Forum:How do you add to a list or table?

This wikia is much harder to edit than wikipaedia; I don't know why it has to be so much more difficult. I am trying to update the list of Dream Mists. There is a DM at (38,17) which is not on the list at the wiki. I'm trying to add it to the table, but when I click 'edit' the table does not show up like on wikipaedia. Clicking on the little green puzzle pieces doesn't make the table show up, and if I switch to the source code, it just says ==List of dream mists==. If I just type the new DM and location, this just shows up as text way down at the bottom of the page.


 * That's the Wikia RTE, which is known to have many problems associated with it. If you create an account, you can disable the RTE in your preferences under the "editing" tab by unchecking "Enable Rich Text Editor".

OK, I just created an account, now I just get what looks like the source code. It has the "==List of dream mists==" written there, but I don't get how to add the new DM to the list. -gungSunLung


 * Wikia's tables work just like Wikipedia's tables -  is a new row,   is a new cell, etc. Can you link to the page in question?

Maybe I'm just daft, but I don't see anything like that--there's no actual table there, just "==List of dream mists==". Here's the link: http://waroflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Dream_Mist  I just want to add a line for DM (38,17). Thanks for helping, by the way.


 * The table on the page is being constructed from DPL (dynamic page list). It's listing pages from a certain category, and including certain details from those pages. From what I can see, you'll need to create a new page for the "Dream mist" you're talking about, after the manner of the pages that are listed in this category "Dream mists". :) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  23:13, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
