Welcome to "My Favourite Books" @ PBwiki! A Learning 2.0 Test Wiki.

 

 

 

 

 

 

For those of us absolute beginners - I found that creating a new page was easy, but linking it to the sidebar was difficult. I just couldn't get the page to post. I ended up checking out the Wiki Information : Recent Changes (bottom of the page - in the centre); copying my page (Control & c); clicking on the sidebar; selecting Edit Page and then pasting my own page link in there (Control & v). Highlight title, click Link at top of page, click on OK, then save. That worked.Good Luck

 

Some more help with the Sidebar: Here's an easier trick for adding your page to the sidebar.

 

  1. Click on "Sidebar" at the top of the sidebar.
  2. Then click the "Edit page" button. Type in your page title in the list, highlight it (left-click, hold the button and drag to completely highlight the entire title).
  3. Then click "Link" in the editing toolbar.
  4. Choose "WikiPage" from the dropdown menu named "Link Type".
  5. In the next dropdown menu titled "Link to Wiki Page", click on it to see the choices and just find your page name in that list. Choose it by clicking on it .
  6. Click "OK".
  7. Save the page and then go back to the home page to see that your page now shows in the Sidebar.
  8. If the page does not appear, please refrain from excessive swearing or violence against your computer and try #1 again.

Hello, I've changed the "skin" of this wiki. I just wanted to try it out, hope that is ok. Also, I've created a page and I can get to it from clicking on the link at the bottom under "recently updated", but I don't see my page appearing on the side bar? Have I missed something?

Okay...I added step #8 at the bottom of the page. It's late Sunday of a very busy weekend and it seemed like a good idea at the time.

I didn't know what I was doing. I wanted to know what snakeskin was, now I know.

I was thinking of changing the colors in the sidebar and make it more eye catching. I'm going to go ahead and do it. I will change it back next week if people don't like it!
