Hey guys so i want to know how to add the title area like this wiki : http://dementhium.wikia.com/wiki/Dementhium_Wiki where it has a logo then a comment then statistics. How do i do this?
Any help?
- Just look at the pages source (click the edit button) and you see this code at the top of the page above the main sections:
<p style="text-align: center;">[[File:Logo-500.png]]</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:100%">The wiki devoted to '''''[http://www.dementhium.com Dementhium]''''' that '''anyone can edit'''.</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%">{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} Articles since 20th of August, 2011</span></p>
- Copy the above code (wiki markup/html) to your wikis main page and Update it to suit your wiki:-
- Replace [[File:Logo-500.png]] with a file for your wikis logo (preferably created at the right size or you need to set the size to say 500px)
- Change the external link [http://www.dementhium.com Dementhium] to point to the web site associated with your wikis subject (i.e game or show) instead & display its name. (or just put plan text with the wikis subject area if not conected with one particular 'site' based subject
- change the articles since date to suite your wiki's start date. (the number of pages updates regularly itself using the 'magicword' {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} to get the info from the database.
- Save it (after checking it looks OK using preview - if not try updating it again)
- Note: the standard default main page for a new Wiki used to contain something similar by default just without the big logo - The rest of the pages layout is set by other code on the page to create columns and blocks of text & often wikis call templates that are on sub pages with the content of each section/block stored there (this is to allow updating without changing the main page constantly). As you have not linked your wiki we can only reply in general terms.
