Namespaces
Should the fact that any page can be used as a template be mentioned, or should it remain undocumented magic? -- Duesentrieb 16:35, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Confused
Ok I cant seem to work out how this thing works at all, I try and copy and paste the code here and it dont work. what am i doing wrong?

Thats what I put for a test template and all i get is the title come up Object

Any ideas

Re:Confused
Templates works only as transformation. In your wiki you have to create Template:Object page if you want to use template named Object, try something more simple as first template.

I think this help is well understandable. Maybe another example will be good for you.

In your wiki edit page www.yourdomain.com/wiki/Template:first Write there something like: Your first argument: Your second argument:

save the page (stop editing)

somewhere in your wiki edit some another page and insert here code: It was not working without 1= and 2= for me in wiki 1.9.3 (bug)

when you try preview now, you will see: Your first argument:text1 Your second argument:text2

I hope it's clear now, from template page will be replaced with everything what is after 1=

Templates with/for images
How would I create a template where I pass only the name of an image (e.g. 'picture01.png'), and within the template this name is transformed into something like ?

Going one step further, I want to do it the 'Semantic MediaWiki' way, ie. again pass only the name of the image, and the template does the rest, ie.


 * assign the parameter ( ImageName:= )
 * expand this to [[Image:[[ImageName:=]]|150px|]]

Unfortunately like this it doesn't work. 85.125.230.177 15:53, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Templates inside parameters
At my wiki I have a template called Shape and a template called R strange. The original intention was to put inside the Shape template, but writing  doesn't work, rather it makes it be interpreted as. Is there any way to nest templates like this?

If not, I'll likely have to do some crazy positioning stuff with CSS.

 * It's because of the "!" at the beginning of that line. Replace it with "|" and you'll be happy ;-)

Default templates?
Is it possible to create a template that is instantiated automatically without the user's intervention?

I've got a family wiki that many people edit. I'd like pages created from one particular page to all automatically start with a template. It's a collection of recipes. The procedure is to add the name to that page. When they link to the new page, I'd like it to automatically start with a default recipe format...

Thanks! (twinotter) 165.219.245.62 19:12, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
 * That goes beyond templates and into boilerplates, or parameterized templates. Using templates this way actually makes your pages harder for your users to edit. At that point, you might be better off with a specialized PHP page. My recommendation is to do a standard page header template and show your users how to use it. -Slamlander 05:23, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Quick installer, perhaps?
If one were to install MediaWiki on their server, is there a chance there's an installer that comes with a bunch of templates? If so, a link to such a program would be nice. - Ahren 1:46 EST

Optional Fields?
As my question pertains to template use, I suppose this is where it goes. Is there a code for optional fields in a template? For example (Code I use is below): Say I want it set so that rank does not appear, if the field is not filled in, how does one do that? Thanks for any help someone can give.

First, make sure you have the parser functions [] installed and working. Then you can do the following; Give that a try and let us know if you got it working =)

Infobox class??
I've just installed my first wiki - 1.10.1 and trying to setup some Infobox templates. The problem is there seems to be no Infobox class defined anymore? The various files I find online that have it, such as monobook.css and common.css seem to be competely different to the css files in the 1.10.1 package. I'm guessing something has changed quite dramatically in recent versions? What am I missing? --DJS68 02:09, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Templates Outside the Template Namespace
I just felt like sharing this:
 * Any page that has data in it can be used as if it were a template. Just enclose the page title in double curlies like so:
 * This would import expand this page into on whatever page you were editing.
 * A special addition needs to be made if you are trying to use a page from the "(Main)" namespace since a call to:
 * is equivalent to a call to:
 * If the page you want to use as a template is in the "(Main)" namespace, you must precede the page name with a colon like this:

Templates Args
Any best practices advice or example for dealing with unnamed template parameters? And possibly mixed ones? I would like to be able to write a template like this the following. And easily access the unnamed parameters. Using the variable and control structure extensions to for/while loop through the } to manufacture a "argv[]/argc" was the best I can come up with, but it seems to be a pretty intensive.

Template Overload
Hi there, I have got a question: We have some templates which we use A LOT, even A LOT on one single page. It has an ID as parameter and outputs an icon + a text.

How do the Wikipedia Template: Cite book and Template: Cite work?
I'd like this in conjunction with my wiki page... but currently I can't figure out the implementation.--66.214.128.163 17:08, 2 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hmmm wikipedia:Template:Cite and wikipedia:Template:Cite book hey? Use the 'view source' tab to see their wiki text.
 * You should just be able to create a page called "Template:cite" on your own wiki and put in the follow wikitext:
 *  , , ,  .  


 * ...to get a similar effect. I've missed of the 'noinclude' documentation section which is not necessary, and makes it more complicated. (it uses another template "wikipedia:Template:Documentation" to transclude documentation from a sub-page)


 * Now the 'Cite book' template is more tricky. I think it's using a parser extension. Probably Extension:Cite/Special:Cite.php, which you would have to install on your wiki, if you wanted it to work in exactly the same way. You can probably think of a more simplistic way of acheiving what you need though.
 * Templates on wikipedia tend to be rather more complicated than they need to be, and certainly not designed to make it easy to copy them. I was thinking actually we could kick off a project similar to Project:PD help, but for supplying a simple bunch of standard tempates for a new wiki installation.

Templates inside parameters
Hi, I'd like in my wiki a structure like:

In other words to use use a template as parameter of another template call.

Special characters as template parameters
Hi, I'm trying to write a template in wikibooks (MediaWiki 1.14alpha &mdash; r44990) which needs to accept "special characters" as parameters, like: '*', ';', '='... (see delimiters list). I'm trying something like this (see template:Ada/delimiter):

Ada Programming/Delimiters/

However, some invocations work (e.g. with &</tt>, '</tt>, +</tt>...), but others don't (e.g. *</tt>, ;</tt>, :</tt>...). In the cases that don't work directly, sometimes it works using the HTML entity (e.g. &amp;#42;</tt> for *</tt>), sometimes when using the named parameter ( </tt> for '/=' delimiter). Can I write something in the switch for not havin to use the HTML entity or the named parameter? Thanks! &mdash;surue&ntilde;a 23:03, 29 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Done, I've just to remove the default case. Of course, for those delimiters containing a '=' named parameter should be used ( </tt> for '/=' delimiter), and the html number (&amp;#124;) should be used for the | character (or the ! template). But, does the need to remove the default case for the '*', ';'... parameters can be considered a bug? Thanks! &mdash;surue&ntilde;a 12:34, 30 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Arrg, it doesn't work yet! The problem is that the switch returns void for several values, including when the text contains a '='. I read it in the documentation this behavior of #switch:, any plan to allow it when using an html number entity? Thanks &mdash;surue&ntilde;a 12:54, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Unknown Number of Variables beforehand

Thanks.

Heading level and templates
How can I make a template where the heading level matches the page it is included on? For example, if the template is included under a level 1 heading, headings on the template would be level 2. If it was included under a level 2 heading, the headings on the template would be level 3.

Remove braced variables from article?
Is it possible, in a way other than removing the variable from the article, to remove the triple-braced template variable from articles when the variable has not been specified?
 * I assume you mean that when, say, the second parameter isn't supplied, you'd rather not have displayed in the article that included the template. Correct? If so, just give the parameter an empty default value in the template. Use  rather than  when referencing the parameter in the template. --Vjg 16:03, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Blank Default Parameters
This seems like a simple question but from all my googling I can't figure out an answer. How can I give a named parameter an empty default value, so that if someone using my template does not fill in every parameter, the undefined parameters simply don't show up?

Example: In my template there is a named parameter,, which creates a link to an internal page named Subcategory (or whatever is defined by the template user). Right now, if no subcategory is defined, shows up on the page. How can I make it so that nothing shows up if the Subcategory 1 parameter is left undefined?

I appreciate any help, have pity on a Mediawiki newbie!

I Am UTTERLY Thick
Even with all the excellent documentation I have not been able to make the TOClimit template work on my site. I have tried over and over again, but nothing has worked yet. I am sure the problem is not with a lack of instructions but rather my utter lack of intelligence.

Template Above Title - and possible lock
Hi, I have created a template with a Padlock to go on semi and full protected pages. It currently goes under the title, and I am wondering how I get it to go above (like Wikipedia). Also, if possible, is there a way that only Admins can add this template to pages. Thanks in Advance.

Defining parameters
Can one define a parameter within the Template? With a #switch function (for example) one can define an outcome, but I will want to use that outcome again and again in the Template without putting the whole #switch thing in again.

