Misfire on talk page - Help needed
What happened here? It seems to have sent the info to never never land. Did I set something up wrong? ⋙–Berean–Hunter—► ((⊕)) 17:00, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Archive counter
I put the counter active at 16 accidentally (for the first time and I did'nt know) and and MiszaBot III archived it to User talk:Ankit Maity/Archive 16(of course it's blank because I moved it to User talk:Ankit Maity/Archive 1) and I set the counter to 2. It went all okay for the next archive as it archived it to 2 and then 3 but today I saw that it archived to Archive 3 again. It was supposed to be in Archive 4. Currently I have the counter parameter disabled. How to solve it and let it again go in the consecutive order?Please do help me.

 * The bot archived to Archive 1 after you set it to <tt>counter=1</tt>, then to #3 after you set it to <tt>counter=3</tt>. Left to itself, it would have kept adding to the same archive until the page size exceeded the maximum (currently <tt>maxarchivesize=256K</tt>).


 * What are you trying to do?
 * Make every save on a new page? Set the maximum size to something tiny. I don't see why you'd want that though.
 * Make a separate archive for every month? Use <tt>| archive = User talk:Ankit Maity/Archives/%(year)d/%(monthname)s</tt>.

 * Oh, I understand. I am so foolish. I thought MiszaBot III goes to a new archive every time it saves and the maxarchivesize meant the maximum info an archive could hold.-- Ankit Maity  Talk •  contribs 05:23, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

MiszaBot III Question
What is the reason why we have to ask for a key to not have pages be the sub page of the page being archived, and what would that do for us? I don't need a key, I was just wondering.  JoeGazz  ▲ 00:56, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Probably to prevent vandals from instructing the bot to do something silly, like setting it to archive a high-traffic talk page to User talk:Jimbo Wales or something. – xeno <sup style="color:black;">talk 14:00, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Odd archive
How is the bot trying to archive page header content? Gimmetoo (talk) 13:17, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe you've already figured it out; the archiving code was broken in this edit. – xeno <sup style="color:black;">talk 13:55, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
