I can't seem to edit "Extract and Upload the Install Archive" on the wiki.

(1/4) > >>

K@:
I wanted to change:

"Once the install archive has been downloaded, it will need to be uploaded and extracted before the installer can be executed."

to:

"Once the install archive has been downloaded, it will need to be extracted to your hard disk and the actual files uploaded to your site, before the installer can be executed."

But, I don't seem to be able to. :(

AngelinaBelle:
eh?

AngelinaBelle:
Oh.  That's because I was using that bit of text in a couple of places, so I put it in a wiki-template to save me a bit of typing.
I was thinking like a dev, that day, I guess.

So I go to http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/index.php?title=Installing&action=edit
And I see the templates used listed down at the bottom, follow the link to the template:
http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/index.php?title=Template:Extract_and_Upload&action=edit

Now, the file can either be uploaded and extracted, or else extracted and then uploaded.
Which is what I was trying to get at.

So I describe each in a separate paragraph

K@:
Ah, right! :)

I think I'll leave that bit, coz there're lots of squiggly bits that I might break.  :o

AngelinaBelle:
Well, as long as you stay away from the curly brackets, you are OK.
My question is -- when I wrote that, it was clear as day to me.

to me.

But do you think this would be confusing to the users you are targetting?
