VW4 Prefix Editor Viewing Source To edit a prefix, locate the desired prefix in the wiki Admin Panel on the Structures > Prefix Manager page, and click the Edit icon next to the name of the prefix that you want to change. Whether you are editing an existing area or creating a new one, many of the options will be the same. [h=3]Title[/h] The title of the prefix is the text that will be applied to the beginning of any article that uses the prefix. For example, a prefix with the title "Fish" used on an article named "Tuna" will affect the URL of "Tuna" like so: [i]Fish:Tuna[/i]. [template]Warning Box|Warning|Remember that a single prefix can be used by many articles at the same time and that it is used as a component for the URLs of those articles. Modifying the title of a prefix will automatically affect the URLs every article that uses that prefix. Doing so may break existing links to those articles. Changing a prefix's title is not recommend unless absolutely necessary.[/template] [h=3]BB-Code Example Usage[/h] This shows an example of how users will link to articles that have this prefix. For example: [code][wiki]Fish:Tuna[/wiki][/code] You can double-click the example text to create a custom BB-Code for the prefix. The custom BB-Code will act as a shorthand to link to articles with the prefix without specifying the prefix directly. Using a custom BB-Code called FISH, the same example becomes: [code][fish]Tuna[/fish][/code] Even if you define a custom tag, users can still use the generic WIKI tag like the first example. [template]Warning Box|Warning|If you change the custom BB-Code Tag Name from one custom tag to another, the old custom tag will no longer function as a wiki link. Doing so will break existing links using the old custom format.[/template] [template]Notes Box|The default wiki link tag, used in the previous examples, is WIKI. However, adminstrators can rename this tag in Settings > Wiki Links.[/template] 1,958 characters
