Cactus just reverted a change which repositioned the Note box ending }} brackets after the bugzilla link. The whole Note box text now does not display at all when viewing the FAQ. Timn played around with this trying to fix it and ended up placing the bug link outside the Note box. Reviewing the history of changes and going back a long way, it is apparent that the Template for the Note box was changed a long time ago, and since then when the bugzilla link is placed within the Note box start and ending brackets {{[[bugzilla:1612]]}} , the text no longer displays correctly. It just says "Important message here."
maybe these type of questions can go into a big list of db settings, there are a few pages like this

I also looked at how to include [[bugzilla:1612]] within the Note box text field so the text would still display, but I could not find any formatting rules or alternative. I did see that doing [[[[bugzilla:1612]]]] allowed the bugzilla link to display, but then the extra sets of brackets [[ ]] also displayed as plain text. I'd add that it is good practise to always verify/check any changes or corrections made, by clicking the Show preview button first, before committing those changes.

== Please keep the FAQ simple ==
 
  
Please, try not to make the FAQ to complicated like adding database keys to the repositories, such things should be listed somewhere else, for instance on the pages containing the database parameters and settings.
 
The FAQ should just as [[User:Snoble|Snoble]] says contain frequently asked questions, although I do not want to be the judge of when a question is considered frequently asked.

Is there some way this section could be better organized?  Alphabetized under subject perhaps?  The FAQ section seems to be getting quite large.

Proxypass Note box issue when bugzilla link included

Cactus just reverted a change which repositioned the Note box ending }} brackets after the bugzilla link. The whole Note box text now does not display at all when viewing the FAQ. Timn played around with this trying to fix it and ended up placing the bug link outside the Note box. Reviewing the history of changes and going back a long way, it is apparent that the Template for the Note box was changed a long time ago, and since then when the bugzilla link is placed within the Note box start and ending brackets {{bugzilla:1612}} , the text no longer displays correctly. It just says "Important message here." I also looked at how to include bugzilla:1612 within the Note box text field so the text would still display, but I could not find any formatting rules or alternative. I did see that doing [[bugzilla:1612]] allowed the bugzilla link to display, but then the extra sets of brackets [[ ]] also displayed as plain text. I'd add that it is good practise to always verify/check any changes or corrections made, by clicking the Show preview button first, before committing those changes. --RayMitchell 10:06, 22 January 2010
