| + | [[Basics: adding and editing pages and links]] |
| − | | |
| − | To add a new page/entry (they're pretty much interchangeable):
| |
| − | | |
| − | <ol><li>You must register - there's a link at the top right of the page at [http://www.bootstrapaustin.org/wiki/ http://www.bootstrapaustin.org/wiki/] that says "create an account or log in" - click it, create an account (or log in if you already have an account). </li>
| |
| − | <li>Please set up YOUR page - there are no fields to fill in, just whatever you want people to know about you. For instance, here's my page:
| |
| − | [[User:Athought]] (Steven List) | |
| − | and here's Kevin's | |
| − | [[User:Kkoym ]]</li>
| |
| − | <li>Once you've registered, you can create links and entries/pages.
| |
| − | <ol><li>To create a new page, first you add an entry on an existing page of the form<br />
| |
| − | [ [ Steve Harper presents The 8 Minute Ripple ] ] (that's squarebracketsquarebracket with no spaces between the brackets)<br />
| |
| − | the double-brackets says "link within the Wiki"</li>
| |
| − | <li>After saving this page with the reference to the new page, click on that link and it will take you to the edit page for the new page you're creating - now you can add content to that entry.</li>
| |
| − | <li>To create a link to a page outside of the Wiki, it has the form<br />
| |
| − | [URL text]<br />
| |
| − | Where the URL is the URL and the text is the stuff you want to be clickable.
| |
| − | <br /><br />
| |
| − | The URL can be either a page address (http://www.whatever.com) or an email address (mailto:steven@backoftheroom.com). The Wiki is smart enough to recognize both. So if I wanted a link to send me email, it would look like this:<br />
| |
| − | [ mailto:steven@backoftheroom.com Email Steven List ]<br /><br />
| |
| − | | |
| − | And if I wanted a link to take you to my web site it would look like this:<br />
| |
| − | [ http://www.backoftheroom.com Visit BackOfTheRoom! ]<br /><br /><em>Notice that the Wiki is smart enough to recognize links in this text!</em></li></ol></li></ol>
| |
| − | Since the Wiki is, by nature, openly collaborative, you can add anything you want anywhere you want. Kevin and I will monitor the Wiki and occasionally rearrange things if necessary.

| |
| − | For instance, Steve Harper (who deserves credit for both taking action and figuring out HOW to work with the Wiki) created an entry on the Current Events page. I changed it to a link to another entry, and moved most of the info to the other entry. Check it out here:<br />
