Guys And Gals,

:)

we have noticed that none of you have been making use of the table of contents features in the article section.

I tht i will just give you some basic idea.

Well for starters, when you think that your review/guide is gonna be long its best to span it multiple pages. This helps as those on slow connections can see big articles/guides faster. Moreover you can now seperate the images from the text.

Also whenever you create a new thread in such sections, you have option to select a icon from the gallery. Choose the one thats best for your guide/review. In case of movie, a moderator will upload a new icon for you thats relevant to the review.

Synopsis is for a short description of what the review is about. Byline is same thing but even shorter than synopsis. We encourage you to fill the synopsis whenever you write a review/guide(especially a movie review). Byline however is optional.

Ok coming back to how to insert page breaks....

whenever writing a review... just insert

[break]

^^ that will cause the text from that point on to show in new page

If you want you can do like this

[break=some name]

eg [break=Conclusions]

^^ the above will also cause a page break and in the table of contents you will see the page listed as 'Conclusions'

eg see this article... I just inserted the page breaks on this
http://www.techenclave.com/forums/review-twinmos-pc3200-ram-40251.html

As you can see.. it looks neat plus it looks grt. Notice navigation menu on right and at bottom.

Thats it guy..
enjoy!!

Safin, from where did u get the attachments. I'm hacking my brains & eyes to find out about this. It doesn't appear to be anywhere. Is this only for the mods or what?
 
^^ what do you mean?
While replying to post or making a new thread, find this
"Attach Files"
"Valid file extensions: bmp doc gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png psd txt zip"

Theres also a button called "Attachments"
Click on it and upload your attachments.
Then whenever u mouse over the links, u'll see the Attachment ID in your browser's status bar. Use that ID for your attachment to inline attach your pics using the
 
where can I see the attachments or attach files thing. I've posted a screenshot so if somebody knows better than me please point out. I tried with FF as well as with IE but both give the same window :-

 
^ You would get the option of attaching files when you post a new thread like this -



or scroll down & see in additional options the tab - attach files.
 
All this is not visible in the previews, right? I am trying to post a new review in this way, but there is no sign of any of these in the preview. The [break=Overview] is shown exactly as is, without a TOC.
 
Can you check out my article please? There still seems to be something wrong

[EDIT] - I managed to fix this. however, the first page is still called "Page 1" Any way to change this?
