then rewrite the article. See Project:I18n/native feature migration. We don't really need the native feature to do that yet. See Project talk:I18n/native feature migration#Bridging the gap until implementation. The feature is already implemented in Template:Multi-lang (I was just to blind to recognize). The Template:Help/de works as intended in the sandbox but refuses to work in here (since it's an older mediawiki version...). I'll need to spend more time on thinking how to fix it... So all articles should have names in the articles language to be usable for people. Same for categories. NAME/fr and NAME/de would just be used for redirects or in case of colliding names (like anywhere in the LSL Portal. So LSL stays as is.) I need some sleep now... ^_^

Teen Section
I was wondering if Teen Second Life could have a section on the Help Portal with TSL links etc?. For example TSL Volunteers Portal, TSL FAQ and along with my TSL wiki page.

- It seems a good idea! ^^
- This FAQ is already available in the misc section but maybe a dedicated section in "1st step" or "advanced help" would be better if you have more links ^^. Don't forget to add the Help template in your pages. Gally Young 05:09, 31 August 2008 (PDT)
BlipTV vs. videoflash
I think we are going to have problems with vidtut. Vidtut are now hosted by http://blip.tv and <videoflash type="blip">http://lindenlab.blip.tv/file/1105701/</videoflash> and <videoflash type="flv">http://blip.tv/file/get/Lindenlab-VoiceChatCustomizeSpeechGestures274.flv</videoflash> are not running in this wiki, but maybe I'm doing something wrong... Who could help us on this point ? Gally Young 10:33, 11 August 2008 (PDT)
- Hm... i looked in the documentation and blip.tv doesn't seem to be supported by default. It might be possible to just add the line
- <php>$url['blip'] = 'http://lindenlab.blip.tv/file/' . $id;</php>
- to the extension code. But it's just a guess out of consistency to the others, since I got no idea about PHP. It should then work with
- <videoflash type="blip">1105701</videoflash>
- (might need to add info about width and height to not destroy the watermelon TV). I think we'll try to do the following:
- Test this in Kuraiko's Sandbox
- File a Jira and attach the updated code as a fix
- Ask Torley and/or Rob to have a look at it.
- Let's cross fingers :-)
