wdlite v26.10.18 0 ▲ rtnF 3 hours ago · Tech · hide · 0 comments There’s a good reason why I included the phrase “thank goodness...” in that post.I built wdlite two years ago. Yet breaking changes could happen at any point, and sooner or later, something was bound to stop working.As of 10 October 2026, the app was still working as expected. However, when I tried it again last night, on 17 October, I finally encountered a problem.Well, it wasn’t entirely broken. It still worked on desktop, but not on mobile.After some investigation, I discovered that the Wikidata API was returning different HTML output depending on whether the request came from a desktop or mobile device.From desktop…From mobile. Notice the “wbui2025”.On mobile, Wikidata serves its mobile view, which includes new, mobile-specific CSS classes such as wbui2025. My old wdlite implementation didn’t know how to handle these classes, so the app failed to process the page correctly.The fix was to update wdlite to account for this special case and handle the new CSS classes… No comments yet.
