Can I apply different CSS if a user is logged in?[edit]
Hello, I'm trying to make something a bit like https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:HideSidebar just using CSS, to hide some potentially confusing advanced functionality from anonymous users. Is there a way for me to know whether a mediawiki user is logged in or not this way? EdSaperia (talk) 20:13, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

- Is there a wikimedia:css page that only affects anonymous browsers? so, non-logged-in users? Samballand99 (talk) 09:47, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
- I didn't see anything in Special:AllMessages that looked like this (but I only spent about a minute looking). Not css, but you can set a sitenotice for anonymous users by using MediaWiki:Anonnotice. For what it's worth. Killiondude (talk) 17:50, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
- You could probably just set stuff in MediaWiki:Common.css and then override it in MediaWiki:Group-user.css. This is CSS, after all. PiRSquared17 (talk) 17:52, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

Error[edit]
I got an error when trying to edit a page, but now I can't reproduce it. Can someone look at the logs for w:Talk:C: The Contra Adventure (a while ago)? PiRSquared17 (talk) 18:39, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
