How to Help

Below are some how-tos to help you add or edit content on the wiki. If you think something is missing, feel free to add it by editing the page or adding a new page with additional details.

===How to Edit a Page===
#Editing a page on Wikia is super easy! First, find the page you want to edit using either the top navigation or using the search box.
#Second, click the Edit button, which is located to the right of the page title.
#A WYSIWYG interface will pop up. You can make edits, change formatting, etc. It should remind you a lot of Microsoft Word, but with fewer features. To add images, a slideshow, a video, etc., you can use the buttons on the right hand side under Add Features and Media.
#When you’re done making your edits, type out a quick summary of your edit in the box at the top right. For example, if you updated the stats on a recently changed weapon, type “updated weapon stats on Item Y for Expansion X.”
#Now hit the Preview button. Make sure to read everything carefully and check for spelling/grammatical errors.
#After you’ve checked for errors, click Cancel if you want to make additional changes. Otherwise, click Publish.
#That's all there is to it.
===How to Create a Page===
#If you have admin access, go down to the bottom of the page and click Admin.
#If you don’t have admin rights, append the new page name you’d like to create after /wiki/ in the URL. i.e. www.dragons-prophet.wikia/page. Now hit enter.
#The new page will display and you can click Create or Add to this Page to start adding content to it.
#Next you will need to pick the template you wish to use. Click Add a Page when you’re done.
#Now add all your contents!
#When you’ve finished adding content, make sure to add a category (located on the right hand side). Examples of categories include Weapons, Armor, Crafting, Quests, etc.
#You do not have to add a summary of your edit when you create a page because it will automatically be generated for you.
#When you’re done, click Preview. Look out for spelling and grammatical mistakes.
#After you’ve done that, click Publish!

===How to Add an Image===
#Open the page you want to edit or create.
#lick the image placeholder to Add an Image or click the Photo button on the right hand side (under Add Features and Media).
#Click on the Choose File button. Choose the image you wish to add and then click the Upload button.

#Click the Add Photo button when you’ve finished making your adjustments.
#If you need to remove an image, hover over the image or image placeholder. Then click Remove. (This can only be done in Editing mode.)
===How to Add a Video===
#Open the page you want to edit or create.
#Click the image placeholder to Add a Video or click the Video button on the right hand side (under Add Features and Media).
#In the dialog box that pops up, either add the URL of the video you wish to add or type in a keyword in the search box after Find. Click Add if you used a URL. Click Find if you’re looking for a specific video that has already been added.
#When you’re done, click Close.
#In the next screen, make any adjustments available to your video as you see fit. Then click Add Video.
