David, I added a page to the wiki today here:

{Old Link Removed - No Login using the Wiki}

There is supposed to be an edit link on there somewhere. I admit it could be that there is something I was supposed to add to the page to make it editable, I for sure am not an expert with this wiki software, though I also know you just set it up so it could also be something that you accidentally missed in your template. I'm not the only one who has made pages missing this feature, a couple other pages are missing edit links too. It's especially an issue on this page since I invite future editors to add categories to the list, which they can't do if they can't edit the section . . . ACK!

Can you (or someone else who is more familiar with this wiki software) fix this and the other pages missing the edit? And please post back and let me know if there's something that I missed. I'm going to hold off on posting more on the wiki until I have an answer. I'm just plain short on time for this, and the wikimedia help pages can sometimes be less than helpful. Thanks!

Are you logged in? I haven't set it up but sometimes admins set it up where you'll have to login to edit something. If all else fails and you want to edit a page just type in {Old Link Removed - No Login using the Wiki}. I haven't personally noticed any missing edit links. Can you post a link to a page that doesn't have one?

It's because a "headline" wasn't added, like so

Content visible to registered users only.

Also on the left side there is an Edit link, it's like that on everypage too.

Thanks

Yup, that did it, page is fixed and ready! I knew it had to be something sneakily simple . . .

Now, I did notice ONE MORE WIKI THING. No breadcrumb trail. I think that has to be added to the wiki template somehow. I think wiki users would find it very helpful.
