30 November 2018

  • extensions/UespCustomCode/SiteCustomCode.php and SiteCustomCode_body.php: Added argument support to {{CORENAME}}, {{LABELNAME}}, and {{SORTABLECORENAME}}. – Robin Hood  (talk) 06:48, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
    • Fixed a problem in onGetDefaultSortkey() that was breaking category pages and partially breaking image uploads. Some pages may need hard-refreshes or purges as a result of the back-and-forth. – Robin Hood  (talk) 22:19, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

27 November 2018

  • Fixed https support on blog.uesp.net (made primary site the HTTPS version). -- Daveh (talk) 18:33, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Removed SSLv2 and SSLv3 support from content1/2/3 and files1. -- Daveh (talk) 18:33, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

24 November 2018

  • includes/MediaWiki.php (content3 only): Implemented most of these changes to eliminate some HTTP 301 errors with cron jobs in debug log file and perhaps also help with stuck jobs. – Robin Hood  (talk) 05:53, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

23 November 2018

  • includes/jobqueue/JobQueueDB.php (content3 only): Implemented this change to see if number of jobs getting stuck in job queue will be reduced. – Robin Hood  (talk) 22:05, 23 November 2018‎ (UTC)

10 November 2018

  • extensions/UespCustomCode/SiteCustomCode.php and SiteCustomCode_body.php: Commented out old implementation of DEFAULTSORT override and updated it to MW 1.19+ version. This restores {{SORTABLECORENAME}} as the default sortkey, as it was prior to the update to MW 1.19 back in January 2013. Also running updateCollations.php as recommended here. – Robin Hood  (talk) 05:26, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

2 November 2018

  • Removed check from config/Permissions.php that prevented non-bots from accessing the API edits. This permits the mobile skin to perform edits. -- Daveh (talk) 17:44, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

26 October 2018

17 October 2018

  • Added the https://app.uesp.net domain which serves a modified MobileFrontEnd display for use with the UESP app. Currently this is being soley served by content3 but will eventually be moved to squid1/content1/content2. -- Daveh (talk) 17:08, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
  • Fixed the prefix search on the mobile skin (namespaces needed to be manually specified). -- Daveh (talk) 17:08, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

16 October 2018

15 October 2018

  • Changed all explicit CSS and JS head entries into resource loader modules. -- Daveh (talk) 19:39, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
  • Explicitly made the server use "https" to fix an issue with Squid not caching the https verison of pages (due to default of http when ``$wgServer`` is not using a prefix). -- Daveh (talk) 20:46, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

14 October 2018

  • config/CommonSettings.php: Set default thumbnail size to 200px ($wgDefaultUserOptions['thumbsize'] = 3; // thumb size 200). – Robin Hood  (talk) 22:44, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

11 October 2018

  • Cleared all pages in the cache that had a TCP_NEGATIVE_HIT/500 in the logs (15k different pages, probably much less 'real' pages with the issue currently). -- Daveh (talk) 23:41, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
  • Set negative_ttl to 0 on squid1 9was previously 1 second). -- Daveh (talk) 23:41, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
  • Added check for a null $title on line 151 of MetaTemplate.php which was causing 500 errors when loading articles that have invalid titles. Note that this may have been the/a root cause of the random error page issue happening lately. -- Daveh (talk) 23:57, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

8 October 2018

  • extensions/MetaTemplate/MetaTemplate_body.php: Added $frame->setVolatile(); to efMetaTemplateImplementLoad() and efMetaTemplateImplementTemplateName() on content3 only. Holding off on making same changes to live servers, as it seems they may no longer be needed. (Explanation: Templates like {{FMI}} or {{Book Footer}}, which often have no parameters in the template call, are supposed to be cached and thus return the same result throughout an entire page, even though they shouldn't. When I started testing, I discovered that this template caching no longer seems to be happening on any server, apparently eliminating the need to use setVolatile(). It's unclear why this is no longer happening, though.) – Robin Hood  (talk) 01:14, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

2 October 2018

  • extensions/UespCustomCode/SiteSpecialSearch.php: Tweaked layout per Dillon's suggestions. Removed all references to redirects, which were removed back in 1.23. – Robin Hood  (talk) 22:36, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

1 October 2018

  • extensions/UespCustomCode/SiteSpecialSearch.php: Added Blades namespace to search. – Robin Hood  (talk) 04:10, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

30 September 2018

  • Re-did changes from 15 and 17 September 2018. – Robin Hood  (talk) 03:58, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

