Phils quick, oops i cocked up my forum guide :-)

Copy this code into any new page on your wiki

||~ #||~ page title  ||~ Page name (url)||~ Required Inserted Module||
||1||forum Categories|| [[[Forum:start ]]]||@@[[module ForumStart]]@@||
||2||forum Category||[[[forum:category]]]||@@[[module ForumCategory]]@@||
||3||Forum Thread||[[[forum:thread]]]||@@[[module ForumThread]]@@||
||4||New Forum Thread||[[[forum:new-thread]]]||@@[[module ForumNewThread]]@@||
||5||Recent Forum Posts||[[[forum:recent-posts]]]||@@[[module RecentPosts]]@@||

You will then have a table like this below.

Look in the page name colom. If any pages are missing they will show up as a different colour (theme dependant)

  • Click on the offending link.
  • This will prompt you to create a new page
  • Create the new page, inserting the correct module,
  • Change the page title to that in the forst colom of the table
# page title Page name (url) Required Inserted Module
1 forum Categories start [[module ForumStart]]
2 forum Category category [[module ForumCategory]]
3 Forum Thread thread [[module ForumThread]]
4 New Forum Thread new-thread [[module ForumNewThread]]
5 Recent Forum Posts recent-posts [[module RecentPosts]]

And now that i have written the above I'm wondering if i can make it almost automatic fixing…. thinking……… . can we do something with liust pages?:-)
