https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64685 --- Comment #16 from Romaine romaine.w...@gmail.com --- (In reply to Gilles Dubuc from comment #11) Yes, that sounds like a much better idea. Basically define the start and end date in the campaign settings, and have optional content/template settings to display before, during and after. I'll file it as a task. If that solves the caching of the campaign, it sounds fine to me. I am willing to implement it to all relevant campaigns if it works.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64685 --- Comment #9 from Gilles Dubuc gdu...@wikimedia.org --- You'll need to re-save the template and the changes should trickle down. The caching introduced at the end of last year was probably introduced as an operational necessity, I imagine that the lack of caching was inefficient. That sort of thing is rarely introduced for frivolous reasons, in all likelihood it means that the old cache-less technique was a strain on servers. The caching is what's preventing the time-based template from updating automatically. Re-saving each campaign shouldn't be necessary, just re-saving the common template should do the job. That sounds like a reasonable workaround to me. The automatic time-based conditions won't work (since you have to re-save the template anyway), but at least there's only one template to update for all campaigns. Thus it scales to any amount of campaigns running at the same time. I agree that having to re-save all campaigns would be a major inconvenience and time sink, but it's not necessary (granted, once again, that the template existed the last time the campaigns were saved). The issue of having to re-save the template at a specific time remains the only inconvenience, but it's a side-effect of the caching that I think can't be worked around easily. I'm not very familiar with templates, could you show me what rules/syntax are used for the time-based stuff? This way I could investigate how they work and if there's any chance the campaigns could support them better. I'm not very hopeful at this point, though, I think it's quite likely that this limitation is going to be impossible to avoid. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I tried to re-save the template but it did not work after Romaine re-saved each campaign.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64685 --- Comment #7 from Romaine romaine_w...@yahoo.com --- I do not think this describes the experienced problem. (We do not have a red link issue.) On top of the campaign, we want to be able to show a banner if the campaign has not started yet, a banner for if it is running or a banner if it has ended. With Wiki Loves Monuments we had about 100 campaigns we had to start. To prevent errors and to lighten the workload, we introduced in 2012 a timer template. This timer template automatically changes the banner (before, during or after) at certain points in time: when the contest starts or ends. This worked perfectly in both 2012 and 2013. Users see the banner and think: ok, now my uploads are eligible or not. Now with Wiki Loves Earth, we use exactly the same set-up and now it doesn't work any more. When the point of time is reached that a contest starts/ends, the campaign shows the previous banner template instead of the actual banner. (Previous it showed the actual banner.) Only when we did a null edit on every campaign, the right banner was shown. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64685 --- Comment #8 from Romaine romaine_w...@yahoo.com --- This problem of not showing the actual banner caused a lot of confusion at the beginning of this month and a lot of users reported this problem to us, it is an essential part of the infrastructure of contests. Wiki Loves Monuments is coming again in September with many campaigns, also at the end of this month and a month later this is a problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64685 --- Comment #5 from Gilles Dubuc gdu...@wikimedia.org --- OK, I think I've figured it out. Basically that caching was introduced and it has a couple of limitations, which I don't think we can avoid: The link between the campaign and the templates it uses will only be created if you create or save the campaign while the template exists. If you create the campaign before the templates it references, the connection won't be made and subsequent updates to the template won't get picked up. The workaround is to re-save the campaign once you've created the template. That create the link between the two and any subsequent update of the template will update the campaign. Secondly, the parent template (in this case https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Wiki_Loves_Earth_is_running ) needs to be saved in order for the update to trickle down to the template. That's a single save to update all the campaigns though. This is what you used to have, right? Lastly, the update that trickles down to the campaigns runs through a job, so it won't be immediate. I don't know what the job queue on Commons is usually like, but it could be seconds, minutes, or hours depending on the job queue at the time of the template update. Does that all make sense? I imagine you either ran into the red link issue (referencing templates before they exist) or the fact that the update is asynchronous. As for this caching, I imagine it was introduced for performance reasons. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
