Forum:Navigation box question.

Know how most wikias have nav boxes that have "v · e · d" on them? I need to know how to get it to say that. Right now mine say "Template:Weapons · e · Template talk:Weapons" I need to know how to shorten it.. I know it's a ridiculous question, but I've looked everywhere and can't find an answer. Any help is appreciated -- Ash Crimson 13:00, March 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've fixed this for you. The problem was that v and d were using this template that really achieved nothing. :) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  13:32, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

One more quick question. Do the changes take a little while to take effect? I see it change back and forth sometimes - Ash Crimson 14:03, March 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Any time. :) Yes, the occurrence you described sometimes happens - it's related to cache. You can clear it (CTRL-F5 for IE, FF and Chrome), or you can wait and it'll show everywhere in a few hours. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  14:14, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know =] - Ash Crimson 14:53, March 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I think it would cache on Wikia's end not yours. The best way to speed that up is to append &action=purge to the url ( example: http://community.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum%3ANavigation_box_question.&action=purge ) so that you can purge the site's copy and hopefully it will then recognize the template has changed and will change with it. But you don't need to deal with that, the job queue will do it automatically when given time. Joey (talk) 20:46, March 14, 2010 (UTC)
