• How to access the VK wiki page. VKontakte Wiki markup: how to create a VKontakte group using an internal page

    Progress does not stand still; something new is constantly appearing. So, with the development of social networks, various communities of interest for users began to appear. This added new opportunities to visitors of such services. Over time, the need arose to highlight the community, and thus wiki markup appeared. Owners of popular public pages constantly resort to designing their creations in this way.

    What is wiki markup?

    The more original a community is designed, the more interest it generates. You won’t surprise anyone with ordinary posts, and here wiki pages come to the aid of community owners - an alternative to the usual VKontakte posts. Thanks to this, you can embellish the public by adding articles with a variety of graphic and text elements (underlining, bold type, headings, lists), as well as creating a navigation menu. Wiki markup is indispensable when designing a community; it allows you to make it not only colorful, but also user-friendly. To do original design public, you will have to try hard, but the effort is worth the result!

    How to create a VKontakte wiki page?

    For users who have never dealt with such public design, at first glance it may seem that they cannot do this, but there is nothing complicated here. Once you learn how to design pages using wiki markup, you will never want to use simple notes on the wall.

    You can create a VKontakte wiki page for both a public page and a group, but the process is slightly different.

    Creating wiki pages for public pages

    How to create a VKontakte wiki page for a public site is of most interest to its owner. You need to create a link "vk.com/pages?oid=-Community_ID&p=Page_Name". The page title is the title of the wiki page.

    The community owner can pause at this point, since not everyone knows how to find out the ID. It's very simple: you need to open a link with the date of any post on the community wall, which will open in view mode. In the address bar there is a link “vk.com/community_address?w=wall-community_ID”, there you can see the ID. You can start filling out the page.

    Different page looks are created using tags.

    Wiki markup allows you to turn your community into a full-fledged website absolutely free!

    Creating a wiki page for groups

    To create a VKontakte wiki page, you need to open “Community Management”; in the “Materials” section there are two options to choose from: “Open” (all participants will have access to editing) and “Restricted” (only administrators and editors will have access rights). As a result, a “Latest News” link will appear on the community wall, which can be edited. This is the wiki page.

    If you have your own group, you should be wondering how to create a VKontakte wiki page for the group.

    In order for a wiki page to be attached to a post, you need to copy the link to it and paste it into the input form when creating a post. If you insert a picture into a post, it will be clickable.

    Using such pages, you can create both internal links leading to VKontakte pages and external links to third-party sites.

    Creating a VKontakte wiki page means making your community or group more attractive in appearance, more functional and more convenient for users.

    How to make an advertisement through “Read more”

    For the owner of a public page, it is imperative to know how to create a VKontakte wiki page with a “Read continuation...” link. This is a very smart type of advertising that interests many subscribers and simply on a subconscious level forces them to click on the link.

    “Answer here” is a link to another community for which advertising is being done in your public page. You need to create a post in the advertised community by inserting a link to the wiki page, which is attached to the post, after which it can be deleted from there.

    In your community, you place an intriguing advertising post, and in it there is a link to another community [publicХХХХХ|Answer here]. The user clicks on “Answer here” and is redirected to the advertised community, clicks on the link, and a wiki page opens, which can be designed as desired.

    As you can see, creating a VKontakte wiki page is not at all difficult if you follow all the instructions. With a little time, you can have a community with original design, lots of uniquely designed material. Such a public site looks much more aesthetically pleasing, and you want to visit it again and again.

    Hello friends! Let's return to our favorite social networks. Today I want to write a post about how to do various cool things on VKontakte.
    Want to know more? Then stay with me =)

    1) How to make a person’s name clickable

    Do you want to congratulate a person on his birthday in your VKontakte group, and do you want him to receive a notification about this in the replies? Or do you just want to make a person’s name clickable (put a link to the person’s VKontakte page) when you write a post about him? It's very simple!
    In the message, in the place where you want the person's name to appear, write an asterisk, and after it write the page ID of the person you need.

    If a person has a short address instead of an ID with numbers, then write this short page address after the asterisk. For example, a link to my VKontakte page can be written like this:
    *kristina.kulini4

    An asterisk and a short address of my VKontakte page without spaces.

    By the way, you don’t even have to bother with finding the right ID. Just put a star and start writing the name of your VKontakte friend. The contact itself will offer you a list of your friends, and you simply select the one you need.

