This is the {{tlp}} template.
Here is how this template looks. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:
{{tlp|name|parameters}}= {{name|parameters}}
Features of {{tlp}}:
- It shows a template name and up to eight parameters.
- It also shows empty parameters. (See examples below.)
- It prevents line wraps in its output.
Examples
| Code | Result | Comment |
|---|---|---|
{{tlp}} | {{Template:Template link with parameters/doc}} | Shows its own syntax. |
{{tlp|name}} | {{name}} | |
{{tlp|name|one}} | {{name|one}} | |
{{tlp|name|one|two}} | {{name|one|two}} | |
{{tlp|name|a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h|i|j}} | {{name|a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h|i}} | Shows up to eight parameters. The rest are dropped. |
{{tlp|name|three|four}} | {{name|three|four}} | Also shows empty parameters. |
{{tlp|name|three}} | {{name|three}} | Even shows empty parameters that come in the end. |
{{tlp|one=a|two=b}} | {{name}} | Equal signs is a problem, but there is a fix. |
{{tlp|name|2=one=a|3=two=b}} | {{name|one=a|two=b}} | Use numbered parameters to fix it. Remember to start from 2, since the "name" is number 1. |
If you have equal signs in your template parameters then some find it simpler to code it using <nowiki> tags. Here's how to do that. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:
{{tlp|name|<nowiki>one=a|two=b</nowiki>}}= {{name|one=a|two=b}}
