EQ2Emu Wiki

Post by Cynnar » Wed May 17, 2017 8:10 pm

It's time to start looking at a better layout for our Wiki starting with the main page. As of right now the plan is to add to the existing page, not remove anything. With that in mind I think that the page could use a more in depth look at each section without making the main page look like a link page.

Everyone chime in, but Jab you created the main page so I'm asking this question to you on a code basis as well as looks.

What do you think if the sections and it's icons were underneath each other instead of side-by-side? This leaves room beside the sections to add the contents of the section. In that area maybe it's possible to put one of the subsections on a textbox and lost some of the things in that subsection? For example in the general section there is a textbox for Tutorials. That box then has a few links and short description of a few things listed on the tutorials page with a final link that opens the tutorials page. Then add a few more textboxess with a final link to open up the general section.

Maybe that would show what each section, and some subsections will contain and people will have a better idea where to look for answers.

Possible Layout Ideas

Post by Cynnar » Wed May 17, 2017 8:11 pm

I was looking at the Guild Wars Wiki and thought that could be usable. Instead of featured article we could have our current layout put there. Then put a description of what is under that section instead of the links to the subsections. Leave the textboxess to hold the links and short description.
