Forum:Main page changes

Hi All,

I've been working on a new main page layout today. Hopefully you have read about the skin and ad changes at Wiki's New Style on Central Wiki. If not, I hope you'll have a look.

One of the changes is a block of two ads on each main page. It's possible that they won't always show up, but to ensure your main page continues to work properly when they do, you need to update your main page column formatting code with new column tags

I have drafted a main page using the new tags on Main Page/draft which I hope you can take a look at - feel free to edit it of course (possibly two columns in the table of contents?). The main change to the layout is the fixed width of the right column. This still allows a lot of customisation - for example see these main pages - muppet, wowwiki , ffxi.

If you encounter any problems with the new tags, please let me know.

Thanks -- 11:04, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Your draft looks OK to me (and I don't see the ads anyway - cheers Adblock!), but we should wait for other people here to deliver their verdict, notably the admins and other moderators. Makron1n 12:29, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
