New page

==Wiki Editing Access==
Gaining access to editing the Star Frontiers Network Wiki is fairly straight forward. You just need to follow a few simple steps.

# First you need to have an account on the [http://starfrontiers.info/forum Star Frontier Network Forums]. If you already are a forum member you're good to go. If not jump over the the [http://starfrontiers.info/forum/ucp.php?mode=register Forum Registration Page] and sign up. Go ahead. We'll wait.
# Next, on the Forum page, select the User Control Panel link in the sidebar.
# In the User Control Panel, click on the ''Usergroups'' tab.
# Select the radio button by the Wiki group and select ''Join Group''
# You're all set. Now you can click on the ''Log In'' link in the upper right and log in with the same username and password you have on the forums <br />''Note: We're working on making the sign on work across both parts of the site so that once you're signed on in either place your signed on in both''

==Linking between the Wiki and Forums==
=== Linking to the Forums from the Wiki===
If you want to create a link from a wiki page to a page on the forum follow these steps
# Go the the forum page you want to link to
# Copy the URL of the page
# In the Wiki page you create the link using the following code [''<copied forum link>'' Text for the Link]

===Linking to the Wiki from the Forum===
This is even easier. To link to a wiki page from the forums you just use a special [wiki] tag.
# Note the title of the page you want to link to. For example the title of this page is 'Instructions for Gaining Wiki Access'
# In the forum comment insert a [wiki] tag that looks like this:'''[wiki=<page title with spaces replaced by underscores>]Text for the link[/wiki]'''. So to link to this page you would insert the following tag: ''[wiki=Instructions_for_Gaining_Wiki_Access]Go here for instructions on gaining Wiki Editing right[/wiki]''.

That's all there is to it.
