Available templates

To create portal pages in our wiki, you can use our pre-designed starter pages. Currently, the following starter pages are available:

• 

  Startpage Intranet

• 

  Startpage Team

Importing additional templates

To make additional templates in your wiki available, import them from our Startpage templates download page. If you want to create your own, simply create additional pages starting with the page name "Help:Startpage ...." and its necessary subpages.

Using the template

To use any startpage templates, the following steps are necessary:

1. Go to the page Template:Startpage in your wiki.
2. Click on the link for one of the available templates. This brings you to the template in the Help: namespace.
3. Copy the page including its subpages to a location of your choice. For example, make it the main page for an existing namespace that does not have a main page yet (e.g., IT:Main Page would create the main page for the IT: namespace).

Editing your start page

Editing the subpages

After copying a start page to your wiki location, you can start to edit it. The sections of the start page are not located on the page itself, but are stored as subpages of the start page. To edit a section, click the edit icon at the end of the page and select a subpage:

The edit button

Once you are on the subpage, you can edit it like any wiki page. If the page contains a template, edit the template. If the page contains the content directly on the page, you can replace it with any content you like.

Adding or removing sections

To add, edit, or remove sections from the Startpage, you need to work in the source view of your page. Since the title area is hidden, you need to go to your page tools in the right sidebar.

In the Details section, click ...all actions. From the actions dialog window, select Edit source.

Included sections

Section	Subpage	Content type	Description
Banner	Banner	Template	The banner parameters are described on the Banner download page.
Iconnav	Iconnav	Template	The icon nav uses FontAwesome icons out of the box. Up to BlueSpice 4.2, those are not included as an extension. In this case they have to be replaced with Bootstrap Icons or an external reference to FontAwesome has to be added to MediaWiki:Common.css (if allowed by the security policies of the company). The parameters and links to the icon libraries are described on the Image cards download page.
Announcements	Blog	Timeline parser function	Simple wiki table. To add or remove news, just edit the table.
Contacts	Contact	Text, <profileimage>-tag	Content can be edited directly on the page. Double-click on the profile image tag to change the user name for the contact avatar.
Meeting minutes	Minutes	<inputbox>-tag, <dpl>- tag, subpages query	The meeting minutes are created via an InputBox. They are created as subpages of a Minutes page in the main namespace.
Recent changes	Recent changes	<smartlist>-tag	The smartlist tag is used by default. You can choose any other way of creating page lists.
New employees	New employees	Template	Employees can be shown with their user images or custom uploaded images. Links go to the profile page or, alternatively, to a custom wiki page. The template paramaters are described on the Employees download page.
