This page will demonstrate how to add your network to IRC-Wiki.
Creating my page
Creating the page is really easy, just type into your browser http://irc-wiki.org/ followed by your networks address. For this guides purposes, we will pretend my network is called Net22.
- So I would type the following into my browser
http://irc-wiki.org/Net22
- Then a blank wiki page will load:
- Click the create tab (the one that is circled) and then you're blank network page will be created.
First thing to add to my page
The first thing you should add to your network is the network template. You do this by copying and pasting the following onto the top of your page:
{{Network | logo = [[File:mylogo.jpg|left|150px]] | rank = {{#widget:SIRC_Rank|network=Net22}} | owners = [[:User:Bertrum|Bertrum]] | website = http://net22.com | network_address = irc.net22.com | ports = 6667-6670,7000,6697([[SSL]]) | email = staff@net22.com | ircd = InspIRCd | services = Atheme }}
In the template, you will notice the word rank, followed by a widget, this adds a SearchIRC rank widget to your networks page. An example of one of these is: #REDIRECT [[Widget:IRC Rank]] You don't have to use this, but we think it's pretty cool :P
If your network isn't indexed by SearchIRC then you should visit http://searchirc.com and sign up!
What comes next?
The second thing you should do, is add a small about us section to the page, just be brief and give a few examples of the features your network offers.
Example:
=Net22 IRC Network= ==About us== Net22 is a small network, averaging 100+ users, we have 60 registered channels, 4 servers, and 5 ircops! We have all the standard IRC games, such as Uno, Hangman and trivia and we have Minecraft too! We also run our own quotes database, visit out website for more information!
What other widgets can I add to my page?
SearchIRC Graph
SearchIRC Channel list
Twitter Feed
You can add a twitter feed to your page, you do this by adding the following widget to your page:
{{#widget:Twitter|user=ParadoxIRC|width=auto}}
The network used in the example is ParadoxIRC, the output of the ParadoxIRC twitter feed, and all other twitter feeds would be:
