How do you get the status indicater to change colors?
By creating a new status indicator. By creating a new template for each story, I can go to the Special Page 'Most Linked To' and see precisely how many pages each story has.
As for the colors themselves in each template, edit a template and you'll see lines like: bgcolor="#CCFFCC" That means that the background color for the following section should be hexadecimal #CCFFCC, which is a pale green. Platypus
How do you create a new template? It's a bit like creating a new page. First you need to put the name of your new template on a page and save that page. Template names use the squiggly brackets { rather than the square ones [. Then edit the page you put the template name on. At the bottom of the edit screen, under the save button, will be lines saying:
Templates used on this page:
• Whatever you named your template
Now you can click on the red link and go to the edit page for your template. I copy the coding from one template to the next and just do minor tweaking, like altering the colors. Platypus
