This is a ShoutWiki help page, hosted at ShoutWiki Hub. If you want to suggest changes, leave a message on its talk page. If you want to replace this page with a custom help page for your wiki, click the create button above.

Creating a ShoutWiki account is simple, easy and free. It also offers a lot of additional features that are available only to registered users.

What features are available to registered users?

  • A username of your choice - it's much easier to remember the name "Peter" than the IP address 257.85.34.60
  • Your very own userpage
  • Ability to change the display language from the site's default
  • Personal watchlist - track changes of your favorite articles
  • Single sign-on to all public wikis
  • Ability to upload media onto the wiki
  • User subpages
  • Ability to customize the appearance of the site - you can change background color, text color and such things with CSS
  • Many different skins (layouts/themes) to choose from
  • An account hides your IP address from other users of the wiki