For example, a #switch on a parameter might have result options France=French | Germany=German | Austria=German etc, but what if I want to take the result ("French", "German" etc) and use it elsewhere? I ought to be able to say something along the lines "=X".

In VB one must "Dim" a variable, and then having given it a value and that variable can be used as often as you like. From what I have read, the only way I can think of doing it is to have a series of shell templates to hold the value and then feed it back. That cannot be right. I must have missed a trick.

 * Yes, you're right about CSS not being the cause. It seems that your wiki is not allowing the use of the &lt;tr&gt;</tt> and &lt;th&gt;</tt> HTML tags, although in principle they should be allowed. Check {{meta|Help:HTML_in_wikitext}} for more details on this. I tried in your wiki to change the HTML tags to the WikiText equivalent; for example, replacing the line
 * <th class="mbox-text" style="text-align:left; padding:1px;">{{
 * in the template, by
 * ! class="mbox-text" style="text-align:left; padding:1px;" |{{
 * (notice the |</tt> before the  {{ </tt>) should produce the adequate <tt>&lt;tr&gt;</tt> and <tt>&lt;th&gt;</tt> HTML tags in the output instead of <tt>&amp;lt;tr&amp;gt;&amp;lt;th&amp;gt;</tt>. But your wiki just went down and became unavailable, so I couldn't test replacing the rest. Anyway, do you see where I'm going with this? Maybe you can try replacing the rest of them for the WikiText equivalent; the thing is, if in wikipedia the template is using the HTML tags instead of the WikiText, they're probably doing something funky that may not be possible to achieve with WikiText. So, the proper solution is to figure out why your wiki is not allowing the <tt>&lt;tr&gt;</tt> and <tt>&lt;th&gt;</tt> HTML tags in the first place. But I'm at the limits of my knowledge there. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable will read this and help. Hamilton Abreu 01:23, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Searchable template content?
I'm using templates to help format the content on my wiki, but I'm having a hard time figuring out a way to enable a user to search the content of what is entered into the template.

For example:

When using the search bar, "want to search for this" doesn't bring up any search results. Is there anyway that I can let mediawiki search template content?

Cheers, Chan.mike 13:11, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * By default, only a few namespaces are searched (usually the principal namespace and maybe a few others, depending on the wiki). Near the top of the page of the search results, there should be a box that allows you to select which namespaces to search. Select 'custom', press the button to deselect all boxes, select box "Template" and search again. Hamilton Abreu 22:36, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, keep in mind that in your example "want to search for this" should not be found within the template itself, unless that string explicitly appears in the template code. Hamilton Abreu 22:38, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Space delimiter in external links causing issue in template.
Observe the following in a template I named Template:Tutorial/General, template follows: This is a general tutorial about .

For further information see [ ] (Extra line breaks added to improve clarity). To explain what I want this template to do:

I want it to accept 3 parameters: url, url-description &amp; tutorial-description

Example: Now, in the case of the example, it works just fine. However, if I create a new page and chose to omit the parameters it only works fine (using as tutorial-description, Google's search page as url and  as external link name if the new page contains no spaces. If it contains a space the template breaks. This is obviously because the delimiter between link and name for external links actually is a space. I tried fiddling a bit with parser functions but ended up facing the same issue - the first space found between external link and link name breaking the template. If I create a new page Foo Bar with content  it parses to This is a general tutorial about Foo Bar. For further information see Bar Foo Bar on Google.

Using another page or template as parameters?
This may be covered as a Semantic MediaWiki situation, but I'm asking here, in case it's not...

I have a set of pages where one page is to be a summary of the other pages; the content on the other pages will be the same as on the summary page, and I would like to draw the details for the summary and the detail pages from the same location.

I'm thinking something like this: For the summary page, and on the data points page

Another way of looking at this, is that I'd like to show the same *data points* with different structure on different pages.

Suggestions? Please go easy on me, I've only been playing with Wiki for less than a month! :)

 * See m:Help:Template for extracting parts of a page to be used in another page. The common text can also be put in separate templates, to be used in different pages. To show data in a different way on different pages requires either putting each part in a different template, or combining data in such a way that subdata can be extracted, see m:Help:Array.--Patrick 12:34, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Is there any script to create sub template in a template