    To change your friend's name to any word, simply replace the words in brackets with the one you need. For example, let's take the link to me again *kristina.kulini4 (Kristina Kulinich) . This is the standard type of link to my profile that will offer you a contact. But you can easily change the words in brackets to what you need, for example Kristyushka. And then the link will look like this:

    2) How to shorten VKontakte links?

    If you have long and ugly links, then VKontakte has a wonderful link shortening service. We go to the address https://vk.com/cc and enter our long link into the line and get a beautiful link address, with the contact address. Such links are more trustworthy among contact users than regular links.

    3) How to make a VKontakte page for a group or public. Creating a VKontakte wiki page

    So to create the page itself in your community you will need find out the ID of your VKontakte group. These numbers can easily be taken from community statistics. Go to statistics and in the address bar the last 8 digits will be your ID. V address bar browser paste this link http://vk.com/pages?oid=- XXX&p=Page_name

    where instead of XXX insert your community ID,
    and instead Page_name write the name of your future page.

    Moreover, here you can and even need to write the name of your page in Russian letters. You don't even have to replace spaces in words with underscores.

    After we have written the correct link, we simply follow it and it opens for us blank page. We need to click on the “fill with content” link and move on to the most interesting part - creating a wiki page.
    In principle, the wiki page editor is quite simple and it will not be difficult for anyone to understand it. But if something remains unclear to you, write in the comments and we’ll discuss everything.

    So, after the page is created and filled out, we need to get the correct link to it. To do this, copy the link in the browser line and delete these characters ?act=edit§ion=edit that is, only numbers should remain last.
    You have received the link - now you can use it at your discretion.

    4) For example, you can make sure that when you click on the image your page opens. How is this done? Very simple! Insert a link to the page into your post. Your page is loaded and displayed under the post. After that, we erase the address of our page and add a picture using the “attach” function. All! Now, after publishing, you will have a picture, under it there is an arrow with a link to the page, and when you click on the picture, you will be redirected to the page you created.

    Practice making such pages in your VKontakte group. In the future, I will tell you how you can make a beautiful clickable menu for your group.

    5) Do you want to decorate your post on the wall in a community group with small symbols or emoticons, like in personal correspondence on VKontakte? But you don't know where to get emoticons for the VKontakte wall? No problem. Now I will tell you all the secrets =)

    In fact, VKontakte emoticons are generated by special codes. Therefore, to insert some emoticons into your post, you need to insert a code of several characters. You can google the phrase “emoticons for contact” and you will be given many sites that have a sign with all the codes and emoticons. But there are a lot of advertisements on such sites, they pop up from the most unexpected places. Therefore, I advise you to copy the codes from this community. It has list from a bunch of emoticons. In the list you copy “krakozyabra” i.e. just a square. And then paste it in the right place in your post on the wall. After that, you can refresh the page and you will see the smiley. You can also simply copy the emoticon code, but then don't forget to remove the underscore from the code"_" . And all the necessary emoticon has been copied! All you have to do is paste it on your wall, in the group or even to status! Use emoticons and surprise your friends! =)

    I think you've had enough of little secrets and VKontakte tricks for today. The rest will come a little later. So subscribe to blog updates below so as not to miss everything new and interesting on social networks and more.
    By the way, write in the comments what else you want to know about the contact or other social networks. And I will definitely answer your questions in future articles.

    Christina was with you,
    See you again!

    Services for free and paid promotion of groups and accounts on social networks

    Today, every fifth VKontakte user probably administers at least one group. Some groups are created on the “join and forget” principle, which are not administered by the creator and are not filled with new content, but some groups that imply the presence useful information, need at least a couple individual pages and easy navigation through them. But where to get new pages? After reading this tutorial, you will learn how to create them.

    The lesson is divided into several parts and implies a deep familiarity with the VKontakte wiki markup, or, in any case, with that part of it that is responsible for creating new pages and links to them.

    Prologue:
    Before starting the lessons on creating pages, I would like to say a few words about wiki markup, its purpose and method practical application.

    Wiki markup is a special set of tags that provide a simpler syntax for working with elements HTML language. In the social network VKontakte it is used to create menus and new pages in groups and public pages, create links and mentions and much more.

    Thanks to wiki markup, you can create a full-fledged website from an ordinary community, creating an endless number of pages, correctly placing links to them and arranging all this graphically using pictures.

    When creating a full-fledged group, the wiki markup plays important role, because it allows you to create new internal pages. Having acquired basic knowledge about wiki markup, you will be able to use your experience when creating and filling any VKontakte group.

