మూస:Related portals/doc

Purpose

This template simplifies the creation and maintenance of the "Related portals" box within portal pages. It creates a line of 1 to 10 clickable links to related portals.

Consider using the template {{Related portals2}} instead; this is easier to use, and creates a "Related portals" section that scales itself neatly to the available screen space, even on mobile devices.

Usage

• portalcount - Required; the number of portal links in the line. The template supports up to 10, but this will be too many for users with a narrow monitor.
• size - Optional; the size of each portal image. This defaults to 60x60px which seems about right.
• These must be followed by pairs of unnamed parameters:
  • An image name, with no "File:" or "Image:" prefix. Optional; if blank then a default image will be used.
  • The name of the portal to be linked to, with no "Portal:" prefix.

If the portal name is too long to display neatly, then consider creating a redirect from a shorter name to the portal page, and using that shorter name in the list passed to this template.

Example

{{Related portals|portalcount=5

| Circle of spam.svg                        | Computer security

}}
