How do I rename or move a topic?

Select the More link at the top of the topic you want to rename. The page that comes up has an option to "Rename/Move topic".

How can I make HTML source display properly in a recipe?

Surround the HTML with the <verbatim> element, e.g.:

<verbatim>
<HTML>
  <BODY>
    This wouldn't work without verbatim!
  </BODY>
</HTML>
</verbatim>

How do I delete a recipe or other topic?

First of all, be responsible and don't delete useful material. If you're sure a topic needs to be deleted, use the Rename/Move feature under the topic's More link to move it to the Trash web.

Why isn't my recipe / chapter / section showing up?

There are 3 mistakes you can make:

The item you edited isn't classified correctly (e.g. Recipe, Chapter, etc.)
The ParentTopic isn't set correctly
The TopicOrder matches the TopicOrder of another item. If two items have the same TopicOrder at a given level in the heirarchy, one of them won't be displayed.