    Part 1 – Menu:
    First, let's decide where to create new pages. The very first internal page is created in the group menu. If after creating a group you do not see the menu, connect it.

    To do this, go to Community Management, find the item in the list Materials and turn it on (item Open). If you don't want to outside users, except administrators and editors, could create new pages in your group, select Limited.


    After this, open the main page of your group, hover over the item Latest news and go to the editing menu, where, in fact, we will create new pages.

    Part 2 – Link Building #1:
    The easiest way to create inside page in the VKontakte group – write the name desired page, enclosing it in double square brackets. It will look something like this:

    200?"200px":""+(this.scrollHeight+5)+"px");">[[Page title]]



    In this situation, the inscription Page title at the same time it is both the anchor of the link (as the link will be displayed in the group menu) and the name for the page itself (which will be displayed in the page title after its creation). That is, in the menu it will look like this:


    To finally create a page called Page title, click on the created link in the group menu:


    Clicking on the link takes us to this page. But since it is new, we will be asked to fill it with content. And as you can see from its title, it’s called Page title, just like the link in the menu.


    As mentioned above, when creating a page using this method, the link anchor and page title will have the same text. But what if you need to name the link as Menu link name and so that the page title displays something like Page title? You will learn about this further.
    Part 3 – Link Building #2:
    The second method of creating new pages implies that we pre-set the text that will be displayed on the link in the menu (link anchor) and the text that will appear in the page title.

    For this, a similar design is used, the only difference being that the page title and anchor link are separated by a vertical bar | . It will look something like this:

    200?"200px":""+(this.scrollHeight+5)+"px");">[[Page title|Menu link name]]



    Thus, in the group menu we will see a link Menu link name:


    And in the page title we will see Page title, as, in fact, was planned.

    Part 4 – Copying links to photos and created pages:
    Since in the next part of the manual we will examine graphic design links to the created pages, we will need to copy pieces of links to photographs and the pages themselves to create a graphical menu. Therefore, we will take this topic separately and analyze it.

    Once you have created a new page, it is technically not created yet. It needs to be filled with content (screenshot above). As soon as you have filled it out, saved it and proceeded to view, the path to this page will be displayed in the address bar of the browser. We need a specific piece that begins with the word page and ends before a question mark. An example is shown in the picture below:


    The same goes for photos: immediately after uploading the desired picture In a photo album, open a picture and see a link to the photo in the address bar of your browser. We only need a piece starting with the word photo. An example is shown in the picture below:


    For the sake of clarity, let me explain that -84747234 in both cases this is the identifier (number) of the VKontakte community, and the numbers 48858482 And 350088507 – these are the numbers of the created page and photo, respectively.
    Part 5 – Formatting links:
    This part has nothing to do with creating new pages, but allows you to beautifully design links to other pages. In this case, the image is used instead of the link anchor. This use of a picture and a link suggests that new page has already been created and filled with content, and the required photo has already been uploaded to the photo album.

    The design used is somewhat more complicated than in the previous two parts of the article, because it is complicated additional parameters to customize the picture itself. The design will look something like this:

    200?"200px":""+(this.scrollHeight+5)+"px");">[]



    Here:
    • photo-84747234_350088507 – link to the desired photo from a photo album;
    • 256x256px – image size in pixels. You can set any size, since the image can shrink and expand depending on the specified dimensions;
    • noborder – removes unwanted borders around the picture;
    • nopadding – removes unwanted padding around the image;
    • page-84747234_48858482 – link to a pre-created page.
    After saving, the result will be like this:


    As we can see, the image link leads to a pre-created page, and when you hover over the image link, a tooltip appears with the title of the page to which this image link refers.

    This is how the graphic design of both the group menu and any of the internal pages occurs. Knowing this, you can easily install graphic menus in any of your groups on the VKontakte social network.

    Part 6 – Wiki Pages:
    In addition to creating new internal pages in VKontakte groups and creating links to them, you have the opportunity to open the created pages in a window. These pages were named wiki pages.

    To create pop-up windows with wiki pages, you just need to make a special link to an existing internal page. It looks like this:

    If your group has a unique short address, for example vk.com/byarhangel, then the link could look like:

    Part 7 – About the posts on the wall:
    Since I'm talking about wiki pages, it wouldn't hurt to mention regular entries. After all, each entry is also a kind of wiki page. By clicking on the date under any entry, it will open in the wiki page window. This is true, just a note.


