Important Wiki Group Information - How To

[anthony]

The prefix video does cover this, though I will also give you the answer: [DLMURL]http://vimeo.com/19369617[/DLMURL]

There are primary prefixes and secondary. Both ur and e are primary prefixes, so only one ever need exist when claiming the content to perform the action, ie. [uc] [e] means its under construction, being just built, and now the author is asking for it to be edited. When you claim it, you reply obviously first, golden rule, then change it to just [e]. If it has secondary prefixes attached, ie. [cn] etc... excluding [e] obviously, then you just leave them last, ie. you would change [uc] [cn] [e] to [e] [cn]. That clearly says to everyone, in combination with your reply on that thread, that you have claimed it for editing, which means DO NOT add, subtract or touch that article in any way, shape or form, until the editor has finished with it, sent it live, and changed it to [c] [cn].

The cn just stays there so we know it needs a citation added... that way we never miss things.

Does that answer it?

Sorry I watched the video twice and still was unsure. Yep it answers it. Thanks!


One other question. I have noticed if I copy and paste or highlight and move text it changes to a smaller sized

font. The problem that I am having is that I am unable to tell which font and size the original text is in to change i

back. In most applications if you highlight text it automatically shows you what the font and size is.

Sorry for the mundane questions, but want to get it right without wasting a bunch of time ;o)

If you watch the editor video, [DLMURL]http://www.ptsdforum.org/c/threads/using-the-editor-features.14336/[/DLMURL] it shows you that the top left button, the little eraser, if you highlight all text, click that, it removes all formatting. So if you select specific text and hit that eraser, then it will remove all and any formatting from that highlighted text only.

You should never try and match the font type or size via the WYSIWYG editor, as its all controlled via CSS automatically.

You will actually see that even if the font changes in your browser, ie. browser bug, when you hit save, it will show correctly, providing you did not physically select a font or size from the WYSIWYG editor.

Added recognition bar info in: [DLMURL]http://www.ptsdforum.org/c/threads/important-wiki-group-information-how-to.14980/#post-188174[/DLMURL]

I apologise now... I deleted a post by Srain and subsequent posts by myself, as I needed to make more room for additions, being "reserved" posts.

I have added a link, via template, at the bottom of the default cheat template, and all existing pages (excluding node hierarchy pages) that links to the public Q&A wiki forum, so readers can question things, suggest, etc, once registered.

Attached prefix cheat sheet to: [DLMURL]http://www.ptsdforum.org/c/threads/important-wiki-group-information-how-to.14980/#post-188173[/DLMURL] to make it easy to remember them upon changing, with examples... as even I already am sick of going back and finding them in the thread to remember what they're supposed to be when performing tasks... but they keep us all from stepping on one another's toes.

Updated appropriate with changes to development: [NOSIDEBAR] will now work in any case, upper, lower, etc. The save page has been fixed if empty, and now won't do a thing until you put something into it. So I have removed and changed content based on the latest software being used now.

 

[anthony]

I have now added a video into [DLMURL]http://www.ptsdforum.org/c/threads/important-wiki-group-information-how-to.14980/#post-188046[/DLMURL] which shows me creating an actual wiki page, ready for editing.

Removed the galleria templates from the information, however; there will still be references to it within videos. Please disregard them within the videos, as images are now managed via direct upload of the wiki page itself.
