[edit] How to make a page.

1. To create a page, search for the name of the page you want to make in the search box above to the right. Caps do matter. The king of Spain does NOT equal The King of Spain.

2. if the page does not already exist, click the red "Create this page" link. Start typing.


[edit] How to edit a page that is already made

To edit a page, look for the edit tab just under the blue banner at the top of this site. If it is not there, the author either does not let anyone edit (which you can do if you are an author) or requires a logged in member to do so (in order to prevent vandalism).


[edit] Basic Typing

Typing regularly will make the text look like the majority of the text here.

[edit] creating boxed text of picture

To create a little box around a certain phrase or picture, hit return and space once. It will look like this:

Space was hit and a box appeared, ya!

[edit] creating an internal link

there are tabs above the text box that help you with things like this, but just so you know, by inserting two brackets (2 [ and 2 ] ) on either side of a word of phrase, it will make a link (and a page if that page does not exist, it will let you know if it exists by making it blue - red means its not made yet) to the word or phrase you selected. Be careful of caps. To make the link different than the text, but the page title first then seperate it with a | and put the text you want to show as the link text.

[edit] creating an external link

to create a link that leaves this website, just put 1 bracket on either side.


[edit] inserting a picture

you cannot upload to dukakisbentsen.com. You can upload to flickr. to insert a picture, just put the location of the pic.

example: http:....yo.com/toy.png

[edit] inserting a video

insert videos from youtube type

EmbedVideo received the bad id "the last numbers of the address after = and before & in the address." for the service "youtube".

all on one line with no spaces.
