View Full Version : Wiki Search - Case Sensitivity

This is mainly a quality of life improvement request but any way we could get the search bar drop down results on the wiki to not be case sensitive? It appears that it ignores case at the beginning of search strings but not for each subsequent word.

Examples

Beginning of string:

Subsequent word lowercase:

Subsequent word uppercase:

It can also be deceiving for instances when the wiki doesn't match the capitalization of the item/mob in the game:

* Yeah, I am aware the the results still come up on a separate page if you hit enter/click or click the "containing..." option. This is just in reference to the "autofill" drop down.

Looks like there's a MediaWiki extension which offers exactly that:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TitleKey

However, extensions have to be installed by the P99 team; "wiki admins" like myself don't have the power. This means you'll have to publicly beg/make the case for the extension to the staff (as I did to get the Multi-Category Search extension installed), or PM Rogean and sell him on the idea.

Oh what does the Wiki Admin title allow you to do? I just signed up for a wiki account this morning and have been going through correcting some things. And right now I'm going through every NPC and item associated with High Keep and removing all references of Highpass Keep. lol *wipes sweat from brow*
