Main Page > Journal > Basic Questions

For the Navigation side bar, how exactly do I format the text to create the link that will take the user directly from the Main Page to the Basic Questions?

One of the solutions (but not exactly that "direct" one you hope): 1°) Edit the page Mediawiki:Sidebar .. ... add a line **BasicQ|BasicQ-url to complete the menu 2°) Create the following two new pages : (names are for example) .. ... create Mediawiki:BasicQ -> Your Basic Questions (NB : aims to show the name) .. ... create Mediawiki:BasicQ-url -> Basic Questions (NB : aims to show the URL) .. and i'll get the new line in menu with the right name and the right URL @+

I have a page titled "Basic Questions" and its pathway from the Main Page is this:

Main Page > Journal > Basic Questions

For the Navigation side bar, how exactly do I format the text to create the link that will take the user directly from the Main Page to the Basic Questions?

I understand the format is "** target|link text" but I do not understand this, even with the examples given. How would you write out for the above example?

For the URL I am using the default version, not the "prettier" one, in case that's relevant.

Thanks in advance.
