Custom Page Layout Posted by commania 18 Aug 2008 00:23 UTC I'm looking for links that tell me how to build a custom page layout in my Wiki. I'd like to put a particular table layout, maybe some divs floating above an image, things like that. Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks!
Posted by Gary Cunningham-Lee 18 Aug 2008 02:54 UTC Basically you can do in a Tikiwiki page whatever you can do in a conventional web page, just with different syntax. If you can do an HTML layout but need info on how to do something similar in a Tiki page, then this is the place for help. If you aren't sure of the basic web layout principles and methods, then maybe it'd be good to check out http://www.w3schools.com/ or other resources. Actually it can be a challenge to get a wiki page to look just how you want it, in my experience, because while a wiki simplifies layout in most ways, it also imposes some restrictions along the way. But these things are best dealt with case by case probably, as they come up. One way to learn is to check the "source" link at many Tikiwiki sites, to see the syntax used for the page. -- Gary
