How to export pages from the wiki?

Post by momom2 »

On https://wiki.wesnoth.org/Special:Export, you can "Add page from category" and "Add pages manually" but I have no idea how that works.
Suggestion: There should be an example of the expected format on that page.
I tried various things (e.g. TerrainWMl, "TerrainWML", https://wiki.wesnoth.org/TerrainWML, Special:Export/TerrainWML), nothing obvious works.

A few weeks ago, I managed to download several pages together in one html doc, but for the life of me I can't remember how I did it! It's a page whose source I cannot see, so I can't figure out from looking at the code either.
Copying each source one page at a time is a hassle, and the ability to have them in a single doc is pretty useful so I'd much rather figure out how that worked.

If I type TerrainWML in the box it works for me.

Does this link work for you?

Okay, I tried it again and it worked perfectly, including for exporting multiple pages at a time. No idea what happened, what I was doing wrong or what, but it's working now, so... Okay.
Thanks for your help.
