Forum:Portable infoboxes and you

Hey guys!

As you probably already know, Wikia wants to make your content look as good on as many devices as possible. A big part of that effort has to do with modernising your infoboxes with some new code. Mobile devices just can't handle the old way of doing infoboxes. So we've come up with some new code that's easier for humans and portable devices to understands

In the case of Harry Potter, we've found that almost everything translates over exactly. Best of all you have to do almost nothing to get the new code. And you're not going to lose your intricately-coded color scheme. We've already coded all the new infoboxes and included the colour scheme that you've currently got active. Take a look at how closely these two infoboxes match:

New, portable version of Ministry of Magic individual infobox is at right; old version at left.

The main difference is the size of the signature; otherwise it's a pretty good match! Also, the "hide" button isn't really here anymore, but that's a legacy bit of programming that most people don't really use. Wookieepedia — on whose code your infoboxes are clearly based — decided to just abandon that feature going forward, so I've not made a big effort to include it here at Harry Potter.

Since there's so little difference between the current and new versions of the infoboxes, would you guys mind if I just started adding and converting the rest of the infoboxes? Feel free to put your comments below. I'll be back over the weekend to see what you think! Thanks a lot, guys! :) — CzechOut 08:36, March 2, 2016 (UTC)
