in Is there a maximum number of wiki pages allowed on a Free Trial? August 2019

Chainsaw might remember the technical details... he's the first person who looked at it and would believe me that it wasn't a "user is messing up CSS" issue (I wasn't touching the CSS) and instead something caused on the backend when I stressed it w…

in Changing Background Color For Single Wiki Page April 2016

and is there some other way of uploading images to the site besides the embed media button (on the wiki edit menu which isn't snapping into place because of the bug on my account that I first reported in July of 2015 that still hasn't been fixed)? …

thanks! that works when visiting it as https://nanopunk.obsidianportal.com/, but not as https://nanopunk.obsidianportal.com/wikis/home-page (though the latter may not matter as I won't be directing any traffic to that URL) and if I wanted to g…

@ Bort - I've heard of Brixo... taking a look at it for the MOC I'm building for BrickFair... a big-ass spacecraft carrier that'll need flood lights for the hangar bays and lighting panels in the hallways of the crewed section (especially the ones w…

in white space on wiki pages (when coding tables) April 2016

was able to fix the problem with the russia page by having empty lines between the pre-table elements, e.g.: {{ "_A gas station masquerading as a country_" ~ [[United States of America|US]] [[Senate (US)|Senator]] [[John McCain]] on [[Russia]] …

Embedded videos are showing up in my wiki - is this the result of a deliberate action / a permanent fix, or is it just another case of videos temporarily coming back for no known reason?

having way too many traps never sat well with me either, I tend to have a fair amount of traps which have either a) stopped working given the depredations of time, b) already gone off / had no reset (e.g. the hallway blocked by skeletons that have b…

okay, added oddity, just edited my notes on modern Russian history into table format, and produced a whole bunch of white space in front of the table, but no table-within-a-table factor this time: https://nanopunk.obsidianportal.com/wikis/russian-f…

@ The_CDM - I've made the second bug report (that the tags disappeared) private and asked them to close it - this is the active bug report that is also public: http://help.obsidianportal.com/discussions/problems/20297-social-media-buttons-togglin…
