So there a new UA released, and it adds the idea of multiple classes sharing a subclass.
I made a sample page just to see how the formatting would work regarding a subclass like this:
http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/bard:warlock:wizard:mage-of-lorehold-ua
I think we could just have the subclass listed next to the relevant classes, but the link is this base page.
Let me know if you think this would work!
Yeah, this is pretty much what I was just going to suggest logging on today. Link these subclasses on each of the class pages, but all of them link to the same page.
I dunno if Im a fan of the link formatting, Id have personally gone for something more like 'dnd5e.wikidot/subclass:mage-of-lorehold-ua', sorta out of a sense of 'just in case we end having to make a dedicated page to subclasses without a set class' for some reason in the future if they add more of these, but thats 100% nitpicking, because complaining about links is stupid to be honest.
Hmm, should we add like, on the subclass page something akin to spells having the classes they can be chosen by linked on their page?
Nice work
(Though actually, a dedicated page for the rules of the agnostic subclasses could be quite helpful for some ngl…)
Yeah, my only issue is the link itself, maybe something like www.dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-lorehold-ua or maybe polysubclass instead of multisubclass?
The colon I would avoid using because I believe wikidot interprets those as categories and subcategories, though I don't know if it really extends past the first one.
Hm, this is more of a sidequestion, but is it possible to make it so links redirect to other pages? Because if so, it could be quite fun, albeit not too necessary, if say the link dnd5e.wikidot.com/bard:mage-of-lorehold-ua could be entered and then youd end up at dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-lorehold-ua
It is actually, I'd have to look the code back up, but I was messing around with that at one point, i can't remember why.
I think im going to go around probably tommorow-ish and start getting all the strixhaven UA onto the site, or atleast have a start to it.
Hm, the question for link still stands. I think ill just go for the /multisubclass: as the link thing
Ill give a shot at trying to make redirects work, I think (?) I found the code for it.
The formatting that Valk dids neat, ill go for something like that. I did add a little section stating which classes it belongs to (with links to the classes because links are nice) undearneath the source section
Update:
Uh, that redirect thing?
It was suprisingly really, really easy
Like, pretty much just, well, take a look:
http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/bard:mage-of-lorehold-ua
http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-lorehold-ua
Personally, id recommend also having a physical URL link that can be clicked on within the pages aswell in case the redirect fails for some reason… Ill remember to do this in the future since well, I cant get back onto the page since the redirect works
So yeah,
Ah, the code is for anyone trying to use it in the future "[[module Redirect destination="http://www.example.com/base/"]]"
So yeah, for lorehold, the warlock, bard and wizard links are working! Ive also added them to their class pages aswell, but ive temporarily placed them within the 'Archived unearthed arcana' section because I dont really know whether they belong with the book published subclasses? I feel the category would be better as just 'Unearthed Arcana', as its kinda hard to judge when UA is and isnt archived, aside from when they get clearly replaced such as psionic sorcerer and abberant mind, or clearly abandoned like mystic. But this is a bit of a seperate topic of discussion, if you want I can move them into the normal section (but with the book coming out in a few months anyways, we'd have to move it back into archived again)
Ive finished the pages for the other 4, but I have not added them to their pages yet, due to still pondering what to do regarding the categories and where to put them. But yeah, heres the 4 other subclasses, with functioning redirects
Prismari: http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-prismari-ua
Quandrix: http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-quandrix-ua
Silverquill: http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-silverquill-ua
Witherbloom: http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/multisubclass:mage-of-witherbloom-ua
(oh yeah, I just noticed that witherblooms spell list gives you greater restoration to your spell list… at level 7… Great proofreading UA team :/)
Hey, thanks for finishing the pages for the Strixhaven subclasses. I got a bit sidetracked with life and wasn't able to complete them when I wanted to.
Yeah no worries mate, honestly I only did it now cuz I was pretty sidetracked myself heh.
I also just realised we do actually have a system for the UA thing, with using as the monks page and the dragon subclass as an example, the newest UA is in a little UA section, and anything too old is in a 'Archived UA' section.
So yeah, the subclasses should now all be visible on the pages for the classes they are available to, within a Unearthed Arcana section.
(Ah, if anyone wanted to add them to the frontpage, feel free, since i dont have editing rights for that )
