UCX implementation
Hi! I’m Héctor, one of the Fandom Community Managers. I’m here to talk with you about the upcoming changes we will experiment on the wikis when the new UCX will be released. As a result, we’ll have to adapt the current content - mainly the design and implemented code - to ensure they’re compatible and operational.

Specifically talking, the UCX will mainly affect the Frontpage, the design (logo, background, favicon, themes), the CSS/JS used and some templates that should adapt their look to it. While the wiki will still be migrated some weeks later, I’m here to work alongside you to anticipate all the work regarding review, improvements and adaptation to the new skin.

If you agree, I’ll start soon, reviewing the mentioned elements and describing to you what work should be done. For the case of the design, I can work with the future version, that will be working once the wiki will be migrated. Regarding the frontpage, templates and the code, I can work and implement the changes now, to have them properly working both in the present and the future, but having all the changes done in advance.

Let me know if you have any comments about it and we can explore together the upcoming changes. Thanks! --CuBaN VeRcEttI (Contact) 17:09, 10 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi there! I'm perfectly fine with you going ahead and getting the wiki up-to date for the new UCX. Shanomac9975992 (talk) 21:14, 14 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Awesome! I'll start with it ASAP. Thanks! --CuBaN VeRcEttI (Contact) 18:29, 18 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi again! I've almost finished all the work here. This is what I've been mainly doing:
 * Added the style to the frontpage sections in the new page for the UCX skin, compatible with both themes (using CSS variables).
 * I created 2 themes, the dark one mostly based in the current one (but with some needed adjustments).
 * I re-uploaded the logo. The favicon wasn't able to be uploaded (a current bug to be fixed soon), and the background is up to you because they're working differently with the UCX.
 * Regarding CSS, I basically created CSS classes for the frontpage and other templates. Especially the infoboxes, that were previously defined one by one. With the classes, you can define all of them at one side (the mediawiki page), and this is easier by far for any small change you would do with the wiki. I also put the current style for them in the hydradark.css page, and the new one (based in CSS variables) in the fandomdesktop.css page to be compatible with both themes.


 * The only pending task right now is the re-styling of the navboxes. I've realized all of them are defined one by one (like the infoboxes before) but actually using another template (navbar) that defined the style using the style tag (but not a class), so I can't adapt it using classes through CSS. I put this task as pending, and you can personally change all the navboxes, basing their design in classes and not styles (you can take a look to all the infoboxes) and later define the classes in both hydradark.css (for the current skin, until the migration) and fandomdesktop.css (for the UCX skin, after the migration). --CuBaN VeRcEttI (Contact) 09:14, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Opt-in release
Hello again! As we have announced in our new blog, the opt-in exploration is available to you now! You can basically take a look at the main areas of the wiki, but as I explained the main things you should keep into account are the frontpage, the tables and their style, and other templates like infoboxes and navboxes. All of this, always thinking about the option of switching between the light and dark theme and all the content should be readable and adapted to both at the same time. In addition, all the wikis have to create a combination of colors for the light and dark theme, using the ThemeDesigner tool, and also re-upload the logo and favicon, and optionally the background (but it will work differently as header background, so it’s up to you what we’ll do with it on your wiki).

I already adapted the content and code to be compatible with FandomDesktop (the new skin), and also created the 2 themes and re-uploaded the assets. You can perfectly make any change to the ThemeDesigner and/or the Mediawiki pages, but I really encourage you to talk with me first. I’ve been adapting it, and I put some concrete stuff (colors in the ThemeDesigner, code in the MW pages and in one page but not another) for concrete reasons (basically to have all compatible with both themes), so to be more practical I think it’s better if we discuss about any proposal/issue/preference you could find/want before make changes. Thanks for everything! --CuBaN VeRcEttI (Contact) 20:37, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

P.S: In your case, like I shared in my last message, the wiki still needed to re-style all their code of the navboxes, moving from concrete style on each use to a general class, defined in the CSS pages.


 * Looks like it's mostly working to us! There are a few things we want to change but the wiki team still needs to discuss them. We will definitely contact you before making any changes/preferences we have. I'll take a look at the navboxes sometime soon. What would be the best way to get into contact with you, this talk page, discord (we have our own server with our team if you prefer), or some other means? Thanks for all the help migrating us through this! Shanomac9975992 (talk)


 * I can discuss with you where you prefer. I've added you as a friend in Discord just in case. --CuBaN VeRcEttI (Contact) 12:39, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
