Unwanted subpages
editAs usual, the template page transcludes {{documentation}}, so has links to the usual template subpages /sandbox and /testcases. They are, of course, being used as general sandboxes by confused editors. I don't see an easy way to remove those links from the template page, but perhaps it doesn't matter too much. -- John of Reading (talk) 21:41, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
- Two and a half years on, I've learned enough template hackery to do this. See also Template talk:Documentation#Option to hide the testcases/sandbox links?.-- John of Reading (talk) 10:07, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- @John of Reading: That's pretty hacky. :^) I'm about to merge changes to {{documentation}} which will break this template's expectation. I might suggest using TemplateStyles instead from within the documentation subpage (with onlyincludes) to hide what will be
.documentation-metadatafor the bottom box and.documentation-startbox .mw-editsection-likefor the edit links at the top. --Izno (talk) 02:44, 18 November 2020 (UTC)- @Izno: How the years fly past! Please remove any hackery that is going to stop working, and we'll take it from there. I haven't done any complex template work recently. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:34, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- John of Reading, now fixed with some clever but basically supported hackery. :) --Izno (talk) 13:10, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Izno: Thank you - I'll see you back here in another six years! -- John of Reading (talk) 15:33, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

More parameters to allow customization and tweaked image size—implemented in Template:My sandbox/sandbox. Comparison can be seen at Template:My sandbox/testcases. —andrybak (talk) 20:58, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
