ATTN: GrAnd -- HELP!!!

GrAnd? I tried to add a new image sample page for high-speed photography at the Wikia, but I can't get the link to show up right on the main page. All the others are prefixed with Samples: (name of page). But when I do that it gets listed as "Samples: (name of new page). The others just show the name of the page. No "Samples: " prefix.

Can you help in how you did that?

And acseven, it might be nice to include a Wikia HELP! category here. It's hard to get someone's attention on the Wikia at times. The place is so convoluted and huge, it's never clear where to ask for help or post things at times.

btw, there's 2 other drop photos up there other than those posted here in the thread about this, in case anyone wants to see a couple other examples.

You have to use vertical bar (|) and then the title of a link if you want to change it. For example, in your case:

[[Samples: High-Speed Shutter & Flash-Sync|High-Speed Shutter & Flash-Sync]]


Here is the basics of wiki syntax. Tutorial.

Sorry for bothering you. In my haste I failed to notice all the shorter sample pages had their tags doubled (first part|second part).  I thought that beginning "Samples: " was doing something weird the way it was disappearing on me. (and come to think of it, it's still disappeared, I'll look up on why those do that, thanks for the links again).

Sorry for asking such a stupid question.  ::)

;D