    Besides, there is one more interesting fact about records: if a hash tag is used in the record, for example, #postbyarhangel, then the path to the entry could be like this:


    However, when new posts with the same hash tag are added to the community wall, this link will refer to a search for posts with that hash tag.

    With this information, I want to say that hash tags in wall posts can be used to create unique links to pages, thereby creating interesting navigation through posts. Thus, without creating new internal pages, you can create an excellent group with a large number of wiki pages only through posts on the wall.

    Epilogue:
    This is such an interesting manual. I hope that after reading it, you will easily be able to create new pages in your communities and beautifully design links using images.

    If you try, you can create pages like this or even better:


    There is nothing particularly complicated here. Everything is taken apart down to the smallest detail. However, if you still have any questions, please ask them on our forum.

    Every user of the popular social resource VKontakte probably knows about the possibilities of creating various groups, but only a few know how to go about creating their own website from any such group... All that is required from the user in this case is basic knowledge about wiki markup and the ability to use it for your own purposes! About what wiki markup is, how to use markup correctly and format it correctly created groups, and, in fact, the speech will go further...

    I will teach you how to use the unlimited possibilities of wiki markup, because some time ago I myself tried to understand all this thoroughly. The information presented below, I am sure, will be more than useful not only for newcomers to this resource, but also for seasoned users with “experience”...

    What is wiki markup?

    So, the notorious wiki markup on VKontakte is nothing more than special language design of information web pages in the group you create. This very valuable tool allows you to build entire “masterpieces”: menus, tables, tags, as well as organize an additional structure of navigation elements for moving objects within a group, and format text according to the desired template.

    Why do you need wiki markup?

    When designing a group, such markings play an important role, because it is used to perform any editing. Suppose you wanted to create a group for the now popular way of making money affiliate programs, of which there are now “sea” on the Internet. Open to the user unlimited possibilities, but quite reasonably the question arises of how to properly and most attractively “wrap” all this in a beautiful wrapper. In other words, how to design it adequately to attract attention as much as possible more users? This is where knowledge about wiki markup, which I’m talking about, comes in handy...

    Anyone interested in replenishing the electronic knowledge base - library, can use wiki markup for editing or writing articles for the most popular Internet directory. Encyclopedias with the strange name Wikipedia, you know, everyone needs it, so you can do a good deed for the benefit of everyone!

    Designing a group using wiki markup

    Internet page editing system wiki markup resembles HTML layout, but allows you to quickly and easily mark up hyperlinks and structural text elements, as well as format individual elements. The main advantage of such markup is that anyone, even a not particularly “advanced” user, can teach themselves all the intricacies of this “craft”.

    Did you know that wiki markup takes into account all changes to pages, which makes it possible to compare two different editions, choosing a better option using the recovery option. On the pages where the markup was applied, all innovations will immediately appear.

    To begin with, I would advise turning on the section. To do this, you need to go to the “Editing information” section in order to put a tick next to the required option in its settings. For example, let it be the “News on” option, which you can rename in your own way if you wish. The initial title there will be “latest news”. Now, with my light hand, you have a section, do what you want, i.e. edit for your health!

    How to create pages

    Of course, I myself did not immediately figure out how to create separate pages for my group. Then it occurred to me, after all, to read the layout instructions on the wiki, I won’t hide this fact...)))

    For those who do not know what a page is... This is a kind of Internet element that contains information for general viewing by all users. It turned out that the pages are formed in automatic mode if you specify specific text:

    [[Article title]] or [[Article title|link text]],

    Texts are presented on pages using special characters - tags. I provide an example of tag design in the table below.

    Group Menu Layout Templates

    So, after the content topic is selected, there is required material, you are ready to create and further design the group. Choose the type of design that you like best - graphic or text display of information. For a visual demonstration, let’s take a regular text template and examples of code options:

    • Template 1.

    {|
    |-
    !
    first menu!

    |-
    | texttexttext
    |}
    |

    {|
    |-
    !
    second

    |-
    | texttexttext
    |}

    • Template 2.

