Form:Event: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 21:00, 11 September 2025

The form for adding events (this page) is currently broken. For now the best way to add an event is to:

⁠Create an account/login.
Search to see if your event exists yet—if it does, you can skip to the last step of this process.
Navigate to stencil.wiki/wiki/Your_event_name (underscores for spaces).
⁠Click Create source
In the text area for the page type {{Event}} and hit the "Save page" button.
Then click Edit with form at the top of the new page and you'll be in the regular event editing form.

Something about creating pages with forms broke when launching the new wiki on the main server, but editing pages is still fine.

This is the "Event" form. To create a page with this form, enter the page name below; if a page with that name already exists, you will be sent to a form to edit that page.
