Community:Zelda Temple

Zelda Temple was a community website devoted to. It was originally founded under the name of Zelda Divine, and was a small site that over the course of two years sought to make a guide for every game. The original Zelda Temple was owned by MagicKeaton under the url: zeldatemple.net, but was later given to someone for some time, and eventually was handed to Yusei. Eventually after hosting issues and problems, Zelda Temple switched to its own hosting and its own url zelda-temple.net. The site went defunct not long after in February 6, 2015.

History
Back around December of 2006, Yusei was a regular around the website Zelda Legacy, owned by Killswitch. Slowly she had gained inspiration, but had no idea where to start. Upon approaching Killswitch, she was able to get hosting and with the help of then Zelda Legacy administrator Swiftblade, she created Zelda Divine on January 9th, 2007. Zelda Divine was very popular in its days, but due to hosting issues, and constant disputes over who had "rights" to having Divine in their site's name, it vanished.

Someone saw great potential in Zelda Divine and decided to give Yusei a second chance. He gave Yusei the domain and hosting that he had for Zelda Temple and paid for it for a little while. The site had an alarming growth in activity from its days as Zelda Divine.

However, Zelda Temple's popularity began to fade, and the members sought solace in a merge with Forsaken Legend, run by Lord of the Twilight. The merge proved to be full of rising tensions, and the two webmasters eventually parted ways and went to their own sites again. Zelda Temple was rebirthed after that, and was briefly hosted by Zelda Oracles before moving to the current hosting and domain name.

In March 2009, Zelda Temple was given the Golden Ocarina a Golden Item Award given by Darth Citrus of Exploding Deku Nut to a small, young site that shows promise in the community. It was previously nominated for the award a year prior, only losing to Zelda Capital.

On April 16, 2009, Zelda Temple became a Mastermind of Zelda Wiki. Yusei and Zelda Hunter served to help the wiki with grammar mistakes or adding onto pages in the wiki.

That same year on May 1, Yusei decided to hire a new webmaster to help her with Zelda Temple, as soon it would be her time when life comes and gets in the way. She hired Zelda Hunter, a member of the forum who has been with the forums since Eternal Hyrule, the merged forum name of Zelda Temple and Forsaken Legend, and had been loyal to the site. He became the webmaster and aided the site and the forums alike. The effort would pay off, as on June 13, 2009, Zelda Temple was given the "Best Designed" award from Ordon Village. This was based on previous layouts before version 7.

On August 11, 2009, Zelda Temple would leave Zelda Wiki due to certain issues between the Masterminds and Yusei, herself. A year later, on September 5, 2010, Zelda Temple once again became a Mastermind for Zelda Wiki.

Zelda Temple once hosted Fire Emblem Wiki from August 26, 2010 to February 2011. The website was later given independence and was subsequently made a member of the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance.

Community Forums
Currently, Zelda Temple forums are on a vBulletin forum, which grow larger with each passing day.

Over the course of its lifetime after being split from Forsaken Legend, Zelda Temple went through many of forum systems, each with their own pros and cons. First was PHPBB3 which was nice, but the styling was a bit hard, as well installing mods was hard. Then it went to IPB for a time, but that also went away with the lack of an easy way to make skins. Then we went to SMF, which had a decent amount of good mods, but lack of good themes and it was VERY HARD to make a custom theme not based on the default theme. Burning Boards forum system had very little English support, but the theme system was nice. MyBB was the best of the forum systems, although well behind the current Vbulletin forum. The MyBB forum was easy to make themes, and the owner, Yusei, had made two themes on it: Green Forest and Dark Forest (a brownish theme skin). The current Vbulletin one is still being worked on in terms of themes, but in the near future, will be just like the MyBB forum and will have it's own theme and not some free download one.

The SeVIIenth Fantasy
The SeVIIenth Fantasy (shortened to TSF) is a game being developed by Tin_Man, an administrator of the Zelda Temple forums, as well as co-webmaster.

Ganondorf the Gerudo King of Thieves attempts to steal Hyrule's "Fantasy", the guardian artifact in that realm which governs and keeps the realm stable. Link is unable to stop Ganondorf and Ganon steals the Fantasy. As well, in Gaia, Sephiroth steals Gaia's Fantasy. Four others are stolen as well and the realms falter and collide into one another creating a seventh realm... as well as a Seventh Fantasy. This Seventh Fantasy then acts as a failsafe to prevent the six realms from completely falling apart and only keeps them together until the six other Fantasies are brought back together to their respective realms.
