If your guild need a website, UOGuide can provide one.

  • The only requirement is a user account
  • Setup is immediate
  • It is 100% free
  • Customize your guild website anyway you like
  • Upload images and have them appear on your page
  • Updating is quick and easy
  • High visibility being on UOGuide

Website Setup

The location of the link you use to create your guild page

Once you have an account and are logged in, you can setup your guild website immediately. In the search menu type in "Guild: YOUR GUILD NAME" and press search. It will say no results found. Near the top will be a red link showing the search query you entered. Click it to be taken to your new guild page for editing.

  • Incorrect: www.uoguide.com/Brave Knights of Britannia
  • Correct: www.uoguide.com/Guild: Brave Knights of Britannia

Fill out the information you want to provide and submit it.

If you wish to add images or other styling, see the Help:Contents page for tips. Help is always linked in the left red menu.

Images

An example of renaming your image

If you want to place an image on your guild page, visit the Special:Upload tool which is linked in the blue menu. We request that you prefix the name of your image with your guild name. For example if the Brave Knights of Britannia uploaded a logo named logo.jpg, it would be rename it braveknightsofbritannia_logo.jpg. This will help keep guild images separate from the rest of the website and prevent naming conflicts.

  • Incorrect: logo.jpg
  • Correct: YOURGUILDNAME_logo.jpg

The renaming can take place during upload. After you browse to your image and select it, change the destination filename after it appears.

Additional Pages

If you desire additional pages for your guild, please create them based off your current guild name. For example if you wanted to make a page listing members who have been granted medals:

  • www.uoguide.com/Guild: Brave Knights of Britannia Medals

You can create as many additional pages as your guild needs.

Page Protection

In the event that some malicious person tries to vandalize your guild page, the UOGuide staff will enable author protection. This will allow only the guildmaster (who should have been the one to make the guild page) to edit the guild page.

If you are worried about vandalism send us a message and we will enable author protect for you.

Removing Page Title

There is a special wiki code you can use to remove the top text from your page. You can insert an image instead or add additional information to the title. Use the __NOTITLE__ command to accomplish this.
