Just trying out the syntax for Wikidot. Anything that I could add?


When you add a character you get a template like this which you fill in:

[!-- Game --]No game
====
[!-- Character type/System --]Freeform
====
[!-- Given Name --]Test
====
[!-- Family Name --]McTesty
====
[!-- Aliases --]None
====
[!-- Age --]Unknown
====
[!-- Gender --]Male
====
[!-- Species --]Human
====
[!-- Allegiance --]None
====
[!-- Appearance --]
====
[!-- Background --]
====
[!-- Abilities --]
====
[!-- Picture --]No_picture
====
[!-- Custom tabs --]
...and the result comes out like this (http://encounters.wikidot.com/characters:1). Adding games is similar (http://encounters.wikidot.com/games:2). There are automatically updated lists which display info like GM, system and recruitment status for a game for example.


And no, I can't add that kind of autoformatting to the BleachITP wiki without being an admin. :smalltongue:

It looks good so far. My only complaint is that it's hard to find the location of the ongoing games. Does it link to them on the game's page if you add a URL? I couldn't find a way to get to The First Throne (unless that's just a testing page...).

I couldn't find a way to get to The First Throne (unless that's just a testing page...).Yeah, that's a test page. Click Discuss at the bottom of the page to get to the game thread, which will be created if it doesn't exist (it has a link back to the wiki page at the top).

Would it be cool to post some 4e homebrew I've got? Or is the site still in the hatching process :smallsmile:?

I'd appreciate that, so I can be sure everything works.

Whether or not it's in the hatching process... that depends. :smalltongue:
