pagetemplates:utility-main

This page explain the Utility Page Template.


Each utility must have its own namespace. As an example ff3:ff3us:util:ff3usme is one. Put there the files that can be downloaded. If you add screenshots, you can put them in ff3:ff3us:util:ff3usme:screenshots for Gallery purpose. Other sub-namespaces are fine too if it keep thing ordered.

For FF6 Advance, create your utility namespace in ff6a:utils and for General ROM hacking in rh:util.


Open the template page you need and in the page id textbox enter the wanted utility name which will become part of the namespace (such as ff3usme in ff3:ff3us:util:ff3usme). Click on the red link in yellow box after to edit your new page.

The FF3us / FF6j utility template page is available here.
The FF6 Advance utility template page is available here.
The ROM Hacking utility template page is available here.

When your new page is opened and ready to be edited, remove the first section on top of page. It is similar to this but will differ a bit depending of which template you use. However it's always the first 5 lines:

<WRAP group>
<WRAP column leftalign>
~~OpenAS>rh:util:SAVEAS_PAGE#pagetemplates:utility-rh~~
</WRAP>
</WRAP>

Notice: Any WRAP tag such as <WRAP group>, <WRAP column> or </WRAP> must not be removed from the template. The only exception is the above code block containing the first 5 lines of the template.


1) ~~NOTOC~~ at top of page is required for no table of content.


2) ====== utility name here ====== is replaced by the utility name. As an example ====== FF3usME ======.
