Why would a member type {citem:xxxxxx} instead of {bitem:xxxxxx}. It might sound confusing, but it's really very simple.

Here at WDC, we have many, many different ways to create item links. Most of us learn with the simple bitem link:

{bitem:1774430} will show,
ID: 1774430   (Rated: E)

I like to use the citem (clean item) link...

{citem:1774430} will show,

As you can see, there's not really that much of a difference. So, use whichever format you happen to like the best. They are both correct links. Smile


Here are a BUNCH of other ways to make links. Most of us will hardly ever use too many of them...

~~Basic item link - {item:1774430}

To show an image, of course, you would type {image:1774732}
Some images (like this one) are set so that if you click on them, you will be taken to an item.
That's one more way to link to an item
