Customization instructions

[edit]

To add custom entries, adapt this code, and place it in your common.js:

// Add custom Character Inserter entries
window.charinsertCustom = { 
	"Insert": ' Mention: {\{u|+}}  {\{ping|+}}', 
	"Wiki markup": ' Mention: {\{u|+}}  {\{ping|+}}' 
};

that will append the {{u}} and {{ping}} code to the indicated menus.

  • Note1: The "+" in those items, is where your cursor will appear after the text is inserted, or if you already have text highlighted when you click them then that text will be properly surrounded by the templates.
  • Note2: You can also remove or change the word "Mention:" - anything that is followed by a colon seems to get turned into a heading - Use_underscores_for_multi_word_headings: like so.
  • Note3: use a dot ( . ) for any spacing needed in such things as inline css class or id assignments. For example. -- the space needed between the words span and class in <span.class="plainlinks">+</span>
  • Note4: to include a single literal \ use four backslashes ( \\\\ ) (will appear as double-\ on menu display.) E.g. <math>\\\\scriptstyle{+}</math>.

How to insert a full stop?

[edit]

I've been using the instructions at #Customization to construct some custom inserts. But my desired inserts include actual full stops (.), which of course get converted to spaces. Also this seems unescapable using e.g. \.. Is there an established way of insering these? / Lokal_Profil 10:36, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

My current work around is to subst a template thqt only contains a full stop, but that feels a bit ridiculous. / Lokal_Profil 09:08, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
May need to update something in MediaWiki:Gadget-charinsert-core.js; if you sandbox it and make it work and have a suggestion let us know. — xaosflux Talk 10:29, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

IPA section

[edit]

For some reason, it lists some vowels, notably ɛ (which is an open-mid front unrounded vowel) as close-mids, and it shouldn’t be like this БудетЛучше (talk) 18:20, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What interface are you talking about? If you mean CharInsert's IPA section, ⟨ɛ⟩ appears correctly with other open-mids. Nardog (talk) 03:48, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

#editpage-specialchars a {
	background-color: #f9f9f9;

with

div#editpage-specialchars {

	border: 1px solid var( --border-color-base, #a2a9b1 );
	padding: .5em 1em;
}

#editpage-specialchars a {
