Fix odd line and tablet layout

User:JaimeS the previous change didn't work, so the message layout is wrong on the dark Timeless skin. Can you change the code on MediaWiki:Sitenotice to this please, without the "pre" tag lines and without any blank lines.

{{#ifeq: {{CURRENTMONTH}} | 12 | {{FundraisingSiteNotice}} |
<div class="left border-notice">
<div class="center">'''MEpedia announcement(s) for all registered users:'''</div>
<hr>
*(August 12, 2022) Congratulations to MEpedia for 30 million views! Thanks to all our contributors.
</div>}} 

I have also updated the message to say 30 million visits now. Thanks ~Njt (talk) 11:14, August 10, 2022 (UTC)

Odd line

User:JaimeS There's an odd line above the bullet point, because the previous heading was deleted when the page was changed. Can one of these two changes be made to remove it:

1. Change the''' <hr> '''line to''' <br /> ''' ("hr" creates a horizontal ruled line).

2. Keep the "hr" but add the original heading back in above by by copying these lines right above the "hr" line:

<div class="white-border" style="text-align: center">'''MEpedia announcement(s) for all registered users:'''</div>

(don't copy the "pre" tag lines) That should sort the problem. I added the extra "white-border" part for the dark timeless skin only - to get the border color to be white instead of bright blue which looks weird over dark grey. ~Njt (talk) 22:38, October 26, 2021 (UTC)

Done option 1, but didn't fix it ~Njt (talk) 11:14, August 10, 2022 (UTC)

Different border color on Dark skin

This change is included in the message request above

The bright blue color looks bad on the timeless darkskin. Please change the code as follows to change the border color for the dark skin only: Old code - line 2: <div style="border-style: solid; border-color: blue; border-width: 5px; text-align: left"> New code: <div class="white-border" style="border-style: solid; border-color: blue; border-width: 5px; text-align: left"> Thanks ~Njt (talk) 19:02, October 8, 2020 (UTC)

Align text on the left, instead of centering it

Hi User:Kmdenmark! Could you copy over the below text to this page, without the <pre> tags? The only change is that the text is now aligned to the left, instead of being centered. Thanks!

Suggestion

I think the message should have an extra bit dated Aug 2019 to link to the updated MEpedia:Editorial guidelines and MEpedia:Science guidelines, then existing editors are aware of changes. It may be worth having a link to MEpedia:New features for editors (I can create this page), which can be used to let people know of new things as they are added. We are added quite a lot of new tweaks and tools. notjusttired (talk) 06:16, July 31, 2019 (EDT)

Change of formatting

I think it should be changed from a table to div elements. I don't see the point in having a one column, 1 row table. New code below. See above for suggestion on updating the message (the message ID would need increasing of this is done). Thanks ~Njt (talk) 15:15, November 15, 2019 (EST) User:Kmdenmark User:Pyrrhus
