Creating a new page

---

There are two ways to create a new page in Wikka:

1. Creating a new page from the browser address field

To create a new page from your browser address field, just type the name of the page (usually a WikiWord) after the Wikka root URL. For instance, to create a new page on this server you just need to type in the browser address field http://wiki.elearning.ubc.ca/NewPage∞.

You should consider that creating a page in this way method leaves the page orphaned until a link to it from an existing page is created. For this reason, the first method is preferred.

To save a page, click the "Store" button at the bottom of the editing interface

2. Creating a new page from an existing page.

Another way to create a new page is to edit an existing page, insert somewhere in the page a link to the soon-to-be-created page you want to create (either by using a WikiName or a [[double bracket]] internal link) and save it. The link to the new page will be highlighted as a missing page. Just clicking on this link will open an editable version of the new page.
