Page restore for Skin:Aurora

Per my personal interest to learn more about the skin and how it was used with SocialProfile, I would like to have the latest revision of that page available to me by restoring it to my user subpage. Song Ngư (talk) 02:27, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Better yet, you could just ask someone who's worked on that skin, like me or Isarra. ;-) The MW.org page didn't really have anything meaningful, since it's kinda hard to have meaningful info on a proprietary skin that isn't available for general download. That being said, Aurora does not have nor has ever had any kind of special integration with SocialProfile or any of the other social tools. The only extension that Aurora, and many other skins for that matter, "knows" about, is Extension:Echo. And unlike for skins like Monaco or Nimbus, the Echo-specific code in Aurora is literally just one <div> as oppposed to a surprisingly daunting amount of actual program logic, as is the case with Nimbus (and Monaco, they basically share the same Echo integration code).

Please feel free to contact me on my talk page if you have any further questions about ShoutWiki, ShoutWiki's skins, social tools or even MediaWiki skinning in general — chances are I'm pretty qualified to answer such questions. :-) Jack Phoenix _(Contact) 21:44, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
