Thanks for these buttons.
However, I got non user-friendly error messages when using buttons on a page being created.
Consider this page:
The page does not (yet) exist.
The page hhhhhh you want to access does not exist.
* create page
Error was (when using button print on left side):
A nasty error has occurred. If the problem repeats, please fill (if possible) a bug report.

Also, button types [[button edit-append]] , [[button edit-sections]] were not recognized.

I'm trying to add the discuss button, but keep getting a "The button type is not recognized" error.
What's the type of the discuss button?

Hello,
I'd quite like to use buttons (i.e. clickable images) to link to pages in my wiki, this is to increase accessibility for dyslexics and speakers of other languages.
There doesn't seem to be a type for that.
I'm stuck with just putting text links underneath images, and the " _ " option in tables doesn't seem to work.
Jack
Try this:
[[>]]
[[button source style="background-image: url(http://www.wikidot.com/local--files/files/view-source.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px; color: #444"]]
[[button print style="background-image: url(http://www.wikidot.com/local--files/files/document-print.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px;color: #444"]]
[[/>]]Then alter as needed.
- Replace the url parameter of background-image with the url of your image.
- If you only want images and no text, replace the text parameter with text=" "

I think I found what I was looking for over here: http://www.wikidot.com/doc:backlinks-module
I' leaving my original question here in case anyone else ends up here with the same question. Feel free to delete it if that's more appropriate, thanks.
Hello, I'm trying to display in a page the list of pages that link to it. In essence, the same list displayed when I click the
Options > Backlinks button.
For this, I am using
[[button backlinks text="Click here to get the list of backlinks"]]
However, I'd love to be able to display the list without requiring the user to click on the button.
Also, are there ways I can customize the result produced by clicking the backlinks button (e.g.: the "Other pages that
depend on this page" text at the top of the backlinks list, perhaps its position, and so on) ?
I use this on my site in the Top Menu and wanted to share how I used a div class to manipulate exactly where I wanted them.
[[div class="noprint" style="position:absolute; top:21px; right: 50; margin: 0px; text-align:right;z-index:900;"]]
[[button edit text="edit" style="background-image: url(http://community.wikidot.com/local--files/nav:side/accessories-text-editor-32x32.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px; color: #444"]] [[button edit-sections text="sec" style="background-image: url(http://community.wikidot.com/local--files/nav:side/accessories-text-editor-32x32.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px; color: #444"]] [[button source text="src" style="background-image: url(http://www.wikidot.com/local--files/files/view-source.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px; color: #444"]] [[button print text="prt" style="background-image: url(http://www.wikidot.com/local--files/files/document-print.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom right; padding-right: 20px;color: #444"]]

Hi! I'm trying to add a join button to my wiki, but can't get it to work… I can get a link to a tab that allows a user to register, but I'm not able to get it in a pop-up window like I see on other wikis… any suggestions? Thanks

Hey bschaffnerunr,
You are using this code:
To join, simply click [*https://www.wikidot.com/default--flow/login__CreateAccountScreen?originSiteId=311313&openerUri=http://unreclub.wikidot.com here.]
It's probably better to use the Join module directly, because that means existing Wikidot users can join your site as well!
To join, simply click [[module Join button="here" class="non-existent"]].
By using some class that doesn't exist, the button's default CSS won't be applied and you'll be left with a plain link. Therefore, it should look the same as you currently have it on your page.
Hope that helps.
And please post a link to your site to help us out… so we don't need to go searching for it :)

Thanks for getting back to me, leiger, but I put in this code and it didn't work. Instead, it just literally puts [[module Join button="here" class="non-existent]]. Any ideas?
Sorry about the link… I forgot…

Hmm, it's a module, so it must need to be on a new line. I forgot about that.
Try this?
To join, simply click \
[[module Join button="here" class="non-existent"]]Otherwise, if that doesn't work, you might just have to put the whole thing as a link: (on a new line)
[[module Join button="To join, simply click here" class="non-existent"]]Note that the Join button disappears if you are signed in and are a member of the site, so to see if it's working you'll have to actually sign out, or use a different browser that you haven't signed into yet (you can have e.g. Internet Explorer signed out, and Mozilla Firefox signed in).
You might also want to consider the default appearance… but looking at the link you have I think you've already done this before? (in this code, I removed the custom CSS class)
[[module Join button="To join, simply click here"]]Edit: Definitely try the default appearance first, if you haven't yet (that last code block) - as that will be what most other wikis are using. If you don't like it's appearance we can help you to change that too :)
