The steltenpool hp/mp checker website has expired. Not sure about others but I used it almost daily! Any way to activate it again?

I believe the only way to get it back would be for someone to directly contact maarten, I've had no luck on facebook though. Another option would be for someone who plays and can program to make another. The last option would be to ask JLH to make one. --IceCold 12:54, 3 March 2014 (EST)
Dont think I have it anymore, I once offered everything in a zip file on the forum for anyone to download. It had all my pictures, Cule's pictures and anything I could find, including the script I reckon. Pretty sure on my side it's gone, but I'll check a backup or two (someone else might've got all of it though). --Angelus (talk) 11:53, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
Found it :) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17367627/nightmist.rar. Should even have my PSD's for the images, and has Cule's images as well, and the checker code --Angelus (talk) 13:14, 13 September 2014 (UTC)


Why exactly has the Wiki page changed so much? The front page is far harder to navigate, the user pages and contribution leveling system is gone, the templates for pictures and such seem to be too far to the right. Is there a way to fix all these problems and essentially bring back the older version? Why also, are peoples accounts missing?

The Wiki code had to be updated due to an exploit that lead to my account being hacked. It seems a lot of templates got lost as a result. --WhiteCrane (talk) 12:15, 4 December 2013 (UTC)
User pages and contribution leveling system might still be salvageable (if the DB was not changed, since I reckon it was saved there), would just mean adding the plugin(s) again. The layout was not mine, but an open source one, so that's easily fixed by adding it again. I might have changed some tiny bits, but easily done again. The front page I did add some specific CSS. Although if the wiki was updated, it might've left my stuff alone if I did it properly (added to self made files instead of changing the mediawiki ones). But even if it's gone, it's easily fixable. Since the page should be still the same only missing some CSS and an image.--Angelus (talk) 12:00, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
I appreciate the update maarten. I personally wouldn't know how to make those changes though and I don't believe any of us have access to the DB? When we had checked before and tried to revert, a lot of the functionality was missing for some reason and we couldn't figure out how to get it back to the old version. I think we would love to have your help in getting it back to where it use to be. It isn't just the front page, there's some other things that dont work properly anymore also like lists. --IceCold 05:12, 17 September 2014 (EST)
I made the wiki locally, before shipping it of to JLH. To add the extensions and design again I would need access to the back-end somehow, which I'm unlikely to get, so there's not much I can do. I think this was the award extension (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SocialProfile), tables might still be there. And the skin came from http://www.paulgu.com/wiki/Mediawiki_Skins. --Angelus (talk) 18:57, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

Haha, I love the way how I linked areas (even though it's a total rip-off). Now can run around nightmist without logging on.
