If I am correct, you just have to log into a wiki account you have created, then just click edit. I have not tested it though.
I cannot figure it out.
Would someone like to walk me through it?
Creating a new page on the wiki is a 2-step process that isn’t easily discoverable, but is easy enough to do once you know the trick.
First, you create a link to the page that you want to add. To do this, go to a page that will present the link to your new page, such as https://vexforum.com/wiki/index.php/TeamList.
Then edit the appropriate section, and add a new link in the same format as the links already present, such as
[HTML]*[Team323B]] - Bot-E Builders[/HTML]
Then save the change.
The next step is to edit your new page. Do this by clicking on the link you just created in step 1. That should take you to your new, blank page. Edit and save.
Cheers,
I don’t get it.

I can edit and save this page just fine, so something must be off with your account permissions. This looks like something the site admin will have to help with. I suppose you would post a request for help on the [Forum Support forum.

OK… Thanks!
Could you maybe explain it more with pics?
I may have not done something right… Don’t know.
Thanks!
I tried out of interest, worked for me.
Perhaps it’s a test of some sort … Reminds me of a joke about PE teachers.
I added some instructions to the wiki help page since this question comes up from time to time. If I get a chance, I’ll try to add some screen shots.
Cheers,
I see all the text on here, but now I can’t edit it…
What should I do?
Did you click on the “edit” tab at the top of the page?
There is no edit tab that I can see.
Is there another option?
Can you see this? Click on it then you can edit the page.

When the Wiki was first implemented, ( most of ) the existing Vexforum Users were setup as having all the right Wiki Privileges…
The Vexforum User that have joined since then don’t always have their Wiki settings correct…
Contact the Vexforum Administrators to see if they will “adjust” your settings to permit Wiki write access…
Who are the forum administrators and how can I contact them?
Scroll to the bottom left of the page. There’s a “contact us” link that allows you to send a PM directly to the forum administrators. They are the folks who administrate the forums.
Good luck!
I figured out what was the problem.
I did not have the right permissions to edit pages, so I contacted the admins and asked for permission.
Now I can edit!
Thank you all for your help!
