put the subdomain only in the first section, you do not need .miraheze.org in there
ie, alienplanetthing without any extra, which if approved will become alienplanetthing.miraheze.org automatically
I'm not sure what is confusing, that was the aspect of your screenshot that had an issue
you need the database name to be the url of your wiki, the .miraheze.org part will be there automatically and you don't put it in
subdomain is unique name of your wiki in URL
example:
for meta.miraheze.org subdomain is meta and nothing else
I successfully created my wiki, and now I cannot create a page, how do I do that?
in URL after /wiki/ type title of page you want to create then hit Enter
example
...miraheze.org/wiki/Example
skin Cosmos has "create article" button tho
then don't ping ...
I check server whenever I can, same w/ the rest folks, we are volunteers
easiest way to create infobox from scratch is enable PortableInfobox extension and open .../wiki/Special:InfoboxBuilder page, which will help to create simple infobox
infoboxes must have Template: prefix
how to enable PortableInfobox?
see your admin menu, there must be "Manage this wiki's extensions" link, PortableInfobox in Parser hooks tab
Where is my admin menu?
last part of sidebar on the left
oh...
It's taking a very long time for it to load special infobox builder, what should I do?
refresh the page
it happens sometimes
I did but it does not work
it can be coded manually
check pinned messages in #general for guides
what browser are you using?
uhhh... Windows computer?
I put an infobox on the page and it won't show
browser is a program you use to surf internet ...
firefox, chrome, etc
firefox
yeah...
alright
on article, where you gonna use infobox, have you filled values?
like
...|name = Peter |age = 19 |...
yeah
what's your wiki?

How do you put in a divider in a infobox
Like where the red circle is at
<header>...</header>
what's that?
code for "divider" you just asked about ...
it's a (smaller) header for infobox
text goes instead of ...
At least can you help me get the infobox to show up?
I can't unless you give me permission to see your wiki, or make it temporarily public (easier if other members will try to help, as I'm going to sleep soon)
How do I do that?
make wiki public?
in admin menu first link called "core settings", just uncheck the box of "Private"
you can now check the wiki
How do I make more databoxes appear? Like I did it for the other page and now it isn't showing me the info again
Can any of you please help with this?
The wiki is private
We cannot help if we cannot see anything
Please make it public for now
You can enter it now
It's late in my timezone but maybe someone else can help. Otherwise I can take a look tomorrow
@chilly cobalt @round hazel Can any of you help
uhh... The info isn't showing up again, like in last time
Can you at least fix it for me please?
At least explain more on the data perimeters?
How do I do the parameters though?