28 September 2018

  • extensions/UespCustomCode/SiteCustomCode.php: Commented out $aSpecialPages[' Special Page '] lines for both Search and Preferences. – Robin Hood  (talk) 21:49, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

17 September 2018

  • extensions/UespCustomCode/files/search-icon.png: Replaced with version from Dillonn241 which has better edge smoothing with the transparency. – Robin Hood  (talk) 16:09, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

15 September 2018

  • config/CommonSettings.php: Set $wgLogo = "//images.uesp.net/4/40/NewUESPLogo1.png"; so transparency works. This was done previously after this discussion, but was converted back to a jpg at some point, perhaps inadvertently, as I can't find any further discussion about it. – Robin Hood  (talk) 00:34, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

4 August 2018

  • config/CommonSettings.php: Set $wgMaxImageArea = 6e7;, paralleling Wikia to allow larger images to be handled correctly. – Robin Hood  (talk) 18:57, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

30 July 2018

  • config/Extensions.php: Set $wgEnableTranscode = false and deleted related job queue entries, since it was clogging up the job queue with jobs that couldn't run. (Needs FFMPEG, I believe.) – Robin Hood  (talk) 06:39, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

29 July 2018

  • config/CommonSettings.php: Update ImageMagick conversion for SVG files to support transparency per this change. (Note: the added $wgSVGConverters['ImageMagick'] = ... line can be removed whenever we upgrade to a version that has the fix built-in.) – Robin Hood  (talk) 05:04, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

20 June 2018

  • Updated interwiki table so "en" actually points to "en" instead of "www". ;)
  • Also set iw_local for all three interwikis, so typing "pt:Skyrim:Skyrim" in the sidebar now brings you to PT. – Robin Hood  (talk) 07:17, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

18 June 2018

  • Reduced query cache size on db1/db2 to 500MB to test potential fix to random database lockups (may be due to query cache purging with large caches). See here and here. -- Daveh (talk) 13:01, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

11 June 2018

  • Gave bots editprotected permission so HnB can add full protection to pages. – Robin Hood  (talk) 22:20, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Added Blades/BL namespace. – Robin Hood  (talk) 06:04, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

4 June 2018

  • extensions/MobileFrontend/less/common/common.less, hacks.less: Commented out several lines that were causing formatting issues on Mobile (tagged each with RH70). – Robin Hood  (talk) 23:47, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

25 May 2018

  • UespCustomCode/SiteSpecialSearch.php: Backed out search term substitution of "eso" with "(eso OR Online)" from 10 April 2014 by removing entire custom showResults() function. It was now more of a nuisance than a benefit. – Robin Hood  (talk) 04:01, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

18 May 2018

  • extensions/MobileFrontend/less/modules/toggle.less: Commented out position:relative; which was causing sections to disappear entirely on mobile. – Robin Hood  (talk) 19:02, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

12 Apr 2018

25 Mar 2018

  • Changed wikis to use db1 as primary read database to prevent slave replication lag on db2 from causing issues. Will keep it like this will I diagnose and test the solution to reduce the replication lag. -- Daveh (talk) 01:36, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

12 Mar 2018

  • Updated all SSL certificates to a new multi-domain wildcard. This, in theory, should fix the issue with the *.m.uesp.net domains had with the prior SSL setup. -- Daveh (talk) 23:45, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

6 Mar 2018

  • Restarted Memcached on content1. -- Daveh (talk) 13:19, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

3 Mar 2018

  • Permissions.php: Reinstate confirmed group changes from 13 July 2017. – Robin Hood  (talk) 01:48, 3 March 2018 (UTC)

16 Feb 2018

  • Temporarily set $wgMasterWaitTimeout = 6000; and changed the main read database to db1 on content1/2/3 due to high slave lag on db2 caused by a full disk. -- Daveh (talk) 16:05, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

26 Jan 2018

  • Fixed the mobile sites pt.m, it.m, and www.m to point to content2 instead of squid1 to fix serving of https pages. Squid doesn't handle multiple https certificates. -- Daveh (talk) 22:38, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

25 Jan 2018

  • Fixed directory permissions of a few thumbnail folders on files1. They should have the apache:uespadmin ownership. -- Daveh (talk) 15:26, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
  • Note on nobody:nobody file permission issue for NFS shares. Make sure the client hostname is first on the 127.0.0.1 line in /etc/hosts.conf.
  • Fix hosts.conf
  • nfsidmap -c
  • service rpcidmapd restart
  • umount /mnt/uesp/wikiimages
  • mount /mnt/uesp/wikiimages
-- Daveh (talk) 15:26, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
