Help editing TDN

by Orion Elenzil · in Torque Developer Network · 09/19/2006 (1:34 pm) · 3 replies

On this TDN page under "GuiArrayCtrl",
tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/GUI/Profiles/ControlList

i'd really like to add a link to this page as a sort of "see also":
www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=11247

but whenever i include the URL, the entire section chokes and turns into just "{{{1}}}".

but then, i find working w/ the TDN wiki pretty hard in general.

Yeah, I made that page a while back and there were issues with certain types of URLs.

See this thread from before.

I haven't heard anything new on it lately, so I'd continue to just avoid using URLs that involve search/retrieval.

Ah yes,
that's the exact same thing i ran into.
thanks.

since this thread is a dupe anyway,
maybe we could side-track it into a discussion of how you think we should approach including community-contributed resources on that page ?

it seems like:

* either put the resource controls inline right with the stock controls, but mark them as "Resource" in some way.
this is nice 'cause it seems like the best experience for the person who's just looking for the right control for the job.

* or list them seperately, either at the bottom of this page or on a separate page.

Good idea...I like the idea of including them inline, and perhaps in the section title you could include something after the name, like "(custom control)" or something similar.
