Usage
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Format TemplateData in articles based on its TemplateData.
TemplateData for Format TemplateData
This template formats TemplateData nicely on doc pages. It hides irrelevant information such as "Default: empty", and allows the use of formatting. Remember that the users of VisualEditor will not see this formatting; it is important to test your new TemplateData in VisualEditor to check that it makes sense without. (For all details of formatting available, see the template's page.) By default, {{tl|TemplateData header}} is automatically inserted before the table.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| JSON template information | JSON1 | The code that would normally be wrapped in <templatedata> tags (not including the <templatedata> tags themselves. Links and basic text formatting should just work in the displayed table; see this template's page for full details. You should use HTML entities for special characters such as <>. Formatting options
| String | optional |
| Show table of contents | TOC | If set to 1, inserts a table of contents for the whole page just after the description and before any parameter table.
| Boolean | suggested |
| Show TemplateDataHeader | header | If set to 0, hides the TemplateDataHeader template. This is not generally recommended.
| Boolean | optional |
| Prevent TemplateData output | lazy | If set, other than to 0, prevents any real TemplateData being produced. Potentially useful if there are multiple instances of this template on a page but only one should be active. To clarify, this means that this template will not be understood by VisualEditor.
| Boolean | optional |
Using the template
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]The easiest way to using the template might be enclosing the <templatedata> tags in a pair of HTML comments like <!--<templatedata> ... </templatedata>-->. This way, the "Manage TemplateData" editor can still pick up on the data, but the rendering is passed down to this template to do.
