Is there a problem with the CreateWiki extension? I noticed the long backlog at [[Proposals for new wikis]] and Southparkfan's [//meta.orain.org/w/index.php?title=Stewards%27_noticeboard&diff=16122&oldid=16116 comment a few days ago], but is this still a problem? Just wondering. [[User:Wynter|Wynter]] ([[User talk:Wynter|talk]]) 23:46, 24 June 2015 (BST)
:{{ping|Wynter}} This is indeed still a problem. The cloudflare API usage in the extension is currently not working (So CNAME records must be created by a limited number of users with CF access, currently excluding myself.) I'm [https://github.com/Orain/CreateWiki/pull/20 attempting to fix] the problem right now :) I don't have push-access to the repo containing the extension though. -- Cheers, [[User:NDKilla|NDKilla]] <sup> ( [[User talk:NDKilla|Talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/NDKilla|Contribs]] ) </sup> 00:13, 25 June 2015 (BST)
== Thumbnail problems ==
It appears that images 3600x3600 or larger will not create thumbnails for the images, seen this a few places and not exactly sure what the issue is. Might be the built in limit on thumbnails, or an actual limitation that might have to be worked around.
===Discussion from right.orain.org===
I requested on the meta, Steward's requests, to fix this. [[User:Fiala1|Fiala1]] ([[User talk:Fiala1|talk]]) 19:51, 24 June 2015 (BST)
:[[mw:Manual:$wgImageLimits|$wgImageLimits]] This page is related to the thumbnail issue, as it's larger than the largest default thumbnail size. I believe you can just create a feature request to have this changed, but depending on the sizes of the file it may still be limited.

::The page says the largest size is 1280x1024 for thumbnails. I've seen larger images than this work and be thumbnails so I am not sure the maximum size. The main Wikimedia/Wikipedia of course allows infinite size images to work. This sounds like a limit in the software that generates the thumbnail rather than mediawiki itself. A lot of times Wikimedia software uses a command line program called ImageMagick to generate the thumbnails. I tested it and 3600x3400 is around the maximum size it will work. I checked some other large images uploaded here and they were about 3500px and thumbnailed so that is about the maximum.

:::I'm not sure what thumbnail software we use on Orain tbh.. pretty tired right now but will look into that more in the near future.. :)
