RE: Image Update Request
Hey there,
On my end the image seems to be fine, or at least the image you wish to upload so I don't really see much problem on my end, unless I'm misunderstanding what you are asking, but it seems the image did successfully update. :) Connall Project Zomboid Wiki Manager 01:50, 8 August 2015 (BST)
Hey Connall,
I notice that this afternoon. Not quite sure what was going on last night as it kept using the old image every time I refreshed. Thanks for looking into it and, er, apologies for wasting your time there xD.
Trouble with wiki
Hey, Malony. I am new to this stuff, so would it be possible to give me a quick run-down on how to link to other pages while writing?
Hey OddFly!
Good thing I saw this, I was about to head off for the night. To Link to another page, you need to place the exact name of the page in Brackets. For instance:
[[Burger]]
Produces Burger
If you wanted to enter a link but give it a different name, you would need to use a Vertical Bar (|) in the link to change its name, for example:
[[Burger|Information on Burgers]]
Produces Information on Burgers while linking to the correct page.
If you wanted to enter a link to a category, its a slightly different format as you need to put a colon before the link, for example:
[[:Category:Food]]
Produces Category:Food while linking to the correct page.
The reason for the extra colon is that if it was linked directly to Category the wiki doesnt understand the coding involved so a extra ":" at the beginning is required.
Hope that helps! If you've got any other questions, feel free to drop a message and I'll try to get back to you.
