Multiple Links

Functions/Features

This template produces a link in internal link style and also a "hidden external link", to allow it to be found by Special:Linksearch//docs.joomla.org/Special:Linksearch, which, unlike Special:Whatlinkshere//docs.joomla.org/Special:Whatlinkshere, is specific for the target section. This backlink requires that the extension Special:Linksearch//docs.joomla.org/Special:Linksearch has been installed, which is the case on Joomla! Documentation.

Usage

• {{ml|target_page|optional_anchor|optional_label}}

Do not put "#" at the start of the anchor.

Examples

• {{ml|Help:Link}} gives Help:Link//docs.joomla.org/JHelp:Link
• {{ml|Help:Link|Section linking (anchors)}} gives Help:Link#Section linking (anchors)//docs.joomla.org/JHelp:Link#Section_linking_.28anchors.29
• {{ml|Help:Link||label}} gives label//docs.joomla.org/JHelp:Link
• {{ml|Help:Link|Section linking (anchors)|label}} gives label//docs.joomla.org/JHelp:Link#Section_linking_.28anchors.29
• {{ml|a}} gives A//docs.joomla.org/A

Wrong:

• {{ml|:a}} gives [[

a]]//docs.joomla.org/A

• Linksearch with target page "Help:Link" - gives pairs of source page and full target
• Linksearch with as target the sections of "Help:Link" starting with "S" - ditto

Compare:

• Special:Whatlinkshere/Help:Link - no indication of, or selection by, target section

Known Issues

Undefined parameter giving odd result:

• {{ml|a:{{{2}}}}} gives [[A:{{{2}}}]]//docs.joomla.org{{localurl:A:{{{2}}}}}
• substituted (first part): [[A:{{{2}}}]]

Compare:

• {{subst:ml|a:b}} gives A:b
