Template:If mobile/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:If mobile.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

The pages listed in this category are templates.

This page is part of OODA WIKI's administration and not part of the encyclopedia.

Further template category notes

This category contains pages in the template namespace. It should not be used to categorize articles or pages in other namespaces.

To add a template to this category:

If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add
[[Template:If mobile/doc]]
to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add
<noinclude>[[Template:If mobile/doc]]</noinclude>
to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

This category is an index of templates which use TemplateStyles. It is automatically populated by {{Uses TemplateStyles}}.

This template detects whether it is being used on the mobile version of OODA WIKI (en.m.OODA WIKI.org), and displays different content accordingly. This should however NOT be relied upon. For instance; both versions of content will generally show up in things like search engines. You should generally AVOID using this template. If you need to adapt the layout of a page for mobile, then please use TemplateStyles and CSS.

Rationale

Some features work differently on the mobile website, such as slideshow galleries appearing as ordinary galleries. This template allows better presentation of such content, by e.g. having a "Slideshow" heading when a slideshow is shown, and a "Gallery" heading when a regular gallery is shown.

Usage

{{If mobile|content for mobile website|content for desktop website}}

By default, ‎<span>...‎</span> tags are used to wrap the specified content. A different tag may be specified using |tag=

E.g. |tag=div can be used if the content contains block-level elements.

Example

Normal usage

{{If mobile|A mobile user you are!|You are looking at the desktop site}}
