2024-02-22 Major Fail when Upgrading the Wiki

Yep, it's now available by default here https://hazeron.com/wiki/index.php/Special:RenameUser

Thanks! Can confirm that uploading new versions of images works

Sidenote, as Dean said, the wiki database isn't synchronized with the images directory, so any image that was updated after the date of the backup isn't the same as what the wiki says, and this includes the resolution of the image, so it renders the new image (cuz it's present in the files) at the old image's resolution and causes distortion. Can see this in action if you visit this page, look at the file size + resolution the wiki gives you, and then view the original image, and you'll notice it's different https://hazeron.com/wiki/index.php/File:...wntown.png

Files that were initially uploaded after the backup are completely gone, but we assume their images still exist in the backend directory, we just can't access them
It's not a huge deal, it's pretty easy to just... reupload the broken images and correct the database entry, but for the missing ones, it would be nice to get a copy of the images folder, so we can extract and re-upload things as needed

By the way, if I could also be added to the interface-administrators group, it would be greatly appreciated! Would make it a lot easier to make some edits without having to wait for Dean, although I understand if you just trust him
What even
