>yall gave the link to building with blocks, and it says  "In the image above, you can see many of the different building blocks that you can create out of quartzite, as well as multiple texture variations for each. In addition to regular blocks, you can also see roof blocks, stair blocks, wall blocks, pillars, slabs, and beams. Keep reading to find out more about how each of these are used!"

why are all Quartzite blocks being called sandstone?

I am unsure of the difficulty of getting this done, but I would really appreciate the ability to tick a box to not get emails from the site. Notifications here suffice, and when I load up my email to find thirty emails saying my wiki submission was approved, it gets kinda annoying. 

I do not want emails from Hytale guide

Yes, I know I am pestering you two with a plethora of suggestions. This is just one I want to put out there - if possible, I'd like in the future if the forum could be more similar to most forums I see - ie, they're a thread, rather than a post with comments on it. Don't know what goes into implementing that, or what difficulties you'd encounter especially in converting old threads - but it definitely would be desired.

Again, move at the pace that y'all can manage, we're just here to have fun as we wait for the game to come out.

Some forum changes

Before I go into my suggestions for wiki entries, I would like to say that I have really been enjoying using this site as a way to get and spread Hytale information!

My first suggestion for the Wiki is that there should be a way to see why our submission was denied either through email or when we click on our submission. For example, my submission was denied on the Polar Bear section, and it would be really useful to have feedback on what we need to change for it to be accepted; for example, it would be useful if I could know "Oh, it was denied because I the photo I added was more about Penguins than Polar Bears," so that I could go back and add the text that I had added in that entry.

My second suggestion for the Wiki is to be able to edit a submission or make sure that entries do not override each other. For example, I had submitted an entry for the Pine Forest section to add a higher-res photo. Sometime later (before it was accepted) I wanted to add another bit of information, but the second entry had overridden the entry with the photos. This brings me to the point that there should be a way to either edit submissions before they are approved or add the feature that when a Wiki entry is submitted, only the sections that had been touched should be changed.

Thank you for reading (and sorry if I wasn't able to make the points clearly)!

First of all, great job with this forum! Really love the clean aesthetic!

First thing that I noticed was that the YouTube linking feature doesn't work correctly, would take a look at that to make sure people can paste their channel links in there more easily. Second thing that would be nice is a YouTube video Embed feature, that either allows people to watch the video from this forum itself, or that at least shows the thumbnail on the site.  Thirdly, an "edit post" button would be great, I make a lot of typos lol.

I have a lot more ideas for features for Content Creators that may help you guys get more activity on here, so feel free to message me on discord!  Can't wait to see where this site goes!

Forum Changes and Additions for Content Creators

So I'm not exactly sure what my suggestion is. I'm not sure if its exactly the title I put down for this thread. Basically, I've been feeling like for awhile there should be a more concentrated category on the wiki for stuff to do with the lore, separate from all the pages on gameplay elements. 

Mostly this a response to seeing that Gaia and Varyn are currently categorized as mobs - which feels kind of weird. I think that having a category that has pages for important lore characters, stuff like a history of orbis, things about factions, etc, would be good.

There should be a new category for lore stuff

While I'm aware that this one is on the radar of the devs, I think it's important to make a proper note of it. Wiki entries need the ability to be renamed. At present, the pages for silversteel blade (incorrectly named platinum sword) and the quartize blocks (incorrectly labelled sandstone) cannot be changed, and such a thing would be an issue going forward, as more information is revealled and the names of things are shown to be wrong.

Editing Wiki Page Titles

If possible, I think this would be a good addition. It would be interesting information for some, but I think it would also be a good way to moderate the wiki, so that people who aren't staff can look at newer pages, and help to make sure they're up to snuff.

Add new submissions section to the wiki

I've noticed on the wiki that comments are sorted with the most recent at the bottom - this feels odd, and I think that it should be reversed.

Re - sort comments

I'm not sure if this is viewable on a higher level of moderation, but from my first steps in modifying wiki entries, I'm realizing that it would be very helpful to see an editing history - if someone filled the page with absolute nonsense, it would be nice to know who to blame, for example.

Not sure how robust the website foundation is though, if it isn't capable of doing things like showing past edits.
