issue
Hello Void. I wanted to reach out and request your support in resolving a table tools fragment error on my Omniversalis wiki. I'm getting tags on my articles whenever I use Template:Infobox officeholder, and I cannot isolate the template causing the problem. It was recommended on the community noticeboard that I look to you for assistance on the matter. I appreciate any support you can provide on the matter. Vivaporius (talk) 20:53, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * sorry for the delay in a response, these past few days have been rather busy. I'll take a look as soon as I am able, but the issue already appears to be something non-obvious. -- Void  Whispers 19:42, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Ugh. It's an issue with the parser. Or just that nested infoboxes are poorly designed to begin with. The thing is, the parser is taking html like   Text    and getting rid of the opening  and regurgitating the closing tags. This may be an upstream issue, or it's possible that I can engineer a better method to nest infoboxes. Either case will take longer than I would have hoped. --  Void  Whispers 22:39, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the information. I appreciate any help you can provide. I'm a patient dude, and I have other work I need to look to on another wiki in terms of the MediaWiki:Vector.css that I need to iron out, so feel free to take all the time you need. You're doing me a favor so I'm not in a position to rush you or make demands. Feel free to do whatever is necessary on the wiki to resolve the issue! Thanks!

Help
Could you help me install infoboxes on my forum? I am not certain how to or what the code is to make them show up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WaitingCynicism (talk • contribs) 17:25, 21 June 2018‎ (UTC)
 * Alright, well, so far, it seems that you've added everything you need. In order to set them up, you need to read the documentation here. However, if all of that is over your head, I wouldn't mind helping you setup an infobox or two as long as you tell me what you need. -- Void  Whispers 18:41, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

PageNumbers
Hi Void, thanks for your previous suggestion re the issues I've recently had getting the highlightable page numbers to work. I was wondering if you get time would you have another look into it please? They seem to be very hit and miss, most of the time not working and only when logged out. When logged in they don't show at all for some reason. I have just created a new page - British War Aims - about a political statement given in 1918. I have included all the relevant djvu pages from the index using the required wikitext but the numbers don't appear. They should also be on this page Great Britain at War but has the same issue. The linkable page numbers in square parentheses should be there but they don't show up, and if they do they don't always remain. The behaviour is very odd and makes the Proofread Page extension a little redundant if this part doesn't work. Can you shed some light on the problem. Thanks. 01:07, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
