Well of course they are avaible to everyone :-) I already made Assembly, buy I'll certainly do the other templates needed, I only have to change the name of the subcategory... Üc R. Tärfâ (talk) 01:29, 6 July 2012 (CDT)
What is the conversion rate for Template:Lb? (Or between USD and Bent and Louis) Dient (talk) 19:37, 8 July 2012 (CDT)
- $1.50 is one louis, or 60 bence.--AD (talk) 19:40, 8 July 2012 (CDT)
Updated Template:Lb! :D Use it as {{Lb|AmountinUSDHere}}--$20 = 13¤20. Dient (talk) 21:11, 9 July 2012 (CDT)
- Great! Thanks! That makes sense - I was making it needlessly complicated by having it be two variables.--AD (talk) 21:13, 9 July 2012 (CDT)
Check Cosa - I've dummy ran that navbar and made it linkable to the pages we have up so far. edit- keep forgetting the 4 squiggles Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:32, 11 July 2012 (CDT)
- Updated your template. It was a good idea, it just would have been squashed on the side, is all.--AD (talk) 07:33, 11 July 2012 (CDT)
Go ahead and lay it on me! (The other challenge I mean.) Dient (talk) 08:45, 10 July 2012 (CDT)
- There's probably some easy solution I never knew, but I would like if the name templates auto-substed in, i.e. if using Fiovă actually replaced the template with the word, but without people having to learn and use subst with it.--AD (talk) 16:01, 10 July 2012 (CDT)
- This looks somewhat promising. I'll continue to dig around, but it seems as though you could create a string function that replaces Fiova with Fiovă (and all the other Talossan names with diacritics) automatically whenever the edit is saved. It may have to be exported to each page, however. Dient (talk) 13:38, 12 July 2012 (CDT)
- Hm, which of these functions did you want to use? #replace would run into the same order of operations problem I already encountered - if you try to define {{fio}} as {{subst:fio2}}, where {{fio2}}'s contents are Fiovă, then the wiki refuses to begin what could be an endless series of hops, and will only render {{subst:fio}} on the page.--AD (talk) 18:05, 12 July 2012 (CDT)
- This is what I was thinking of: {{#replace:Fiova|o|ô|a|â}} Dient (talk) 18:54, 12 July 2012 (CDT)

- Yes, I will arrange it.--AD (talk) 18:05, 12 July 2012 (CDT)
