| This is a documentation subpage for Template:BDT. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "৳", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Bangladeshi taka article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.
Usage
{{BDT|value}}
Example:
{{BDT}}→ ৳{{BDT|123.45}}→ ৳123.45
Link
The parameter |link=yes may be used to link ৳ to the article Bangladeshi taka. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.
Example:
{{BDT|123.45|link=yes}}→ ৳123.45
Inflation calculation
Do not assume that using this template will mean that a calculated value is "current", "as of 2025", "as of 2024" or even necessarily "recent". Do not use {{CURRENTYEAR}} to refer to calculated value, instead {{Inflation-year|BD}} may be used. See also MOS:REALTIME. |
The template supports inflation calculation, by way of {{Inflation}}. If the second parameter is used, to specify a year, and this year is within a certain range of available inflation data (specifically, if 1986 ≤ year < 2014), the equivalent value represented in 2014 taka will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.
Examples:
{{BDT|100|1985}}→ ৳100{{BDT|100|1986}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳557.17 in 2014){{BDT|100|1990}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳419.47 in 2014){{BDT|100|1990|link=yes}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳419.47 in 2014){{BDT|100|2013}}→ ৳100 (equivalent to ৳106.99 in 2014){{BDT|100|2014}}→ ৳100{{BDT|100|2025}}→ ৳100{{BDT|100|2026}}→ ৳100
Additional parameter |about=yes will cause the template to calculate to the nearest taka (instead of the nearest poisha), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer. These parameters may be combined.
Examples:
{{BDT|10|1935}}→ ৳10{{BDT|10|1935|round=0}}→ ৳10{{BDT|10|1935|about=yes}}→ ৳10{{BDT|1000|1935|round=2}}→ ৳1,000{{BDT|1000|1935|round=-2}}→ ৳1,000{{BDT|1000|1935|round=-2|about=yes}}→ ৳1,000
