Hi Frank, You could start with an easier version. For example, do the following: 1) In you wiki, search for *Template:Note* 2) Presumably that template doesn't exist, so create it and add the following, then save: <span style="border:1px; border-style:solid; border-radius: 7px; border-color:#ddffdd; background-color:#f2fff2; padding:0.1em; margin:0.1em; display: inline-block;">[[File:Bulbgraph.png|18px|Note|link=]]&nbsp;'''Note:'''&nbsp;&nbsp;{{{1|}}}</span><noinclude> == Usage == Lightbulb Note: <pre><nowiki> {{Note|Your note text}} </nowiki></pre> </noinclude> 3) The only new thing you'll need is the image, you can download it here <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/File:Bulbgraph.png> and as long as you upload it to your wiki with the same name, it should work fine. 4) Try your new template out by inserting it on a new page with *{{Note|This is Frank's template test.}}* Notes: * Remember, the template namespace is special so the call above (/{{Note|This is Frank's template test.}}/) is the same as *{{Template:Note|This is Frank's template test.}}* * You can "transclude" any page into any other with the following *{{:Some page}}*, this works for the Main namespace, for others, you need to use the namespace *{{Help:Info page}}* * The <noinclude> tag just says, don't copy this part over as a part of the template, but it can be used to show stuff on the page * The example above has one "input" to the template that is un-named {{{1}}}, the pipe after just says, if there isn't anything passed through, just leave it blank, otherwise it would actually pass through {{{1}}} if the user didn't pass anything. * You can play with named values {{{color|}}} & {{{text|}}}, etc. Regards, Bryan On Mon, Jan 28, 2019 at 12:24 AM Frank Rueter | OHUfx &lt;frank(a)ohufx.com <mailto:frank@ohufx.com>> wrote: Thanks a lot Manuela! I will look at defining the simple css classes required to make those examples work. I was just under the impression that these would already exist in the default install. Will give it a go, thanks again! frank On 28/01/19 8:42 PM, Manuela wrote: css-classes used, might define a padding-right: 0.5em; _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
