Forum:Default Page

When you create a new page, and use the layout option, It provides you with a default layout. Is there a way to change this layout itself? -- 04:20, September 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sure is. Just edit MediaWiki:Newpagelayout if you're an admin. -- 04:53, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

Choice of several new page layouts
Is it possible to offer a selection of 'standard' new page layouts from the popup by selecting in a bullet list or having a number of new page 'type' buttons on the page ? - BulldozerD11 20:20, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not in the current system. --Uberfuzzy 05:33, September 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank Uberfuzzy,


 * Related Question - Is there a way of having create page button that offers several options then, [as along time ago I started to try to adapt a page created from a template from the Marvel Database Wiki that gave a number of different options (but abandoned it as my understanding of conditional wiki coding was not up to it)]. Is it possible to add a add /create new page button to every page in the main name space ? (as a way of getting multiple page layout options offered to users wishing to add a new page) - BulldozerD11 11:31, September 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * You could try the Vault's method. As you can see, they removed the normal "create article" link from the sidebar and added a row with links to their custom article creation pages. They also made a custom Monaco-toolbox with a link to the article creation page. Their method uses preloaded templates to provide format for new articles. ~ Gardimuer { ʈalk } 14:35, September 21, 2010 (UTC)
