It might be useful for people to have a quick shortcut to the [[Keybinds]] page between [[Horn of the Abyss]] and [[Movement]] on the main page for ease of access. [[File:Hero Cosmos small.gif|link=special:contributions/phasma|→ Phasma]] 11:30, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

The new outlook seems handy, but can't we transfer the download links down below to the "HD Mod" section or somewhere alike? I guess HotA is so big at this point it kind of solidified its position, but should these links stay here? I would do it myself but;

: While the wiki has heretofore been focused mostly on Horn of the Abyss, I would like for it be a welcome place for all things projects related to Heroes 3. I see adding these links to the main page as a gesture in this direction. –[[user_talk:imahero|imahero]] 22:45, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

:: I can make a new menu for mods :) I'll post it on Discord later today! [[File:Hero Cosmos small.gif|link=special:contributions/phasma|→ Phasma]] 16:53, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
:: It's on the main menu now under a new tab & feel free to change the links as you see fit. I've linked WoG and VCMI to our pages for now! [[File:Hero Cosmos small.gif|link=special:contributions/phasma|→ Phasma]] 00:24, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

== Links to SoD, AB, HotA ==
== Links to SoD, AB, HotA ==
* We all somehow missed links to [[SoD]], [[HotA]] and [[AB]]. Considering that the images already have "complete", "Horn of the Abyss", "Restoration of Erathia" "Armageddon's Blade" and "Shadow of Death" in each tab, how about we use these words as a placement of a link to the appropriate expansion pages? - [[User:Csaros|Csaros]] ([[User talk:Csaros|talk]])
** Not a bad idea. Then we'd just be missing a link to [[Heroes Chronicles]]. --[[User:Legate|Legate]] ([[User talk:Legate|talk]]) 16:21, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
*** That's what the imagemaps wiki extension would be useful for, since really only the logos should be clickable in that case. I feel like the campaign pages are enough, personally, but if more people think it's a good idea then it's very doable with imagemaps.

Why has the main page changed back to its original state? I think the new look is great. --[[User:Sanust|Sanust]] ([[User talk:Sanust|talk]]) 04:35, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
: It hasn't. I just noticed that if you have a slow internet connection, the new main page takes a while to show up. So I made the legacy main page appear immediately to be replaced when the page actually finishes loading. –[[user_talk:imahero|imahero]] 05:02, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
:: Unbelievable! That's so amazing... You really did a nice work! --[[User:Sanust|Sanust]] ([[User talk:Sanust|talk]]) 05:15, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
: I liked the original. Can we get an opt-out page with old interface last? I don't like having everything splattered over several menus, that's impractical.
:: I added a modern/legacy toggle in the upper right corner. Let me know if you find a bug! –[[user_talk:imahero|imahero]] 06:59, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
 
== New logo ==
Why does the new logo for this wiki have the word "unofficial" on it? There can't be an "official wiki" for this game. -- ''[[User:Nick Bud|Nick Bud]] ([[User talk:Nick Bud|talk]]) 07:21, 10 February 2024 (UTC)''
* Well, that's exactly the point. It is unofficial. We don't have Ubisoft executives breathing down our backs and telling us what to put here, but we also don't have David Mullich checking if the articles are correct. This makes it unofficial - [[User:Csaros|Csaros]] ([[User talk:Csaros|talk]])
** The wiki in the Fandom system is simply called the ''Might & Magic wiki'' (rus: "Меч и Магия вики"). The fact that it is unofficial is immediately clear. I think this clarification is unnecessary. -- ''[[User:Nick Bud|Nick Bud]] ([[User talk:Nick Bud|talk]]) 13:30, 10 February 2024 (UTC)''
 
== CSS style when hovering links ==
 
since the links are stylised to the game's menu style, it would be nice to have a decent hover effect to mimic the effect from the game when hovering over the icons :)
 
(I wanted to post an example image to see the effect, but since my account is freshly created I am not allowed to.)
<pre>
.mainpage .tabs-content div div:hover {
    -webkit-filter: drop-shadow(0px 0px 7px rgba(255, 255, 255, 1)) drop-shadow(0px 0px 4px rgba(255, 255, 255, 1));
}
</pre>
This goes to [[MediaWiki:Common.css]]
:*I love this idea and thought of doing it with individually created images I would make, but if this simple code function works then I am all for it! So much more refined and less heavy on image content. [[File:Hero Cosmos small.gif|link=user:phasma|→ Phasma]] 04:24, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
::* Yes, in fact, icons, and much more can be done completely with CSS styles :) But since images are already done it's not necessary to do so. But if you want to help with web graphics, let me know (preferably on Discord, nickname: Jouki, or I can join the wiki's Discord). I am an admin on several other Wikis doing a "technician" role regarding graphics (mainly on Dead By Daylight) - just to prove I'm not a random scammer or anything like that [[User:Jouki|Jouki]] ([[User talk:Jouki|talk]]) 08:20, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
:::* I added the css. Did it work? –[[user_talk:imahero|imahero]] 12:17, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
::::* Oh wow, it does! It looks wonderful! [[File:Hero Cosmos small.gif|link=user:phasma|→ Phasma]] 18:31, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
