Using Templates
Short introduction blurb
This page will familiarise you with the templates available for creating pages easier and with more consistency.
Check out some Player, Pets, and Projects pages to see the templates in action, and get a sense for how others are formatting content. There is no wrong way, and someone else can come along and edit it to help out too. Nothing is permanent in Bookstack.
Player
The player template is more of a suggestion once you get below the player photo, fact, and description. Feel free to customise it to fit you.
Player skins can be generated with NameMC for use with the player pages.
Next Steps
OLD CONTENT FROM MEDIAWIKI
I have made templates to make starting new pages easy and to maintain consistent formatting across pages. Take a look at the headings below for the types of templates on the Wiki and how to use them. The linked Template pages have a table with information about the variables, for the most part you won't need to look at this as the visual editor has all the details you will need when adding the template to a page.
To add a template to a page, while in edit mode click on Insert, and then Template. Put the name of the template (the link) into the bar and it will auto-complete if the template exists. From there, fill out the details in the pop up window. Again, a reminder, the details don't need to be perfect right away, you can add generic stuff and then revise later.
Servers
The server template can be found here: ServerPage. Add it to the very beginning of a page, it creates the image and info box on the right side of the screen as well as adding a small description of the server to start the page.
There is also another template that goes at the bottom of server pages that provides navigation links to the previous and next server, this template is the ServerNavigation template. Be sure to include this if you are making server pages.
Pets
The pet template can be found here: Pet.
Players
The player template can be found here: Player. Add it to the very beginning of a page, it creates the image and info box on the right side of the screen as well as adding a small description of the player to start the page.
Head to NameMC to get a rendering of your skin for your page. Right-click on the player skin and save as an image. Be sure to name it and upload it, that way you can easily replace the image with your new skin if you change it.
Projects
The project template can be found here: Project. Add it to the very beginning of a page, it creates the image and info box on the right side of the screen.
When copying map links, get the view you want and then give it a second or two to update the URL to the correct coordinates.
