Hi :)
I would like to reproduce the template of the MediaWiki Home page. I read documentation about templates but I'm not sure that's what I need as the blocks I want to create are meant to be used only on the Home page of my wiki. Also, I would like to know how to use CSS to place those blocks like on the MediaWiki Home page. I'm using the Vector theme.
Thanks for any help :)

I was able to do this by viewing the source of Wikipedia's/Mediawiki's main page, copy it & past it into yours using your edit function. Then figure out what you want it to do & weed out the stuff you don't want. You can even do it in a sandbox so that you can play with it safely. Also take note of the templates used on Wikipedia/Mediawiki and make sure they are available on your site. Best wishes! john
