User:FlightTime/Template:Archive basics/doc

This template and OneClickArchiver work with archives that end with a number. It does not work with archives that do not end in a number (e.g. archives organized by year/month).


Basic markup

edit

Archive basics requires User:FlightTime/OneClickArchiver or equal.

{{User:FlightTime/Template:Archive basics
|archive = /Archive %(counter)d
|counter = 1
|headerlevel = 2
|maxarchivesize = 150K
|archiveheader = {{tan}}
}}


Examples

edit

Example 1:

{{Archive basics
|archive = User talk:Username/Archive %(counter)d
|counter = 4
}}

Example 2 if you want to cut & paste for numbered archives:

{{Archive basics
|archive = {{SAFESUBST:#titleparts:{{SAFESUBST:FULLPAGENAME}}}}/Archive %(counter)d
|counter = 1
}}

Because en:User:Equazcion/OneClickArchiver.js is extremely sensitive for case and spaces and some people haven't yet upgraded to the version that doesn't care about case and spacing, there is a shortcut template to make it even easier for you to apply this. Simply change the number "1" to whatever number you want to start with for a counter number:

{{SAFESUBST:Oca|1}}


Parameters
