I've done the right kind of formatting, but it doesn't show as a folder. Can someone help me?

Can you link the page?

Is it exactly like it appears on all other pages with working folders?

Is it very large? Folders break when they're too large.

There is no folder code on that page. The [AC:] markup does not create folders; it creates asscaps section headers.

Check out Text-Formatting Rules. Folders are at the first item discussed.

Having a similar problem here; https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/LittleShopOfHorrors

All but two of them are showing up as folders. Can't work out what's wrong or how to fix it.

[up] Those last two had / after “folder” In the code instead of a colon.

I'm having my own problems with folders. Case and point: Look for yourself

[up] I don't see any problems, except that the article is a stub and will be cut without trope examples.

It has to say [[folder:Hosts]]; the capitalization affects the code.

Edit: also, the page is full of Zero-Context Examples. That needs fixing.

It hasn't been mentioned, but you also have to close the folder tag for it to work.

As such:

[[folder:My Folder]] All the shit you want to put in said folder [[/folder]]

becomes

    My Folder 
All the shit you want to put in said folder
