I'm lost my wiki came out looking like some sort unformated blog.

 * A cool background, a few pages (the more pages the better), and maybe a few blogs, and a few wikians (the more the better.) TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 15:13, July 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * If you mean the standard theme (like on this wiki), you can change that with the Theme Designer (accessible through the Admin Dashboard). If you meant make it look like Wikipedia, you can't (well you can switch to the monobook skin but that pretty much it, and it'll only be for yourself). - Tjcool007 (Talk) 15:24, July 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ohh how do I get the monobook skin Antiedman 15:27, July 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's an option in your preferences. Note that it applies only to you, and on every Wikia wiki. - Tjcool007 (Talk) 15:29, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Go to you preferences, site layouts, then select monobook. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 15:30, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

 * If you are talking about the entire Wiki being in Monobook (Wikipedia-like), you cannot do that. I believe it is against the rules, so you can only set it so you see it that way.  DaRanger  |  Talk to Me  |  What I've Done  16:32, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

I've logged out and this wiki looks exactly the same as it does when logged in. I don't really see what's so Wikipedia-ish about it... If you're talking about the page content, well you can view the source of the page to see how it's done (might need some CSS changes as well). - Tjcool007 (Talk) 16:41, July 26, 2011 (UTC)

Wait are you using Monobook? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  19:35, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hum... I'm not sure but are you talking about the stuff on your main page that is called "Latest activity"? That is because on your main page you have ; just edit the page and remove that trash.
 * There is also an option in your preferences that has something to do with what you see when you use only the server name of your wiki. It's under "misc" and is called "Disable my redirect to Wiki Activity".
