[Mediawiki-l] Editing the Nav Panel

[zodiac at exterminator.net]

I have tried the methods given in the MediaWiki manuals that are online to do simple, basic editing of the Navigation Panel, only to find it impossible to change anything I try to change. Simple procedures such as changing the titles of the navigation links, which I know is possible because I see the titles changes on other MediaWikis, Wikipedia for example. The same with adding or deleting a link in the Navigation Panel. Nothing seems to work, I just understand it.


Is there an actual manual online that helps an administrator do such simple changes ? I just don't understand why MediaWiki makes things so difficult when they should be pretty straight forward & simple.


Thanks in advance.
