Template:Find page text/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wrapper for findpagetext function in Module:String2.

Template:Find page text returns the position of a piece of text in the wikitext source of a page.

Parameters

[edit]

The template takes up to four parameters:

  • |1= or |text= is the text to be searched for.
  • Optional parameter |title= is the page title, defaults to the current page.
  • Optional parameter |plain= is either true for a plain search (default), or false for a Lua pattern search.
  • Optional parameter |nomatch= is the value returned when no match is found; default is nothing.

Examples

[edit]

The search is case-sensitive, so Lua pattern matching is needed to find river or River. The last example finds {{coord or {{Coord. The penultimate example finds a wiki-link.
