- Under construction
While I'm not a professional coder by any means, I have an expert grip on WikiSyntax, and I'd like to help newbies & long-time contributors alike with any issues they come across, hence this page. Most of you know basic syntax, but very little besides me can use ParserFunctions & DPL successfully, which I plan writing about here eventually.
You may ask a specific question on the talk page, in chat, my talk page (if something comes up), or basically anywhere, and I'll add it here if I think other people might ask the same question.
Please see these help pages before asking me your question, as these cover the basics:
Parser Functions
- Under construction
A parser function is a special template-based construction. Instead of {{name}}, the construction is {{#name:}}, with different syntax after the colon depending on each function. They are used for dynamic results in templates. 8 total are installed in a collective extension on this wiki, but we only have use for half of them:
- {{#expr}}
- {{#if}}
- {{#ifeq}}
- {{#ifexist}}
- {{#ifexpr}}
- {{#switch}}
- {{#time}}
- {{#rel2abs}}
