Thing 9

At this moment in time, Intrack can not describe the steps I went through to add a page to the MISDwiki23Things. It took two days to trek through the instructions (read all instructions first- Mom's voice proclaims in my head). The multiple instructions became a jumble in my brain which meant I had to start again. This time a new strategy (remember to recognize the fact that you have lost the meaning of what you are reading and reread) was necessary. Read the directions in small chunks and apply. This worked. Well, it almost worked without problems. I forgot to use my gmail account and used the district email. This presented me with a "learning" opportunity - how to delete and try again. Success was sweet when I receive the gmail notice that I was accepted to the sandbox. However, there are cyber bullies in the sandbox who withhold and hide things. One unresolved issue is on my table of contents, I have the toc in bold print proudly displayed and no clue as to how to hide that little command. The last step require an outside intervention. Thank you Scott. He guided me through the linking of my page to the home page.
Now this is behind me, I did have fun linking the image, but coming up with a burning question was not.

  1. You have to do double brackets to get the table of contents to work. It should look like this when you are in edit mode:

  2. I had the same enlightening experience. It is true we all make the same mistakes.
