wikia -> fandom
« on: 22 / February / 2019, 12:05:36 »

I guess we're a fandom now: https://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK now redirects to https://chdk.fandom.com/wiki/CHDK

Background:
https://community.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Fandom_domain_migration

It seems possible we could request to be on wikia.org but I don't really see need.

I expect the wikia->fandom redirects will be in place for a long time, but we should probably update links when we notice them.
Don't forget what the H stands for.

I guess we should not complain about something free, but the ads on the new site are large, intrusive, and annoying.  Much more so that before.

I'm having problems with the Internet Explorer 11 on this page. Unfortunately, I can not update the IE11.
The problem is that I just do not get to the confirmation button. Has anyone else the problem?

If you have any way to block scripts on fandom.com, that might help.

I do not have much options for setting up my company PC.
I just want press the 'accept' button. Unfortunately, the button is outside the Explorer and there is no scroll option available.

Does IE give you any options to ignore page formatting?

Hm, I don't get that prompt at all from a US IP.

There is a support section for the platform https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Forum

My experience is that web developers these days don't put much effort into IE support.

I did not find this option...
But I found a solution. With Ctrl - as long as the resolution decrease, until the button comes. Then I have to confirm once and that's it.

Interesting. I get this message on all devices...
My experience is that web developers these days don't put much effort into IE support.
On Google Chrome for example, I had the possibility to scroll to the button.
Thanks for the support…

If you're bit familiar with HTML and CSS you could probably find the button using developer tools (F12) and make it visible by overriding CSS (set position absolute and move it to the top left, or add overflow:scroll to containers).

Do you get the same problem on other "fandom" wikis, like https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page ?

I know only basics about HTML…
Ctrl – is the fastest way..

Yes, same problem…. but only the first time
If I go first to https://chdk.fandom.com/wiki/CHDK and confirm it there, then I have not confirm at https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page .

If I delete all IE11 Settings/history and go first to https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page and confirm it there, then I have not confirm at https://chdk.fandom.com/wiki/CHDK.
