LifeWiki talk:AUTOSTART

There seems to be an issue with LifeViewer commands being interpreted as links. For example, things like "#C [[ AUTOSTART ]]" are being interpreted as #C AUTOSTART . As a result, this page is the single most common red link on the wiki currently. --A for awesome (talk) 21:46, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, that got mentioned in the Tiki Bar discussion a day or two ago. It's due to an accidental similarity between viewerconfig format and LifeWiki link format. But I'm not sure it's much of an issue -- we can make the problem go away just by putting some text on this AUTOSTART page. Any obvious flaws in that method? Guess I'll try it and find out!

The only (very minor) downside to having this "article" is that it may occasionally appear as a random page. Apple Bottom (talk) 10:18, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

Considering all the other things that can show up as a random page, I don't think this is even a minor downside -- though maybe more information and links should be added to the AUTOSTART page. I just clicked Special:Random and got the Tutorials/Scripts page, for example, and the AUTOSTART page seems like it gives, or could give, information vaguely along the lines of a tutorial.

What would be a good category for this page? 77topaz (talk) 21:58, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
