Thread:Project:Support desk/Sidebar/Navigation menu troubles.

I am new at using MediaWiki and I'm having some Sidebar/Navigational menu troubles. I am trying to add a permanent link to the navigation menu and it just isn't doing it. I am using Mediawiki V1.6.12 and when I add a link to the menu from /index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&action=edit it will only show the new link on that page and the page that it is linking to.

I'm following EXACTLY what they are wanting me to do on the FAQ (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Navigation_bar) but it still isn't working. This is very irritating ad I'm done trying to figure it out myself. Could someone possibly tell me what I'm doing wrong?

All help is much appreciated :)
