This template creates a page banner that you can include on portal pages, for example. You can see an example here in the Helpdesk on the topic pages, e.g, quality assurance.

Importing the template

The import file is included in the archive file HW-banner.zip. Unpack the zip file first.

On the page Special:Import follow these steps:

Template Banner step1.png
  1. Select file and choose HW-banner.xml.
  2. Enter an Interwiki prefix. Since this field is required, simply add hw (for hallowelt).
    Template Banner step2.png
  3. Keep the selection Import to default locations.
  4. Click Sie Upload file... .

The form-based template is now available in your wiki.

Important! The input fields for the template parameters are usually not automatically available after importing the template to your wiki . You have to open the imported template file and make an edit (e.g., add a space and then save the page) to activate the template data functionality. The input fields should now be displayed correctly when you use the template on a page.


Pages included in the import

The xml import creates the following files in your wiki:

  • Template:Banner
  • Template:Banner/styles.css
