Someone added drop-down menus "Shades of Green" and "Shades of Brown" to this Wikia. I'm glad they did but I want to know how to add drop-down menus so that we can have a more balanced representation of colors: "Shades of Red" or "Shades of Gray". The categories already exist but haven't been turned into drop-down menus.

Thank you,

You mean at the top of the page? Non-administrators can't do anything about that, unfortunately. Sorry.  Monchoman45  Talk  Contribs  Skystone  21:25,2/8/2011 

Yes, I mean at the top of the page and I am an administrator. I created the color wiki. I'm just lacking in the technical skills to know how to add drop-down menus. Thanks for responding though. --Bejjinks 03:23, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

I consolidated some info about the top menus here:

I am very frustrated with Wikia. I can't access special pages anymore the way I used to. Even though I'm the administrator of Color Wiki, there is no link given to me for doing any administrator activity. Thank you for your help anyway. --Bejjinks 17:43, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

As an administrator, you can use MediaWiki:Wiki-navigation to customize the drop down menus at the top of every page.  Monchoman45  Talk  Contribs  Skystone  18:17,2/9/2011 

Bejjinks. You, and a few thousand other admins, are very frustrated with Wikia. The main special pages already had links set up for them in the last skin (Monaco skin). Now they make admins have to figure out a lot of technical crap just to set up the necessary links. And the links end up being buried in menus whereas before they were directly visible in the sidebar. Oh, the infinite wisdom of Wikia...

You can put links to special pages in My Tools in the toolbar at the bottom of the page, or in the menus at the top of the page. I prefer the main ones at the top of the page in the "Wiki tools" menu I created. See it on any page in the cannabis wiki, or the setup page here:

Your wiki's menu setup page is here:

Some of the special page links in the top menu will also need JS:
