What's happened?[edit source]

What happened to the navigation? Although all the code is here, the actual navigation's gone all...er...boring. ―The Tim Man (Infinite HistoriesGalactic CruciblesThe Sims WikiHallows MaleficentWhy I'm here in the first place) 07:43, December 25, 2014 (UTC)

I honestly don't know but I've got a couple of things to say:
  • Since we didnt alter anything its probably fair to say its on wikia's end, not ours
  • This part is particularly interesting: I tried to edit it and there was no edit button. The same thing happened when I tried to revert to a previous edit. Perhaps most interesting is this, however: I performed a rollback to the version we had in October, and the header not only is unchanged but its as if the edit didnt even happen, with no record in the logs. I'll make a note of this elsewhere, thanks for posting this. ђ talk 09:43, December 25, 2014 (UTC)
? Is there anything wrong with the navigation? Nikel Talk Vote! 11:37, December 25, 2014 (UTC)
Appearance seems to have returned to normal, it was missing the games/community/interact tabs. Still doesn't appear to be editable however. ђ talk 11:45, December 25, 2014 (UTC)
I guess it fixed itself then. I don't know what's wrong, but it's editable. You have to be in preview mode first before you publish the edit. Nikel Talk Vote! 11:52, December 25, 2014 (UTC)
Wikia is known for breaking things without warning, and they seem to be silly accidents or even just plain ignorance. It just seems incomprehensible that they didn't test the new Navbar From Hell on darker wikis before they even thought of releasing it. They only seem to look at one door and forget about the rest. --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 14:02, December 25, 2014 (UTC)
