Unable to access t2d section of tdn
by Jason Swearingen · in Site Feedback · 10/12/2005 (4:21 pm) · 7 replies
I have a t2d license, but when i go to tdn and click the t2d link it says I dont have access.
i think i tried the t2d link a day or 2 after tdn went live and it worked, but i'm not 100% sure.

It appears to be related to a session timeout, so if you don't do anything for about 20 minutes you will have to go through the log out / log in dance. It is a known issue and they are working on it.

If you mean an entirely new article, then just go to the address line and change it. If you go to an unknown page then it will create it rather than returning a 404 error.
example
If you are on page http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/T2DScript/PlatformerOverview
you can delete the PlatformerOverview part and type in http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/T2DScript/PlatformerNewPage.
Since that page does not exist it will bring up the edit window. You can then just add what you want and when you save it will create the new page. Then you can just go to the main page and create a link to it.

What do you mean by 'sections'? If you mean an entirely new article, then just go to the address line and change it. If you go to an unknown page then it will create it rather than returning a 404 error.

Then, clicking on that wiki word in your primary article will take you to a blank edit page for the new word.
And also as an fyi, the sections are auto-magically created when you use header formatting in your article...so if you add a new header level, or a new header item within that same level, it will be automagically defined as a new "section" within the article.

You can also create new pages "by reference" if you use the syntax for creating a new twiki word while writing a related article. I admit the core wiki docs take a bit of getting used to, but if you hit edit on a page you know has a wiki word, and then copy the syntax for your new wiki word, it will then display in red text--indicating that it's a wiki word with no definition yet.Then, clicking on that wiki word in your primary article will take you to a blank edit page for the new word.
