WikiNews Update To The Wiki January 2012

From OpenFOAMWiki

The software basis of the Wiki has been updated. Due to a leap in the version numbers and unforseen problems with the update of the machine the Wiki runs on this resulted in a downtime of several hours.

The Wiki is now operational again and as far as I can tell everything is working as expected. If you encounter any problems please contact me. Either over the message board or be editing the discussion-page of this article (not the article itself).

There are two visible differences:

  1. the Wiki uses a different default skin (and the skin can not be changed anymore)
  1. On the bottom of each page there is the possiblity to share this page on Facebook, Twitter or Google+. Usually this kind of button sends information to that service as soon as you view the page. I don't think that it is their business where you surf. Therefore sharing the page requires 2 clicks. The first click allows them to track you, the second click actually shares the page
