## How to add or remove a merchant
### Add a merchant
If you want to add a merchant you should first open an issue using the ['New Merchant' template](https://github.com/monero-project/monero-site/issues/new?assignees=&labels=%F0%9F%8F%AA+merchant:+removal%2C+%F0%9F%94%8D+Needs+investigation&template=new-merchant.md&title=Remove+%3CNAME_OF_THE_MECHANT%3E+from+the+list+of+merchants). Fill upp all sections and wait for somebody to investigate it.
After the issue has been accepted, the merchant can be added to the page.
To add a merchant (after it has been approved) follow these steps:
Navigate to the `/_data/` folder and open `merchants.yml`. You will notice a list separated by hyphenated `-category` tags.
Find the category that best describes your business/service and copy the code below, making sure you are keeping the alphabetic order consistent:
```
- name:
url:
```
and paste it in the correct category under the `merchants:` section. Make sure to respect the alphabetical order of the entries.
Fill in the data as follows:
- `name:` The name of the business/service.
- `url:` The external url of the business/service. This link must have http:// (or https://) at the beginning if it is an external link.
Make sure the indentation is EXACTLY the same as the other proposals in the area. If it's not the jekyll build WILL fail.
### Remove a merchant
Open an issue using the ['Remove Merchant' template](https://github.com/monero-project/monero-site/issues/new?assignees=&labels=%F0%9F%8F%AA+merchant%3A+removal%2C+%F0%9F%94%8D+Needs+investigation&template=remove-merchant.md&title=Remove+%3CNAME_OF_THE_MECHANT%3E+from+the+list+of+merchants) and fill up all sections.

The structure of the FAQ is a bit more complex than it used to be and contains anchors, variables and a TOC. A step by step guide would be too complex to follow. A basic knowledge of HTML is necessary to edit the page. If you wish to add a new FAQ please open an issue in the repository or/and contact the Website workgroup.
