Sidebar not displaying

[Evan Markowitz]

Tested in Chrome Version 33.0.1736.2 dev-m, sidebar menu items not properly displaying

This is an old known bug with Chrome and WebKit / our version of MediaWiki: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/chromium-discuss/RVOnAiHORUk

Then.... would the solution be to upgrade MW?

[Riot]

Ultimately yes, but we've modified our mediawiki somewhat from the stock configuration, and we inject user registrations into it directly as part of our registration process - so it's cross-linked to many other scripts throughout the system. An upgrade would require the rewrite of various other legacy systems, and reverse-engineering the account creation system on the later mediawiki versions to fit. It's not a high priority at the moment.

Maybe a fix to a very old issue but this has been bugging me for a while and so I did the deed. Tested on both Chrome and Firefox by me and Ted.
