Q. Can I use HTML to create or edit my Wetpaint site?

A. You cannot directly edit in HTML, but you can embed HTML documents into your wiki with an IFRAME tag:

  1. Create the HTML document with your preferred HTML editor (e.g. Notepad, TextEdit) and save it on your desktop.

  2. Upload the document as an attachment to your Wiki.

  3. Go to the page you want to add the HTML to, and click the EasyEdit button.

  4. Select the "Widget" button, and choose "Other Widget" from the dialogue box that comes up.

  5. Type the following code into the box:

    <iframe frameborder="0" height="600" src="ATTACHMENT URL HERE"; target="_blank" align="center" width="600" scrolling="Auto"; bgcolor="#C9D3DE"> </iframe>

  6. Click okay, and exit out of EasyEdit. You should see your embedded HTML document on the page.

Note: If you're trying to put the above on your profile, you will see there is no 'Other Widget' option avaliable. Read this Workaround for a fix.


Q. Can I alter the Wetpaint CSS file to create my own customized look?

A. No. You can choose from the 24 site templates offered by Wetpaint to use for the look of your site. You are, however, able to customize the masthead space of your site with a logo or image file (.jpg, .gif, .png formats are supported).

Whenever I click on the widget box, I never have the "other widget" option. How do I get it?

Kitruk 'Other widget' (for iframe)? Where's that 2 Mar 3 2010, 10:47 AM EST by Kitruk

The HTML & CSS instructions say: '4 Select the "widget" button, and choose "other widget" from the dialogue box that comes up.' - Yet there is no 'other widget' in the dialogue box.

So how do I make an iframe
