Template:Shortcut

Template documentation

This documentation is transcluded from Template:Shortcut/doc.

To discuss this template as a whole, please see JDOC:WTP. If you wish to discuss general wordings, rather than the wording or formatting of this specific template, don't post here, or else what you say will probably go unnoticed.

This template is primarily used on the Joomla! Documentation guideline and policy pages to show the shortest alias of a given page. For example, [[JEDL]] redirects to [[Joomla! Electronic Documentation Licence]]. The point of this template is not to list every single redirect (indeed, that's what Special:Whatlinkshere is for); for any given page, it should list only one or two common and easily-remembered redirects.

Don't use this template on other templates, e.g. to state that the shortcut to [[Template:Foo]] is in fact {{Foo}}. There's no need to state the obvious like that, by default every template uses its own name as a shortcut for transclusion.

This template can take up to five shortcuts as parameters. The first parameter can be linked or unlinked; the remaining parameters must be unlinked.
