How to Post a Log

From Tenebrae
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Step One

Login. If you do not have a login, you may +request one from staff.

Step Two

Add your log name to the bottom of our logs page. This usually involves putting your log name in brackets, like this: [[Log Name]]. If you're not sure, just follow what other people have done on that page.

Save, then click on your log name (which is now in red).

Step Three

Paste your log! Be sure and add [[Category:Logs]] at the bottom.

Or, if you are posting a PrP, you can use a template.

  • Word, OpenOffice, and LibreOffice Plugins: These plug-ins are available for many common word-processing softwares. Format your log in your favorite word processor, then export.
