This is a documentation subpage for Template:Image.
It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template allows the creation of a flexible gallery by drawing a floating box around each image. The first variable should be the image name, and the second the caption. If you need to link to a different page or an external link, just add an additional variable called {{{link}}}. Main headings (those created with ==) will bookend the floating gallery, but if you're using this template inside of a section and need to include text after it, make sure to include CSS to keep the subsequent section from being displaced (by default, just use a <br /> tag). This code:
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages|link=Main Page}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
<br style="clear:both;"/>
Creates this gallery:
Placeholders
To insert a text placeholder into the gallery, include a parameter called {{{ph}}} and enter the text of the placeholder in the nest argument. The {{{ph}}} parameter can actually be placed anywhere in the template, but putting it first makes it easier to transform a gallery into an index page through find-and-replace.
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|ph=1|Placeholder|Placeholder}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
<br style="clear:both;"/>
Index links
To link images in a gallery directly to their transcription in the Page namespace (rather than the default File namespace), include a parameter called {{{page}}}. Again, best practice is to place it as the first argument.
{{image|page=1|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|page=1|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|page=1|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|page=1|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
{{image|page=1|Noscans.png|Blank pages}}
<br style="clear:both;"/>
