Equals sign error[edit]

If you try to include an external link with an equals sign (=) in it, it won't display.

This will display:{{hlist|[https://archive.org/details/softline_magazine]}}
- - [1]
This will not:{{hlist|[https://archive.org/details/softline_magazine?sort=week]}}

@TarkusAB: This is expected behaviour, see Help:Template#Hints and workarounds, second bullet. You should do this:

{{hlist|1=[https://archive.org/details/softline_magazine?sort=week]}} →
- [2]

class=inline not working outside demo[edit]

Using |class=inline works on the doc page, but doesn't in real life. The difference is whether {{markup}} is used - compare

Markup	Renders as
Giant planets ({{hlist\|class=inline\|[[Jupiter\|J]]\|[[Saturn\|S]]\|[[Uranus\|U]]\|[[Neptune\|N]]}}).	Giant planets ( J S U N ).

with

Giant planets ({{hlist|class=inline|[[Jupiter|J]]|[[Saturn|S]]|[[Uranus|U]]|[[Neptune|N]]}}).

Giant planets (

J
S
U
N

).

--Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:21, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. You need to wrap the whole line in a block element ({{markup}} uses <td>...</td>) in order to "kill" the implicit <p>...</p>, such as:

Giant planets (

J
S
U
N

).

It's not optimal. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 16:04, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bull?[edit]

I find the mid dots rather small for some displays and so I would like them to be changed to the slightly larger • character. However, I expect that such a global change might not go down too well. Could we instead add some CSS so that we can say something like {{hlist |class=inline,bull | ...?

See the difference by comparing my old userpage navbar —

with the updated version — GhostInTheMachine • Talk • All • Help ... — GhostInTheMachine ^{talk to me} 11:23, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No interest? Fixed it for me by adding:

mw.util.addCSS('.hlist li::after {content: " • " !important;} .hlist li:last-child::after {content: none !important;}');

to my local user script — GhostInTheMachine ^{talk to me} 17:39, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
