Creating pages for TDN?

by Scott Zarnke · in Torque X 2D · 07/10/2009 (5:41 pm) · 4 replies

This is mostly aimed at Brian Bond, since it seems he has added to the TDN a lot. How would I create pages for it? I have used WiX to create an installer for my game and am thinking about putting together some kind of tutorial for it to share what I've learned, but so far I've only been able to edit the existing page for the Graphics Card Reference.

Thanks in advance.

Just append the name of the page you want to create to the TDN url and it'll take you to a blank page which you can edit then save.

ie http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/your page name here

It'll automagically turn any spaces into underscores for the url, or you can do that yourself.

You should have a quick skim through the TDN meta section which has some information on naming, formatting and creating TDN pages.

Once your page is created you'll need to edit an appropriate existing page to add a link to your new page.

When you're done writing that up, I'll append a tutorial for Inno Setup to the end. That's the one I've been using. It also works quite nicely.

Whoops, guess I was a little late on that one. Sorry...

Edit:
Don't forget once you've created your tutorial, make a link to it in the appropriate tutorials section... ;)
