1st Step: Creating the Page

at the top of your browser you should see your address bar, where the url is for this page. you should see a url like "http://rift.zam.com/wiki/How_to_Create_Your_own_Guild_Page_(Rift)" replace the part after "/wiki/ with a name like these examples:

  • http://rift.zam.com/wiki/Squirrel Squasher (Rift Guild)
  • http://rift.zam.com/wiki/Bugs n Mud (Rift Guild)
Remember to keep the "(Rift Guild)" part at the end of the link, this makes sure the page doesnt disappear in the ZAM universe. Make sure the Name of the Guild is spelled correctly.
Now press enter to load the page. If the page exists already the article will appear. If not you will see a message similar to this below.

Click the link "Click Here" or the "Edit" link to open up the edit view. You should now see a big white box, this is where you write or edit all content on the article. You have now created the page.

2nd Step: Organising It

Add the code {{rift|cat=Guilds (Rift)|catdesc=Guilds}} to the page to make it appear in the correct category.

You can also categorise it into the shard your guild belongs to by Typing [[Category:##### (Rift Shard)]] ''Replace ##### with the name of your shard. Shard list can be found at Category:Shards

At this point go to the bottom of the page and click "Save". Dont want you losing your work dont we?

At the top of the page you can see the menu with View, Edit, History e.t.c you can click "Media"

  • Click "Add Image" this will bring up a bix for you to select a file to upload.
  • The next page is the zam Image Editor. At this page you can resize you image. (drag the blue corner) or crop the image,(drag the little green boxes at the image corners). Make sure the image isnt larger than the green dotted line box.
  • Click "Commit Upload"
  • Wait for an admin to review your screenshot

4th Step: Adding Extra Content

  • Return to the edit view by clicking "Edit" in the menu above the article header.
Some code on this page can be confusing, if you want to add custom text or layouts you can ask in the #Wikibase IRC channel, the Wikibase forum section, or recruit someone into the guild who knows how to do fancy stuff in wikis :)
