{{tlx}}

This template uses Lua:

Module:Template link general

This template, often abbreviated as {{tlx}}, is used to provide stylized formatting to template displays without actually using the template itself.

Parameters[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

With the exception of alttext, the named parameters are toggles that are either omitted (default in most cases) or activated (by being assigned a value such as "on", "yes", "true", "include", etc.). They may be included in any order (see Examples below). Certain templates have the parameter "on" by default; see the main table for all alternate options.

Parameter	Action	Use with {{example}}	Default active
brace	Include braces as part of the template link	{{example}}	{{tlw}}/{{tn}}
braceinside	Include innermost braces as part of the template link	{{example}}
bold	Renders the template link/name in bold	{{example}}	{{tlb}}, {{tlxb}}
code	Display output using HTML `<code>...</code>` tags (monospaced font)	`{{example}}`	{{tlc}}, {{Template link expanded}}, etc.
italic	Display any parameters accompanying the template link/name in italics	{{example\|param}}	{{tlxi}}
kbd	Display output using HTML `<kbd>...</kbd>` tags (monospaced font)	`{{example}}`
nolink	Don't render the template name as a link	{{example}}	{{tlf}}, {{tlc}}, {{tnull}}
nowrap	Prevent the insertion of line breaks (word wrap) in the output	{{example}}
nowrapname	Prevent word wrapping in the output of template name/link (parameters will wrap if needed)	{{example}}
plaincode	Uses `<code style="border:none; background:transparent;">...</code>`	`{{example}}`	{{tltss}}
subst	Include a subst: prefix before the template link/name	{{subst:example}}	{{tls}}, {{tlxs}}, etc
`\|alttext=[text]`	Use [text] as the label for the template link	{{Other}}	{{tla}}

Unnamed (Positional)[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

This template can take any number of unnamed parameters as parameters accompanying the template link (or name); see Examples below.

Examples[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

Note: On the source sister projects, en.wikipedia and Meta, X0, X1, X2, …, X9 are sandbox templates for experimentation on involved templates that need be in template space. An auto-cleansing software facility exists that might be used to duplicate the facility on other Sister projects.

Wrapping of long names (`nowrap=on`)
Code	Output
`{{tlx\|nowrap=on\|long template name that would wrap to new line\|long value for the 1st parameter that would wrap}}`	`{{long template name that would wrap to new line\|long value for the 1st parameter that would wrap}}`

Wrapping of long names (`nowrapname=on`)
Code	Output
`{{tlx\|nowrapname=on\|long template name that would wrap to new line\|long value for the 1st parameter that would wrap}}`	`{{long template name that would wrap to new line\|long value for the 1st parameter that would wrap}}`

Comparison of template-linking templates according to their style

Text style ↓	↓ `{{tlg}}` options¹ →	DEFAULT	`nolink=yes`	`subst=yes`	`braceinside=yes`	`alttext=Foo` `2=Foo`

¹ `{{tlg}}` is the most general, allowing any combination of text style and/or link style options. ² Prevents wrapping of text by placing it inside `<span class="nowrap">...</span>` tags. ³ Allows links to templates in any namespace. ⁴ `{{tlg\|plaincode=yes}}` uses `<code style="border:none; background-color:transparent;">...</code>`. ⁵ Displays monospaced font using `<kbd>...</kbd>` tags (changed from `<tt>...</tt>` for HTML 5 compliance). ⁶ Displays monospaced font using `<span style="font-family:monospace;">...</span>`.
