Finding information

  • Use the sitemap on the Home page
  • Search from the root category
  • Use the search box at the top or left (when using the Monobook skin) of the page

Creating a user account

Before you can make changes on the wiki, you will need to create a user account.

Editing pages

See Help:How To Edit Pages

Altering the look of the Wiki

Changing the default skin

See also: http://community.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Layout

The default layout, or skin, of the wiki interface is Wikia. If you prefer to use a skin that is similar to the one used on Wikipedia, you change the layout from Wikia to Monobook in your User Preferences.

Click here to temporarily view this page using the Monobook skin.

Disabling tooltips

If you prefer not to view the tooltips that appear when hovering over item links found on patch pages, quest guides and some other pages, add the following code to your personal js page.

var tooltipsOn = false;

Note: After saving, you have to bypass your browser's cache to see the changes. You may have the bypass the cache twice (once for the js page and a second time for any other page you're viewing at the time).

  • Internet Explorer: hold down the Ctrl key and click the Refresh or Reload button, or press Ctrl+F5.
  • Firefox: hold down the Shift key while clicking Reload; alternatively press Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl-Shift-R.
  • Opera users have to clear their caches through Tools→Preferences
  • Konqueror and Safari users can just click the Reload button.
  • Chrome: press Ctrl+F5 or Shift+F5

Changing section colors

You can change the section colors used on the home page and in the relevant templates by using your personal css page. Copy the following code into your personal css page and change the hexadecimal value after each hash (see here for a list of colors and their HEX values.)

.accwikibgc {background: #99b6ec}
.characterbgc {background: #bceca9}
.gameplaybgc {background: #fffaa6}
.newsbgc {background: #a79aec}
.questsbgc {background: #eca9bc}
.itemsbgc {background: #a9deec}
.craftingbgc {background: #ecd8a9}
.worldbgc {background: #ecb7a9}
.lorebgc {background: #b1897e}
.gettingstartedbgc {background: #d7a9ec}
.mediabgc {background: #ffcea6}

Editing other elements (advanced)

If you wish to change the styling of other templates used on the the wiki, copy the contents of the Mediawiki:common.css into your personal css page and edit the declarations there. Please do not edit the Mediawiki page without speaking to an admin first.
