((POTD/(({1))}|portal layout))

More selected pictures

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Template for displaying POTD on subpages of portals. If you are creating a new portal, consider using Template:Portal pictures instead.

This template greatly simplifies the process compared to the common pattern of using a layout template for selected/featured pictures on a portal. Usual pattern requires a lot of fields to be filled in, including a caption. A picture of the day already has all needed information. The only input needed is the date.

Variants

((Portal POTD/Featured picture)) – uses "Featured picture" subpage.

Usage

((Portal POTD|YYYY-MM-DD))

To override the footer, use parameter |more=:

((Portal POTD|YYYY-MM-DD|more=footer))

To find appropriate pictures, use search box below, from ((POTD subpage search box)):

Parameters

|1=: Date of the picture of the day in YYYY-MM-DD format. This should be the subpage name of Template:POTD.
|more=: Wikitext for the footer. For example, |more=[[Portal:Sports/Selected picture|More selected pictures...]]. Optional. Defaults to [[Portal:((ROOTPAGENAME))/Selected picture|More selected pictures]].
|more=no: Special value of parameter |more= to not show the footer.
