Anyone know why my sig is pasting the whole code in everytime I use it rather than just subst'ing?
The nickname field in my preferences looks like this: {{subst:User:Percephene/sig}} <span style="color:#FF3399"><small>{{subst:#time:h:i, d F Y}}</small></span>

- Wait, doesn't subst mean to paste in the whole code? --Bry 09:50, 10 May 2008 (EDT)
- Dunno but it doesn't do that on uncyc and I used the exact same code? ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 05:10, 11 May 2008
- I'd suggest trying the sig with "subst" removed in both places -- if it doesn't do what you want then, you can put it back, right? --Bry 01:16, 11 May 2008 (EDT)
- I mean both places in your code, not both places "here and Uncyc". --Bry 01:17, 11 May 2008 (EDT)
- Theres only one subst, in the preferences bit, which I've removed and it still does it :( ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 12:20, 12 May 2008
- Argh, Mediawiki formatting. If you've been checking the Recent Changes, you'll see that it's more or less the only reason for about 90% of the sixty-odd (I exaggerate) changes I made between tonight and last night... Here's what you need to do -- make a second sig page, say User:Percephene/sig2, consisting only of: {{User:Percephene/sig}}, and then change your nickname in your preferences to {{subst:User:Percephene/sig2}} <span style="color:#FF3399"><small>{{subst:#time:h:i, d F Y}}</small></span>. And hopefully when I sign my name here it'll say Bry and not Percephene... --Bry 21:06, 11 May 2008 (EDT)
- Yay!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Perhaps they have some hack at Uncyc to get around that. Wow so annoying!! :D Glad its fixed now ta! ~ Percephene ~ talk contribs 01:26, 12 May 2008
