| == Consistency between application pages ==
| |
| In my opinion, there are serious consistency issues between various application pages: [[Kontact]], [[Amarok]], [[Kopete]] and [[Konqueror]] all appear to be quite different in layout, some more different then others. I think a single, consistent application template needs to be created and applied to these pages and any others that are spied as being inconsistent.

| == Multilanguage ==
| |
| | |
| Are there any plans to have pages in other language than english? In Techbase it is really nice to have it. Specially users are frequently using only there native language. Cheers. --[[User:Mark Ziegler|Mark Ziegler]] 12:52, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :The multilanguage template is in place, see (and use) [[Template:I18n/Language_Navigation_Bar|this template]]. --[[User:Danimo|danimo]] 16:17, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| ::Should we add i18n template to every page or just for main pages? --[[User:Mark Ziegler|Mark Ziegler]] 09:59, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| ::Is it possible to just provide a wiki platform, and let users to fill it in our own native language instead of translating the original page? I mean, for example, make a page http://userbase.kde.org/zh_TW/ or a site called http://zh_TW.userbase.kde.org/. -- [[User:Franklin|Franklin]]
| |
| | |
| :::The problem as I see it is that information would not be exchanged across all available languages. I don't know the answer to that, so would welcome any suggestions. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 09:21, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| ::::I do not see any problem, this is how wikipedia.org work. If needed, we can develop a script to do some verifications accross all userbase wiki. What do you think about that? --[[User:Sheedy|Sheedy]] 05:45, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :::::You mean it would be possible to pick up content from any language and have it translated to all the other languages? Even if it could only be done to English plus three or four languages it would be awesome. This is way beyond my capability, so please tell us more about what you envisage. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 20:49, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

| :Hi there, nice initiative for KDE fans! Uh, just raising a question here. Should the ''Random page'' link '''really''' take you to a page in a different language? I personally guess not. Not much fun / use / value in being redirected to a random chinese page (obviously I can't read chinese). Any other opinions?
| |
| | |
| ::Fair point, but I think it might need webdev/php skills to do anything about that, and I don't have them. Sorry. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 16:15, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

| == KDE versions ==
| |
| | |
| How can we easily indicate at each page, for which KDE version this information is valid ?
| |
| Maybe some templates, at least with 3.x, 4.x, distribution-specific.
| |
| Or each app can have box on their page with info about "what you have to do to have this app on your system". So for example for konqueror there will write that it is available in every kde install. For plasmoids there will be info that you need kde4 and packages this and that. Etc.
| |
| --[[User:Ajuc|Ajuc]] 15:02, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :I vote for it. Having a small indicator for kde3 or kde4 would be nice. --[[User:Mark Ziegler|Mark Ziegler]] 11:00, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| ::I would like to see that, as well as indicators for skill levels where appropriate. To get started we really need some dedicated icons, though. I don't think they need to be as detailed as oxygen icons, so maybe this is something we could do ourselves? Open to suggestions on that.
| |
| | |
| :::I just created two templates for those:
| |
| :::{{KDE3}}
| |
| ''Note: See follow-up below'' | |
| :::Please put comments in the Discussion tab of [[Template:KDE3]] and [[Template:KDE4]] if there's something you need done with it. --[[User:Jucato|Jucato]]
| |
| | |
| ::::It was decided that the KDE4 tag is redundant so it was removed. The default information that should be on the wiki is for KDE 4. Only KDE3-specific information needs to be tagged with <tt><nowiki>{{KDE3}}</nowiki></tt>. All references to the KDE4 tag have been removed. --[[User:Jucato|Jucato]]
| |
| | |
| Also, suggestions on form of icon - a circle with KDEx? circle with Skillx? They may be difficult to read at small sizes. Please give us some ideas. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 11:55, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

| hm, what about things that are written for 4.2 only for example (new features)? could it be done that the changes appear then when 4.2 is released? and perhaps a new icon is needed then to distinguish 4.1 and 4.2. [[User:Katastrophe|Katastrophe]] 00:23, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
| |
| :The contents of the wiki should reflect information about the current stable release when it's available. Features planned for future releases can be found in [http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules] while new features or changes are provided in release announcements. For features that are available in the current stable but not in previous stable releases, those should just be noted when appropriate. I don't think a separate icon tag is necessary.
| |
| | |
| ::However, when a new feature like that is added it would be wise to mention which version first carries it. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 07:18, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

| == KDE4 feature from KDE 3 ==
| |
| | |
| There is a very useful feature in KDE 3 that I am waiting for in KDE 4. The ability to click anywhere on the desktop and have it pull up my application menu. I do not know what this feature is officially called, but This is really the last big piece of functionality that I am waiting on before taking the plunge to KDE 4 on all of my machines.

| In truth I had found that applications do have a screenshot (such as Okular [http://userbase.kde.org/Okular]), but I don't think it is enough.

| == Locking widgets doesn't work correctly ==
| |
| | |
| Hi,
| |
| I have KDE 4.2 installed. I personalized the taskbar according to my needs with the icons and spaces I require. Once I'm happy with the looks, I lock the widgets. However, every time I restart the computer, the icons are displaced and the spacers have a different size :-( Why aren't the widgets really locked when I lock them? Is there a way to avoid them being messed up?
| |
| Thanks,
| |
| Connie
| |
| | |
| :Hi Connie. I'm not sure what's happening here - they behave themselves on my system, and have done since 4.1 (4.0 drove you mad with that behaviour :-) ). Can I ask you to subscribe to the kde user list (https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde) and ask the question there? I'm sure we can get some answers for you. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 18:57, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
