Template:Trainz-page
 |
This page is part of Wikibooks Trainz Wikibook Administration. • It lists a template which may be useful editing Trainz. Trainz specific (special purpose) templates will be found in or under Category:Trainz Templates, which also lists/links to this Help page. The action of this template is hidden until it is placed on a page. |
- purpose
A page to page navigation template which will operate properly with sub-pages (Chapters) and Sub-sub-pages too.
- Usage
This is a custom version of the Wikibook general {{Chapter navigation}} template and operates similarly but
- instead of assuming it NEEDs to form a link inside '[[' and ']]' instead works successfully with Trainz Linking Templates, (all of which may be pipetricked giving a neater appearance).
- Further, it does not assume the page must be on the wiki, for giving a {{N3V}} or {{wp}} template call should link offsite just as do the TXX linking templates.
- Syntax
{{Trainz-page| Template1 | Template2 }}
or
{{Trainz-page|prev= Template1 |next= Template2 }}
Like {{Chapter navigation}} this template defaults to auto-categorizing a page to Category:Book:Trainz using the {{BASEPAGENAME}} magic word. This may be overridden to a sub-category by giving a third pass parameter:
{{Trainz-page| Template1 | Template2 |header-TOC |right-hand header TOC |cat=name}}
or
{{Trainz-page
| p = Template1
| n = Template2
| h = Template3
|rh = Template4
|cat=category name
}}
The latter form is useful for cutting and pasting page to page in a threaded discourse of sections, or topics level pages, obviously.
- Letting the template default to Category:Book:Trainz is discouraged. Use the book divisions category:Trainz AM&C, category:Trainz references, category:Trainz appendixes, category:Trainz Content Creation, category:Introductory Trainz, category:Trainz scripting and ... category:Trainz Whatever
Note, the bottom of this template and it's functionality are being incorporated into the Page HEADER templates on 2014-0901 & 02, using instead p=, n=, h=, and rh= the latter two allowing an up or down link or both, the rh defaulting to the Trainz TOC page as does the center of this template.
