ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Random portal component

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses Lua:

Module:Random portal component

This template generates a box for a portal home page. The content is drawn randomly from a pre-defined list.

Layout

{{Random portal component
 |max      =
 |header   =
 |footer   =
 |subpage  = 
 |rootpage =
}}

Usage

header: (Optional) The header text of the box. If no header is passed to the template, the default is the subpage name.
footer: (Optional) The footer text in the box. E.g. Nominations for selected picture.
rootpage: (Optional) The root of the transcluded page, e.g. Portal:Foo.
subpage: The subpage of the transcluded page, e.g. Selected picture.
max: The maximum number of sub-subpages. Must be a positive integer.

Formatting subpages

Create a sub-page first. If your portal is Portal:Foo, then a sub-page could be Portal:Foo/Selected bar.
On the Portal:Foo/Selected bar sub-page, place the template {{numbered subpages}} on the page and save it. The template will default to 50 subject sub-pages, however you can also use {{25 Numbered subpages}} or {{75 Numbered subpages}} for more or less sub-pages.
Once the list of subject links have been created, use one of the Selected subject templates from further to format each of the subject sub-pages.
This template calls /box-header and /box-footer for its color styles and closing, these must be present in your portal design for it to work correctly.

Example

To see a real time example, see what links here (the list of pages that currently transclude the {{Random portal component}} template).

|titleforeground = #ffe247
|titlebackground = #A9A9A9
