This button is versatile! It can be used most any which ways you need it to, but the default is really straight forward. You start by calling the button like {{Button}}, then piping each attribute afterwards, |1=link, |2=text, and so on. You must call the first four arguments, the rest are for extra control.
Default button
{{Button|1=http://directory.mcgilleus.ca|2=Default button appearance|3=fas fa-folder|4=#C3423F}}
Default attributes are: Internal link, large button, float left, white text.
Additional attributes can be added at will, as many or few in any order you'd like.
Attributes
Options 1 - 4 are necessary, 5-9 offer options
- 1 = Page title or Link (Link requires #5)
- 2 = Button text
- 3 = FontAwesome Icon
- 4 = Button Color
- ---
- 5 = internal/external (optional, external default)
- 6 = text color (optional, white default)
- 7 = Float Button position, left or right (optional, no float by default)
- 8 = Button size, small or large (optional, large default)
- 9 = Icon placement, ileft or iright (optional, default ileft)
- 1 = Page title or Link (Link requires #5)
5 Type of link
|
Default the link is presumed to be external (meaning a page not on the wiki). 5 is therefore not necessary for this. |
If you want it to got to a page on the wiki, you must specify that |
6 Text Color
If you'd like to change the link color, using either words, hex, or rgba(), set 6=color of choice.
{{Button|...|6=Crimson}}
Default the text is white, 6= is not necessary for this case.
7 Button position
If you want the button to float to the right of the page, use 7=right.
{{Button|...|7=right}}
Additionally, if you want it to float=left (meaning that all other objects, headers included, will stay to the right of the block), you can specity 7=left.
8 Button size
You can make the button teeny, 8=small.
{{Button|...|8=small}}
9 Icon placement
The icon can be on the right side as well.
{{Button|...|9=iright}}
