Template:Noprint/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

This template adds semantic tags to exclude selected text from an article when it is rendered into a digital document such as a PDF or DjVu file, or printed, either through the "Printable version" or the "Create a book" links on the side bar. It is used to hide elements that make no sense in print such as "Click the name of a town on the map for more details".

Where possible you can also use class="noprint" to any HTML block element, or span class="noprint" to an inline element, in order to hide that content from printing. This template is actually a shorthand for the first option, and also applies {{trim}} to remove any extraneous whitespace from around it.

  • DO NOT use this on large sections that include headings (==This is a heading==). This will cause the edit link next to the heading to disappear.

Examples

[edit]
Code Result
text to show {{noprint|text to be hidden}} more text to show text to show
text to be hidden

text to show {{noprint|1=text to be hidden with an equals = sign in it }} more text to show text to show
text to be hidden with an equals = sign in it
more text to show

Note the use of the explicitly named positional parameter when the text contains an equals sign.
