User blog:ChaoticShadow/New User Manual – Step by Step Tutorial

Hello! This is intended for the newer users of Wikia! (A very simple guide.)

A few things to know:


 * 1) Knowing how to edit.
 * 2) Knowing how to add media (pictures, videos, etc.)
 * 3) Knowing how to add pages
 * 4) Knowing how to use Message Wall and/or Talk Page

Editing
In wikia, there are several different editors, for now, I will be showing the Visual Editors (both the original and the Beta version), as the source is a bit more sophisticated.

Visual Editor
The visual editor is a very simple way to edit pages, since all that is required is typing, and the most common formating tools are within easy access. Just simply type, and there is nothing hard about that!

Visual Editor Beta
This is a fairly new editor and is still in Beta stages, it has the same concept as the original one, but it looks easily accessible (editing to page and vice versa) rather than the preview of the original one.

Editing Tools
There are several buttons on the menu bar, a bold button, italic button, hyperlink button, bulleted list button, ordered list button, indent buttons, text type dropdown, alignment buttons and last but not least, the undo/redo buttons.

Most buttons on the menu are self explanitory, except for the text type dropdown.
