Official Site

On the official site, there are two devotionals that aren't up on the main page here. Links: Game for a Mystery — Devotional: All Your Heart and Clutter — Devotional: Stuff, Stuff, and more Stuff. AriaCurzonFan 10:09, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

I already added the the link for tthe devotional for Clutter in the Clutter episode newsitem. The the link for the Game for a Mystery devotional has not posted because there is no newsitem about that episode yet. When someone creates that newsitem they can add that link.

Game for a Mystery has aired and it hasn't been put on the News area. How do put put it in? AriaCurzonFan 10:26, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Footer Disclaimer wording - should it be changed?

I noticed that the footer for every page has a disclaimer with this text:

'The site is in no way affiliated with Focus and the Family. "Adventures in Odyssey" is a registered trademark of Focus on the Family' (emphasis added)

I think the wording 'Focus and the Family' needs to be changed to 'Focus on the Family', which is the actual name of the organization. I'm not sure why the first instance uses 'and'. The second instance gets the name correct. This is something an administrator must change, as far as I can tell. The footer is not simply an included page, but is outside of wiki user editing.

Commenting

I think you should be able to leave a comment on the a post on the homepage without giving your email, or any accounts you have. You can create an account here without giving your email, so I think you should certainly be able to leave a comment on a post (on the home page) without giving your email or another account.

i was originally wanting to use a different wiki based system called liquid threads, I'd still like to use it but development is slow right and last time i looked at it it wasn't ready for use yet, I'll look into it again Reddo 20:47, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Userboxes

If anyone would like me to make them a userbox just tell me on my talk page Mitchfan~ Acts 16:31~WWJD~ 23:51, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

User Pages

How does one get a User Page? I think it should be when you get an AIOwiki account. I recently became a member, and I don't have a page, but I know Jared and Reddo have their own pages. Sewer Rat (See that? I know my username's in blue, but that's only because there's an AIO character named Sewer Rat!!)

Your user talk page is automatically created when you're approved as a user. (User talk:Sewer Rat) From there, you can click on the User page tab in the top left of the page. You can also just go here. To put a signature in, use four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically do as you assign in your preferences. God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 14:48, 3 September 2012 (MDT)

The Ties That Bind

All the countdowns on the Main Page are 'Now Available', so can you do a countdown to The Ties That Bind, Part 2 or The Perfect Gift?. I love eugene (talk) 12:39, 7 September 2014 (MDT)

Done Erwin Springer [talk] 12:42, 7 September 2014 (MDT)

Great, but it says the perfect gift is now available. I love eugene (talk) 15:23, 7 September 2014 (MDT)

Good catch. Fixed. Erwin Springer [talk] 18:12, 7 September 2014 (MDT)

Ok, and can you change the "The Dropbox" now available? I love eugene (talk) 13:58, 26 October 2014 (MDT) Good. But this is Crazy, countdowns! We want More Countdowns! But there aren't enough! I love eugene (talk) 09:13, 6 December 2014 (MST)

Today's Episode

Was Showing a DPL Error because the Schedule page was linking to a redirect?? maybe. I changed the 11/22 schedule page from Forever...Amen to Forever, Amen and then it seemed to fix the home page ~ OdysseyFan (talk) 13:40, 22 November 2016 (MST)

Yep you fixed it Scientific Guy (talk / AIOC Episode Timeline) 15:43, 23 November 2016 (MST)

April 1st News

I don't know if I'm the only one that feels this way, but I believe that the news blurbs we write on the main page should be un-opinionated and just give the news. Past news items have been like that and I think it should continue to be like that. That way, like the rest of the site, it's just plain info that people can form their own opinions on and not us taking one side or another. I hope I've been politely communicated my thoughts properly. No hard feeling towards anyone! :) Peachey Keen (talk) 20:07, 1 April 2017 (MDT)

I agree. I saw it and thought it looked weird. AIOrocks101 (talk) 20:40, 1 April 2017 (MDT)

DPL issue?

Why is the New Releases Items all Spaced out now? ~ OdysseyFan (talk) 05:57, 23 June 2017 (MDT)

"Current Podcasts" is incorrect

The "Current Podcasts" box shows Official Podcast 326 as the most recent one, but it should be Official Podcast 327. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WootonBasset (talk • contribs)

The cache probably just needed to be cleared so the new episode could be seen by the Main Page. It looks like the Main Page is now showing the change. :) — Eugene [talk] 14:32, 11 April 2019 (MDT)

Okay, Great! :) WootonBasset (talk) 09:22, 12 April 2019 (MDT)

Promos for new episodes

Someone needs to change the promos for the new episodes, because The Inspiration Station, Part 2 has The Inspiration Station, Part 1 Promo and Clutter has The Inspiration Station, Part 2 Promo. Seriously, why don't you let auto-confirmed users edit the main page? It is becoming really annoying that I am not able to edit it. AIOCREFan 00:07, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

There is really no need for changes on the main page itself. If you look at the page source, you will see that all of the information is contained in templates. The new episodes template is simply Template:New Episodes. I just fixed it. God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk 00:18, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

yeah you can edit any of the subsections of the page, you just can't add new ones or change the color of it, only reason it's like that is so things like this don't happen Reddo 17:08, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

User Pages

Are we permitted to create our own User pages that tell a little about ourselves?

Yes for sure Reddo (talk) 20:48, 29 March 2020 (MDT)

The Rydell Revelations, Part 3 Countdown

I believe the countdown is incorrect. A more correct countdown would be this. Thanks, JaySmouse (talk | Adventures in Opinions) 03:31, 26 July 2020 (MDT)

No, the Wiki's countdown is correct in that it counts down to July 28th. We don't know exactly what time on July 28th the episode will be released, but I have a feeling it'll be before 10 PM EST (when your countdown ends). Cartoon Nostalgia 06:57, 26 July 2020 (MDT)
