Usage

This template is useful for user signatures to circumvent SUBST.

Usage: in Special:Preferences in the Signature field, for example:

{{Nosubst|User:Example/Signature}}

Which becomes:

{{SUBST:Nosubst|User:Example/Signature}}

Help

If you'd like a signature that is dynamically updated, i.e., one that displays every signature you've ever left on the wiki as your current signature, here's how:

  1. Create a subpage for your signature. You can use mine as an example: User:Sebastian_Panache/sig
    NOTE: Please don't overwrite it: Copy the code to your own subpage.
  2. Go to your "My preferences" page (near the top right of your screen), and in the "Signature" entry box add {{SUBST:nosubst|User:YourUsername/sig}}, inserting your own usernname, of course.
  3. Tick the "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" checkbox just below it, and you're done!
  4. Use the 4-tildes or signature button (File:Button sig.png) to use your saved signature in talk page messages.
