Overview[edit source]
Outputs an icon in svg and a link to the given localized page with an optional alternate display name.
Output will be:
<icon> <pagename>
- Both icon and page name will be hyperlinked to first parameter as the pagename
- Icon should be
[[File:<pagename>.svg]]
if the svg file exists, otherwise the .png.- The .svg should be both light and dark theme compatible (WIP)
- It's possible CSS may be used to automatically invert colors, precluding the need for the icon to be theme-compatible
- The .png should at least be default theme compatible (light)
- If neither the .svg nor the .png exist, the icon will not be added
- The .svg should be both light and dark theme compatible (WIP)
- If the first parameter (name) is a hero name in english, it will automatically use the <hero>_MM.png file
- Otherwise, if the file name is different to the page name (do not use this in excess), the alt_file_name parameter will need to be used
Examples[edit source]
In its simplest form: {{PageRef|Lash}}
Lash
Example where the icon doesn't exist: {{PageRef|Amber Hand}}
Amber Hand
Using alt_name: {{PageRef|Lash|alt_name=Jacob}}
Jacob
Using alt_link (hover the link to see): {{PageRef|Lash|alt_link=Cold Front}}
Lash
Using alt_file_name: {{PageRef|Lash|alt_file_name=Cold Front}}
Lash
Using them all together, note that the first parameter is no longer used and therefore not needed:
{{PageRef|alt_name=Cold Front|alt_link=Cold Front|alt_file_name=Cold Front}}
Cold Front
Note: Instead of repeated use of alt_file_name, it is recommended to create a redirect at [[<first_parameter>.png]] to [[<alt_file_name>.png]], allowing the use of the simplest form of PageRef, making it much easier to reference in the future.
