2 - Creating a Wiki for Your Mod

How to create and configure a wiki for your mod.

Written by Dobya

1. Creating a mod

Start by going to the dashboard. If you haven't created any mods yet, you'll see a "No mods yet" message with a create button below it. If you already have mods, they'll be listed there — click New mod to add another.

On the creation page, you'll see the following fields:

  • Mod name (Required): The name of your mod as it will appear on pages.
  • Description (Optional): A short description of what your mod does.
  • Mod Icon (Optional): An icon to represent your mod.
  • Visibility (Required, default: "Private"): Controls who can see your mod.

About visibility

  • Private: Only you and your collaborators can see this mod.
  • Unlisted: Accessible to anyone with the link, but won't appear in public listings.
  • Public: Your mod will be listed here.

Since you're just getting started, Private or Unlisted is recommended.

Congratulations — you've created your first mod wiki!

2. Collaborators

If you're working with a team and want to give members editing access, you can add them as collaborators.

On your mod's main page, look for the collaborators panel in the bottom-left — initially it will only show you. Click Manage to open the collaborator settings.

There you'll see the owner, a list of collaborators, and a reference to the available permission levels:

  • Owner: Full control over everything. This role cannot be changed.
  • Admin: Can create, edit, and delete pages. Can also manage collaborators and invite new members.
  • Editor: Can create, edit, and publish pages. Cannot manage collaborators or mod settings.
  • Viewer: Can view private mod content, but cannot edit or create pages.

To add someone, click Invite Collaborators, enter their username, and select a role. They'll receive an email invitation — once they accept, they'll appear in your collaborators list.
