I have a wiki about a writer's novels. Wikipedia has a nice template called
Template:Infobox Book
But I can't figure out how to use that template in my wiki. I apparently has some parser functions. Is it even possible to simply copy the source code for this template? I can't find it.
You need to install the ParserFunctions extension http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions. Once you do that, you should be able to copy the the source code from the Infobox Book to a template on your wiki.
Well, I installed that extension and it got *closer*, but still is weird:
http://cl49.pynchonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=The_Crying_of_Lot_49
Link to the template:
http://cl49.pynchonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_Book
So if anyone can get me the rest of the way....
Thanks so far!