    {|
    |-
    {|
    |-
    !Education
    |}
    *[[standard wiki markup]]
    *[[wiki markup extended]]
    *[]
    *[[Help]]

    {|
    |-
    !Practice
    |}
    *[[menu]]
    *[[Sandbox]]

    {|
    |-
    ![[sections]]
    |}
    *[[Icons]]
    *[[Download]]

    {|
    |-
    !About the group
    |}
    *[[News]]
    *[[About Us]]
    *[[Rules]]

    |
    {|
    |-
    !Latest news:
    |-
    []
    group website

    |}
    {|
    |-
    !Announcement!
    |-
    []

    The leadership will be recruited... from admins!
    |}
    {|
    |-
    ![[General navigation|General navigation »]]
    |}
    |}

    • Template 3.

    Wiki markup for a text menu with small icons:

    {|
    |-
    !
    [] Invite all your friends

    [] "'[[Rules]]"'

    [] Photo albums

    [] Creation

    [] Photos


    []

    |}

    As you already understood, there are only a few types of encoding templates. Use the right types of templates, and the group you create will be customized in the most in the best possible way. Of course, there is room for imagination, but for this you will have to compose the codes yourself. You will have to work a little and re-read a lot of information to learn the basic principles of constructing wiki markup codes.

    I’m saying that it’s simple, because the code begins and ends with the usual tags, and the icons inside all appear in the form of information [] with a small text to describe them.

    What are spoilers and what is their role?

    Spoilers are an object with a title, filled with content. Such objects can be hidden and shown alternately. Spoilers are necessary to hide large amounts of information, the full-screen view of which will “overload” the page with information of additional value.

    Examples of spoilers are presented in the table below.

    After working in this direction for a week or two with wiki markup, you will have your own VKontakte group!

    Wiki is a markup, in the global sense, that is tags that are used to format text on websites and allow easier access to the capabilities of the HTML language.

    Wiki - markup and SMM

    The design of posts plays a very important role in managing groups; we have already talked about this in this article.

    But among other things, your texts should be readable, this is especially true for companies with blogs or, for example, for my group on VK.

    Wiki - markup helps to design: group menu, internal pages, internal links (to video, audio, group albums) and external links from a group (to other groups, a site, an article or a person) tables, design topics, lists, headings, subheadings, text formatting, a tag to ignore part of the markup code.

    In other words, the VKontakte Wiki page is an alternative to web pages based on the rules of wiki markup. Using the VKontakte wiki pages, you can create large articles with different text formatting (bold, underlining, headings, etc.), add illustrations to them and create full-fledged videos. landing pages (landing pages), navigation menus by community and much more.

    How to create a wiki page on VKontakte?

    In order to create a wiki page for your community, you need to bring the link template into the proper form:

    vk.com/pages?oid=-XXX&p=Page-name
    where: XXX is the community ID, and Page-Title is the title of the future wiki page.

    How to find out the community ID?

    • While on home page communities, click on the link with the date and time of publication of any entry to go to the mode of viewing an individual publication;
    • A link like vk.com/community_address?w=wall-XXX_YYY will appear in the browser's address bar, where XXX is the ID of the desired community.

    Paste the created link into the search engine, as shown in the screenshot.

    When you click on the link, the interface for creating and filling a new wiki page will open.

    After creating a wiki page, do not forget to configure access rights using the “Page Access” item in the lower right corner of the interface.

    Wiki pages can be viewed and edited:

    • for everyone;
    • only to community members (in the case of private groups);
    • only to editors and community administrators;

    Access settings for a wiki page are set by community managers during the process of creating or editing it.

    How to attach a Wiki page to a post?

    To attach a wiki page to a post, copy the link to it and paste it into the entry form when creating a post - the page will be automatically attached and will be available after it is published. In addition, if you add an illustration to a post, it will become clickable: when you click on it, the user will open a wiki page, rather than a larger version of the image.

    Wiki pages

    Usually quite short posts are published on VK. A little text, photos, a couple of videos. And this format works because it corresponds to the way the majority of users consume.

    The answer is wiki posts. Not many administrators know about this format. And, as my practice shows, if the material is really high-quality, the format with a wiki page allows you to get a very good response.

    Here is one of the latest examples.

    A typical post on my blog gets 100-200 likes and 30-40 shares. And here...

    How to create wiki pages

    http://vk.com/pages?oid=-XXX&p=Page_Name

    where XXX is the ID of your public, and “Page_name” is any word or sentence that will be used to name your wiki page. Please note that it will be impossible to edit the page title later! Therefore, think over the name in advance so that you don’t have to create a new one later.

    To find out the ID of your public, go to “Page Statistics”. An address like this will open in your address bar:

    http://vk.com/stats?gid=68730272 - the last digits in the address “68730272” are the public ID.

