Summary

On this page we will go over how to create a new quest page, and as example, we will be creating the following page:

Konopatiy: Question to Kamlanty

But to save time, we will be copying coding template from this page:

Kamlanty: Evil Bones by the Lighthouse

Finally, we will replace the data.

Step 1: Log In

First you must login in order to make new pages or any changes.

Click "log in" on the top right, and enter your account details.

Step 2: Creating New Page

As an example, we will create the "Konopatiy:Question to Kamlanty" quest page.

In the search box, type "Konopatiy: Question to Kamlanty", and do a search for that page. Since no page exists, search results will show "No page title matches", and will offer for you to create this page.


New Blank Page

So first we need to know what info we want to put on that page. Now we will just leave this page alone, and move on to the next step. We won't be saving anything yet. We just wanted to show how new pages are created.

If you click "save", the page will NOT be created if it is blank.

We will add content in the next steps.

Copy Coding From Another Quest

To make new pages quickly and efficiently, we will copy the coding of a previously created page.

Go to the Quest list, and open the page for Kamlanty: Evil Bones by the Lighthouse.

Or just click here:

Kamlanty: Evil Bones by the Lighthouse

Then click the "Edit" button on the top of that page.


Next, copy the coding on the next page, and paste it on to the new page you want.

Replace Data

Since we copied the coding from previously created page, the actual info on the page is not correct and needs to be changed.

Save New Image Screenshots on Your Computer

You will most likely have to take new images of the quest pages.

We recommend a popular screenshot application called Lightshot for ease and quickness in making screenshots.

Visit their website to download the latest version for your computer:

http://app.prntscr.com/

Alternatively, you can read this page on how to make screenshots with Paint program (this program comes pre-installed on most systems).

How_to_Take_Screenshots

Upload Screenshots

Under the Toolbox on the right side of the wiki, you can click "Upload file" to upload the screenshot.

Then on the next page, click "Choose file" to find the screenshot you saved earlier on your computer.

Show Uploaded Screenshot on Page

The next step is to have the uploaded screenshot appear on the page you are working on.

Here are some examples of the image coding that needs to be saved onto the page:

[[File:wizkam-evilbones.jpg|300px|link=]]
  • "wizkam-evilbones.jpg" is the file name of the image uploaded in previous step.
  • the 300px resizes the image
  • "link=" removes http reference on the image.
  • note that each image code element is separated by "|".
[[File:wizkam-angrybon.jpg|left|500px|link=]]
  • "wizkam-angrybon.jpg" is the file name of the image uploaded in previous step.
  • "left" aligns the image to the left side of page
  • the 500px resizes the image
  • "link=" removes http reference on the image.
  • note that each image code element is separated by "|".
[[File:Wizkam-evilbones-com.jpg‎|link=]]
  • "Wizkam-evilbones-com.jpg" is the file name of the image uploaded in previous step.
  • "link=" removes http reference on the image.
  • note that each image code element is separated by "|".


Step 3: Record Page on Quest List

Once you are finished editing the new quest page, the final step is to list it on the list of quests page:

Quests

Under "Daily Quests" or "One-Time Quests", quests are listed first by location, and then by NPC name.

Click "Edit" either on top, or next to the section you need to add (see screenshot on the right).

Then add the new page in the appropriate section.

In this example, we have been discussing the "Konopatiy: Question to Kamlanty", so it would be listed under:

One-Time Quests --> Middle Lands Quests --> Konopathy

And to list it, simply use the following formatting:

[[Konopatiy: Question to Kamlanty]]
  • Note: Adding 2x brackets around title will automatically add link to the page.
