Wiki Updates, August 7, 2007
- Community Portal link added to Navigation toolbar
- Search function now includes Category and User namespaces by default
- My Preferences -> Search can be used to toggle which namespaces to search*
- IE7 compatibility is being worked on
Many thanks to Gstaff and TS7 (and a third Bethesda employee whose username I do not know) for implementing these for us.
* I had to do this for myself... it may be that our user preferences are set to the old default.

- New toys, awesome! I also had to change the preferences, it's probably not changing already saved settings. --Qazaaq 17:45, 7 August 2007 (EDT)
In case anyone missed it, I updated the Main Page with these updates. I've also shuffled things around a bit and such. Commentary on that would be nice. By the way, the News section is a template which is not locked - you can find that here.

- I saw that, looks great, but with that welcome at full width I always think someone applied one of your templates to the main page. Makes me wonder what's wrong for a split second, before I remember it's supposed to be like this. A little annoying but I'll probably get used to it.
- Anyway, I like the news section you made, it's a good way to inform people that don't visit the community portal page. Maybe it's a good idea to put a "Go to the Community Portal for the latest news and discussion!" line at the bottom. Although I doubt you'll get ever anyone but a few regular authors and editors at this page.

- I had to make the welcome full width, the News would have been off the bottom of the screen otherwise, and I doubt people would see it if they had to scroll for it. Plus, the big change will make them look and try to figure out what's going on.
- Anyway, I like the idea about the Check out the Community Portal thing at the bottom, I'm going to include that.
