Module:Reply to
Appearance
This template is used on 64000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or /testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This module is rated as beta, and is ready for widespread use. It is still new and should be used with some caution to ensure the results are as expected. |
This module is used by {{Reply to}} to trigger a notification to one or several registered user(s) you are replying to in a discussion.
Usage from wikitext
[सम्पादन]This module cannot be used directly from wikitext. Please use the {{Reply to}} template instead.
Usage within templates
[सम्पादन]{{#invoke:Reply to|replyto|<noinclude>example=example name</noinclude>|max=maximum number of names}}
- The
|example=
parameter sets the name that will show when the template page is viewed. This parameter should be surrounded by<noinclude>...</noinclude>
so that it is not transcluded with the parent template, and the parent template will show an error message if no names are specified. - The
|max=
parameter sets the maximum number of names that the template will accept. If not specified, it defaults to 50 (which is the maximum number that Echo currently supports as of August 2015[update]. If this number of names is exceeded, the parent template will return an error message.
