This page explains how to edit, add, and maintain pages in your wiki. Everything is plain HTML — no special software needed.

File structure

Your wiki lives in a folder that looks like this:

index.html          ← front page
style.css           ← all the styles (edit this to change looks)
pages/
  getting-started.html
  about.html
  topic-one.html
  topic-two.html
  topic-three.html
  changelog.html

Adding a new page

Copy any existing page file (e.g. topic-one.html), rename it, and replace the content inside the .article-body div. Then add a link to it in the sidebar of every page.

Editing the sidebar

The sidebar is copy-pasted into every page — there's no shared include system on static sites. When you add a new page, open every HTML file and paste in the new <li> link. It's a little tedious but keeps things simple.

Tip: Use your text editor's Find & Replace across files to update the nav all at once.

Uploading to Neocities

  1. Log in to your Neocities dashboard.
  2. Click Upload and drag all your files in — keep the pages/ folder together.
  3. Your wiki will be live at yourname.neocities.org immediately.

Changing the site title

Search for MY WIKI across all HTML files and replace it with your own title. Also update the <title> tag in each file's <head>.

Customising the look

All styling is in style.css. The key CSS variables are at the top — change --accent and --bg to completely transform the colour scheme.

:root {
  --bg:     #0d0f0f;   /* page background */
  --accent: #00e5a0;   /* green highlight colour */
  --accent2: #00aeff;  /* blue highlight colour */
}
