Schedules

You must be on a computer to follow these instructions. You cannot follow these instructions on your phone.

1. If you don't already have one, create a GitHub account

2. Fork the Schedules configuration repository

   • A "fork" is a copy of a repository
   • A repository is essentially a giant folder

3. Go into the folder helpcenter-topics and click Add file then Create new file

4. Create an ID for your topic and set it as the filename

   • The ID should be all lowercase and have no spaces. Instead of spaces, use dashes (-).
   • Example: This help topic has the ID add-topic and the installation topic has the ID of install.

5. Add content

   • You can look at this topic's and the installation's topic's content in the repository

6. Commit your changes

7. Go into the root folder and edit the helpcenter-topics.json

8. At the bottom of the file, before the last curly brace (}), add the following:

   {
       "id": "[topic ID]",
       "name": "[topic name]",
       "description": "[topic description]",
       "videoLink": null
   }
   

   • Replace [topic ID] with the ID you created in step 4, and come up with a name and description for your topic
   • Make sure to put a comma at the end of the previous curly brace

9. Commit your changes at the bottom

10. Click on the Pull requests tab

11. Click New pull request

12. Make sure the base repository is set to hkamran80/schedules-configuration, the base is main, and the head repository is [your GitHub username]/schedules-configuration
