Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
5 portraits

I would like to contribute, but i'm not sure if my art style is... alike to general Wesnoth's. Is it ok? Should I try? Where to sign?)
I'd start by posting in the "Art Workshop" forum, and then if people think it's mainline-quality, you can move to the...
We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay. While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...

It looks good at the bottom since the page isnt too long; i had no problem finding it.
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list. ------
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize...

Hi there!
Over the past few weeks there has been a massive...
Let me ask a provocative question: Does the project want donations?
By looking at the website, and the game, it seems the answer is "not really". Why?
* There is no Donate/Support link on the main, top, navbar.
* On the main page of the website, nothing is said about donations unless you scroll...

Well, it is pretty obvious on the first website with a colored button that says donate. Yes at the very bottom and under the point contribute. This isn't a scheme or a fancy commercial product, that cry for donations. Which would seem SUS. If you want to support the project, you will find it. For...
Helo,
I had issues while registring via microsoft edge.

Hello, I'm gonna write about the Wesnoth wiki, since I feel that I am the only one who's updating it - the latest topic being "Northern Rebirth" dialogue - while almost all the other users activities last in early 2010s.
Can someone else help updating BfW wiki to the present day?...
Hi, first time posting but I'd been playing Wesnoth for a while years ago, then stopped and resumed now
I noticed there is a misalignment between the campaigns listed on the wiki and the ones that are actually included in the game (1.19.14 on Fedora 42 if that matters)

On https://wiki.wesnoth.org/Special:Export, you can "Add page from category" and "Add pages manually" but I have no idea how that works.

Okay, I tried it again and it worked perfectly, including for exporting multiple pages at a time. No idea what happened, what I was doing wrong or what, but it's working now, so... Okay.
Thanks for your help.
In general I think the website is nice. The layout is visually appealing, people will quickly find what
they want (if it exists), or quickly be able to download the game, possibly also on mobile (I use oldschool desktop computers,...

Adding a link to addons.wesnoth.org for the current version would be a great idea indeed.

I think 100px is ok-ish though; most Avatars should easily fit into that. Then again I have no objection to any other format either; I guess the primary rationale may either have to do with storage...
I hope Wesnoth wiki will tell us different features in Wesnoth content, and how to code them. It would make life easier for future add-on developers and result in more diverse add-ons in the future. I know WML Workshop forum but it has one problem: people must ask questions in order to get...

How do I search the forums for an exact match?
f.e. I try to search "era of heroes" and it returns posts that contain the three words, but not together.

A comment on the Timeline:
I think there is an inconsistency, it states in 12 YW the orcs don't take Wesmere and then attack the humans, then in 20 YW Haldric dies and his son takes his place, and only then does it say that the Legend of Wesmere begins with Kalenz leaving Lintanir with Landar. I...
It appears that, on the 1.17 add-on server, the published add-ons that have been deleted through the in-game interface are still available for download.
While the add-ons are not showing in the in-game add-on manager, they are still listed on the https://addons.wesnoth.org/1.17 web interface.

The 1.17 web interface is no longer getting updated and it stores the add-ons referenced by the download links separately from the actual add-ons server, so even though it was deleted from the add-ons server it's still available there.

Also, check-out my add-on called "DIY Campaign" located on the Add-On server.
It has information in the beginning, displayed in the "story" text. It explains the process.
Which font does the forum use for all the little buttons/icons? I know it's something from google's font server, I'd like to try and figure out if I can install that particular font on my PC.
I want to find all posts with the string, scenario.name--not scenario and name etc.
I tried +"scenario.name" but it splits it up.

I am sure at this point you must be all thinking “why were the forums down for so long?” The thing is, for one reason or another, for the past 9 years there’s only been one person in charge of the forums’ technical platform. And between Wesnoth and other stuff and real life, that person...
