Template:Floating link/sandbox
[[Template:Floating link/sandbox/{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]
 | This is the template sandbox page for Template:Floating link (diff). |
Usage
[edit]This template creates a piped link to a subpage that hovers or 'floats' in the top right corner of the page it is used on, in the same place as {{coord}}. Due to this positioning, it should not be used on pages using {{coord}} as the two templates will overlap.
{{Floatinglink|1=SubPage|2=TextToDisplay}}
If you want to link to a page other than a subpage, use fullpath=y and the first parameter will be treated as the full path.
If you would like to specify a CSS class for the span, use class= (i.e. |class=sysop-show).
Example
[edit]{{Floatinglink|1=doc|2=Documentation}}
Will create '[[/doc|Documentation]]' floating in the top right hand corner.
{{Floatinglink|1=Wikipedia:Template documentation|2=Documentation|fullpath=y}}
Will create '[[Wikipedia:Template documentation|Documentation]]' floating in the top right hand corner.
