Template:Collapsible option/doc
| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Collapsible option. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
The {{collapsible option}} template gives a standardised message for transclusion on template pages whose templates include a state parameter (through which their collapsibility may be managed).
It may be used on either the template page itself (wrapped within <noinclude></noinclude> tags), or on the template's {{documentation subpage}}.
Indicating optional use of state name
If, in a template where {{collapsible option}} has been transcluded, that template's state parameter has been enabled such that it need not be named when the template is calledTemplate:Spaced ndashi.e., the state parameter includes {{{1| }}}, e.g.:
|state = {{{state|{{{1|}}}}}}- or
|state = {{{state|{{{1|<noinclude>expanded</noinclude>}}}}}}- etc
then...
{{collapsible option |statename=optional}}
...removes the instances of |state= from the {{collapsible option}} message, meaning it will appear as:
Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse
To set this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:
|state=collapsed:{{Collapsible option|state=collapsed}}to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar|state=expanded:{{Collapsible option|state=expanded}}to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible|state=autocollapse:{{Collapsible option|state=autocollapse}}
If the |state= parameter in the template on this page is not set, the template's initial visibility is taken from the |default= parameter in the Collapsible option template. For the template on this page, that currently evaluates to autocollapse.
Changing default
To change the state default from "autocollapse", use either "collapsed" or "expanded", as in the following:
{{collapsible option |state=collapsed}}
This will appear as:
Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse
To set this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:
|state=collapsed:{{Collapsible option|state=collapsed}}to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar|state=expanded:{{Collapsible option|state=expanded}}to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible|state=autocollapse:{{Collapsible option|state=autocollapse}}
If the |state= parameter in the template on this page is not set, the template's initial visibility is taken from the |default= parameter in the Collapsible option template. For the template on this page, that currently evaluates to autocollapse.