    What is a Wiki page

    Wiki page is a page created or designed using wiki markup. This term was first proclaimed by Ward Cunningham in 1995. At that time, Internet users learned about Wikipedia. "Wiki" is translated from Hawaiian as "quick".

    Wiki page- This is an excellent alternative to regular VKontakte posts. If, when creating an advertising post, you need to enter links to various information, which is distributed across blocks in discussions, then on the wiki page it looks different. Wiki page differs from a post in that a fairly large amount of material can be combined on one page, but it will be arranged, which will make its study more convenient and faster. Usually quite small posts are created on VK. Some text content, photographs, 1-2 videos. Despite the fact that this format works well because it meets the conditions and method of consumption of the majority of users, the presentation of information is being actively improved and makes it easier for users to understand.

    What is Wiki - markup

    Wiki markupVKontakte is a specialized language that was created for the design of entertaining, educational, informational, and selling Web pages of the VK social network. Wiki is a very powerful and valuable markup language that allows you to connect VKontakte functionality with additional features and use it to uniqueize and promote groups, pages and publics.

    Wiki markup makes it possible to quickly create and embed the code of any page of a group, community or public, individually designed elements, including:

    • menu - buttons;
    • links in the form of pictures;
    • spoilers;

    How to create a wiki post on VKontakte

    Wiki post is usually used in long articles, since wiki design makes reading more convenient and easy to understand. The text is located in the center, and on the sides there are semi-darkened VKontakte interface elements. The reader concentrates on the article and is not distracted by additional excesses, which is what both the group leader and the user need. To create a quality wiki style post you will need the following elements:

    1. Create a wiki page as described earlier. Please note that the page title is the title of your post. It is the title that is indexed by search engines first.

    Once created, you can start writing text content. When writing an article or post, you must follow standard rules. Uniqueness should be high, the text should be readable and interesting, and the absence of syntactic, lexical, stylistic and grammatical errors is also welcome. All these points are very conducive to attracting readers.

    2. Create an image. The picture is the first thing your VK subscribers will pay attention to, which means that you should pay great attention to creating a high-quality image. Knowing how to correctly create a wiki post in contact, you can choose the appropriate option for creating an image.

    Let's look at the most popular image options provided for wiki posts:

    1. Image. The easiest option is to attach a photo. But this is somehow too common and simple and does not attract the current subscriber enough.
    2. Text combined with background. Text interspersed with the title of the article is a simple but attractive format where the emphasis rests on the title. If desired, you can attach an icon.
    3. Image with text. IN this format text can be superimposed on top of an image, which will immediately influence emotions and affect figurative perception.
    4. 50/50. The text takes up half the space, and the rest is taken up by the image. This type of image in a wiki post allows you to touch on imaginative thinking and concentrate on the title. Don’t forget that VKontakte wiki markup will be embedded in all pictures.

    It is worth noting that a high-quality image should contain the following aspects: a title, a logo, an image or a bright background. It is also advisable to implement a community address and an “important” button or any other call to action.

    You can use any editor to create an image. It is important to know that used images have little appeal to the modern reader. If your reputation is important to you, take the time to create a unique image.

    Creating tables using a wiki

    The table is made using a specific set of symbols, the arrangement of which must have a certain sequence. Once created, table columns can be filled with any content.

    A table that is created using Wiki markup can contain any number of rows. Attachments, columns, cells.

    Name and sequence of symbols:

    1. Start (|
    2. Title |+
    3. New line |-
    4. Transparent cell |
    5. Dark cell!
    6. End |)

    How to make a wiki menu on VKontakte

    Wiki markup is a great helper for creating a menu in a VK group. How to make wiki markup was described earlier.

    If the group implies a social direction, then it makes sense to create a text menu. Its advantage is that it is quite serious appearance. Entertainment and commercial groups have proven themselves well with graphic menu. The use of high-quality pictures in it will make it possible to draw the attention of visitors to what should be visible. Using this approach will also make the stay in the group quite pleasant and relaxing.

    What if you want to edit the quality a little, or add something? Then you need to do the following with this: you need the file to look like this - ]. Instead of the last three inscriptions, what is needed is written. Text - we write down what is needed. Link translated from English is “link”. Present so that the visitor's car knows its direction. Options - the following values ​​can be written here: Plain - the link to the image is formatted as text, it does not contain a picture. Noborder - erases the frame located next to the photo.
