A question: How do you redirect a page to an anchor? I've been struggling to redirect Fully-Forge to an anchor on the Hell Forge page.                  CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]

Try
[[Hell Forge#Anchor|whatever]]

Using the <span style="color:;"> tag, you can color the link, and it will link as normal. --DARKHAVANS < talkcontrib > 20:21, 24 March 2008 (UTC)


On your item template, you forgot to add the values for "Uncrafted" at the bottom.                  CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]


QUESTION FROM DRAGONMAN7 CAN U UPDATE MY WIKI PAGE PLZ :)



With the creature pictures, just take them from FSG.

If we were to put all those items and put them on the same page, that would require averaging the craftable items, and lots of coding. Of course, I'd take the time to do it though. However, the best items for a certain level can be found using this.                  CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]

Portals

Thanks for letting me know about that article. I hadn't found it as I did a search for portals not mysterious portal, which is of course why it's a good idea to create redirects when you make a new article. :p I've been discussing with others about the best order and they would like by level, which you have, but I think alphabetically by location is also very important, so I think there should be both. Your table is very very hard to edit, so I'm going to play with my article for now till its organised then it can be transferred later. Cheers --Silverwand Chat 14:30, 30 April 2008 (BST)

ItemBoxFS

Hello,

I have created an ItemBoxFS template that clones your ItemBox template but puts the fallensword.com IP and folder directly into the template. I believe this is wiser because if, for any reason, fallensword changes its IP (change of provider?) or its icons' folder location, it would be a nightmare to reflect the change on every item page in the wiki. You can see on the Leikmar Shield page that it works ok. Of course, we do remain vulnerable to a numbering change but I would hate to have to import the icons themselves into the wiki... Let me know what you think.

Hehe, saw what I did with my inventory, eh?                  CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]


Thanks for what you've done. =)                  CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]


Adding Pages and Templates

How do you add a template? And how do you make the template (like the functions so all you have to do is copy a simpler code than the real one?


Thanks!

Templates Cont'd

OK but how do you make a page?

For specific template help, have at look at the following page:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Template
Otherwise, for the generic creation of a page, enters it's name in the search box and the result page
will give you a link you can click too create the page (if no page exists yet with that name).
For a template page, the name should be of the form "Template:my_template_name"

Is there a way to make the "Progress to Next Level" bar update automatically or do you have to update it every time you train?  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]

You have to update it yourself. That is why I do not have a bar for that on my user page.

OK but I think I'm gonna make one  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]

Q About Discussion

I realize when you write something in a discussion the font is green. Is there a way to make the font a different color, say red, on every discussion post without typing the code every time? Thanks!  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]

I have to write the color codes every time.

Oh, well that must get annoying, I think I might try it though : )  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]

Side to Side

How do you make two sections side by side?</span>  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]

You make a table with two columns and put each section in one of the columns.

Maps

Is there any special way to get a map into 100 squares, all separate images?  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]

To see how the maps are put together, either look at the code used on one of the Area pages or read the instructions at Category:Needs Map. You are right in guessing that they are all separate images.
 Belgrave, Moderator / Sysop  Talk  Message PM 
I read that, I'm wodnering how you get it into those separate images. The FSGuide maps are just one image and the games' are also one.  Greggacam [Talk Message PM Contributions]
The maps on fallenswordguide AND the game are also made up of the individual images except there is no spacing between the images in the game. I get my maps by going to the game's map page (while I am in an area) and copying the source. I then replace all the html code between the image urls with | and change it all to wiki format.
 Belgrave, Moderator / Sysop  Talk  Message PM 
If you haven't noticed already, the map is listed in a table format. What happens is, cell padding and such makes space around each cell, which is the white space you see around each image.
                 CHiNback - [ Talk - Message - PM ]
Actually, it's cellspacing="1" which I use. If we used cellpadding="1" instead, you'd end up with 2px between each image and that extra space ends up not looking as nice.
