❓ Questions & Answers

Section titled “❓ Questions & Answers”

This page answers some of the most common questions asked by Restaurant Tycoon 3 Wiki editors, and some of them were asked by me when I first started editing.

If you’re stuck on something, check here before spending hours searching online—you may find the answer in just a few minutes.

🔄 How do I redirect a page?

Section titled “🔄 How do I redirect a page?”

To redirect one page to another, use:

#REDIRECT [[Target Page]]

Example

Section titled “Example”
#REDIRECT [[Build Mode]]

When someone visits the original page, they will automatically be redirected to the target page.

Tip: Redirects are useful for alternative names, spelling variations, and page renames.

📑 How do I create a Tabber?

Section titled “📑 How do I create a Tabber?”

Tabbers allow multiple sections of content to be displayed inside tabs.

Example

Section titled “Example”
<tabber>


Tab 1=
Content for the first tab.


|-|


Tab 2=
Content for the second tab.


</tabber>

Tabbers are useful when a page contains several variations of the same information without making the page unnecessarily long.

🖼️ How do I insert an image?

Section titled “🖼️ How do I insert an image?”

Images are added using the File syntax.

[[File:Example.png|300px|Example image]]

You can also add captions.

[[File:Example.png|thumb|An example image]]

🔗 How do I link to another page?

Section titled “🔗 How do I link to another page?”

Use double square brackets.

[[Restaurant]]

To display different text:

[[Restaurant|Restaurant Guide]]

🌐 How do I add an external website?

Section titled “🌐 How do I add an external website?”

Use single square brackets.

[https://example.com Example Website]

📝 How do I make text bold or italic?

Section titled “📝 How do I make text bold or italic?”

Bold

Section titled “Bold”
'''Bold Text'''

Italic

Section titled “Italic”

Bold + Italic

Section titled “Bold + Italic”

📋 How do I create bullet lists?

Section titled “📋 How do I create bullet lists?”
* Item One
* Item Two
* Item Three

Nested list:

* Main Item
** Sub Item
*** Sub Sub Item

📊 How do I create a table?

Section titled “📊 How do I create a table?”

Basic example:

{| class="wikitable"
! Name
! Type
|-
| Burger
| Food
|-
| Pizza
| Food
|}

Tables are useful for statistics, comparisons, and lists.

⚠️ Why isn’t my formatting working?

Section titled “⚠️ Why isn’t my formatting working?”

Common reasons include:

  • Missing brackets
  • Missing closing tags
  • Incorrect template syntax
  • Typing mistakes
  • Forgetting quotation marks

If something looks wrong, compare your code with a working page.

🌐 How can I use the Roblox API in wiki code?

Section titled “🌐 How can I use the Roblox API in wiki code?”

The Restaurant Tycoon 3 Wiki has access to a #robloxAPI parser function that can retrieve certain information from Roblox.

For example, it can be used to retrieve a game’s icon:

{{#robloxAPI: gameIconUrl | 119048529960596 | 256x256 }}

💾 Why should I preview before saving?

Section titled “💾 Why should I preview before saving?”

Always use Show Preview before publishing.

Previewing allows you to:

  • Catch formatting mistakes
  • Check links
  • Verify tables
  • Test templates
  • Ensure images display correctly

It is much easier to fix mistakes before saving than afterwards.
