| == Customizing your signature == | | ==Customizing your signature== |
| '''Here's how to create a signature:''' __NOTOC__ | | If you want you can customize your signature by editing your preferences. Visit [[Special:Preferences]], and on the "User Profile" tab enter your custom signature in the "Signature" field. '''Make sure to check "Raw Signatures."''' Below is an example of a custom signature: |
|
| |
|
| === Base creation ===
| | <code><nowiki>[[User:YOUR USERNAME|<span style="color:blue">USERNAME</span>]] [[File:IMAGE YOU WANT|14px]] ([[User talk:YOUR USERNAME|<span style="color:blue">"TALK PAGE" OR "COMM" OR SOMETHING ELSE</span>]])</nowiki></code> |
| 1. Create a page for your signature [[Special:Mypage/sig|here]].
| |
| 2. Edit the page and insert this text:<pre>[[User:Username|Username]]</pre> replacing "Username" with your username.
| |
| | |
| === Customization ===
| |
| If you want your name to be colored or have a different font, insert this text '''instead''' of the text in number two:<pre>[[User:Username|<span style="font-family:font; color:#hexcode;">Username</span>]]</pre>
| |
| If you want to link to your talk page and your contributions page, insert this text '''after''' the text in numbers two or three:
| |
| <pre>([[User talk:Username|talk]] &middot; [[Special:Contributions/Username|edits]])</pre>
| |
| Once you have the signature created the way you want it, save the edit. Then go to your [[Special:Preferences|preferences page]]. ''Be sure to follow all rules outlined in [[Destinypedia:Signature Policy]].''
| |
| | |
| === Preparing for usage ===
| |
| Once you are at your preferences page, change the text in the "Signature" box to this:<pre>{{User:Username/sig}}</pre>
| |
| | |
| Make sure the "[[File:Rawsigcheckbox.png|link=|top]] Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" option is checked, and save your preferences.
| |
| | |
| == Usage ==
| |
| Now that your signature is set up, know how to use it:
