The result of the move request was: page moved. (closed by non-admin page mover) GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 04:18, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Huggle/Feedback → Wikipedia talk:Huggle/Feedback – A lot of templates do not work under the Wikipedia namespace, including {{requested move}} and {{Edit template-protected}} (See [1]). Wikipedia talk seems a more appropriate place. 0xDeadbeef 10:10, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support since all of the talk pages of Huggle warnings redirect here, it's impossible to make an edit request without waiting forever. I made one 10 days ago and it hasn't been addressed. interstate five 20:49, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Use on Chromebook

Hi, how do I use it on Chromebook? Cheers. Alextejthompson (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 19:47, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Alextejthompson - I used to run Huggle on a Chromebook myself. You'll need to set up the Linux (Crostini) development environment, which you do from your Chromebook's settings page. Once you've opened the terminal, follow these instructions to install snapd. You should then be able to run the command "sudo snap install huggle" which will download Huggle to your Chromebook. Hopefully that works - let me know if you have any further questions! Patient Zero^talk 21:53, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you Patient Zero. Alextejthompson (Ping me or leave a message on my talk page) 23:06, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No worries! Patient Zero^talk 23:09, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing in queue

Just upgraded to 3.4.13, but even before with 3.4.12, no edits seem to appear in the queue, even with the all edits option. I managed to revert an edit by entering the page in the page input field, but the queue seems dead, with any of the providers XmlRcs, IRC and Wiki. Is something broken, or I have missed something? - DVdm (talk) 15:45, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

More information:

Using Win 10 pro.
The logfile says: "Wed Jan 29 23:21:02 2025: ERROR: The webserver of enwiki requires that SSL is to be enabled. Please turn SSL on and try again. If you can't enable SSL (option is grayed out) you may need to install OpenSSL libraries to your system."
TLS 1.2 is active
Turned the firewall off, no effect (!)
Turned firewall on again, now the Wiki and IRC providers work. XmlRcs not.
Have set the preferred provider to Wiki in the feed options, but after close and re-open, the provider is IRC. Config file huggle.yaml.js lists preferred-provider: 0, which I manually set to 1, now it stays Wiki.

DVdm (talk) 23:13, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm having the exact same issue. I came here hoping for a fix.--Mojo Hand (talk) 15:07, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The question is: which is the best provider? Wiki and IRC work fine, but is XmlRcs —if it works— better? - DVdm (talk) 15:41, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weird that XmlRcs is the default provider.--Mojo Hand (talk) 16:18, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Having this exact same issue. --Patient Zero^talk 00:36, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It started working again for me when I changed provider on the system tab from XmlRcs to Wiki, but it seems slower to me.--Mojo Hand (talk) 00:41, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Done that as well Mojo Hand, and completely agree that it is now slower...! Patient Zero^talk 01:28, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Warnings occasionally going in wrong section

I have had a number of warning placed in the incorrect section. I am not sure what fraction. If a section with the current date and month is present, a warning may be placed in another section. Example: this warning went into the November 2024 section rather than the existing January 2025 section. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 18:45, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template-protected edit request on 6 February 2025

It is requested that an edit be made to the template-protected template at Template:Huggle/warn-unsor-2.
(edit · history · last · links · sandbox · edit sandbox · sandbox history · sandbox last edit · sandbox diff · transclusion count · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately.

Edit requests to template-protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. Consider making changes first to the template's sandbox before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |answered=yes parameter to deactivate the template.

Please replace {{{subst|}}} with <includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>. Currently, substituting this template leaves parser functions in the wikitext; I tested this change in the sandbox, and it fixes the issue. The change was already made a decade ago on {{uw-unsourced2}}, for the reasons explained at Wikipedia talk:Template index/User talk namespace/Archive 10 § safesubst: and Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/AnomieBOT 37. jlwoodwa (talk) 01:00, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Warning spacing bug

I've started noticing that when warning users sometimes the templates show up strange. For example here it went above the existing month made by cluebot and generally just had weird spacing issues. And here it also went above the existing month and into the 2021 one. I probably missed some but I wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this or if it's something on my end. Sophisticatedevening ^(talk) 00:16, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Adakiko do you think this is the same thing? Sophisticatedevening ^(talk) 00:19, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Sophisticatedevening: Huggle's warning went before the current month and year. That is the same problem I reported. I seem to notice it primarily when there are more than one section. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 00:54, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also happening to me. Catalyzzt (talk) 16:34, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone know a previous version that doesn't do this but still works? Sophisticatedevening ^(talk) 20:59, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Login Failed (on enwiki)

Hi there, I have heard good things about Huggle, and decided to give it a try. I created a bot password (Drdr150@Huggle), and tried to log in with it. I have triple checked that I am using the right password, but continue getting the following message: "Login failed (on enwiki): Incorrect username or password entered. Please try again." What am I doing wrong? drdr150 Yell at me Spy on me 16:41, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

1: You don't have rollback permissions

2: Are you using a bot account? Sophisticatedevening ^(talk) 18:24, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Are you able to log on with your normal account? Suspect same as above, you don't have rollback. — xaosflux ^Talk 20:11, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
