====== How to create a group ======

Please follow the steps below to create a group.

If you don't have an account for the wiki, follow [[http://www.electronclub.org/doku.php?id=welcome&do=register|this link]] to create one.

  * To keep this guide visible open the [[:groups|groups]] page in a new tab/window
  * Click the 'Edit this page' link from the right hand side, e.g. {{wiki:how_to_edit_page.png|Edit this page}}
  * Scroll down the editor until you find a section titled 'Create your own group', this is only visible in edit mode.
  * Follow those instructions, essentially copy the line below:

  [[groups:EnterGroupNameHere]]** - short description of your group   

  * Paste this into groups page above the line that reads:

  /* Add new groups above this placeholder */

  * Replace 'EnterGroupNameHere' with the name of your group
  * Replace 'short description of your group' with a short description of your group
  * Click 'Preview', once the page has refreshed, scroll down to make sure everything looks as you expect
  * If not edit and preview until you are happy with the results
  * Click the 'Save' button and the page will refresh with your shiny new link on display
  * You'll notice the link is red, click the link and you'll be taken to a page which reads:

{{ :wiki:how_to_groups_create_page.png?nolink |}}

  * At this point click the 'Create this page' link, which is almost identical to the 'Edit this page' link illustrated above.
  * A new edit window will be opened with a template. Replace the place holder text with something sensible
    * Where applicable explain any acronyms
    * Be descriptive. Assume that the reader knows nothing about your group or it's activities.
    * If available please provide a link to your website/web presence.
    * Adding some form of contact detail (email address) is very useful and saves us, the CCA and potential attendees a lot of time.
  * As above, edit/preview until you are happy with the results, then click save.

If you run into any problems please [[:contact|contact us]].
